I've never heard of 95% of those people. Besides, my favorite actors are all dead.

I think the idea here is that Hickok45 himself does not spread his name. You list two sites which divulge his identity. Great. But those aren't Hickok's site. HE isn't going around telling everyone who he really is where he lives, and when is the best time to stop by for a chat. Can you probably look around and find the info? Absolutely. Is Hickok the one providing it? No.

Darn you Willis68, you've made my knife tastes go up in dollar amount. Anyway a Brous Blades VR-71 found it's way home with me tonight. It's not a spring assist but you would never be able to tell with how smooth the blades opens. You just have to apply a little bit of pressure to the flipper and it's open, just incredibly smooth.

If oil itself does not take it off then gently scrub with 0000 steel wool and oil.

I disagree that Runco did something that he shouldn't have.  Hickock's everpedia page has personal details about him leading me to believe that he did the page himself or provided the details to someone else.   Hickock is a public figure.  I suspect the privacy issue isn't as big a deal to him as is perceived in some of these other posts.

I met up with KahrMan at Royal Range today. We had a good time talking and snooping. Neither of us tried the range this time, but we did partake of the observation hallway. It's a nice setup. The store was slammed with customers. A couple employees told me they weren't expecting such a crowd today, but the range was attracting lots of shooters. That's a good problem to have. One set of employees worked feverishly to clear the line while another set showed guns and gear from behind the counter. I bought a little ammo. The fellow who checked me out was handing out paperwork for those wanting to try the range while ringing me up. They were working as efficient as possible considering the gob of people in the store. With a little patience, we all got where we were going.

  Some people can't breath if they're not complaining about something.

You sure that's tomato....?

And that is exactly what the Democrats count on.  Democrats vote Democrat no matter what, it's us on the right that divide our votes because the Republican doesn't meet all our preconceived ideas of what a Republican should be.  Don't get me wrong, I am not a Donald supporter, and I will not be voting for him in the Primary.  But when it comes to the choice of Hillary or whomever the Republicans put up...I will go Republican. I will not let others decide who represent us in the White House, I don't care if the Republican doesn't have a snowballs chance in hell in TN, I will still give my vote to them.

I've merged 3 or 4 of these threads in to one here. Continue on. :up:

I would love to take out an ad in the KNS that says, "Hey Chief Rausch, what part of "but the Legislature shall have power, by law, to regulate the wearing of arms with a view to prevent crime." don't you understand? It doesn't mention being able to restrict just because there are cops there.

Nuke the invoice. I just chose lifetime from the store and paid for it tonight. Thanks for a great forum.

Lifetime complete.

i hate that "being famous" somehow gives you a superior opinion. I am sure they have more influence over the "heard" but notability and intelligence don't  always go together. If in doubt, take a look at Johnny Manziel :wall:   Thankfully, my vote will count the same as all those listed next year.

What about the comments about it being a dangerous weapon and how many of them are on the street? That seemed out of place to me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Last year during hunting season I froze, I had an original Mr Heater Heater which worked OK but it sounds like a little jet engine and uses too much gas. You also pretty much have to be right next to it to get any heat. So before hunting season I decided I needed an upgrade, I looked at the upgraded single burner Little Buddy and the Portable Buddy and decided on the bigger one due to btu ranges. Well, this whole season I really didn't need it as temps were pretty much bearable...until today. With temp at 34 degrees at noon I decided to test it out. First thing I noticed was how quiet it is, even with my hearing amplified headset its barely noticeable. The unit gives off some decent heat: the blind is 8x8x7 with non insulated 3/4" OSB walls or roof though on the floor I have those mats that lock together and the roof has tar paper and roofing tiles. The windows are single pane 1/8" plexiglass, closed of course. Been running on low for one hour, outdoor temp says 36, indoor reads 57 deg. The only thing that gives me pause, and that's with both, is the propane smell, not sure how that will effect the deer, I don't think it will be an issue since I got deer last year with the other one running but that may of been a fluke or the wind was in my favor. I'll update this as I find any other things that come up such as how long this cylinder lasts. This might be my last day hunting so it may be next season for any more pros and cons. Edit: 1640, outside temp 37 inside 58 degrees. Cylinder is frosted to about halfway up, but no sign of running out yet. Says it will get 6 hours on low, might be about right.

