Today I was browsing in a local pawn shop owned by a friend & happen to notice he had a German Luger in the case. This was a real beauty & has been very well taken care of by somebody. I'd call the finish at least 90% & it even had the original leather flap holster & two magazines. It was priced $1,250 so I told him it was very nice, but out of my range, but he winked & told me I could shoot it for free. I thought he was making a joke until he pulled out a box of Speer 9mm & told me to follow him outside. It didn't shoot like most old military pistols I've tried. I was amazed at how smooth the action was & how little recoil it had. We had a good time tearing a two liter bottle to shreds behind his shop. When all was said & done I was really impressed at how well it performed & it made my day to have the opportunity to try out a pistol that I've mostly only read about.4 points

I delieverd for the Papa John's in Lebanon years ago. There was no policy forbiding customers carrying on the store at that time, drivers were forbidden to carry though. I did anyway, figured losing my pizza delivery job and keeping my life was an okay tradeoff.3 points

I prefer not to disclose because it has nothing to do with why I was stopped, I'm not going to tell him about all the stuff in my car that's not a danger to him. I don't see a difference in telling him I have a gun and telling him about my grandma's toe fungus. Neither are relevant to why I was stopped.2 points

And yeah it does...How about an 1859 Original Sharps .45-100 that saw service in the Civil War, The Indian Wars and as a Buffalo Market harvester....

You don't mention where you are, but if you are able to meet me in Lebanon I'll give you a great deal on new 5.56 US military stuff, just purchased from J&G during their big sale. I do need it but willing to share to help a TGO member.2 points

A friend of mine told me last week that a 90 year old relative was informed by VA that if she didn't remove a weapon from her property, they would stop the monthly payment she was entitled to receive. There are too many opportunities by different government agencies to abuse a seizure law without due process.2 points

Ok. I'll be the odd man out here. I like it. Period. Looks pretty similar to the Sig 250. I'd certainly like to see and try one before buying...but...I do like it. Oh...and Steel, may the ghost of Jerry Ahern torment your dreams for that low comment.2 points

kroil will probably protect, but honestly, do NOT use it on your guns for these purposes. It is what wd-40 is supposed to be: penetrating oil. It spreads, and creeps, and will loosen every pin, screw, whatever else is in your gun --- things will probably start to work loose just from shooting. It would work as a lube for a while, but it will spread too thin to really serve there. It will protect, but its going to creep and make a mess. Its just not the right product. If you have a rusted bolt/screw or stuck pin or even a stuck case in a die, use kroil -- its probably the best in of the class. If you want to CLP, use something else. Also, I have no idea if it harms any types of plastics or finishes. Probably ok on finishes. You might use it to clean, but I would not. Also, talk about an oil that will ruin ammo fast... I can assure you that if any oil can get into a primer and powder, this one WILL.2 points

Just heard today that Pink Floyd will release "Endless River" in October. It's their first studio album since Division Bell 20 years ago. (Dang I feel old). It's supposed to be a continuation of some stuff they were working on during DB, but it's all new stuff. Of course Roger Waters will not be on it. I wasn't a huge fan of Division Bell, but Floyd is my all-time favorite group. Just the thought of getting some new Pink Floyd material has me all excited. It may suck, but I don't care, it will be Floyd. To me "The Wall" is a masterpiece that will never be topped. I could listen to that album on a continuous loop. I've listened to it thousands of times and still hear some new nuance in it somewhere.1 point

You would have a problem because you were not an innocent victim; but a willful participant. If you had not said anything and kept walking and the person attacked you; you would be justified in using force. Pulling a weapon is not deadly force. Tennessee has no law against brandishing. If you threaten a person with your weapon and were not justified the charge would probably be felony assault. Would you be charged if you shot him? You very well could be; depends on how the DA sees it. But even if they walk away after you pull your weapon; call the Police and wait for them to arrive. The first caller is the “complainant†the second caller is the “suspectâ€. Having said that I keep my mouth shut when I’m carrying and I would have to be taking a pretty bad azz whipping to pull a gun. The chances of me being hurt seriously or killed are slim; the chances of me destroying my family’s finances will legal bills are much higher.1 point

