Folks like to talk smack about Memphis and it being a leftist hive in the state. There is some amount of truth to that, however, Memphis is not Portland, Seattle, or NYC. They don’t go for that “burn down our own home” crap. Didn’t do it in 2020, ain’t gonna do it now.7 points

And when they or anyone else does, I’ll laugh at them for calling it an “insurrection”. Was it wrong? Yeah. But it’s silly to claim that it was substantively worse than sustained nightly attacks on cities during the previous summer. There was a months long nightly siege of federal buildings like the federal courthouse in Portland where they repeatedly attempted to burn it down with people inside of it. They set fire to St. John’s Episcopal AKA “America’s Church” across the street from the white house. So no, I’ve never gotten too worked up about what was mostly an unguided tour where the only person who died was shot by Capitol Police.6 points

Yes. It was a protest turned riot. But if we compare and contrast with any of the riots that roared throughout the entire 2020 Summer of Love, it was a very minor one in terms of injuries, deaths, and property damage.3 points

I purchased this some years ago and used it in cowboy action side matches. Extremely accurate and fun to shoot. Barrel length (measured) is 32 inches. The rear elevator sight is a Shaver which I believe was an add on. The front sight appears to be a Lyman. The rifle is in good shape however the buttstock has some discoloration from what may have been a solvent soaked rag being left on it. (Wasn’t me) I tried to capture this in the pictures. As I am leaving the 45-70 business, it will include: 45-70 Brass 52 New Starline 170 Fired Starline (de-primed and cleaned) 70 Fired Winchester (de-primed and cleaned) Bullets Approximately (I counted by weight) 1000 mixed variety bullets. All packed separately and tagged with manufacturer and weight etc. Exception. One mystery bag of 100 cast with no brand info. I am close to Lenoir City Just west of Knoxville and willing to travel a reasonable distance for an established TGO member. Quigley is calling your name. Asking $1400 $1200 $1000 for the package – no trades sought at this time. Please PM me with any questions. Thanks for looking.2 points

A "services offered, services needed" with locality. In these troubled times of woe and want, it might be nice to support fellow members of the board with their projects or if one were to be a practitioner of said Trade or vocation, might be amenable to providing services for fellow members. Ad example "Wanted in Tullahoma area, well driller for water well". Inversely, "well driller available Tullahoma and 150mi in any direction, call for TGO prices!" I've found this a great way to get good deals, finish projects, avoid taking chances on Facebook flakes, and most importantly SUPPORT FELLOW GUNNIES! Just a thought. In my previous vocation as one of the nation's premier FAL, AK, HK, GALIL, AR builders and firearms refinishers i was able to trade all manner of needed services for my labors, from legal representation to dentistry, BARTER remains untaxable and a great way to exercise independence from the ever-intrusive State.

Bought REM 742 at 14(many years ago) but my Dad was with me. If I had done so without his permission the ATF would have been the least of my worries. I am thankful ever day for the great parents I had.2 points

Oh. Agreed. Just seems like the one in Memphis was a complete dud. i think the group organizing it would like it to be a way bigger deal than it actually seems to be.2 points

I've recently moved to TN from Maryland. Until Bruen, very few MD residents could even get an HGP because MD was a "May Issue" state and your right to carry hinged on your "good ad substantial" reason for needing to carry a firearm. I started carrying in MD in 2007-- even though OC was allowed by law (with a permit), it just wasn't prudent to carry OC there with the population of Karens in MD far exceeding the number of registered Republicans in TN . Post Bruen- HGP issuance in MD skyrocketed... I mean like Space X level. The folks on the gun forum there who had been living in 2A hell for decades (and adamantly fighting for literally decades for their 2A rights-- (I mean walking the streets picketing and rallying and testifying at the MD general assembly annually etc. level of fighting) decided to have a members meet-up at one of the local Mission BBQ's not far from the Capital in Annapolis-- on condition that everyone agreed to Open Carry. It was a sight to see-- a mini demonstration of "freedom" in that god awful 2A desert. Funny thing-- nothing crazy or silly happened. I'm sure the venue helped. None of those gents and lasses would generally advocate for just exercising OC on the daily (well maybe 1). But having a group of folks show up at a random establishment from time to time, all open carrying, all on good behavior and just having a good time, seems like a pretty safe and innocuous way to flex that muscle occasionally. If folks feel that strongly about it-- safety in numbers... One last thing... It's good to live in a state where we can exercise choice.2 points

Offering an early Winchester 1917 rifle in .30-06 caliber. The circled star stamped on the receiver is an indication of early production.

