Thanks to Sledge we have had a good time watching Tex's exploits.  And he doesn't disappoint this time either:

Stay with it because you are going to learn something here...Trust me...  ;D

Was that the Tacticool Texas Two Step Turn Around Maneuver? ???

I also like the tacticool "dunlap" fighting stance....

Isn't he a friend of Gecko45?

Did anyone notice on his reload that he racks the slide after the magazine is in place?

That indicates one of two things.

1.  He just ejected a perfectly good round from the chamber and let it fall to the ground. (I believe this is the case)

or

2.  He did his perimeter scan with an empty gun. (don't think this was the case because it didn't look like the slide was being held open.

I'm assuming that in The World According To Tex a good shooting demonstration is worthless unless it includes at least one slide rack.

I was taught that way when young Tex was still shooting himself in the leg with a cap gun. It assures that a round is in the chamber.  It is faster than doing a chamber check.

I was more unimpressed that the tactical tubby needs two belts and does the Charlies Angels twirl.  Who was he holding at gun point when he picked up the spent magazine?

I think ol' Tex has been watching too many Saturday Night Live reruns.  He seems to be channeling Dan Aykroyd.
