I have posted Bob Bowen's photographs before and have gotten positive responses. He just got back from Alaska after photographing these Brown Bears. Bob is a very humble man and a gifted photographer. He will wait for hours to get the right shot. This photograph below makes me smile. Below is the link to the rest of his photographs. He is not a professional photographer. https://rdbowen.smugmug.com/Nature

I have a lot of deep insight here, but I'm still not ready to talk specifics, especially on a public forum. I'd encourage folks to know a few Muslims to better develop their subjective good versus bad spectrum. I've known more Muslims than I can recall to count, but it's in the several hundreds. Good, bad, middle of the road. All types. Though I'm no fan of Islam, I can't rejoice in the deaths of innocents. It's no better than the ignorant screwheads that do so when there is an attack on us. Have a bit of compassion. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don't have the time to get to know everyone before I hate them. I just have to do a little profiling . . .

I know a few that are really great people. One is a Palestinian with whom I had a lengthy discussion with concerning Palestine. He explained a LOT about the situation there and how Yasser Arafat used his people to bilk the Americans out of billions of dollars over the years. Those that could got out; those who couldn't were oppressed by Arafat with the blame being placed on America. New leaders are doing the same. Another dude is a Pakistani. He gets visibly agitated over what the extremists do when it's mentioned. The guy is a soft-spoken family man...period!   Some of these statements are like claiming all Christians are White Supremacists. :shrug:

yep received multiple packets addressed to resident that demand my response by law. They have all got filed appropriately in the round file basket. I don't like to be threatened by my mail.

Ladies and Gentlemen. I give to you the first XM42 flamethrower to hit the great state of Tennessee. Made by Ion Productions. This. Changes. Everything.  For your viewing pleasure. Now to go find that pesky beaver dam...   For some reason the video showed up on the website on my computer but not on Tapatalk. If anyone knows how to fix that please let me know. [video]https://vimeo.com/139067990[/video]

One report I heard said that the crane got hit by lightning. So, a mosque full of Muslims gets hit by lightning on the anniversary of 9/11. Sounds like someone is trying to get a message through.   The thing I thought was interesting, when 9/11 happened, there was celebrations and dancing in the street by Muslims and their leaders. This tragedy happens and we send condolences. 

I try hard to feel the same way. I've known more than a few Muslims, all of whom I thought to be good people. However, the conspicuous silence from the "good" Muslim groups is telling. When the Westboro Baptist folks started their antics, many other Christian groups were quick to say "we disagree, they don't speak for us." While I haven't been looking, I also haven't seen or heard any other Muslim group speak out strongly against ISIS, Taliban, etc. That's curious. Perhaps they're afraid of making themselves the next target? I also find it curious that ISIS hasn't moved into India. After all, aren't Hindus infidels just like Christians? And India is right next door.

While the freedom loving American Christian in my spirit feels pain at any loss of God's creatures... I also can't forget that the 9/11 bastards successfully lived among us for over a year, and fooled everyone. NO one thought they were evil creatures sent on a mission to kill us.   The fact that has to be accepted is that some people make the conscious choice to be Satan's creatures, and they cease to be God's by their own volition. Satan's gig is to lie, steal, kill and destroy. So is the gig of his followers. Their deceit can be so convincing that it becomes too late too quickly to stop anything.

    So now expect all the anti cities to remove their recreational properties from under "Parks and Recreation Department management" and claim to be able to ban carry that way, eh?   Just takes shuffling a few papers around.   - OS

They must've hired a new marketing firm or something.  I like the way they're going:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-6dWsQMkDE   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2gcNfSbTP4

Went to that on the Youtube page to read the comments, well, you know how some of those are. Anyway a great commercial, I wish they would show those on TV a lot more. Here's another good commercial I watched on Youtube. I like this guy also.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_ReFKjn4u4

  If word games were avoided every lawyer and politician in the country would be out of a job.

After seeing all the great knives being made I thought I would get into the action. I already have three satisfied customers.

Especially considering this forum usually goes out of its way to ensure nobody starts bashing cops just because they are cops. Sent from the backwoods

Thanks guys, ya im moving to middle Tennessee, Nashville/Murfreesboro area. I may just take you up on that! 

  Yep. I can let you shoot a Glock, SR-9 and line up some other tactical tupperwear at either a local outdoor range or indoor range. Pretty much any other member of this forum will do the same. 

