      Broad Ripple art fair security gate?

      We are heading to the art fair and wondered if we will be searched at the gate. Metal detectors? Bag searches? It says "no weapon" so are they even anti pocket-knife? If anyone has been there in recent years, I would appreciate feedback. The event says all bags are "subject to search" but I...

      Free: Lead radiology apron

      I don't know if this is of use to anyone, but I'm cleaning out my vet clinic after selling the business. One of the radiology gowns is no longer useful because the ties are broken. I didn't know if anyone wanted to make use of the lead? It can be picked up by appointment Wednesday Dec 15 if...

      Chad Butts: anyone heard of him?

      I've been thinking about getting an NRA basic pistol instructor rating. One course being taught in Indy this year is taught by someone named Chad Butts. He lists his business as a private investigator service and has several instructor ratings. I'm not able to find much about his instructor...

      3-gun : basic list of recommended gear?

      A friend of mine has been competing in 3-gun for a couple of years now. She invited me to join her for the match in Wabash Aug 1 and 2, so off I go. I'll bring my own pistol and AR, and use her shotgun (I'll maybe take my pump shotgun along for a backup but I understand it's far from ideal for...

      Next up: pet food?

      I expect most people in this forum already carry an excess stock of pet food, if you have pets. If you don't normally do that, I'll just throw this out there. The pet food companies that I'm familiar with have their meat products shipped in after being processed elsewhere. They do a good...

      Suggested safe/vault for Suburban console?

      I've just bought a new-to-me Suburban 2018. I usually keep my vehicles for 10 years, so I don't mind investing appropriately in storage for my firearm. I didn't see any recent threads on this topic. I'm wavering between something like this that is most secure...

      First Merchants bank went anti-gun. I went anti-First Merchants today

      First Merchants bank is primarily located in small towns in central Indiana (although they have expanded into Indianapolis also in the last few years) We were a customer because we used a small bank in Crawfordsville when we purchased our home in 1998. That bank was bought by a Lafayette bank...

      What if.... a 1990s style "ban" passed again?

      I know "molon labe" and all but ... seriously wondering.... what do you think would happen if a ban on semiautomatic rifles, magazines that hold over 10 rounds, etc were to actually pass on the federal level? I think the political fallout would be significant, but not so simplistic as last...

      Metal security check at Old National Center (formerly the Murat) theater

      My husband and daughter went to a Neil deGrasse Tyson show last night at Old National Center (we, being old, still call it the Murat, but I digress. They arrived early to find a security check at the entrance. This was apparently not one of those "peek in the bag, let you go" but they were...

      PSA: Sleeping in may keep you out of trouble

      I had my alarm set for 5:30 this morning, planning to have my oatmeal and coffee before I went out deer hunting. I apparently slept through my alarm, but received a text at 6 am followed by a phone call from the neighbor that she had seen my dog out in the road. Our outdoor dogs have Invisible...

      Training to Reholster: Look at holster ?

      I left a training class today because i was concerned about the safety protocols I was witnessing. There is one thing I don't feel certain about, though I feel certain it wasn't appropriate for this group at this time. We were demonstrating/discussing drawing from the holster and...

      Latest Guccifer Hack: The DCC complete with cell numbers

      If I had any interest in hounding Democrat congresscritters, now would be the time. Or they may have already changed their numbers. Latest hack by Guccifer is the DCC. The Democrats are putting the "Russian" spin on him and in turn trying to tie him to Trump to change the conversation. I...

      The British Bond market

      I assume at least a few people in this subforum share some of my concerns about the global economy and what the effect will be on us average people. Interesting stuff last night in the British bond market. The BOE tried to initiate some more QE by buying longer term bonds and they couldn't get...

      Rusty rocker panel on trucks

      I'm shopping for a used truck right now. It's a PITA primarily because half of the people on Craigs list are flakes, but that's another story. Trucks in Indiana have rust, I know that's just a reality particularly at the price range we are shopping in. I've found a couple that are in really...