Call me weird I guess, it's not like I'm going to have enough to can in March. Always had a winter plant, it's the first to produce in late spring. [URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/JMH42/media/DSCN3266_zpsc0djl1qa.jpg.html][/URL]

  Garufa,  the goober with the keyboard you are referring to is Hickock45 himself. Several posts have said that he doesn't publish his name, which is not correct.   Check out his everpedia page and tell me he isn't using that as a marketing vehicle.  Even if it weren't, everpedia is clear that they will remove anyone's name who ask for that.   Public figures, which he is by his choice and compensation, are not anonymous.

  When he posts his name on his YouTube, Facebook, or whatever silly social media page, then have at it.  If he doesn't want some semblance of privacy then so be it....but it's his decision to make, not every goober with a keyboard.

  Or perhaps it has something to do with the "executive order". I was meeting one of my employees at Nashville Armory today. 3 hour wait for a lane! I figured Royal would look the same (being new and all), and he didn't want to waste more time driving around to other ranges. So we parted and I went back to M'boro, stopped by at OnTarget, and that place was packed too!   Looks like we need more shooting ranges. I mean, I'm happy that gun ownership is increasing. But I also would like to go shoot without waiting half a day.   Thanks Obama.  :(

    Thanks, y'all, that did indeed work, but here's what I did instead.   Got both the Wolf Gold and a K of 7.62x39 also. My Buyer's Club thang had lapsed some time back, so took the "30 day free" Buyer Club option, which gave me the lower BC price plus free shipping. PLUS, used my SG Visa card which knocked off another 2.5% on whole order.   The temp BC will revert to paid one after 30 days, so I'll get charged the 30 clams then, but probably will buy enough stuff over the next year to make it worthwhile especially with the 20 clams they throw in to use with no minimum order.   Thanks for the heads up y'all.   - OS

  No, the new rules require that you donate the gun in the classifieds of TGO as a freebie. Give me a 5 minute heads up before you post it!

  This ^^^^^   Like DaveTN said, should this scenario goes down, it'll be fast, maybe too fast to react to. Chances of people being caught in different parts of the house are likely. Then everyone's cut off from the rest. If I get rushed, taken to the floor and held at gunpoint or shot, I would rather have my family trained so they can protect themselves, not just call 911. Especially if they're young adults and teens. Besides firearms, the training should include trauma care. Everyone needs to know how to use "their" weapon and everyone's IFAK or other first aid.     Lastly....       I have an alarm system, but they are only good "after" the bg's are inside. The mutt let's me know when anyone first gets on the property. Gives some valuable time to get a hold of those "protection devices" you mentioned.

Maybe OhShoot will belong, he probably can help.  He is usually very good at this.  Others too.  I would keep digging myself, but I have get outside for my Saturday Chores. 

I would just get a gas block with at top rail, or a gas block with a sight integrated into it.  If you mount something to the upper to function as your front sight, the sight radius will be far too short.

So, I don't know if any of you have ever heard of ARC or not. It stands for Animal Rescue Corps. But if you haven't you should look them up. In the last 3 days they have had 5 rescue cases of over 100 dogs and other animals here in Tennessee alone. Some were abandonment cases, 1 was a hoarding and one was someone who had good intentions but became overwhelmed. The last case the person was actually still caring for the animals but still surrendered them. It's shocking to me. I can't believe how many times I see Tennessee listed in their posts when they go out on rescues. Their emergency shelter is in Lebanon right now. They're in need of volunteers, supplies to care for the animals and donations. WKRN has all the info if you're interested.

