Does anyone know how to clean bloodstains at the DNA level and where to get lye in bulk? No reason, just asking. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

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.

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

Only my second time finishing/staining furniture of any kind and the first time ever on a gun stock. But I've been working on/off for about 2 months on this stock set trying to recreate the color tones of SVD furniture for my Vepr-nov build and finally finished her tonight. I spent tons of time researching the colors of original russian SVD furniture and they really seem to run the gambit of color pallet. It can be orange-ish, honey brown, or even a little reddish brown. In the end I went with a iodine/acetone undercoat to get that orangish glow and to pop the grain on the tiger maple. Then I layed on a heavy coat of minwax red mahogany which took weeks to dry completely. Then 3 coats of satin polyurethane. The stock set itself(Rhineland Arms) had no fitment issues but I did have to trim up the slots in the handguard. The forward retaining screw in the tang did sit a little high after being fully tightened and required me to do some hand fitting/filing with the recoil rod assembly. Rhineland ships you a test block of wood cut from the same lumber as your stock set so that you can experiment with stains, etc. I tried all kinds of formulas and recipes all over the net but in the end the combo listed above seemed to produce the best results. Anyways - here she is...

With the proviso that some cargo pants offer greater flexibility with respect to pocket carry of handguns I'll offer my $00.02 worth of insight. The LC9 proved itself a bit to large for pocket carry by me. I found the same to be true of the Walther PPK/s, KT PF9 and Colt Detective Special. S&W 2" J Frame Airweights are doable but feel bulky. The Ruger LCP, KT P3AT & P-32 work agreeably. I've also pocket carried a Beretta Jetfire Model 950 in 25 ACP and a Baby Browning (Bauer)  25 ACP's.   Now for some methodology; I tend to avoid wearing "tactical pants" and "cargo pants" because just like a fanny pack if your a guy of a certain age they highlight you as a probable gun carrier. I don't like that or want it, preferring instead to be the "grey man" in the back ground no one notices. There's a lot of merit to not drawing undue attention to oneself.     So as much as I dislike pocket carry I find myself out and about with a LCP of proven reliability a lot more often than with a SA XDs9 or SR9

And if you dont want/need to practice alot with it or make it a range gun, I had a S&W M&P340 that I loved for its purpose. .357mag Jframe, Scandium frame, stainless cylinder. Weighed nothing but packed a hell of a punch.

The Kahr PM9 is a good pocket carry and its more economical CM9 should be too. My PM9 has night sights and everything else is original. The Kahr's have a trigger somewhat like a revolver, long and smooth. Mine is extremely accurate, light, slim profile and a pleasure too shoot.

The LC9 has a striker fired version now. They GREATLY improved the trigger.

I'm curious how he is passing is POST mandated background check and not passing the HCP check?

faulty data.  Thankfully none are registered here.   In TN, we register sex offenders, not innocent guns.

Maybe their numbers are phony?

Reaffirms my belief that you just can't fix stupid.

Oh.......sorry, I didn't know it was engine trouble.   :blush:

I hope it gets fixed soon.... I want to shoot it

In fact I just ordered one from them for 300 blk the only thing that was a killer is their shipping rate they realy get you on that.

This is an interesting thread. I've got my road rage stories too and agree that many drivers are truly unaware behind the wheel. I find it interesting, however, in this whole thread there's not been a bad driver. And when speaking to others at work or in public, etc. I've never met a self proclaimed bad driver. I say this humorously, but since we all talk about bad drivers and have never met all these bad drivers we talk about, where do the bad drivers live and work that they are never in public? :) Also, pertaining to the tailgating, I do my best to keep a decent distance between myself and the car ahead of me, it seems like an invitation for everyone to cut in front me though. It's almost defensive driving to tailgate just to avoid people cutting me off at times. I ride a motorcycle too it's truly amazing the things I see on it. Just my .02

If the 3-inch j-frame is truly everything you want in a small handgun, but not quite suitable for pocket carry, I'd probably go with either a S&W Airweight, Ruger LCR, or maybe a steel j-frame with a slightly shorter barrel, like a 640.  Pretty close to the gun that's everything you want, and much more pocketable.  You might also try the new LC9s - I hear the trigger is much, much better than the old LC9.

