      Indiana Law and carrying a folding knife (Spyderco Para 2) - Recent Situation

      My post could have been clearer. I was not making the statement that state trumps federal law. I was just always under the impression that state law always trumps local laws. That was the "all" I was referring to. I wasn't sure of its reach though when I referred to that it may trump federal...

      Indiana Law and carrying a folding knife (Spyderco Para 2) - Recent Situation

      That's what I figured. But they are soooo good. ;) Actually if he didn't just ask me to pocket it, I would have politely pushed the issue. He was actually pretty nice about it. I weighed the pros and cons of the whole thing and didn't think it was worth making a big deal out of it. I was...

      Indiana Law and carrying a folding knife (Spyderco Para 2) - Recent Situation

      Thanks for the info everyone. That's how it came across which is why I just told him thanks for the warning, pocketed it and moved on. Even if I could have pushed the issue, it really wasn't worth my time or effort. It would have sucked to have it confiscated. Even if there was an avenue...

      Indiana Law and carrying a folding knife (Spyderco Para 2) - Recent Situation

      Hello all, The reason I am posting is because of a recent situation. I was walking into the Blueberry Festival in Plymouth yesterday when a Sheriff walked up to me pointing towards my pocket. I actually had no idea what he was pointing at so I looked through my pockets. He said no, the...

      Suggestion for Backpacking/Hiking & Biking Knife Setup

      Thanks for the info. Being new to knives I was not aware of that. Ontario Knife is no longer being considered. Looks like it is either an ESEE or a Swamprat. I am not familiar with SR101. Is that considered better than 1095? Corrosion resistance? Also, I received the first and second...

      Suggestion for Backpacking/Hiking & Biking Knife Setup

      Thanks for the suggestion. Given that I just ordered a Spyderco Paramiltary 2, the Ratmandu is a little out of my price range right now. But, I came across a Rodent 4 that looks pretty nice for $109. While I couldn't confirm it, I did read on another forum that they offer a very good lifetime...

      Suggestion for Backpacking/Hiking & Biking Knife Setup

      Thanks for all of the replies and suggestions. After reading a number of reviews and looking into some of the suggested brands offerings, I have my choices down to the following. Folder Spyderco Paramilitary G10 in Camo/Black Blade - S30V Steel or Benchmade Griptillian - Black Blade 154CM...

      Suggestion for Backpacking/Hiking & Biking Knife Setup

      Thanks for the feedback. I would definitely prefer to stay with a USA made knife, and now that I know there are a number of quality options in my price range, I will go that route. I didn't know SOG went downhill. That's too bad, I always thought they had some of the nicest looking knives in...

      Suggestion for Backpacking/Hiking & Biking Knife Setup

      Hello all, My wife and I recently got heavy into backpacking/hiking & biking and we are planning quite a few trips. We plan to mostly do day hikes and such with a possible 2-3 day'er/camping type once in a while. We will mostly be in northern Indiana up into Michigan including the UP, but...

      Holsters for Sig Sauer 1911 RCS IWB & OWB for CC

      Thanks! I am going to take a look at the Galco. I found a company on a 1911 forum that makes a similar custom holster to the Milt Sparks VM2 but they aren't taking new orders at this time. That's cool. I plan to attend the next show anyway so I will make sure that I bring it. Thanks for...

      Holsters for Sig Sauer 1911 RCS IWB & OWB for CC

      Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately their holsters do not fit the squared slide Sig 1911 models yet. I read they are working on a solution, but nothing yet.

      Holsters for Sig Sauer 1911 RCS IWB & OWB for CC

      Holsters for Sig Sauer 1911 RCS IWB & OWB for CC?? Hello all, I purchased a Sig 1911 RCS which I absolutely love. Unfortunately I can't find a good holster. I called Milt Sparks to order a VM2 but they said it wouldn't fit the Sig. I have always heard good things about Milt Sparks holsters so...

      Sig Sauer 1911???

      Thanks for all of the input everyone. To update my original post, I finally decided on, and eventually located a Sig 1911 RCS. (Nitron with Tritium sights) Fantastic gun!! It far exceeded my expectations. Even my father in law, who is a HUGE Colt fan, couldn't believe how nice it shot and...

      Legally Armed Man caught with gun in Terre Haute

      I know. My buddy, who's brother is a LEO still gives me grief to this day about it. I guess it was just bad timing, around the time there were quite a few armed robberies at either that particular bank, or others within the area. My understanding after speaking with some people about it was...

      Legally Armed Man caught with gun in Terre Haute

      A similar thing happened to me about 15 years ago. I was getting off work and just made a very large deposit for the company I was working for. I was in my car taking my pistol out of my holster and putting it in its case when someone in a truck drove by the office (I was parked on the...

      Traveling to Las Vegas via Airline. CC in the Grand Canyon?

      Thanks for the info. We will play it safe and stay on the south rim so we can avoid any of the tribal areas.