Taya was good, all the public speaking since her husbands murder has refined her talking style, and helps her come across very nicely.  Firm, yet not in your face about it.   But this woman stole the show in my opinion.  She pretty much left the President with no room to do anything except move on, as he had no real answer.  She had to endure the fear of every woman in America, and now has a family of her own to protect.  Her story is exactly the reason, and her telling it makes a powerful case explaining why people need guns. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/01/08/meet-kimberly-corban-the-pro-gun-rape-survivor-who-challenged-obama-on-cnn/

The first thing is not making yourself a target - I am not talking about laying C Wire and Claymores around your house and going Walking Dead either. Be careful whom you talk to about what you do, dont let unkown people know your schedules, keep up your situational awareness - dont recognize a car, see a person snooping? Watch for it. It doesnt necessarily always warrant a 911 call but that is up to your discretion. Other things are a home security program - or even the sign. Illumination, motion detectors - obviously locking and latching what needs to be locked and latched. Assembly areas are good but you never know where the BG(s) are going to approach from - a good strongpoint would be somewhere defensible, easily accessible and provides good COVER - not concealment. A garage, storm room, attic, or if you can - get into a car or run to a retaining wall or fenceline. Range time! Practice makes perfect isnt just what your 6th grade coach said when you missed your free throws. Everyone capable of using a firearm should know how to employ it, clear malfunctions and shoot. You dont need some high speed training courses - getting used to your weapon systems, applying the fundamentals of trigger discipline, sight picture, point of aim, recoil management go a long way. You can be a CAG dude, SF, a ninja or some IDPA paragon but the second you start taking fire or get charged by an enemy - that high speed barrel roll Wanted spin shot you learned wont save the day - the fundamentals will. I have an assload of pistols and my daughter is only a month old, so stashing one in every room is okay for me to do. Hell some people go as far as carrying in their home. If some turds enter your home, most likely theyll either shoot you or charge you and try to gain the advantage - so a pistol is your best bet, sucks wrestling with a musket or shotgun which can be grabbed by some asshat hopped up on drugs. Drill a retreat plan, do it from different angles, do it on suprise - build that muscle memory, my wife and I do it every once in awhile to stay sharp. A go bag is helpful but if youre in the dining room you cant exactly run to your closet and call a timeout, with the tech age - hopefully someone has a phone so you can call the cops or your neighborhood pipe hitters. End of the day we plan and hope it never happens. Godspeed. ETA: some basic first aid or casualty care training wont hurt either.

  If you think 300 rounds is a large number in a single visit, then you haven't been to the range with a lot of TGOers.  :)   You'll be fine. If you were shooting north of a 1,000 between cleanings, then it might make a difference.

What a piece of crap that man is. Unfortunately he was not only elected but re-elected. It's why I have little hope for our Republic.

Remington UMC is the dirtiest I've used. Sellier is some of the cleanest. That said, it doesn't matter to me. 1 round of clean stuff or 1,000 rounds of dirty stuff....the gun still gets cleaned.

  That is one fine pistol... fish gills and all! And in 9mm... I mostly see them in .40 cal. Nice find!

I'd give a pretty penny to see this piece of crap swinging from a  brand new rope.

It was all perfectly clear until I got to this part.

This article makes no sense to me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I wont touch one! Same for the P30!      My sister got me an airsoft P30 for a gag gift Christmas 2014......if the real guns feel half as good in my hand and that toy I'd have to dump everything I've got and go alll total to HK LOL

Yep, 2. STI 2011 Eagle, Gen4 G35. I also have 10's for the haters. I like .40 as a reloader. Less fuss than 9mm, more bullet weight variation if needed. Favorite load(and my competition load) is 200grn WFN bullets at 850fps. Makes the .40 a pussycat but makes major power. This needs pics...

Ok, I hope this story makes sense: I used to be a self-employed service and repair plumber. No employees, just a one man shop, no advertising, just growing by word of mouth. At least twice, I went to newly referred customers houses to fix something and they told me "we had a plumber out six months ago to fix this, but they didn't fix it right, and quit working after they left". Both times, I asked them if they called the plumber to complain, both said no. This scared me to death. I was a pretty good plumber, but not perfect. I would want to know if something I thought I fixed wasn't fixed. If I had employees, I would want to know they were not getting the job done.

Since this thing took a fork in the road I'm here to tell you all you got it all wrong. Here's a 1969 model, ain't she beautiful? Rizzo

You guys are slipping. Late into Page 3 and we don't have a single picture of a black panther? Fine... I'll do it.