  Yup, my first choice for pocket carry years ago, have never had any reason to look further. Still nothing with 6+1 9mm capacity any smaller.  Amazing recoil dampening too, some kind of voodoo apparently.   - OS

A tough schedule ahead. At least we may get some respect back. When I was a kid, every team in the country hated to go to TN, now it is not that way. We have to put the fear back in them. JTM Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I did have an acquaintance of mine apply and get "the letter" and he had an assault charge when he was a teen that he had to provide court documents that it was not domestic assault. After that he got permit in the mail. JTM Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Last night was the first time in over 5 months that I have pocket carried something other than my Shield. Just saying!

it is good for business when they win.

I've never heard of the device and have been reloading for over 30 years.  I guess I don't need one.  :D

You're law enforcement and they denied your carry permit?  They give a reason?

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.

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

I know this game isn't a very good measuring stick, but I'm very impressed with our young defense. Heck, Worley has pleasantly surprised me too, I've not been his biggest proponent in the past

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

  How European of you.

[quote name="RC3" post="1185127" timestamp="1409526609"]If only they televised college soccer. Then I would be interested. Other wise, dont care for college nor pro football.

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

I'll buck the tide -- wouldn't much care about having a full auto anything.  I guess a three round burst AR would be rather cool, and perhaps even "practical" after the Big Crash, but full auto, nah.   edit: Well,  then again maybe just one AK with a drum,  in case I needed to do the "kill everyone in the room at the poker game" type thang. ;)   - OS

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

The guys that 'will never get into an accident for XXX reason are the most dangerous guys on the road.   Be ever vigilant and careful.   Not cocky.

I will have one that says made in Tennessee.

With Beretta moving their whole shebang to TN, that sort of seems like heresy! Btw, my take on the Tarurus "92" is that they are likely the best thing Taurus makes, many folks like the decocker location better, and they'll work well until they don't -- which isn't likely nearly as long as the McCoy. But again, wouldn't you like to have one made in TN? I have two 92FSs and dang if I won't be tempted to do some kind of deal on one to get one that says TN on it. But I guess it may be a good long while before the first ones roll out. - OS

Well, it poured most of the day and seeing as how I don't wanna get my powder wet.... :D   i ran a rod down the barrel once more and filled my big powder horn with FFFG and the little one with  FFFFG.    I plan to go out tomorrow morning and do some serious shooting with it so maybe I can get a decent range report in.   I'll take my tried and true Hawkins to put a couple of rounds out then give the ole flintlock a work out.   I was gonna bring out my .45-100 but I think I'll devote the whole session to ole Mr. Flint.   Old Indian Chant....

That's easy 1) 249/MK46 2) Bravo 240  3) M60E4 or 6 4)M2HB 5) GE MINI GUN Shooting 30rd mags gets boring after awhile, BF never do.

Ok without starting a riot by stating the obvious or mentioning any team names. The orange vest with the reflective tape are the new collegiate fall wardrobe line. The orange is in support of your favorite team and the reflective tape is so you don't get run over on the highway while performing community service.

I really suppose you guys are right. I've thought about, and came to the conclusion that the only people banning things hurts is us citizens that will follow the dumb law anyways. You're right, the bad guy don't give a darn about the laws...I guess I'll change my SD way of thinking.   A blessed day to all   Dave

  Here is my checklist to see if something should be accessible on the open market...   1) Do police officers have it for individual use? 2) Do Soldiers have it for individual use?   If the answer is yes to either question, then it needs to be available to the public as well.  Nothing should be exclusive for LE/MIL use only and no police officer or Soldier should have a quantitative arms edge over the public with their individual kit.

Big Bro has more than enough information on me, with or without an ip address.  I don't use whitehouse.gov as I don't see it accomplishing anything.

I don't think my elected officials pay much attention to anything other $$$.  I don't have enough money to get their attention.

do you think they pay any attention to these petitions?   The Man always knows what is best for us. ;)
