Nice setup!
Here's my G19 in the MTAC Comp-TAC.

Thanks and ditto.

Do you carry all of that everyday? That's a lot of stuff to lug around.

Half of the time I just carry the 15 + 1 rds of federal HPs w/ the penetrator and have an extra mag or two in the car...Sometimes I'll throw a mag in my pocket though.

All that crap gets heavy after awhile.

It's all in my pockets every day. And it's really not that bad. It doesn't even slow me down when I have to run and stuff.

Just need to have a good belt. I have the wilderness instructor belt.

Had a 3rd hail storm this evening. Too dark to see anything now. And there is more on the way.

So far so good here a home. My son works at a local grocery and he said via text that the staff and customers were in the produce cooler.

I'm holding out hope the coming storms will weaken some before they get to us. Could be a long night.

Me too. Even in a vinyl sided house.

That's another requirement I want for my next home. Some substantial construction. Some of these modern homes are only a step or two above a tent.

 

[johnb62]

Seems like the first pass is starting to calm down some. They recorded a 90 mph wind gust near Mt. Vernon.

 

[rmabrey]

If it gets too bad, there is a ditch 30 feet from my apartment building. but im currently on the balcony drinking a beer