Savage Axis has upgraded with adding an accu trigger, and they are cheap brand new. The stock is flimsy but its a lot of rifle for the $. I've got the version without the trigger and it's is spot on at 250+yds.1 point

I fly with guns all the time. Recently I took my Accuracy International to NM in a massive pelican case. Just check it at the desk normally where you check normal bags, they give you a card to fill out, make sure the guns clear, and it goes onto the plane like normal. A pistol is the same way, only difference is a pistol is in your checked baggage and comes out the carousel, where a hard case thats stand alone goes to the over sided baggage claim and you need to show your ID to get it. Its a painless and effortless experience in all honesty. Forgot to mention. Pistols needs to be in locked case inside your baggage. Stand alone case (Pelican style) also needs a minimum of two locks, and those locks need to be airline approved. The packages the locks come in have the airplane insignia on them to show they are airline approved. Also, you can only carry 11 pounds of ammo in a checked bag. It must be in original packaging or something like a plastic storage cased that a reloader would use.1 point

Hey all, first post here. I am finally happy to find some info on this powder.I bought some at a gun show in Knoxville back in the spring when I needed pistol powder. It came in 5 lb jugs marked surplus pistol powder and its gray flake just like in the pics above. I bought two jugs. However, my labels didn't have starting loads on them, they had grain loads and fps info on them. From this I worked up a nice 45acp load 230 grain bullet load as well as a nice 9mm 147 grain bullet load. I dig the recoil from this powder, somewhat like Unique in 45 and not as snappy as Titegroup for 9mm. It burns well with no unburnt flakes in lower powered rounds, cleaner than Unique,Universal,Titegroup, and 231.1 point

I pulled the rotted wood sides off my 5X8' raised garden this spring, and rebuilt/expanded it to about 6x10' (inside) with (40 or so) concrete blocks ($1.14 each at Lowes) stacked two high. I added compost and additional dirt to bring it to about 6" from the top, then laid down landscape fabric and covered it with a layer of mulch before planting. I planted 24 tomato plants; 4 plants each of 6 varieties, with serrano chilis on one end and jalapenos on the other, and filled some of the holes in the blocks with dirt and basil plants. Add Miracle grow, and wait... WOW! I've never had a garden this beautiful! I've been eating the cherry tomatoes for a couple of weeks, and I must have 100 others of assorted varieties getting big and starting to ripen. The tomatoes are coming it without the weird shapes and black spots I've had in previous years. I also put a plastic owl up to keep the birds away, and even that seems like it's working great. Best thing I've found to do with fresh tomatoes is to slice them and put on cheap white bread with a slice of velveeta - then put them under the broiler for a few minutes..1 point

I'm not left handed but carry my knife on the left. I hold the knife with the button down pinched between my left thumb and index finger. My other three fingers wrap around the handle with the tips of my nails just touching the blade. I press the button with the end of my left index finger and the blade slips past the tips of the other three. It's easy to operate with ether hand just practice a bit. HTH Joe W.1 point

I just went through this with an elderly aunt that had signs of dementia. I ask my father if he got the guns out of the house; he said he did. It’s not about rights it’s about responsibility. Of course gun rights pales in comparison to all the other issues families have to deal with in these situations.1 point

If they aren’t fit for duty handguns are destroyed. I’ve heard rumors that M14’s and M16’s have been converted to semi-auto and donated to Police Departments. But I don’t know that for sure. Although the M4 is more desirable the M16 is still a functional battle rifle (if you are okay with .223), we (taxpayers) paid for those M16’s and the government should be required to keep them in the event we would need them, as long as they are functional and safe.1 point
