I was in Scottsdale, AZ the other day.  I saw a bumper sticker on a parked car that read: " I miss Chicago" .   So I broke the window, stole the radio, shot out two of the tires, added an Obama bumper sticker and left a note that read, "Hope this helps.”

If the networks aren't covering it...you can bet there's a reason other than his popularity.   I'd guess to draw the focus away from the content.   You know the lowest-common-denominator watchers won't hear of it any other way.   So possibly a way to slide it by some.

You're running a heat pump. "Emergency heat" is a backup heat source - generally electric for when the ambient temperature outside is too cold for the heat pump to operate effectively. As an old physics professor of mine used to say, "when I see that light come on, I know I'm going to be eating peanut butter sandwiches..."

I have picked up two air rifles from Essex Bargain Hunt in Franklin. Both are Gammo and shoot great. They have two other air guns in the back at deep discounts. I bought both of mine for less that 40 each and there were more that 120 on amazon. If you are looking for a deal they are a good place to look. They will not have a huge selection, but you can't beat the price. You can call and ask what they have. Bargain Hunt Discount Store 4140 Carothers Pkwy, Franklin, TN 37067 (615) 591-0774

  I'm curious about this as well.  There are very very few apartment complexes inside the city that I would consider a safe area.              48 Hours filmed a lot in Memphis because Memphis has one of the highest solve rates in the country.  Be it our "excellent detectives" or our incredibly stupid criminals, most of them get caught.  However, your impressions are why the city government kicked them out.  They felt that people were starting to look at Memphis negatively and told the show to get packing.           As terrible as Memphis is to all the people that hate it from afar or have moved away, I've been here for 31 years and haven't had an issue.   My dad lived his entire life here, dating back to 1955 and never had an issue.  We lived in a poor part of town that many would consider a high crime area.  And yet we were never robbed, broken into or murdered.  As has been mentioned before, much of Memphis' violent crime is between people that know each other.  Outside of work, I don't associate with criminals.  And its working out swimmingly for me thus far.  

Reminds me soundly of the movie Equilibrium now.  :up:

I've owned Redhawks and M-29's. Unless your heart's set on a DA/SA revolver go with a Ruger Super Blackhawk or Vaquero.

  FTFY.

I'ts "being prepared" if I do it. It's hoarding if someone else does it. :lol:

Benjamin Marauder.  It is a PCP nail driver.  Quiet, powerful, beautiful stock!  Look them up!  Great for pests, targets and all around fun.  Get a nice scope and viola!  I bought the .22

Not bad. I bought this from them last year when the promotion was 1399 and 24 pmags.   Sold the rifle and kept the mags.

  So he moved from China to the North Korea?

They're not going to have space to review it. Elections are less than two years out.

Dope Of Hope is on NBC as I type this.   I get the feeling while many are watching big bang on one channel americans are getting a BIG BANG on another :(

Move along citizens, nothing to see here.

I'd sell my S&W 29-2, 8 3/8 inch but I'm just too wishy washy. A few days from now I could be persuaded to sell it. Then again...I really enjoy  shooting the heck out of it. Recoil is ok, accuracy is outstanding. The trigger is light because i put a spring kit in it. I even have a holster although to draw it can be a pain see'n as how you keep drawing and drawing til the muzzle clears leather. :D

  Where is this mag release you speak of?  :lol:   I wish y'all would quit making me look at pictures of this thing.  It's mildly disturbing.

I love it , .... http://youtu.be/CWtRpJucx3U

Funny how that works out, but it seems some folks always need something to worry about.

I need to get into that line of work!

Here's a good shopping/buying source if you haven't found them yet, http://www.pyramidair.com Been thinking about a pistol to practice with in the garage.

Man, I wish we had hogs! Been skunked so far this season. Not one shot :( This is my first year on public land after quitting my lease & it sucks! I'll definitely be looking for a lease next year!

I LOVE, with a capital L, my Taurus 24/7 and I would gladly trade a STAR Super B 9mm for one. I have an OSS/DS model and it is the most accurate 9mm I have ever shot. It has a great trigger and has been reliable for over 2K rounds.   I put the STAR Super B 9mm in the same category as a Llama. Yes they are reliable but beyond that they are not anything special and are actually a "budget" gun.

I'll echo everything Chip said here.  You've got 2 options for attorneys in this thread that will be more than happy to help you out.  Yes, it's a little more than $95, but we're local and available to you through a phone call or email any time.

:wave: ............Ok, I did ask for a deer if anyone got and extra one. Ahhh  Ya'll can disregard that request now please as I just put the 5th one in the freezer so I guess I have enough to last me and the mutt for a while............ :rock:

  They'd probably be more jealous that you had 22LR to shoot :)

If you have a smartphone, I highly recommend downloading an app like MyFitnessPal and using it to track your calories.  It has a huge database of nutritional info for just about every food product out there, including restaurant foods, and it even has a bar code scanner that makes getting the data even easier.  IMO, one of the most important reasons to use an app like this is that it will help you figure out what foods that you didn't think are that bad, are really killing your diet.  For example, putting mayo on your sandwich may cost you 100 calories, whereas sticking with just yellow mustard adds virtually no calories.   You'll learn that you can make less drastic sacrifices that allow you to still eat well and lose/maintain weight.   Good luck on your transformation!

