shotgun and 00 buck is hard to beat...pretty definitive

100 yard, outdoor range. Picture should be rotated 90 degrees clockwise to show true orientation

The version I heard from another morning news channel alluded to them knowing each other which could change the look of the situation .

That's outstanding Greg! Congrats on a great garden. I agree @ReeferMac, but that's the good part about being able to can or freeze whatever we have an abundance of in a given year. We were hit with squash borer and powdery mildew this year, but still managed to put up about 20 quarts of green beans, 30 quarts pickles and a ton of zucchini. Eating fresh tomatoes every day...awesome! We're trying a late crop of crook neck squash and our butternut squash is coming up well. Okra is just beginning to set pods and a 3rd planting of green beans is coming up well. The best part is eating something from the garden every day. We still have tomatoes and sauce in the freezer from last year. We're trying to grow rutabaga for the first time and have turnips coming up. Time will tell.

I like corn that comes from a mason jar, but 23 quarts would last me a couple years!

Could be legit. But, yeah first post and wanting one shipped I would certainly be wary, but I have for sure had my fill of trying to ship this gun. At $575 it will eventually sell locally. If not I have a 19 year old daughter, she's got fairly large mitts for a girl I'll save it for her.

21 quarts of corn today plus a few dozen ears put up on the cob. We’re now out f the corn business for the year.

This is definitely a case of “not enough information.”

Hopefully he used the hot/crazy matrix:

If its for the wife, take her to the gun store and let HER pick what she likes.

If you are in the surrounding Knoxville area, I will be holding the Enhanced Handgun Carry class at Pellissippi State, Hardin Valley, Saturday, Nov 13. Starts 8 AM. Call 865-539-7167 for details. This is the permit that gives you the best protection and broadest carry privileges in TN plus the most state reciprocity.

Just watched a news conference on the Church shooting, on Jan 3, in Texas. The pastor was killed and another wounded. The Sherriff said there were 2 members in attendance, carrying, and the suspect disarmed the pastor and shot him with his own gun. When asked by a reporter what he what advice he would give others, concerning church safety and security the Sherriff stated he didn't want to second guess anyone in this church shooting, but he said, "If your going to pack a gun you had better be ready to use it." Good advice, IMO. I will add, do it with as much determination as one can bring himself too. You are in a fight for your life when you present your weapon guys.

I like those colors. Bill at Master-Tac does great work. GLWS!

I have 400 rounds of 20ga ammo and no 20 ga shotgun. All is dove/skeet loads between 7.5 and 8. 100 rounds are heavy load (1oz) and 300 are standard loads (7/8oz) looking to trade for 12 ga or 9mm ammo.

Deal pending.

Tax free!

I wont even try to guess, at least till more info is made available.

Meanwhile our glorious Government is handling this "great". That said with a lot of sarcasm. Open border with all types of China Virus coming in but, apparently that's not a concern. Falsey first said no mask required, then wear a mask, then wear 2 masks. How much are they paying that fool?

NICE!

Nah, it's kind, but seriously we've got it covered. I am just parting with it because I honestly don't like it. I much prefer my G20. I know it sounds nuts, but it just feels better in my hand and I am way more accurate with it. Could all be just in my head, but 10mm is where it's at for me. The only .45 we have that I like is Monkey's old Springfield Armory 1911. He has a Les Baer, but it's a 4 1/4" and I prefer 5". We're all just weird with our own preferences.

I have been searching for this gun. First one I have found. All funds would be in cash to you before you ship to my FFL. It is all above board and I would pay your shipping. Cash wired to your Walmart. Easy way to get it to you fast. I would have not joined other than to contact you. Gary

Model 10 was adopted by Bigun! Great to meet you sir!

In general fist fights that turn into shootings are not a good thing. Unless there are extenuating circumstances, deadly force isn't acceptable. Additionally, even with stand your ground law in TN, avoidance can be deemed the more reasonable thing to do and put the shooter in an unfavorable position for self defense. Will be an interesting story to follow.

Glock 30 would be my choice. Why you ask? Because a carbine doesn’t fit on the night stand. You do have the option of carrying a handgun around with you if need be. Enjoy

Something smells........

They started that guitar spinning shtick with “Legs” in ‘83. A shame it was. With as much talent as they had the gimmicks are remembered the most.

I'm sure there's things that have been left out of the article. Important points.

It could be that the victim was found outside the home. If that is the case, then it might be harder to justify the shooting. Maybe witnesses indicated that the homeowner escalated the situation. The report did not give enough info.

Not getting into the good or bad of this as flawed as it is but... Wish there was a simple chart or something that would give more people the confidence to carry without fear of being arrested. We can assume: City, State, Fed Govt. Property you get max. punishment if caught. But. Private businesses with no guns signs posted = ?? What punishments expected. City limits, sidewalks, streets, public transport??? It's just too chancy for law abiding with assets to lose if busted. It's even wrong to lock weapon in your auto while in a State park or School zone it seems. The law makes for more awkward sightings and reports of exposed guns from people seeing carriers trying to obey the asinine law. Unholstering and securing in weird locations. Yes it's a huge step in the right direction but it needs fixing. First fix in my opinion. At a minimum personal cars should always be permitted anywhere, to make it easy to park in a prohibited place and secure the gun before entering.

EKMO is an external machine that exchanges oxygen and CO2 in your blood. Most often used during transplant surgeries or in cases of significant lung damage(this case) or heart weakness. it means his lungs are experience severe disease or damage that are not allowing them to effectively exchange Oxygen and CO2. He can develop hypercapnia which is basically CO2 poising and becomes fatal.

The 300BO

Used 18" 870 - $300 Coyote cerakote - $150 XS sights - $80 Not paying Wilson Combat the extra grand for their rollstamp...... Priceless!

You guys in middle Tennessee are missing out on a great rifle. I would have already bought it but a 4+ hour drive is just too much.

Just par for the course from the media! Tell lies and keep us misinformed and some happy, the rest in the dark.

Dumb question.... well, kinda not so much a question as it is a statement really. Pick a sight. Peep or scope. If you mount a scope, I promise you; in your lifetime you're never, ever going to take it off to shoot irons. If you're going to be sticking to hunting within iron sight ranges, put a freaking scope on it because honestly, it's far more accurate. If you wanna shoot a peep, more power to you. Go with God & ignore the scope entirely. I've been in some ri-DICulous situations & have yet to need to remove a scope. Buy good, reliable glass & it'll last you a lifetime. Or run irons & accept that you're probably not going to 12-ring that 200yd critter.

Odd (or interesting) that they chose the weapon most recognized as associated with organized crime…..

Am I the only one that feels like some are making the permitless carry law out to be worse than it is? I know it's not perfect but it still seems like a huge step in the right direction. I am hopeful they clean it up in the future.

995 fan here. Thousands of rounds, accurate and reliable. Solid 9mm PCC. Have 2 - 20 round Red Ball mags, few hundred rounds, no issues. Easy to reload with 10 round mags, which are still currently legal in most US states. Down side is it is heavy. I added a HTA bullpup stock to mine and it's 9#+ For $200+ more, there are better options if weight and common mag availability is a concern. According to the internet, 16" barrel gets you about +200fps. It's still a pistol bullet. If you're concerned about range folk talk about exploding, self discharging HPs, eff 'em. SIght it in, keep in moderately clean and lubricated, then ring steel at 25 to 50 yards 10/10 times with no malfunctions.