Safety Reminder for Buyers and Sellers This is an automatic reply meant to protect you as a buyer and a seller on TGO. Use the Buyer/Seller Feedback feature to research who you are dealing with. Please come back and leave feedback for each other after the transaction is complete. Your experience will help others. Never agree to use an electronic form of payment to buy or sell a gun! None of the electronic payment services will protect you against fraud in a firearms transaction. They all have terms of service FORBIDDING the use of their services to buy/sell guns. DON'T DO IT. Be very wary of anyone who insists on brokering a deal in private or outside of TGO. Scammers almost always prefer to operate out of the public eye. The complete Trading Post Rules and also some more helpful suggestions can be found by clicking this link. Everyone should read them at least once! ~~~ This was an automatic reply ~~~1 point

I had every intention of going to check out the protest in Franklin yesterday, but I got stuck working on the house all day and Just didn’t get out that way. I really wanted to go see the big nothing burger, I would suspect it was less than a dozen people. I was reading that there is a much bigger group that is trying to protest nationwide next weekend, at EVERY Tesla dealership. I’m sure that in CA there were be some major carnage but I don’t know if there will be here in TN, I hope not. I agree with Trump that this is straight up terrorism.1 point

I think talking a lot produces a lot of extra spit and mucus in my stomach. The stomach wants to get rid of the extra and get more food when I eat. I spit up clear liquids, not food while gagging. I'm worn out afterwards and don't want to try to eat anymore. 3/19 the doctor ordered a visit with a gastro doctor on 3/26. I haven't got a call from any yet. I'm doing better eating, we might go fishing instead. Feeling a bit stronger, I got out and did some work instead of sitting in the bed on the laptop all day. I have a mountain of leaves in the yard, I tackled some of them with the lawn vac. 2 vac bags stuffs a 13 gallon trash bag. I got 2 filled Friday and 2 Saturday. Rain to start about 2 pm today, hope to get 2 more bags before it's here. The lawn vac has some age to it and the port that the pickup tube fits in is breaking out in chunks. On the last bag about a fourth was spilling onto the ground. Less force to get trimmings into the bag. Had to stop a lot to clear discharge tube. Guess I'll look for a new one. I've had the charger on the truck battery for week. I tried to crank it, no go. May have to boost it off then head to the store for a new one. Wish I had backed it into the driveway. I'll have to back the car into the side yard, back the truck down the driveway then pull car across the drive. Lots of extra moves. I checked the stack of lumber under the portable carport. Weather had changed the coloring, I'll take them to the midtown workshop to be planed. I dug into the garage to get 2 12 ft eastern cedar boards from above the side window. They have a bow to them. The blocks will be 7 1/4" long. I'll cut 15" sections and run them through the planer before squaring and final cuts then drill.1 point

As @NoBanStan said, I had a couple of issues with my P-09C today too. It only locked open with one round left in the mag once, but I had a LOT of light primer strikes. It might be the Monarch ammo, because it didn't happen when I switched to some cheap Blazer aluminum rounds. I also had a couple of incidents when it didn't wanna go into battery without a bump when changing mags too. That didn't give me the warm and fuzzies I was hoping for 1st time shooting it. As far as accuracy goes, I got my Holosun EPS dialed in within 2 or 3 rounds and it was as accurate and easy to shoot as I could ever hope for. I'm guardedly optimistic that a good clean/lube and better ammo will give me more confidence in this gun, but for now, I sure as heck ain't gonna carry it.1 point

I'm getting really tired of both sides cherry picking examples to prove that their side is less violent or extreme than the other. There are PLENTY of examples of each side acting like idiots. Party politics is destroying the country. Those that repeatedly engage in it, and blindly support their leader, are part of the problem.1 point