My pleasure....now about the consulting fees...     Addendum...Check the site GrabAGun.Com.   I have bought several from them and been very satisfied.   But to the point...they are offering the Sig Nightmare now for 799. And in the past I believe had the Scorpion at a similar price.

A S&W Model 19, or some of the earlier Smith revolvers. The Ruger GP 100. Sig 1911.   The choices are endless. Surely you have a dream gun. Look at what interests you and pick that one you'd probably never get unless "found" money dropped into your lap.   Still looking?   Give it to me. I can find something. Too darn easily. lol

  ^^^^This. Don't overlook the security six line either. You might be able to pick up a used glock and a ruger .357 for the money of a new sig (226/229/220) etc

Everybody dig deep, I just read an article that said the ,Reverend Al Sharpton, needs approximately 4.5 million for unpaid back taxes. I'm sure you will all join me and dig deeply to help out this irreplaceable savior of all mankind.

  Has always seemed as certain % of TGOers just figure in a couple hundred or so a year in fines as normal part of driving. Really.   - OS

Amen brotha!

  Coon or hog hunter maybe?    I've only seen a few people OCing in TN, and all were dressed pretty normally. No shorts, beaters, or tacti-cools. I did see one driving a school bus (saw him walk from a gas station to the bus) the other day, which I thought was interesting. He was wearing a t-shirt and jeans and had a  Glock in a leather holster. Nothing unusual-looking at all otherwise. 

I bet Walmart put the evidence back in the cooler.

And the criteria for evidence to find you guilty is a lot lower in a civil court. It might be harder to convict you in criminal court but you might also loose your freedom. In civil court you are not risking your freedom but it is also easier for you to loose everything.   And one more thing a lot of people do not realize is anyone can file a lawsuit for anything and it must be heard by a judge. Someone can bring a civil suit against someone else for any reason and no matter how ludicrous the lawsuit is the lawsuit must be heard before it can be thrown out. And call me crazy but I would NEVER find myself in front of a judge without an attorney by my side, no matter how crazy the lawsuit might sound. Fortunately there are also remedies for those who have been hit with a frivolous lawsuit.

Now we're getting somewhere. Your story about your experiences and "relationship" with your buddies girlfriend is much more entertaining to me than the OP about some rube from middle Tennessee getting robbed in Memphis. I can get that any night at 6 o'clock on the local news.. 😳. Just kidding. She sounds like a lovely woman....

  As much as I dislike the Nano, the Curve is much worse looking. jmo

  True. Surprised we haven't run across someone hooking them up to a treadmill to generate electricity or maybe pull a cart.

  One of the dearest problems with tongue in check is the inadvertent ass on face......   :puke:

I am a native Memphian, and have lived here all my life. I am quite fond of the city and most of the people. I have a great deal of civic pride and love to watch the Tigers and the Grizzlies, love Graceland and the Pyramid (which will soon be the worlds largest Bass Pro Store), all the great blues music, and all of the fabulous BBQ places. It's really not as terrible as some folks would lead you to believe. But, there are places and times when you need to watch and be aware of your surroundings. A similar event took place here in an apartment complex almost two years ago strangely enough also a Sunday night, but that young man was carrying a concealed handgun and was well prepared when the balloon went up. When the two young thugs threatened to kill him if he didn't give up his wallet, he pretended to reach for his wallet but instead drew his pistol and shot and killed one of the robbers. He shot at the other one but he turned tail and ran away. I hope your friend is okay, and that he understands what happened here might just as easily take place in any city such as Knoxville, Nashville, Chattanooga or any place in between. Memphis just happened to be where your friend was when this event took place.

bursa guy. We choose to live in Memphis for the same reasons that others choose to live in their communities. It's not for everyone, but neither is your little utopia.

I've got one and I don't even drink coffee.

I can neither confirm or deny that. As you can tell, I'm extremely tactical and opsec minded, which is why I make sure everyone knows how tactically loaded out I am. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  *some* of the high end stuff can make a smaller group than that at 50 yards -- these are expensive competition guns for professionals, yes.  But they can do it, and the small # of shooters who can pull it off need such a gun.   What you are paying for is effectively a hand made gun.  Its hand fitted every which way, the trigger job is carefully done, and more.   Most people don't need all that.  Just like most people don't need a $10k competition "sniper" rifle.   Just like most folks don't need a 1/4 million dollar sports car.  Anyone who has the cash can buy pricy stuff ... whether they need it or not.   A few people "need" it ... they get paid to win competitions, its a tool for their job.  

I made this just for you guys :)

I am a big fan of Milt Sparks Versa Max 2

I do out of respect. I tend to get stopped a lot and I never get a ticker when I inform whether I'm armed or not. It's a good conversation starter besides the reason I was stopped! Plus I think most LEOs realize HCP holders are their last concern

As an officer I actually feel relieved when someone informs me of a HCP and them handing it over. I just assume there is a firearm in every vehicle and those that have a HCP are a lot less of a worry to me. I can not think of a single traffic stop where I have given a citation to someone who has voluntarily handed over a HCP.
