  1. Joe Armstrong, my long time commie anti-gun state rep gets indicted on federal charges, good for him:   http://www.knoxnews.com/news/state/state-rep-joe-armstrong-indicted   - OS

  2. Not going to happen. Too many other representatives who have probably broken the same laws to allow that to happen. That is why we do not see anyone being held accountable in Washington, if they decide to hold one accountable then they will have to hold the majority accountable. They will never be held accountable for breaking the law by those who are also breaking the law. We are a country ran by a bunch of criminals who know they will NEVER be held accountable for their illegal, and unethical, activities because those who would hold them accountable are also a bunch of criminals. And up until relatively recently it was only widespread in Washington but now it appears that we have a bunch of criminals at the local level as well.   I wish those who have been convicted of violating the public's trust would be punished to death. I wonder how many would run their position if that were the case.

  9. I got a DU-HA under the seat storage box for my truck and new quick detach bipod for my AR. Nice gifts, but wife had work and daughter was out running around with friends, so I didn't get much family time.

  10. Hmm. Looks like one rat rolled on another rat. What's most curious though is the length of time involved in the investigation. I'm wondering if the Feds were hoping to catch bigger fish or just going for a larger bag limit? FWIW I don't expect any significant punishment equalling the significance of the fraud involved. Additionally the IRS has put paid to a lot of folks who thought they were going to beat the system.

  11. Falling Skies has gotten really bad over the last couple of seasons. I will watch it, because I have followed it from the beginning, but I am glad this is the last season. Between the three parent alien daughter and last season's word for work JFK speech, I am not sure how much more I can stomach. It does have it's saving graces, well, Pope, since he is the only character they haven't killed off that isn't a Mason yet.   I enjoyed The Last Ship last year.   Right now, my number one show of the summer is Defiance. I don't care much for SyFy's shows, but Defiance really stands apart in my opinion. Good writing and characters that are flawed while being well acted. For anyone that hasn't seen it, if you enjoyed the sci-fi/western aspect of Firefly/Serenity, I find this very similar, while being very different. It is currently in it's third season.

  12. Talking spatula and the best homemade Fathers Day cards that a 11 year old, 9 year old, and a 6 year old could make!  The 2 year old just gave me a hug.  We ate out twice today, I paid both times!  Would not trade it for the world!

  16. This word has been seen across the web in many places, but I actually procured a piece that was actually a part of a SR 71 Blackbird.. The plane was taken out of service and destroyed. A retired af guy that served on a sr71 support element was able to procure some Unobtainium and machine up some cool stuff out of it. When I was stationed in Okinawa Japan I used to stop, wait, and watch the blackbirds take off and land as it was just fun and intriguing to watch. Now I own a piece of an actual flown sr71. The skunk logo is the old mascot of Lockheed Martin skunkworks group, the team that developed and produced the SR 71. So below is my real Unobtainium

  24. Congrats on the case. On the pick'n'pluck foam, I know it's been a recent topic; but I'd like to share a suggestion I was given several years ago. I was told to put the foam in a freezer and let it get very stiff. Then cut with a sharp knife, as it would be easier to hold a shape while it is rigid. Now I only did this with an 18" square piece of foam, so unless you have a chest type freezer, it may be more difficult if you try it. I did find it worked for me. Anyway, good luck shaping for your rifle(?).

  27. excellent article....     to the point and thoughtfully written...   here's what l struggle with...   I consider myself a reasonable conservative, willing to examine and try to understand ideas and ideology that i don't necessarily agree with.  I have an open mind. yet, when i share an article like this, or even ideology like this with someone people whom i disagree with, even ones i think are reasonably intelligent, they cannot even grasp these concepts as reasonable...   and i am left baffled and re examining what i believe...  and always to the same conclusion...  that they are indeed incapable of reason or logic...     how does one share logical and reasonably unbiased text, such as this (it is biased as it clearly understands the 2nd amendment for what it means, as opposed to the "interpretation of the day")   i'm tired of ravenous ignorance and "spin"...   and yet even educated and thoughtful people will read this article, and fail to comprehend even the tiniest bit of it's logic...   why??  (real question)     perhaps i am no different or better??   as i read the articles and editorials that they all deem logical and thoughtful and find it to be pure puke. The difference being, i don't care to impose my peaceful/civil/moral belief on those who disagree with me...

