Simply declare that 9mm is superior to .45 and they will all congregate.

Well here they are....my versions of a Karambit. First off is a matched pair or 1/4" thick 1095 carbon steel. The have African Blackwood scales and SS pins. It's about 9 1/4" long with a 4 1/4" blade. It has a pattern etched into the blade but my picture taking apparently sticks cause it's a bit hard to see it. It has thumb and heel jimping and is a stout and dangerous blade. You can see some of the rock pattern ground into the spine as well. They come with black kydex sheaths. Note....there are some lines on a couple of pictures that are not on the blades. Next is a lighter pair made from 3/16" thick 1095 carbon steel with a different handle shape and Bubinga scales and mosaic pins. The over all grip is less that the previous set but still very good. It also has a pattern etched into the blade and slightly less rock pattern grinding on the spine. It does have thumb jimping on the spine as well. It is also 9 1/4" long but the blade is a bit longer at 4 3/4". It also comes with black kydex sheaths.

Because we really know that .38 Super is the best........

My custom 10mm

If anyone in the Knoxville area wants to see a display of 1911's that's sure to make you drop to your knees and shout "Praise be!" go over to SIA (Security Investment Appraisals) on Middlebrook Pike. One of the owners has dedicated an entire room of that very nice shop to his personal collection of milsurp goodies including probably 40 or so old 1911's. I didn't count them all but it is a lot! All in excellent condition. It's really a beautiful sight.

OK, I'll play . . . . here are a couple that followed me home . . . . .

I have succumbed to the siren call of quiet PCP air gunning. I am trading my 200yrd .22lr Cracker Gun (10/22) for Plinker4life's AA S200. Why? Quiet, effective varmint control in suburbia, accurate as heck, made by CZ (I actually can't remember how many CZ .22s I have owned), light weight so can carry on a legit squirrel hunt, has custom moderator (very very very quiet), target trigger that allows me to one-hole this thing at 30 yrds off a bag, can shoot it in my backyard all day long, multi shot, .177 has less collateral damage potential, easy to pump up with hand pump.

Ken, as I briefly read thru this thread it came across loud and clear that you have a lot of disdain for the LEO community, I don't know why, and don't really care, but that is the message you are putting out. What you need to realize is that while a few in this group might have similar feelings to you, the majority of the group is extremely supportive of law enforcement officers and their willingness to deal with (on our behalf) the societal scum, and idiots like the guys in the video. I respect LEO's just like I respect our military personnel. They get up everyday, kit up, and walk out the door to face whatever this jacked up world is going to throw at them, and they do it for relatively little pay, and with an increasing lack of support at all levels. Are there bad apples in the group, sure.....just like there is in everything (to include TGO). But to minimize or disrespect what the force does as a whole based on a few bad apples, or to treat the guys walking the streets with disrespect because you don't agree with the law of the land is crap. If you want the laws/policies changed you have to come at it from a smarter angle than terrorizing the sheep and antagonizing the sheepdogs.

Just walked in the den and heard this.... http://www.wbir.com/news/local/tennessee-lawmaker-proposes-second-amendment-sales-tax-holiday/404681290

Right now, I've got AMT quadruplets Hardballer Longslide - 45 ACP - 6" Hardballer Standard - 45 ACP - 5" Commando commander sized - .40 S&W - 4.25" (this is a tough one to find, it's NOT the officer sized Skipper) AutoMag III - .30 Caliber Carbine long slide - 7"

Used to be. I used to own a beautiful Air Arms S410. Brass bolt handle, brass silencer adapter....sigh. I put a LOT of bunnies in the freezer with that thing!

You can probably bet that when this crew starts tossing baggage overboard, she'll be at the top of the list... Sometimes there's a logic to telling outright lies. It's a test to see who goes along and who cries foul. You make a list and know who'll play ball when you really start implementing your plans.

Chuck Norris wouldn't fit?

Lots of 1911 guys on here that will entertain conversation on there favorite pistol. Lots of plastic gun fans too that dont mind jumping in cause deep down they love 1911s too. Just post open handgun forum and there'll be a kickstart following.

Well... if you gotta do some killin', you might as well make sure they's killed

Ok, I want to shoot them all ....

http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Tire-Size-Calculator They will fit. They will be 1.8% bigger. You could also try a 225/55/16. They would be 1.5% smaller. 10mm greater width will be spread on either side, so 5mm wider on a side. That is nominal. Check other trim levels of the same car, or the Mercury/Lincoln variants, odds are good they came with different wheel/tire size combinations, maybe with something in 225 or wider. http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Tire-Size-Calculator/215-60R16/225-60R16/225-55R16 For reference my Toyota came stock with 185/70/13s, I currently run 225/45/17s. I have run a dozen different sizes in the past. Going 10mm wider is not going to be much of an issue at all. For disclaimer purposes, my car is HIGHLY modified. This is an extreme circumstance and my suspension/body has been altered from stock specs greatly. It is only mentioned to show that I have a modicum of experience with the topic. However I am not a professional tire guy, take my advice with a grain of salt.

