Ladies and Gentlemen,     Dave has capped this run out at 40, he has people SCREAMING for his Godfathers and allocated 60 for us. Dave put all the parts away for this run, so we only have 6 more open slots, all of you who have numbers higher than 40 and other ones I have discussed are good to go,      There are only 6 more knives left and I have them ALL sold on another forum for MORE money if you all do not claim them and pay for them by the 15th, of October, this run is DEFINITELY happening people  :usa:  

  Because he didn't use an AR15 to decapitate them.

crazy is crazy no matter the religion they follow

Lets hope responders copycat that deputy too.

but... ^^ Good guy "with a rifle".     On the whole, I hate to see this, and I'm glad it wasn't worse.  Carry folks - everywhere you can - no need to be a nervous freak about it (staying in orange or red), but live in yellow, calm, alert, and aware.     ... and if you can help it, don't go where you cannot carry.  simple enough.   ... oh yeah... and train... train... train - so that you can be a help in time of need and not a liability.   -if more attacks like this begin to happen, I would bet the perpetrators will be very quick to exclusively target GFZ's.  - all the more reason to avoid them.  I hope the owners/administrators of GFZ's get their head out of the sand.   -stay safe.

Because he is a muslim and we don't want to disparage him.

Well yet again I procrastinated on get my food plots put in but have decided that I'm still going to do it. A couple other TGO friends are coming out to help put in food plots and build shoot houses/blinds, tomorrow and Sunday after church. We've got about 130ac here at my parents place and it is home to the 3 longest most active rub,scrape lines that I have ever seen but I've just not had the time to devote to clearing stuff out so that I could ever get to it to hunt. On to the point of the post, This year I decided to really do the damn thing so as part of that I went and bought 3 trail cams, wanted more but, hey they ain't cheap. I put one of them out on monday and have been swapping the card out every morning and seeing doe on it every am and pm... until this morning. Last night I had 2 shooter 8 points come in, one is big and the other is really big so I decided I'd share pic of the bigger of the two just to make sure the fever has set in on everyone!

^^ Any thought or comment that the man who stopped this threat was deficient in his actions in any way cannot be taken seriously. That is all.

OK great science discussions however Ithink we are off topic.  Refresher https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-mWq5B6sU0

Alarm set for 4am. Bow and thermacell are waiting next to my camo. I look at lunar tables but don't put a lot of faith in them. They show tomorrow hunting hours as poor but damn it will be good to be out in the woods regardless.

So was this a moderate muslim or radical muslim.......oh wait......never mind. :rolleyes:

5 left folks

  :woohoo:  :woohoo: :woohoo:  :woohoo:  :woohoo:  

Willis,   Just sent my money for #34 to match my knife from the previous run.   Thanks

Looking very good! :up: get us a range report ASAP please. Also FYI; when selecting your image use the link tagged img and your pictures will show up like this:

So here we have a "religion" who's favorite method of execution is to behead Christians. Revelations anyone?

This is the best way. I just got this sheath from Two Drunken Celts leather. Its a small blade cover sheath with a stud to keep it from sluding through the belt. You simply slide the knife behind the belt or for concealed you slide it in the waistband at about the 4 o clock postion vertically. This is one of my bowies for reference. 10.5" blade. This is one Ill be carrying often from now on.

That position is a joke. Unless you have 1 or 2 items there is no way they verify your cart vs the receipt. Most times they put the highlighted mark without even looking, Sounds like someone thought they had a real job of authority and took it a bit too far.

Ok guys, this has been a long time in coming but it is here now! This is a full day of empty hand skills. No crouching tiger hidden dragon silliness, just good solid old school combatives combined with some modern influence and geared toward the street not the octagon. The class is priced accordingly and there is a hefty discount for anyone who is signed up for the Zero To Five class Oct 25-26.....http://www.suarezinternationalstore....x#.VCLOI_ldUas Students don't have to be a cross fit instructor, you just have to be in good enough condition to do one of our regular pistol classes.  TITLE- "Stayin' Alive" - Empty Hand Combatives in a Weapons Based Environment DATE- October 19  TIME- 10AM- 4PM CENTRAL TIME!!! LOCATION- Phillips Edwards Farm 763 County Rd 332 Pisgah Alabama 35765 (the usual place) PRICE- $100 (ONLY $50 if you are signed up for the Zero to Five October 25-26 ) Just bring check or cash to the Training Group.  AMMO - 50 rounds...this class is all empty hand techniques and transitioning to weapons but there is a little live fire to tie it all together.  EQUIPMENT NEEDED- Pistol , holster, Blue gun or Airsoft pistol (I do have loaners if your holster will work with a full size glock), Paintball mask or at a MINIMUM shooting glasses - getting poked in the eye sucks... OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT- mouthpiece and cup. Seriously, no one likes getting hit in the junk. A cup is a good investment . Training knife if you want to bring one. Focus pads-if you have 'em bring 'em. ANY kind of personal padding you want to bring.  This is NOT an MMA class. This is NOT a traditional martial arts class. This is a combatives class based on dealing with criminal assault initially with empty hands and bridging to weapons if needed. This is an awesome primer for our Zero To Five class.  The reason we are offering this is that when polled on what they want to work on the training group students say they'd like to do a combatives class. It makes sense. You cannot carry a gun everywhere...but you carry hands, feet, elbows and knees every where you go. Also you cannot just shoot everyone who hits you. And sometimes gunfights and knife fights start as fistfights and usually start before you get a weapon in hand. If all you have in the tool box is to stand and shoot ..well...good luck with that.  Hope to see you there!!!!!!!

It took a while but here is my TGO 20" AR build that I have been working on. Just completed it. My son did all of the assembly. We haven't even shot it yet. We'll take it out Sat and try it out.

