Yeah, yeah, I know. But I'm "that guy" that doesn't have a "range" gun. My range guns are my carry guns. When I go to the range, I take what I may have to use. Those are the ones I want to be really good with, anyway. They're still fun, too.   My preference is a striker fired, constant trigger pull platform. I don't mind constant DA either, like a revolver. The consistency is my preference. 

I just yell out "State Farm"and the prick drives into an oak tree every time.

  better.  If I did that with MY body, there would be a major face-plant. :ugh:

I just checked in thinking you might have a herd of them you actually needed droving to somewhere: - OS

Have any of you actually used them? I have. Gonna need some more info. If they're Aguila SUPER Colibri that average ~500fps, for example...I've shot them out of my 20" barreled bolt action quite a bit. Good up to about 20 yards (at a target) and quieter than a pellet gun. If it's just the Aguila Colibri that average ~375, I wouldn't shoot them in anything but a pistol. As always, YMMV, but I've shot about 500 SUPER Colibri out of my bolt action

I'm pumped, win or lose this game I'm just excited it's football time again in Tennessee. I'd really enjoy it if we were a game over .500. We're still building but we have some big, promising players that will be fun to watch

IMHO Berettas are just beautifully built handguns. If you buy one, odds are it won't be your last. I'll definetely buy a TN built model, but Cougars have always been my favorite to shoot. If you ever have the chance to try out a Beretta Cougar you'll fall in love. 8040 D Cougar (No safety or decocker...just point & shoot) 92G & 96G Elites

Had a good time with the new shooters. The one I brought said it was the "best experience!" Thanks for those that stayed and shot my 3 gun stage in the pouring rain!

I become sad whenever I read threads such as these. It seems like Obama is people's sole focus when it comes to addressing their grievances against our government. Ya do realize that he and Holder are not our entire federal government? By always focusing your disgust at Obama you are pretty much giving a pass to all the other s.o.b.s in Congress, and they are equally complicit. Just a question here... What the heck did Bush and the Republicans do about illegal immigration and the border when they controlled it all? Not much. If we have an attack, and the intelligence shows that the perpetrators entered our country through the southern border, don't just blame Obama. Yes, he is certainly worthy of it, but so are the rest of the jackasses in Congress, a few state governors, the media, certain large corporations, and lastly, but most importantly, the voters who voted the jackasses in office (this includes me).

They're just gearing up to introduce some new invasive "anti-terrorist" measure that will do nothing to stop terrorism but a whole lot to oppress American citizens (the Brits are up to it too). Just wait and see.

My Powder stays dry Dave and my weapons remain locked and loaded. As far as I'm concerned first car bomb set off on that border should be the last and the order to shoot to killed should be issued and that order should be for all forms of law enforcement, Military and even land owners on the border. It's time to give Washington DC a lesson on how you close a border and keep it closed.........jmho   I look for it to possibly take place in about 12 days on the anniversary of 9/11...........jmho

So here it is...my version of the recurved blade. It's 1/8" 1095 carbon steel heat treated professionally to RC59-60. As you can see it has nice large jimping to the front of the handle as well as within the handle on both the top and bottom. Even though the jimping is large it isn't rough on the fingers at all.The scales are cocobolo dymondwood and this thing if big.....right at 13" total length and a blade length of about 7". It has a nice long handle ....no wondering how your gonna grip it here. It has a lanyard hole and the handle is held on mechanically as well as with epoxy. The finish is very unique and I really like how it turned out. Truth be told it's so different I'm not sure I could even recreate it again if I tried. it seems very well balanced and I've very happy the way it turned out.