Beautiful .38's by the way....Never shot one, would love to.

Hey, a firecracker placed carefully in the proper place could save your life. Good luck with that, any firearm fired in my direction is enough to make me; first take cover and then return fire. I don't care what caliber I have with me, they all beat rocks.

You keep saying there's free candy but where is it?

She's a total flake.

Now you've done it, drool all over my key board.

I thought ARO Matt said to Michael, "You had me at Hello".

Tanfo is just 2 Glocks. The CZ Custom Accu-Shadow is 3-4 Glocks. Your wallet thanks me more for the Tanfo than the CZ. All you had to do was call me. I have a bunch of CZs that need a new home. Even would have told you the parts needed to make it even more smooth.

I am sure most of you know this but entering the code NRA10 at checkout at Gander Mountain gets you 10% off on the website.

This site is very informative on anything related to the 1911.

Welcome to TGO.

Welcome to TGO. There are plenty of 1911 lovers here.

That's a beautiful Hardballer Longslide, I had a Backup .380 years ago but sold it. The little tang on the mag release drove me crazy constantly ejecting.

Nah, I am just a smarta$$

So you're not familiar with our local version of these idiots that decided it was a good idea to OC a rifle in front of a high school, pacing up and down the sidewalk back and forth until the cops arrived, and this was right after a couple of school shootings occurred. I mean, that's perfectly legal too and no one should bat an eye. They should just not pay any attention to a man walking back and forth on the sidewalk with a rifle strapped to him while school is in session? Then, they should only respond if that guy decided to unshoulder the gun and start firing on the school which would take about 3 seconds, and the police take 5 minutes to get there. #### that, they should have had his face imprinted on the bumper of a cruiser so he didn't have time to react. Like DaveTN said, no one except the person with the gun knows what is going through their mind. Purposefully antagonizing situations because of some twisted interpretation that you are saving the world by being a youtube freedom fighter does zero good for the 2A, in any manner, no matter how you try to spin it.

I carry a .380 g42 or 9mm g43 when I'm dressed in a suit. All other times it's a g19mm.

Ah, the age-old argument that has no answer. Did anybody read the OP...in General Chat? I'd be proud and walking tall carrying nothing more a Bersa Thunder .22. I can pump 400 grains of lead into something with a quickness.

I keep a .32 gun in my pocket for fun. I'll carry a bigger gun from time to time as location and wardrobe allows, but I haven't been to a non .gov building yet where my p32 wasn't able to go with me.

I trust a 22lr a lot of the time when I am out and not going to be in a hood but just someplace like Grocery store and I trust my 380's a lot when I am going to be other places. People can say what they want about 380's but I have full faith in them. If a person with a 380 puts the first 1 or 2 rounds where they need to be it will do it's job just fine IMHO.

With the way the world is on edge about attacks They are very lucky someone including the police didn't open up on them both. I hope they are both charged with a Felony and loose their 2nd Amendment priviledges because they have proven the are not mentally stable enough to own a gun..................JMHO

A hit with a .22 short causes more damage than a miss with a 20mm.

Some folks are just plain stupid!

The trigger on my Block20 is ok but not great. I thought about getting a Pyramid trigger from the block store to drop in or a different connector at the least. I love he gun though. I'm acctually a little hesitant to change it because I can shoot it so well, but it is a little "spongy" too. I don't know of anyone to recommend in your area though.

Pig farmers in Ohio are doing their best, say the experts, but there's too many bacon eaters out there who are depleting the frozen pork belly supply. In a pig's eye..... I believe that Disney is making too many cute little porker movies and stirring the libs up to save our bacon......uh, their bacon......uh......well, get what you can while you can. http://stlouis.cbslocal.com/2017/02/01/americas-bacon-supply-is-seriously-depleted-prices-surge/

The business/Chamber of Commerce types will oppose this. Maybe not publicly, but they'll get the message to those politicians they pay good money to leverage as needed. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk just to give Oh Shoot something to be grumpy about.

If you bid on that one, you might want to bid on this one if it stays cheap. It is in the same place and I bet you could work out a trade with someone. 220 lbs (approx.) Fired 300 Win Mag brass http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=11849721 More 5.56 too http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=11849508&convertTo=USD There is also .50 and 7.62 lots Or you could just try and reload these. lol http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=11849581&convertTo=USD or these http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=11872219&convertTo=USD Man I wish I could pick up some of these. I would need a tumbler the size of a concrete truck though. lol

Will it kill it, probably with perfect shot placement. Will it do it quickly and ethically, not for me. If she isn't in a neighborhood, use a 223 or something similar. At a Minimum, use a 22mag or 17HMR if you insist you have to use a rimfire. I know people don't like Coyote's, but there is no sense in being inhumane about it. There is too much room for error with a rimfire that makes it a poor choice for me.

Welcome. Just remember, this ain't Philly and you'll do fine.

Welcome sir.
