So I got pulled over this morning for 58 in a 45. I handed the officer my license and HCP. He asked if I was armed and, if so, where it was. I told him I was and where the gun was. He didn't even blink. Ran my license and only gave me a warning. He was very professional the entire time and didn't freak out when he found out I was armed. It was a younger officer (my wife said he looked about 12  :pleased: ).    This Metro officer was very polite and professional the entire time. As good an experience as you can hope to have when getting pulled over for speeding!

  Oh yeah! I was very happy. My wife now things a HCP is a magic "get out of ticket" card.    Even if he had written me the ticket, he was professional and polite. Officers get a hard time when experiences are bad - I figured people need to know that at least some of them are doing things right!

The golden rule. Do unto others as you have others do unto you. Works every time.

  Where's the fun in that?

It'll be 12 more days till I see it so don't spoil it! Even though I've seen the other versions and read the books. Lol! It's the Christmas tradition, me and the wife wake up around 9am. Go out to a movie. Eat Italian at Buca Di Beppo. Come home and go back to sleep. This year, its Smaug and rigatoni!!!!

Is freaking awesome....saw the HFR 3D version....only thing I hate about these movies is waiting a year to see the next...

^ Nice buck I shot this one today: Rain quit about 7:30 and I left the rundown, critter infested, old house I holed up in and I went to slippin' through the woods. Eased out a ridge and peeked over the edge and saw a doe picking around on a little flat about 75yds below me. Hid behind a tree and glassed with the binoculars and could see another deer behind her. Waited a minute and he got clear, I leaned around the tree and a Federal Fusion .223 to the boiler room was all she wrote for him. Fun hunt. I don't get to do it much but the wind and wet ground was right for it today. Thanks to my Dad for teaching me how to slip around in the woods chasing squirrels.

Wait, we have non TN residents on this forum?! Infidels!! 

Yep, big shout out to David for the "members only ammo". I know he caught some heat for not selling to others that saw the ammo being sold. But he stuck to his guns to support us!!! And that's why I only buy from him

without killing myself.    Crazy cycling tricks.   Everything is truly impressive but the trick at the 3:45 mark is super cool to me.    [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhabgvIIXik [/media]

I celebrate Mr Mandela because after his release from prison he could have become a bitter, vengeful leader of a million man killing machine exacting punishment on his perceived enemies. Yet he chose peace. People who love money and material things can weep over the loss of prosperity, but I celebrate the humanity. I have mentioned this before somewhere. In the very near future when America becomes a majority of brown people, will you want your neighbors treating your children, grandchildren and great grandchildren in the matter that history teaches us that their ancestors were treated by America? Keep in mind that not everyone is seduced by gold and trinkets.

Well, we know what this is leading up to...

You know, guys, if by some miracle the GOP runs say, a Paul/Cruz ticket or similar, I think you're going to be amazed at just how conservative this country isn't.   - OS

I think right now I am just going to say a Prayer for the young man in the hospital and his family. From what I have understood from the news releases the shooter was going to shoot the library teacher and that was his target and the young man in the hospital confronted the shooter to try and stop him when he was shot and another person was also injured but not seriously and prayers will go out to that child and their parents............. :(

  Duh. If it was an AR, he would have killed hundreds

This bobcat watched the hunter gut the deer and then came right up to have a snack.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u65rvJfc6iM   Was either very hungry or one of the mildest tempered bobcats I have seen.

OP must type as I do. Adjacent keys are always fair game. le = lr in my mind.

I don't have one myself. I've got a friend in KY who's got one (don't know the model) and he swears it runs like a champ.

My wife literally JUST made me watch it! I don't know what happened with their cameras, but things got a little blurry toward the end for me. ;-) I'm similar to 380. My request would have been a yellow 97-98 Ferrari F355 GTB. :-D

The now deceased Nelson Mandela, the ANC and the present government of South Africa are far from being fair, honest, or kind... They are, in fact, murderous, corrupt and  brutally unkind...  The white apartied government of South Africa on it's worst days was never as corrupt or brutal as what they have now; the only difference is that now, their oppressors are black....   South Africa will straighten up its problems when the people of south africa get rid of the demagogues, rogues, and psychopaths who are systematically deceiving, murdering, oppressing and leading its citizens around like children...When the black south africans decide that their white neighbors are not the enemy and realize that the present apparatchiks of government are responsible for their plight; and when they actually take some steps to clean that problem up; they will make some real progress toward rebuilding south africa...   I liken the problem in south africa to the problem here in the good ole usa in lots of locations; principally in the crime ridden, ratty bluer big cities where machine politics rule and the citizens are voluntary serfs... The south africans are more "real" serfs than they are citizens and free men... The difference is that in south africa they are using police power and the bayonet to keep them that way....The truth is that white folks aint doin this; black demagogues and would-be dictators are doin it... There is simply no way ya can pin the present problems in south africa on "whitey"...Black majority rule and "one man one vote" has been in place in south africa for over 23 years (...since the early nineties, i think...)...   I dont think we can learn a dammed thing about race relations, how to run government, or how to get along together as fellow citizens from thugs like those currently running south africa or zimbabwe other than how not to do it...   leroy