Russian? Would make more sense lol.   We dont need no stinkin trailer!   http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=585_1409408847

Triggers are smooth as silk on these two (after very light polishing of internals with mothers mag polish) and both have custom grip panels. They shoot great! Tried a bunch of different grips but keep coming back to the factory rubber ones. Would like to add a Smith to replace my model 19 nickel I foolishly sold though. But they are nice revolvers. One with darker grips I've had since 1992 and the lighter grips belong to a 2014 model. thanks for looking! I

Here's pictures of my little cannon.... I took some pictures to show how thick the barrel walls are. And don't worry, the little cannonballs cannot fit down the bore and nothing will be used as a projectile.... they are only for decoration. The only thing else it needs is a little American flag. It was a fun project P.S. Sorry for my crappy sign making, but my hands aren't as steady as they once were

A&E Network has cancelled the show "Longmire"   Just saw this on a web news page. One of the few decent shows on, but network execs would rather show these pieces of crap "reality" shows.    I'm Pissed.

Not bad. The defense looked great. Offense had a few mistakes, but looked to be just nerves of young and inexperienced players.   Butch has definitely made his mark.

Same here. It's a range gun. Much too large and heavy for me to carry daily, although I know some find that it works for them just fine.

That , my friend is priceless. Now , quit drooling all over the pistols ! Turn on the Tennessee game and quit listening to my babble , it's all good.

I am sorry your dad has passed. I have a .22 of my dad's' and a 12ga. side by side from my great GF in smokeless steel that are priceless. I protect them in my safe. My father has plenty of guns but does not want me to take them from him just yet. I was just making fun. Enjoy what you have , and as you do , protect what you can. My parents are both in their late 80's and live up the street from me. I am happy that I can drive by their house and not have to stop , but I do get the daily call to hit the Kroger. I am blessed.

  How European of you.

Old man, old man.....I can't believe he called you "old man"!!! If you're an "old man" what does that make Gerry, Dan, Dennis and me?!? In the inimitable words of John Malkovich in the movie "RED"... "Old man, my ass"!

Hell, I'm doing my part! :shrug:

How on earth would they even know who owns guns in free states where folks can buy firearms face to face? This is cute, but holds zero water, imho. Sure, I'm sure I'm on a list somewhere, but I know a number of folks who've never filled out transfer paperwork but can still defend themselves if needed.

  I hear people saying "who's Utah State?"   I well remember "what's a Rutgers"?  ;)   - OS

I've had both a 92FS and a PT92. The Beretta had a bit better finish but I always could shoot better with the Taurus and the safety/decocker position also felt much better and easier to operate on the PT92. It also comes with an incorporated key-lockable safety. Now magazines don't interchange between them so if you like a lot of mags you can probably find surplus Beretta mags a lot easier and cheaper.

Thank you DJ for helping the guests!

The tea party is supposed to be about fiscal responsibility. It annoys me when people try and hijack it for things not directly related.

I have been in Tennessee since 1967 and have zero plans of ever leaving here and will be buried here..............jmho

Nah, if I can't find a field with good hunters an more than 50 feet between us, I'll wait for deer season. But thanks for trying to make me brave enough to try!

if this comes to fruition the terrorists are already here.   It is foolishness to think we can stop an attack in ten days.  If ISIS or whoever has something planned it has been planned and has been going on for some time. They can't pull this off in a matter of days or hours.   Every year as time gets closer to 9-11 we read of these threats.  It has not happened yet.     an old Marine Gunny who is a regular customer came in today and talked about it.  He wants volunteers to go to Texas and sit on the border to start shooting.  He is willing to lead.

I read that Warner Brothers actually owns the show(rights) and is looking for someone to go to with it. I really hope they are successful. This is a really good series. Almost as good a Craig Johnson's books. And I'm sure you all know how rare it is for an adaptation of the original to be as good. It's kind of ironic really. There are so many things that are changed from Johnson's story. Biggest is of course the story between Walt and Vic. You can guess that this relationship is a little closer than on the show. Branch is not in the books. And Ferg...well he doesn't play nearly as big a role. Lucian is a one-legged crochety old sherrif. And Henry Standing Bear is a huge person. Like 250 lbs of muscle huge. But if you have enjoyed the show, read the books. The are great. PS My wife is pretty teed off as well.

Had not heard of the incident you mention. Understandable that LEA would have no choice but take that position, but it appears to everyone but Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder that what they are doing now ain't working. Trust me, I don't fault anyone but the current resident of 1600 Pennsylvania for what is taking place down there now.

