  1. Those are the right words. Now win the general election and do it.

  2. Just wanted to share my Sig P220 Elite. So far it's seen 1400 hiccup free rounds and is dead on accurate. I barely have to do anything to get rounds on target.

  4. I have learned long ago that a person that is running for a position will say what ever he believes the people want to hear at any given time. Trump is not stupid and he knows how many gun owners there are in America and how many votes he can gain by saying what he knows we want to hear. The proof is in the puddling. If he is elected his actions will be far more important than his words prior to his election........................jmho

  5.   As far as allowing military personnel to carry on base, etc. I wonder how much he could do as 'Commander in Chief' that would not have to have Congressional approval.  Would be fitting if he went the Obama route to reverse a lot of anti-gun crap.   Along those same lines, he could veto any new anti gun rights legislation that comes to his desk and instruct the agencies that fall under the Executive branch to 'enforce existing rules and do not create any new ones.'  Keeping the ATF from coming up with any new rules could be huge in itself.  Even better if he could order them to pare down and streamline existing rules.

  6. I doubt Trump will get any of this done because of the Rino's in the Senate. Corker and Alexander being two of them.

  7.   We've had several more problems with Tapatalk behind the scenes lately.  56FordGuy can tell you more about what he was experiencing.  In fact, I believe another forum he is a part of jettisoned Tapatalk because of how squirrelly it is.   I am not committing to keeping it.  Not saying I won't, or at least not for a while longer, but JohnC is right:  The new Version 4 native mobile ability is very nice.  AND it shows you all of the IPBoard features, unlike Tapatalk.

  8. While you are betting that common sense would prevail I'm not sure it would. If there was a healthy dose of common sense left in this country Obama would have never been elected to a second term....The Hildabeast would be in prison instead of running for president, illegals wouldn't have more rights than citizens and on and on and on.

  10. Not a good move, but it is on all of us to make sure a weapon is unloaded when handling. I would be upset as well, but I don't trust anyone who hands me a gun that I haven't seen cleared. If they took the gun without checking it, they are just as much at fault.

  12. I sold a couple of Glocks to a member here. Rushed myself and left a round in the chamber of one. Goes to show no matter how long you've been handling firearms, a mistake can be made. I've apologized profusely but no reply. Don't make an idiotic mistake as I did. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

  15.   You didn't overlook it.  :)   I am roughly saying sometime within the next 2-3 weeks.  I have a few things that I am still trying to iron out with the process, one of them being me taking some time off from work so that I can do this uninterrupted, during the week, when Invision Power's technical support department is staffed and responsive.

  17. Glad no one was injured. A teachable moment for sure. But having the sac to own up to it on here says a lot too. I don't care who you are, you hand me a gun and I clear chamber or check for clear chamber. If that offends you oh well. Better your ego be shattered than me or YOU shot.

  22. I have been looking for some 231 powder to replace the Solo 1000 that I've been using for years and can no longer get. 231 too has been hard to find. Last weekend I went to the gun show in Knoxville. First place I went is the booth in the back right hand corner that had the big RELOADING SUPPLIES sign over it. David looked like he had a ruff night of it but his prices were the best in the show. After buying there I did see it in other vendors booths but they were still gouging everybody with high prices. Thanks David for holding the line. You will be getting my business whenever I can.

  23. When I safety check a weapon and show the person it's empty, and they still check it when it's in their hands, I smile and feel better. Glad it turned out without a bad ending and thanks for sharing. None of us can ever be too careful.

  24. If they are offended by my checking the weapon, then imagine how offended they would be at my reaction to it discharging unexpectedly... Honestly I have been handed "unloaded" guns that turned out to be loaded. I politely hand over the cartridge and give thanks for good gun handling and muzzle discipline. I have always received an apology and we had a brief discussion about the reminder we all just got. Lessons learned keep us all safe!

  26. they will not leave, they all are just a bunch of hot air.  i say to them and the people that hate it here,,, leave.  not hard to understand, just leave.   i have lived in several different nations over the years, third world, second world, and first world.  i tell you there is no place like home.  we have got it good here.  i can go anywhere in american and drink the tap water and not end up in the e.r. three hours later.  my power stays on 24/7, not out four hours plus each day.   i can walk outside my house and not get shot, kidnap, or blown up.   so to the a$$ hats that don't like it here, just leave.

