Zippz next to a zip tie. Classic.
-
Before they used to zip tie it both ways. Cutting costs?
I wanted to take it off as soon as I left baggage claim since it screamed look at me I have a unloaded gun in my bag. I came prepared by putting a knife in the outer pocket. I was about to cut it off when I realized it was loose. So I just slipped it off.

Running through thunderstorms to get some Pecan Lodge. Yes, it was worth the wait. Brisket is delicious. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180503/f8067c9c8848a445accfce747effdbfc.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180503/3b506741e8b21e15dc7db6ade7c7261b.jpg)

More food from this morning, we were both soaked by the time we got here.

In Vegas, Mrs.oil is driving and as we're heading to the hotel, I'm loading my mags. Besides being on the toilet, having an unloaded gun is the 2nd most vulnerable feeling. I actually load only 2 rounds in the 1st mag and then insert and chamber. Then load the rest of the spare mag, swap mags and finish the other. This way, I got at least 2 rounds. Call it paranoia.

glad you guys got to go
that place is awesome!
one of the main reasons i want to go back to DFW is to eat there again

6th floor museum, the Dealey plaza and the grassy knoll.
-
On the way here, guy in fro t of me at TSA got stopped for having blanks in his bag, he was military and forgot they were in it.
I forgot I had a knife in my bag, they took it from me and let me on my way.
Somehow I don’t think he was getting off that easy.

Crazy, No?
When you see it in person, turkey shoot.
Especially from the knoll.
But the whole place is not very big and distances are relatively short.
Even from the Depository.
Keep the reports coming guys! :shaka:

It surprised me how small is is, the shots were only 70yds give or take, easy for any novice shooter. A lot,of things don’t add up and even the museum acknowledges some of them.

that's what she said

I was shocked how much the museum talks about alternative theories

Only guys in Aloha shirts. Nice.

A few odds and ends....
My carry piece, Glock 43 in a Comptac holster.

Legal to carry almost anywhere, to include unsecured government buildings and universities, and private businesses that don't have a 30.06 (No CCW) or 30.07(No open carry) signs. Those signs are pretty big.

Using the DART rail and busses to get around $25 weekly pass is pretty cheap. Except I lost a my card so had to buy another one. Feels fairly safe and clean.

And using the Limebikes to get around. Just $1 for 30 minutes and you just leave them on the sidewalk when you're done. More convenient to use than Biki. There's 3 bike sharing companies that I've seen here.

Also the free trolly that loops around downtown. Over 100 years old and still running. Lots of different eateries in the area.

Yesterday we went to the 6th floor museum which was an old book storage building where Lee Havey Oswald shot JFK from the 6th floor window. Very good vantage point in the window and shot was about 75 yards as marked with an X on the road. Also the famous grassy knoll.

And finally tonights dinner at Off the Bone BBQ. We rode the Limebikes about a mile up the street. The ribs were pretty good, but the briskett was dry. Was okay but Pecan Lodge was way better.

Unfortunately we couldn't get to the National Video Game Museum cause it's 25 miles away and off public transportation. Very disappointed. Dallas is okay, but not an exciting town and don't plan on being back here unless there's something big going on. Plan on going to TOPGOLF tomorrow to check it out!

Trainers updates are in the instructors chat

you're pretty much ruined on BBQ if you are going to compare everything to pecan lodge...
I think they are planning on building topgolf (or something like it) at ala wai golf course

This was 30 minutes from my Texas house, but I couldn't get back over there again to check it out with my FFL/SOT. Couple buddies went, and I hear it was a great time!
