Welcome, for a minute there I thought we had our first Kenyan member.

  If I had my way, that would get you 6 months free benefactor membership. :D

At the risk of getting a warning from the mods......Hillary Clinton can kiss my ass.......no really.

  That's what "everybody" said about his reelection bid in '12, too.   - OS

This is a nice little graduation present for a fellow TGO member's son. 1095 carbon steel with black scales and orange liners as requested by the customer.

Well, too bad Kwik doesn't have a carry permit any more, perfect venue for him to open carry.   - OS

Funny how only some minorities matter to some people...

The article is a wee bit dated...June 2014...   But still, no big surprise out of that old bat...I tend to ignore anything she says, makes life a bit easier...:)

I used to be that way, until one of those yellow jackets stung me in the face. Now, if I can kill them, I will.

That boy just ain't right.

It's moving!  It has left Knoxville and is supposed to be here tomorrow!

It's a fun hobby.

Have you got a target revolver yet? If you need sights on a J-frame…. Don’t take the shot.

38/357 is easier to reload IMO. No special crimp die needed. Most folks just use the bullet seating/crimping die that come in the three die set . Go with carbide dies for sure.

IF she's right then so be it.  We'll just start our own southern anti-leftwingtreehugginhippe group.  Ragheads can have jihad, we can have YeeHawd.

My first handgun I carried last year was a HighPoint 380. This year it's a Diamondback Full Size 9mm.  Have shot both at the range many times without a single FTF, FTE or misfire.  Being over 70 I don't really care what people think about me or what I have anymore.  :rofl:

  They're both right. Without 1307 saying it's ilegal, then it's OK, which makes dawgdoc right. But because 1307 exists, then you have a myriad of exceptions and defenses, OhShoot is right.   In Tennessee with regard to firearms laws, the philosophical approach expressed by dawgdoc is not the safest way to go about things. You don't go looking for firearms laws in TN saying you can't do something and if it doesn't exist then you can. 1307 more or less slams that door and means you have to go looking for things which the law says you  can do.

Lol

Makes you wanna just hide your gun and not worry about all this pettiness

  I'm afraid you have that backwards when it comes to firearm laws here.   TN starts out with the premise in 39-17-1307 that it's illegal to possess a loaded firearm, period. Then adds a litany of defenses, affirmative defenses, and exceptions which allow one to deviate from that.   Most states do indeed start with the "all is legal" except for this and that and the other thing, and TN does also with many areas of the code, but not loaded firearms. That's one of the reasons we've had such a problem prying firearm freedoms back I do believe, because of that philosophical mindset that's been there since the late 1800's, that all was because of Jim Crow legislation to begin with, and got into our very state Constitution.   Note that having an HCP is still technically only a "defense" to 1307, not even an "exception". Hell, even the long time coming possession in vehicles is now stronger, as it is an "exception".   - OS

So far, from what I have read, the shooter, who was not GZ, may be stalking him.  He has already accused GZ of road rage before, which apparently wasn't true.  The headlines make it sound like GZ shot at someone, but it looks like the opposite is true.  The police have said that GZ didn't shoot at anyone.   There is a picture of GZ's truck with a dark-tinted passenger window with a bullet hole in it; it doesn't seem believable that GZ supposedly waved a gun at the other driver, then rolled up his window, and then the shooter shot at GZ because he felt threatened at that point.  Sounds like a guy who shot at GZ and then concocted a story that he knew people wanted to believe.

Laws don't allow things, they make them illegal.  A simple way to put it is that everything is legal until a law makes it illegal (prohibited).  Therefore you won't find a phrase that open carry is "allowed."  You also won't find a phrase that open carry of a handgun with a valid permit is prohibited, either.  Therefore it is legal.   That is my simple view of the matter.

That old Hag has more murders on her hands than 99.9% of the American public does!

I don't believe GZ should be in prison, I do believe the man is an idiot of extreme proportions. 

Huh? Someone attempted to murder the guy and it's his fault???

If you're wanting AR parts, a complete AR, ammo for an AR, etc., Now is the time you'll soon be wishing you could go back to, where the stuff is plentiful and cheap. Don't let it slip by.

Awesome time, very fun stages. It was nice to get to meet you jumprun13k.

Didn't realize you were a pipe smoker too. We'll have to meet up for a pipe and range day.

Disturbing. Don't forget. Everyone is out to kill you. On the road, the greenways, everywhere. I admit, I've occasionally walked/jogged without my piece if I had no good way to carry and conceal it at the time. (On that same green way, BTW). Not anymore. With the possibility of ISIS sneaking across the border, the thugs and random crazies, and the general sense of chaos that seems to be spreading about, I'll be armed pretty much everywhere from now on.

  Sorry, but I had to post the Monty Python video clip...   [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAW6D21ICdg[/media]

Nice, interesting and ergonomic looking knife.  Great work as always.  Looks like you have really developed your kydex sheath making skills, as well!

NOPE!!!   I do not care what you call them! I want them all dead... if they are somehow beneficial.. so be it ,but be beneficial somewhere else..   Sucks having to carry an Epi -pen around as it is..I do not need these around me ... :ugh:

George Zimmerman is the gift that keeps on giving for the anti-gun crowd. 

"Relative", "freedom"....still a lot better than most places ever though.

Lots of new guys asking a lot of very specific questions today. Makes one go hmmm. There are many threads discussing the codes. May want to start with a search.

"Sounded like the Chinook of the insect world"  HAHAHAHAHHAAH that is true but funny !!!!

Most likely .

Used to do leather work many years ago. Mostly leather carving, I still have the tools and stamps and your welcome to them if your ever near Chattanooga. Just send me a PM. Tandy leather is a good place to start.

He's definitely a magnet for trouble. I can't believe he stayed in FL after the Martin trial. If he had any sense, he'd have moved somewhere like Utah or Idaho where he'd have fewer enemies.

Misleading title. Shot "AT," not shot.   There's a difference.

Living in Mt. Juliet off and on my entire life I can't say that I've ever really felt that I was in any danger anywhere here. Times are quickly changing around here though.

LOL. "Ugly as Sin & FUGLY" get used a lot in commenting on H-P pistols. The reduced recoil is another frequent comment. Weight and mass coupled with a good stout spring can sure do a lot to dampen the recoil impulse. Couple that with the grip angle and all of a sudden you realize the people who designed and built that comparatively inexpensive gun were pretty darn smart.

I know snakes have a very important role to play and I would NOT wanna deal with the rat and mice problem were all snakes to vanish.......but the only good snake is a dead snake. I may not be "scared" of them but I hate the dam things. One good thing about snakes, they actively avoid humans, noise and high traffic areas. I'm with snakes like I am most other things in life I hate, stay away from me and I'll stay away from you. Peace through defined boundaries.

I ran across these today while weed eating my tree line. This is two snakes wrapped up together. I thought they were dead. Then they gave me a disgusted look and crawled away. What do you think they were doing????  :yum:

Cut and dremel the A2 down? Nothing's more secure than a pinned gas block.
