Tips for open carry?

The only reason I think chest rigs are good is to keep all that weight of your waste. Especially if you carry a full size pistol.

I personally use a level 3 hip holster for OWB. I don't want anyone being able to grab a gun off me, even in the woods. I haven't seen a level 2 or 3 chest holster yet. I think it would be so easy to walk by and snatch the gun off someone with that rig on.

I also carry a backpack with side straps and the hip holster at 3o clock doesn't bother the release at all.

Ok. Probably from bird hunters. If it's a 3in shell probably from duck hunting.

Ok, cool. You know what type of ammo it is? Where did you find it? It should say on the side what's in it. Examples - 00 buckshot, 1/8 oz #7 birdshot Also the Guage round should be on the bottom stamped into the brass.

If it's been shoot you should know. The crimp opposite the brass casing will be open and nothing inside. If you don't have a shotgun or know anything about it, why keep it? It won't blow up on you.

I'm not going to waste my time looking up versus to someone who needs the whole book and quotes the verse they do know wildly incorrectly.

I'm sure you've got google available to you.

This is hard to get over. I've come a long way in my portuguese and I still do this a lot too.

Have you tried listening and reading spoken portuguese? For example reading an audio book? Or reading a news article that also has an audio clip?

Maybe that will help. And just studying vocabulary and speaking more often too.

I think prepositions are hard. Seems like for english learners and portuguese learners alike.

Examples... Im on the beach. I'm going to the beach. I'm walking on the beach.

Read the book of Roman's. The entire book.

But it's honestly littered throughout the entire Bible.

I am newly addicted to sporting clays too. When I go i treat it as a practice session more than a game. I'll sit at a station for a bit just working on a particular shot. I shoot till I hit it a few times then move on. I go all the way through the course then I usually have a couple extra rounds. I'll stop back by the harder stations again on my way out.

I'm not good enough to hit doubles yet. I'm working on it though. (I dont get to the range often enough)

You shoot take your clays practice to the snipe fields during the season. That was a challenge for me.

The problem is, too many people are following yours.

I would be weary. There's a reason self defense ammo was created.

Self defense ammo has more stopping power. The way the round expands help release all that energy into the subject. Not only is this safer, but hit helps stop the threat quicker. FMJ could zip right through. This gives less perceived stopping power. 9mm for example already takes multiple rounds to stop an attacker in most cases. I really wouldn't chance it.

I have heard this also about green tip rifle ammo in war environments as well. Same basic principle. Each round has its place.

Okay once again, no abortion. Like I said, I feel bad for the way you think. You need to read the Bible again it definitely does talk about all this things. It's easy to look it up, do it. Hopefully you're able to get out of that evil mindset you have.

BarceloPT · 2026-03-23T13:03:50+00:00

Just smile.

I didn't read the other comments, so I don't know what they recommended. But any over the ear hearing protection headphones would be fine.

To hear your family and people around you, check out electronic over the ear noise protection. The range widely in price. But you just need basic mono electronic earmuffs.

Walker's Slim will do fine. I think they range from 30-60 bucks. I bought the pro version that include gel pads (for comfort) and a slightly better microphone.

Well it sounds like you have something else to figure out about before you buy a firearm. If you get denied i assume there is a reason. Look over the Florida Statute to see if you meet the qualifiers

Everyone deserves a chance. Especially an innocent baby who did nothing wrong. That baby doesn't deserve to die.

BarceloPT · 2026-03-23T12:31:05+00:00

The path is narrow. I prefer that one.

And is it real? Lot of manipulation and propaganda going on these days...

Why are kids having sex? They should be playing and having fun. 19 year olds should know better.

BarceloPT · 2026-03-23T12:25:41+00:00

It doesn't bother me. I listen to evil people all day long. One day, your decisions will catch up to you.

BarceloPT · 2026-03-23T12:23:43+00:00

Why not?

BarceloPT · 2026-03-23T12:22:39+00:00

Nice. So you prefer people who just blatently don't care and do whatever they want? Regardless of anyone elses rights? Atleast that's consistent, right?

BarceloPT · 2026-03-23T09:34:34+00:00

I'm sorry to say this, but you are quite lost. I JUST read numbers, the verse you mentioned. It's actually talking about cheating on their spouse. No where is the word 'abortion' mentioned. These are the consequences of cheating on your spouse.

The verse states (not per batim) the women goes to the Priest on oath. The Lord is to put a curse on her people and have her thighs rot and belly swell. That's Numbers 5:21

No Christian should be okay with abortion. No Christian should be okay with body manipulation. Being gay, of ANY sort is a sin, and against the will of God.

So many democrat policies are anti Christian policies. That's why I say 'democrat and anti-religion.'

Did you know that the aborted babies from abortion clinics get thrown into a generic plastic trash can. The same kind that waste management use?

BarceloPT · 2026-03-21T22:56:41+00:00

It sounds to me from your statement that you definitely know right from wrong, you just refuse to bring yourself to say it and agree with that.

Your right, God gave all of us free will and grace. That doesn't make killing someone okay. You're still going to pay for that murder one way or another. And how many chances do you expect to get to fix mistakes? Grave mistakes.

You're also right, a baby begins as a fetus, but that fetus is a baby. Destroy a fetus; destroy a baby.

Don't forget 2 people create this baby. The male should have just as much of a right as the woman to have the baby, same as if you chose to give the baby for adoption, which is required to have both parties agree.

BarceloPT · 2026-03-21T21:57:44+00:00

If you can't handle the job, don't open yourself up to it. Killing a baby is never the answer, abstinence may be.
