Over the next couple of weeks I’ll be running some Holster Auctions on EBay.  These holsters were ordered by my father, Robert Boatman, in 2001 while he was writing Living with Glocks.  They are in great shape, but I have no need for so many holsters.  They are virtually unused.  Most of them had a gun slipped in, [...]

Social Obligation to Carry a Gun

My father, Robert Boatman, was never one to mince words.  Not in day-to-day life and certainly not in his writing.  His most-famous article appears in his book Living with Glocks and can be read at the Iron Word Ranch website.  I get a lot of comments on that piece.  The one below is one that [...]