Thanks, just placed an order for some 124 grain 9mm. Would have gotten some 45, but it's all gone.   If it is as good as I've read here, I'll be trying to get some more.

Didn't get home from work til 9:15. Worn out. And my wife's having a lot of contractions so I reckon Im gonna sit it out in the morning. Good luck I hope everyone sticks a biggun'. I'll be in a tree tomorrow afternoon though if the contractions subside (or if we have a baby before noon, lol)

Nice rack! :) I can't sleep... Too excited about opening morning!

Yes, he was defficient but he could've just froze and sat on his ass.

:lol: I have a buddy that's been after my welding bench with two vises on it for months now. Sold the welder today, so the table may not be long after. Going to keep the vises though. :)

Red, is that why you shot your pool full of holes, so he'd quit taking his evening drink so close to the house?

Panera's has food? All I got there was stale bread and canned soup. I haven't been back.

You are the knife god, Willis :)

Personally I'm glad the shooter lived. Dead men tell few tales and I think some answers are in order. I know that with the current media offerings it seems we have more than enough answers; converted to Islam, trying to convert others, beheaded, etc. but call me crazy, I trust any media to accurately report about as far as I can crap anymore. We don't know squat yet and won't for a few days or even weeks. There will be plenty of time to arrange a meeting with allah for the scum, after he's answered a few questions.

  Is that based on your own independent ballistic tests, or just because, nuh uh? ;)   The FBI aren't the first to conclude this, by the way. At least that the 9mm is at least extremely close in performance. 

Panera is good but way over-priced.  Two adult meals and two kid meals was about $45... for lunch!  I'll make a sammich at the house next time, thanks.

If it's rubbing specific spots in your pants, you could put one (or more) of those iron-on patches on the inside of the pants as a wear pad. 

Panera somehow has most people fooled into thinking that it's healthier than fast food.  Well, it is fast food just like the rest.  Lots of it is processed at various plants, frozen, and then microwaved in the kitchen.    #dangol'

I've always been afraid of those trail cams. If I ever got a shot of ole' sasquatch I may never do another evening hunt again. :pleased:

MSN story makes no mention of the Islamic angle. Gee, I wonder why? :dunno:

I think he meant abridged

I just bought an old Wilton 5" bench vice on ebay for $80 with free shipping. Much higher quality than most anything available new today.

They also sell those things. :)

That made me think of the endless hours sitting with my dad on an aluminum Jon boat. Humming trolling motor and a frozen bottom because I left my cushion in the truck. Fun times for sure.

Where did this “document” come from? It doesn’t read like an FBI document, has misspellings and is full of It reads like it was written by someone that desperately wants people to believe his 9mm is as good a weapon as their .40S&W’s. Sorry, dude you still have a 9mm; but maybe you can find someone to give you a hug. You guys know don’t you that you don’t need the approval of everyone else; the only people that matter are you and those you are protecting.

  What's worse?  Stopping when the alarm goes off so you can be treated like a thief.  That's worse to me.   If you paid for everything in your cart, ignore the damn alarm.  Continue to your car and leave.  Seriously!   When the little old lady at Walmart asks to see my receipt, at most I'll wave it at her if it's in my hand.  If I get sass, I offer to call 911 and wait there for the police to come and investigate the suspected shoplifting.  I haven't gotten any takers yet.   You don't have to put up with this crap!

  Oh don't worry. If there is one thing gun companies love doing, it's stretching out chamberings from year to year so they don't have to come up with anything truely new.

may want to check your costco/sam's agreement. you probably signed a contract that states that they will check your receipt when you leave the store. not allowing them to do so is a breach of that contract. not excusing any assault that may have taken place, as that's just stupid, but refusing to hold up your end of a contract is wrong.

So what does an enterprising mountain man do when they need a camp axe on a budget? Well, for me I fire up the forge and make one. Wrapped and welded 5160, 3/8" thick. Made from an old leaf spring, the handle is an old busted mattock handle I had laying around, and the wedge I just forged out from scrap. Handle is about 28". Should make a nice addition to the hiking pack [URL=http://s535.photobucket.com/user/tnplowboy07/media/axe_zpsc506f219.jpg.html][/URL]

Appreciate you Willis! Everyone else that hasn't signed up yet, come on!

Whatever kind you like, camo is for the hunter not the deer.

^^ and down wind.  With that said,... for deer, any certain variation of camo is mostly for us - especially in  gun season when we wear blaze orange.     We have a lot of browns in West TN during deer (gun) season, and I wear RealTree AP.  -- just couldn't see the benefit of paying more or shopping longer.   Cabelas has "Zonz" with a mix of in focus and out of focus elements. ... interesting idea.  Enough money and "research" has gone into the major brands that any of them which closely match the colors in your woods will work fine.  Choose one and learn how to move without moving.  I went temporarily nuts a few years ago and purchased Desert and original MARPAT jacket and BDUs.   They would work fine for turkey or deer,... but are incredibly dorky around the other humans.

That's an awesome set of pictures. When I retired from the Navy, myself and a friend rode our motorcycles back here to TN from San Diego. My ridding partner is a retired Marine. He retired from The Corps in 73, so you will understand his road name Gramps. Well is a Vietnam combat Vet. One of the first things I had to do when we got here was mow the yard. Gramps sat on the porch drinking his coffee while I mowed. I have a rice hat from Vietnam, so while I was mowing the side yard out of sight, I grabbed an SKS and slung it across my back and wore the rice hat as I road out to mow the front yard. You had never seen an old man laugh so hard. His comment after laughing was "In my two tours I never saw such a fat VC". LOL I wish photos had been taken.  

This. To me anything bigger than a LCP is not a pocket gun.