  31. I wonder if the state will vacate all his votes since the first instance of fraud?  I also wonder if they'd require repayment of all benefits received since that time?  That would send a nice message.

  32. There is a large percentage of Puerto Rican people where I live and from conversations with them it seems P.R is riddled with corruption and controlled by cartel type families.    Just because this is the new law doesn't mean the local LEO's there will abide by it. I don't think I would want to be a test case there honestly. It is supposed to be a great place to visit though.

  33. I'm with OS on this one.... Armstrong appears to be in deep dookie if the indictment is true... I read it through, and if he has done this, he is even a bigger crook than i suspected... I think this is interestin in that the investigation started in 2006 (...as i remember...), and has took till now to be completed ... Another thing to think about;... ya have a democrat us district attorney in east tennessee goin after a fellow democrat; it must be pretty heinous stuff, or Armstrong made the wrong people mad...   As OS opined, good for him...

  34. You MUST size new brass. It is rarely, if ever, sized new from the factory. They are intentionally left long so people can size them to their individual rifles.

  38. I recall a thread on Clarksville not too long ago on TGO.  One of our members had spoken with a LEO from there and said he was told that big city gangs like the Bloods and Cripps have come to town.

  39. While I'd like to see more information to test my hypothesis, I think it's simply a byproduct of our societies pussification leading to more guns equaling more problems.     If, as I think, there is a large number of people under 30 in these cases, imagine how many of them have never learned to handle their own problems because of how schools and society in general look at violence.  Having never gotten into any fights at school, or growing up, when things escalate, and the prospect of a real fight is in their face, fright takes over, and they're reaching for a gun if they have one.    That said, the inability of others to manage risk and handle conflicts doesn't matter to my rights under the 2nd Amendment.

  40. The grip safety was a military requirement for the 1911, JMB did not originally design it that way.   Regardless, I've never understood the issue, but then again I've never had a problem holding the pistol.

  41. I find it mildly ironic that the hiring event for a firearms manufacturer is being held in a venue wherein one could not possibly legally carry a firearm made by that manufacturer.  Or any other.  It's a curse I have for noticing things like this I guess.   Still, I'm glad to see Beretta coming to Tennessee and wish them and the job seekers who attend the best.  And safety.  :)

  45. I will make sure to find me a knife fighting class before I use one for self defense. Matter of fact I don't think I have enough gun training to carry. After all being in the military, being in law enforcement as well as carrying a firearm for work in hostile environments probably isn't enough for your requirements. Personally the ONLY people who should not be allowed are those who have a proven VIOLENT history. I don't care if someone is a felon or bat#### crazy as long as they are not violent they should be able to use any means necessary, including fully automatic grenade launching machine guns, to protect themselves even if they do not have a single second of training. You, my friend, are the worst kind of gun owner. One that wants to limits other gun owners for their own reasons.

  46. Read it again. It means the federal government shall not place restrictions against owning or carrying a firearm. I don't feel the state should either.

  47. Anschutz or Walther...They will shoot flies off a target at 50 or 100 yds. Models...anything from a 1411 up to a 2013 with the Annie and  a KK300 for the Walther. Your choice of wood or metal stocks.   Weaver T-36 Scope. You can see the flies at 100 yds. 1/8th MOA click values lets you adjust from the flies tail to his head. You do prefer head shots, right?   Ammo? Tenex or Center X will get the job done.   Range? 200 yds is accurate enough to shoot Mr. Fuzzy Tail   Hope this helps. Lp
