    Help with GC3

    Just bought a Carolina Custom SP conversion.

    Well you start by strutting around the table like a banny rooster with his feathers on display. Then before you address the ball, you grab hold of your belt on both sides and hike your pants about 2 inches higher, Scratch your crotch right before you lean over the table, and snort real big...

    After flying recently and having a bag searched, I got the idea of checking my cue case and packing the firearm that I Carry in it. You can pack a firearm in luggage as long as you declare it, it locks, and it is legal to posses at your destination. So the next time I fly, I will put my...