Is it just me or does the logo on the box make you wanna watch Big Bang reruns???

I think I figured it out....   I ended up having to seat the bullet just a tad further down because I think it was right on the edge of the top lube groove before. Now that it's seated a little further down, when the bell of the case is taken out with the taper crimp, it actually has a little bit of lead to crimp to instead of the lube groove...   so now it's secured the bullet.   They still fall within it minimum OAL and I just successfully shot a magazine of them with no issues at all

I just pulled it out of the safe, I was wrong mine is a 10" DD and the flange was spot welded to the rail, not the upper. Don't know if you noticed last time we shot I was adjusting a SLR gas block on it.....That gas block is sweet.

The movie Defiance is how I envision a SHTF community away from the population centers.

What did you do about it?

I have a M&P 40 Pro Series. I prefer the M&P because it feels better in my hand. You can't go wrong with either, so choose whichever feels best to you.

  Horsepuckey. I watched the termination of a fellow State Trooper that lied in court about a matter that had nothing to do with the guilt or innocence of the defendant, which is the criteria for a Perjury charge in my home state. He was a senior officer and got pushed out the door just as fast as if he had robbed a liquor store. And all he did is deny that he had said something to the defendant that he actually had said. If a judge gets the idea a cop is lying in court, the cop's career can come to an abrupt halt, and often does, and the lie doesn't have to rise to the level of Perjury, either. So let's not go throwing that "lying cop" malarkey around too fast and loose. Defendants lie their heads off in courts all over the country every day and are never taken to task for it. Cops lose their jobs.

PERFECT!

I like DM Bullard for my SOB holsters. Both the dual carry and the tuckable IWB. He's got a P320 pattern.

Says a lot about the quality of people who elect them.

 They probably did that so you wouldn't have any of those pesky leftovers after filling two 20 round mags.  :whistle:

Not all folks are bad, no matter where they live or their religion. Prayers for the good folks and I have known a few.

Wished it had went right thru the black rock myself

Who knew they had a category called "Grouchy Old Man Head of Household"

 No one by the name of "Resident" lives at my address, but if they find him here, they can throw him in jail for all I care.

Just because they're Muslims doesn't mean they're extremists, and they are still human beings. If they're innocents I feel bad for them. If they are extremists I don't. :shrug:

Nope... can't seem to care.

And the winner is!!! Thank you!!

I haven't received it, but if it ain't addressed to me I'd toss it.

Those 40 round boxes really annoy me.

If there are any NRA certified folks on here that have nothing else to do at that time.... Might make sense to have someone who actually knows what they're talking about there.

  It's always a battle to get to the roadkill before they do!

  I'd be interested too. 1,000 rounds in a month is high for the average shooter, but not high enough to start seeing failures. Hell, 1,000 rounds in a day shouldn't be a big deal for a good handgun. I'm sure about half of us has done close to that at least once.

Well, for those interested in this area of Tennessee, Guns & More is the place to get them!

I haven't looked at the entire thread.  Having said that, I want to remind everyone the we have law enforcement officers on this board for the same reason we are all here - to enjoy a hobby we all have in common.    Several months ago there were a bunch of postings about law enforcement shootings, several of which I took part in.  Someone posted a comment similar to mine here.  It came out that several of our law enforcement members were feeling alienated and began leaving TGO.   I just read where two LEO'S responded to a call and were shot.  They got shot protecting American citizens.     These men and women have a very tough job, where they make split second decisions under stress in a job that doesn't pay that well.  I'm not sure I could make the right call in some of the split second decisions I've seen on news websites. The small percentage of controversial situations make the news while the very vast majority of police activity, which is positive, never gets mentioned.

If I was the rider, I guess the cop would have pulled me off the bike trying to get my gun out of my full retention Safariland ALS holster. Unless of course he knew where the thumb release button was. Not a cool move IMO. I just pray I never get pulled over on my way to/from a 3gun match... "Sir, just how many guns and bullets do you have in your car?" :rofl:

If you say no, I'll bet you're rather likely to see the business end of his gun. And probably a few of his friends. Not being forthcoming with regard to being armed would likely have a similar end result should the officer find out unexpectedly. That said, the safest place for a gun is in its holster. The one time I've been pulled over while carrying went very similar to yours. He asked where it was, I told him, and he said leave it there and keep your hands on the steering wheel. Yes sir.