Thanks to Mechanic_x for putting it on. Always good to have trigger time, and to study/steal ideas and tips from the others! @Musicman, good meeting you today as well. Hopefully we'll see you out again.

Yep, and those people watch more TV than you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Prayer. Seek His guidance.

It's a distraction topic... We need another nameless, faceless monster to be afraid of (...outside of Obama and Holder, that is...)... What better way to divert from the ratty stuff goin on here and to smear the border Patrol, The Texas National Guard, and Rick Perry in the mean time...???   leroy

I think Juarez has been in the crosshairs for quite some time due to the cartel violence. A few cruise missles may do the trick.   Dave

If you want longer range, check out strategic edge down in chapel hill. Rifle range goes out past 1k.

100 yrs, 50 yds, 25 yds, 12 yds (more for pistol, really), and then the pistol pit, which is basically from point blank range out to 15 yds or so.

This. Full auto is "cool" and all. But unless it's belt fed I see no real reason for it. It's just something to show off.

I'll be slinging lead on the Robertson Co. TWRA field if you feel lucky. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks guys for the ideas. I'll look at some online items, and maybe WallyWorld and Gasp! , even Bass Pro.   I feel so good this morning after the checkup...4 and a half years leukemia and cancer free! I might splurge and buy from Bass Pro!

 You "ain't no" English teacher either  :rofl:  Just messing   :rofl:  I could not resist seeing that  double-negative in that sentence LOL .  You are correct , the G19 is really sweet. I did buy an X-Grip magazine sleeve for my Glock 26 and put the sleeve over the Glock 19 magazine and put it in my Glock 26 . WOW , its like a Glock 19 with a little shorter of a barrel . 

  Be patient... we're working on that... but Rome wasn't built in a day. We have several folks in the legislature and executive branch that haven't quite "got it" yet, so it's going to take some time and effort to get things changed for the better. But hey, this year we just got 50+yr. old restrictions on knives removed, so there's always hope for the better.

Gun A or B, "on book" or "off", the questions you should be asking are "which carries better" and "which is reliable".

Understand Tango, as to the OP's question. Marlins are huntin rifles, I have a few, some are a sure beauty but they still go to the woods.

Welcome to Tennessee & TGO.   I live in the Murfreesboro area. As far as selection goes, for stand-alone gun shops Outpost Armory is a gunner's wet dream. However, If you shop around you'll probably find better prices on a lot of things-- that's not a poke at them-- they've never claimed to be the cheapest. Even so, the selection is pretty hard to beat, and most of the staff is quite knowledgeable, so it all depends on what you want to spend. In most cases, if they don't have it in stock, they can get it.   There are plenty of other shops in the area with varying selection, each serving its own little niche in the market... On-Target Arms in Murfreesboro, Specialty Arms in LaVergne,Mid-Tenn Pawn in Murfreesboro, and a few others. Obviously, as far as big box stores go, the Academy Sports in Smyrna is a good bet and stays well-stocked in the firearms/ammo dept.   If you're willing to drive a bit, there are many others in the Nashville area who can fill just about any firearms need you might have.   As far as transfers go, I haven't found anyone in Rutherford County who is cheaper than Mid-Tenn Pawn in Murfreesboro. $25 bucks.     As far as ranges go, my favorite is still OK Corral in Woodbury-- about 15-20 miles east of Murfreesboro. It's an all-outdoor range with several separate pistol ranges, a 10-bay covered 200-yd rifle range, two trap ranges, a hi-power/shotgun berm, and they're still expanding... You can bring your own targets (recommended), shoot your own loads, and no membership is required. The price? How about $5.00 for all ranges-- all day long? (The trap range has a separate charge for clays).

I used to do it (every once in a while and not that often), realized how silly it was, and haven't in years and years of carrying done it again. I've only seen 1 person since I've lived in TN open carry. And that was also at Home Depot, and it was a woman with an XD about 3.5 years ago. Even in MN I never saw it.
