Actually, no. The closest to any "choice" you get is through the ballot box. You shoulda learned that in 6th grade civics class. And irrespective of much you pay in taxes, she still isn't going to shave those pits.

The problem is a worn leather holster can get caught on the trigger and pull it.

I use hard plastic holsters for my Glocks for just this reason. I also use a "Glock Block" as my safety.

How fast can you clear the block? I've always been leery of the trigger safety. As such, my revolvers are double action and my .45 has a grip safety....

Cal has some awesome Mex. food places but don't assume you can't find them elsewhere. We have one here that is insane....never disappointed in service or their quality of food.

We used to stop at the Malibu Inn for lunch on our way to the Monterey Festorics. We still stop there but don't like it as much as the 'Casa Escobar'.

Two M5s and a Alpina B7 Turbo in the middle.
