Guns are g2g here.
Night hunting of hogs/predators and silencers for hunting game animals and hogs. Laser sights are g2g for hogs, but are not allowed for game animals. Don't carry your locking blade pocket knife to San Antonio No CCW license required to have a (loaded) concealed handgun in your vehicle. No need to inform a LEO about it if stopped...UNLESS you have a CCW license Be careful to registering your vehicle, changing your license, and the address on your insurance all at the same time. Several municipalities in the DFW area consider this a source of funding  Many folks will change their insurance, and maybe their license, but slack on the car registration. Get pulled over for anything, get a toll tag, or apply for a Texas CCW and your asking for a hefty fine if you did not change the vehicle registration. They will also collect taxes from you when you register, if you paid less in the state you came from.

Ahhh, more good suggestions. :) To answer a few of the questions; we're wanting to retire and buy in the Cleveland area. We like being fairly close to the ocean, close to a big city (Houston), far enough inland to not worry about hurricanes and just far enough north in the state to still make it back to see relatives. We've vacationed several times in the area, went to the DFW "big one" gun show, talked with a realtor and looked at some properties just to see how houses looked in Texas. It may sound silly but we have never seen a house without a basement! My wife had to see where everyone puts their "stuff". The one thing that stands out is how proud everyone is of their state! We want to share that proud feeling.
As far as the .22 ammo goes - NO! I'm keeping both boxes :) of 50 until the shelves get re-stocked. Might be a few more years........... |

Not to scare you. But when it comes to hurricanes, Cleveland ain't that far from the coast. Granted, you may not get the massive rain. But you would get strong winds and possible tornadoes. I've lived 35 miles from the ocean for 45 years and it always seemed that the more inland areas got it worse than I did. Except for hurricane Ike. That one messed up my area something bad.

Yep, Ike's eye came right over our house and we had 5-10min off sun and no wind. One of the wierdest shit ever. Then comes the 90+ gust from the other way and a tree feel on the carport and some of the house. Im 10 miles West of Cleveland. That one was crazy. Well they are all nuts. Weeks with no power is never cool. Its all one big sleepless week tring to keep the generator gased up. |

Carla 61 or 62 caused widespread damage in Fort Bend county with long power outages. Don't know about East Texas but it was a bad ass storm and I feel that as big as it was and a class 5 till it got right next to land it bound to have caused massive damage in east Texas also.
In 1983 hurricane Alicia did not do too much damage in most of Fort Bend County. Southwest of Houston. In fact as an electrician we did not have too many real bad calls. That night I got a call from my friends near Stevens creek or cold spring and they were in a world of hurt up there. trees down everywhere. I hauled three generators up there and did what I could to help. They were out for weeks. Once again Hurricane Rita did not hurt us much here a but we had several rotten poles break but it was worse to the East and I had friends in Cleveland area that were out of power for two weeks. 25 years after Alicia, Hurricane Ike hit us very Hard. This was due to poor line maintenance by center point energy due to deregulation and 25 years of wet weather with substantial tree growth. We worked our ass off for 3 weeks changing poles transformer banks overhead line etc. people in parts of my town were out for up to two weeks while Center point energy left us hung out to dry and took their crews to river oaks in Houston . By the way this is verified truth. But that's another story. Alicia was the strongest storm I have been through Save Carla when I was two. But Ike caused much more damage due to tree growth. If you are going to live where your power runs through piney woods be prepared with a generator. Leave your Liberal ways behind you come on down. |

As a former IL resident, welcome to the free US. I grew up near Peoria, had the FOID, kept guns locked in cases with ammo separate, the whole 9 yards. Now, I feel naked anytime I dont have a gun on my belt. The first few times you walk around with your concealed handgun, you feel like you're commiting a felony every 5 min. Then it goes away and that feeling is replaced with a sense of awesome power...like the feeling God gets when he's holding a gun.