Finally got my 300 Blackout build done, after ruining one upper and having to buy another from trout. Apparently the barrel extension pin needed a good whack with a hammer and punch. It was contacting the threads on my barrel nut and malformed them, which then malformed the receiver threads. Thanks a lot AAC.

Sorry Shawn, I haven't been over to this thread for awhile. I have a FoxPro Spitfire, and the MoJo twirling rabbit decoy.

Not so concerned about polygamy, more concerned about the underage and incestuous stuff that seems to go on within these groups. Perhaps legalizing the polygamy itself would lead to better policing of this kind of thing.

Done!

I voted google search. I live here now but didn't when I first joined up. I was in town around January 2 years ago and did exactly that, googled "Nashville gun shows" and "Nashville shooting ranges". One of those brought up TGO and I've been here since. I didn't actually join for awhile, just spent awhile reading and getting to know the place.

You gonna have any other parts that are the same color?

Same here. I actually killed my first buck ever right in this same spot with my Pappaws old 30-30. What a glorious day that was! No blind back then, sitting on one of those swivel seats that ratchet strap to the tree and it was raining. Didn't care one I had my first rack on the ground!

The part that summed it up best for me was at the end of the article where it said that the bill would cost 1 million dollars to enact in order to spend the 500,000!

Everyone always thought I was crazy for hunting weather like this but I've taken many deer like this. Glad you at least got to see some move through.

Yep, when you attempt to deal in stolen property you have to interface with criminals. Sometimes those criminals will try to rob you. Stupid points all around.

I think the general concept is disengaged, detached, and disinterested, eventually denial.  Raising kids in some cases like this one and Lanza was by remote control, and substitution..."anything to occupy the kid so I don't have to spend time with him". The remote-control options were simply fewer in the '70's.   Parents were more involved minute-by-minute (but still less than generations before). As we became more affluent & modern, it was easy to become more self-interested and self-indulgent.  There is always something standing by to fill in the gap between parents and kids.   last, in my generation, when they were loony, the parents committed them to the bin, reform-school or the military. Can't do that any more. Now they run wild.

Do you sell such pens? I could possibly be talked into one.

Received my Secret Santa package today. I grabbed it and opened it up while I was waiting to pick my daughter up from school since I was early in line. I was blown away, when I opened it up there was a pair of mossy oak merino socks that are the same ones I wear. There was also a set of Magpul FDE PTS MBUS in there but where it got really good was in reading the letter SS wrote. SS had also placed a bubble wrap envelope in the box and after reading the letter I opened it up. I'll be damn it was a handmade deer antler pen; it's probably the coolest damn gift I could get. Kudos on this one KKing, you're one awesome dude and that is some fabulous work. I carry a montblanc signature pen usually in my bag and it just got replaced. Can't say enough good stuff about it but I was so elated when I saw it I took a picture and shared it with my dad and wife, here it is. Merry Christmas everyone and thanks again KKing!

They are not gun free because the guy out side the bars or in the lobby of the jail has a gun. You would have to be referring to the inside of a jail cell only

Long as the owners and employees keep their ignorant liberal politics out of the rest of the functioning states, I hope some of those businesses move here or to likeminded states!

  I don't post this, anymoe...   :rofl:

"Please, delete me, let me go..."

NO, WE WILL POST AND MAKE IT LAST FOREVER!!!

Thats exactly what I told him. Of all the times Ive been in the woods, Ive never seen one!

Good. 2 less thugs.

The one that lived is charged with first degree murder. Hope it sticks.

A portion of the Declaration of Independence:   " . . . Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. . . . "

I don't have time for assholes like that.  Zero posts, retaliatory feedback = BAN.

  Generally, if they're still on the tree, they ain't quite perfect for eating plain. The ones that fall by themselves are the primo ones. Seriously.   - OS

Two legged coyote hunt... Sounds good. Now I need a wounded "fawn" call. I'm thinking its going to sound like: "I'm soooooooo drunk".