  28. You can’t argue that you can drink alcohol unless you argue “under the influence”. Problem with that is that it doesn’t require being intoxicated or impaired, and has no BAC levels, or even the requirement that you be offered a BAC test. So unless there is case law on it I would guess it would be you and the Officer showing up in front of the Judge and testifying as to what happened; and him making a decision. Good luck with that if you have been drinking and carrying.

  29. Every time I open this thread I expect to see some form of Game of Thrones meme because of the title.... I am looking forward to the update for the better mobile version. I hate Tapatalk so use the mobile version now and it works but could certainly be better. It would be great if you could see member location with the new mobile version.

  33. It sounds like the new software will be a little more streamlined and intuitive - once we figure it out.  As far as being more like Facebook, Twitter, etc. I wouldn't know the difference there because I don't use Twitbook or similar things.  Still, it sounds like the new software borrows features from those things that will be nice.  Tapatalk?  I don't really care.  The first thing I do whenever I visit any forum of which I am a member on my cellphone or tablet is go to the bottom of the home page and click on 'full version' so that it looks exactly like what I see when I log on with a PC.   Now, since I got that out of the way, I think there was some discussion earlier in the thread about cheese?  So, we'll all be getting free cheese as a reward for being patient through all of this?  Awesome!  Just to throw it out there, I like Manchego.  Asiago is pretty good, too.  Feta is pretty good when I'm in that kind of mood but I'd have to have some Kalamata olives to go with it.  (So, will the new forum have an, "I'm being a smartass," button for people like me?)

  34. I've been having issues with Tapatalk not connecting and a few other things on several different forums lately. They released a new plugin that we installed on another forum, which caused a myriad of new issues both in the app and on the full site. Even after removing the plugin (which created even more problems) our tech folks are still struggling to get it sorted out. As a user trying to contact TT is pointless, all they do is forward the complaint to the forum owners. There's not much a forum owner can do about a problem in the Tapatalk app. Personally, I'm about done with Tapatalk. It's nice being able to access all my forums with one app, but the app is such a headache it's not worth bothering with. I may continue using it for photo hosting, but really I couldn't care less if it went away. If the other forum I visit had a better mobile skin I would just delete Tapatalk entirely. I highly doubt I continue using it on TGO, especially if the new version of the forum has an even better mobile view.

  37. BINGO.     Chiefs always claim they speak for all LEO's, and it's not likely a LEO will challenge the Chief if he/she wants to keep their job. Many Chiefs are just politicians and will follow the script the current Mayor writes for them. I always said Surpas had a string on his back so Bredesen and Dean could make his mouth move while they said what they wanted him to say. Now, there's some exceptions like the Chief of Detroit.

  38. Sounds like you will have enough on your plate without adding the "read only" page. For me personally I think being offline for a few hours to upgrade is 100% acceptable without a read only page.

  39. I know stuff like that is hard to share. I for one am appreciative of these stories. It shows even the best of us are fallible and none of us, ever, need get complacent. Glad everything worked out fine. Fortunately a cheap lesson for all of us.

  40. Browning made the BPR for 4 years as someone mentioned earlier.  I just recently sold one in .30-06.  It was a fine rifle.  They discontinued it because of lack luster sales.    A bolt action is going to be more accurate. a semi auto rifle will have less recoil so it was a hard road to hoe for the pump rifle.

  44. So I was up doing laps around the bed and decided to snap a picture. I didn't even know I was pregnant but with the screwing I took six months ago I figure it looks about right. Just hope I am not going to be giving birth in another three months. I have two small incisions on either side of my belly button and they feel no more sore than when I got shot. The one that hurts like a mother is the incision where they went through my belly button, it is still stinging. The area where the mesh is hurts no worse than before, at least right now. I suspect that will change tomorrow. Thanks for all the kind words, thoughts and prayers.

  46. The company sent me some renderings of what the finished product will look like. I took it a step further and did my own rendering in Photoshop to convey that "negative space" in the design will be stainless steel showing through. The black areas are laser engravings, permanently etched into the tumbler in black. This is just the RTIC tumbler but I have both this and the ORCA in 30oz sizes coming to me so that I can take photos and post for you all to see and then begin ordering.
