I recently went on an extended RV Trip and pocket carried my Ruger Max 9 in a pocket holster. That pistol is a dream to pocket carry. If I didn't like revolvers so well the Max 9 would be my EDC permanently. By the way I have Winchester Ranger 147 Gr + P HP ammo in it. This ammo whacks the steel, on my back yard range, with gusto. Going to be shooting some water jugs with a lot of newer S D handgun ammo soon. Testing for penetration and expansion. Should come in handy if I am ever attacked by a water jug, don't you think?

Beautiful early 80's S&W 629 No Dash. 44 mag. $1300 OBO. Sold PPU

I’d prefer they knock $500 off the bid.

But boss hogg was funny

I have a unique work schedule, but..... If you're Wife usually does the cooking, have supper ready for her. Get the house clean. Get flowers. Take her lunch to work. Take a day off work to do something she needs to do. Tell her how important she is to you. Do a bunch of stuff with the kids.......all day.......away from her. I insist my Wife go to dinner with her friends at least once a month. I have insisted she get a massage from a lady that's local. I listen to her. I watch the kids when she wants to go to Bell buckle. I make a fool of myself just so the whole family gets a laugh. I take her single mother on vacation with us without my Wife asking. I take care of business when she's doing things the law says she can't tell me about. I tell her when the day was a bad day so she knows not to ask what happened or what I had to do that day. I listen to her when she finally gets to tell me what she's been dealing with. I scratch her back. I try and fail to be a good father, but I continue to try. I go to concerts with our oldest. I had a female boss tell me that she was surprised I let my Wife go to church because I wasn't religious. I told her I didn't have the right to tell my Wife what she could or couldn't believe or do. I don't own my Wife. That boss looked at me like i was a alien. I was treated differently at work after that. My Wife has never once told me what I have to do, believe, or act a certain way. From then on, my boss would bounce ideas off me because I " have a way of seeing things differently than everyone else sees them ". Work at finding things that make her happy and get it done. After a while, she'll do the same. It will become a competition and you'll both win. After a while it becomes normal. Next thing you know,.......25 years have passed and your best friend will be sitting beside you. I hope that one day I'll be worthy of my Wife. She agrees with me. LOL

I got the UMP Lower fit to the USC Upper, I took a Round File and used the old USC Lower as a guide and marked it with some tape. Lightly filed the Hooks on the UMP Lower till I got it fit up to the USC upper, turned out pretty good, next will be enlarging the Mag portion of the USC Upper to be able to use the UMP Double Stack Mag and lay out the Vents and figure out how to cut them and all that is left is to put it all back together and check functions before coloring the Grey USC Upper to Black to match everything else. So far it's been a good project, can't wait to get it done. I'm going to leave the 16"USC Bbl. for now still deciding if I want to go the form 1 route. Stay tuned for the finished project. Thanks for looking.

I bought this H&K USC 45acp last week. Got to reading and searching for some upgrades that I could do. I purchased a new Complete UMP Lower, Stock Block to add a Folding stock to it, XS Tritium Front Sight, and a few other things.

Got a few puppies left in our litter that are currently 6 weeks old. Had a 7:1 split of males and females. Puppies will have 4 rounds of wormer and 1st rounds of shots. Located in Lyles, TN . I've been letting the wife do the negotiating but she's been asking $1000 .... Im knocking them down to $500 to ensure they go to good homes.

Wish I knew he was in town https://youtu.be/pAlbzLp8CPg?si=UVxs-HpvwvBYymQQ

Well, this week we received a notice to vacate our townhouse because the owner is taking back the property to fully renovate. While this was a surprise we rolled with it, an owner does need to maintain their property, so we searched for another place to dwell. That place is a home on 30 acres in Blue Ridge Georgia with a catch and release pond, firearm/bow shooting range. Thankfully far from the city life I love Tennessee however when God opens up a new season you go with it. I want to give a hearty thank all TGO members! Several I've met in person and imho are men of high character! I'll continue to follow even though my purchases will be restricted, now being out of state, to non-firearm listings. You guys are awesome! God bless!

Will Levis is looking solid again tonight.

great gun... I have one in .357 SIG sweet shooter...GLWS

You don't have to be a TN resident to keep up your TGO membership.

Moved on to the Stock Block, had to do a little fitting to get it to slide into the UMP Lower. It fits nice and snug, all that's left is to install the stock and a few more little parts and cut the side vents put everything back together and function test it then color the upper black and this project should be done.

I then put the bolt in without the spring, attached the Lowe with the mag and a round in it and tilted the upper and lower downward and gave it a "jolt" by hand and it stripped the round off the mag and the bolt captured it perfectly.

Got a few more parts in. Got the Mag Well inlarged to accept the UMP Double Stack 25rnd mags, it just needs cleaned up a little.

Man if you were in Nashville I’d buy this in a heartbeat

Two things: 1.) You aren't a Vendor so you aren't allowed to make posts like this here. 2.) Unless you are an 07 FFL with an 02 SOT, you're engaging in the illegal manufacture of firearms for sale and shouldn't make posts like this anyway.

I've been doing professional Cerakote for 12 years in my San Diego shop. I agree with all the above - a good finish but it will eventually wear in the high spots. One extra caution is that many Cerakote applicators don't know how to handle polymer, and they will either under-bake it (low quality finish) or over-bake it (kills the color, or worse, destabilizes the polymer and ruins the frame).

Get out of the shower, put on your socks and shoes, nothing else, and parade around the house. I guarantee she’ll laugh! if she doesn’t, ask her if your shoes match your outfit. If she doesn’t laugh the , pack your bags I reckon. Do not do this if you have company!!!

Smyrna police department hasn't had a very good batting average lately.

I got an expedited approval and picked up my can on 10/18 at the OT M'boro location (even though I used the Hermitage location for the initial purchase). The transfer was facilitated by Tylar from Firearms Pharmacy in Lebanon, TN. He was helpful and friendly. He said they were able to get about 200 of the 400 cans that were in jail to their owners within just a few days once they got started. I live in Mount Juliet and have not yet been to Firearms Pharmacy as a customer, but I will definitely consider them going forward. They also have a Silencershop kiosk and an indoor range.

My Wife is better at it than I am. One of the times my Wife was getting $0.25 gas, she had a lady in her 80s pull up next to her. My Wife asked her if she minded if she filled up her tank for her. It costs us almost nothing, but we were happy for days talking about how that affected the lady. A random stranger just made her day and gave her a great story to tell.

Or getting more than you paid for…

Gone

Congratulations to whomever got it, I wish I saw it sooner and had a day off to pick it up! Beautiful set!

JMHO: if you engage in prostitution knowing you have HIV, you should be charged with attempted murder.

"This is one of the National Match pistols that Colt made in the mid 1960's, produced before the Gold Cup markings were added. It has a solid barrel bushing rather than a collet one which was added to later models." From a Lock Stock and Barrel listing of one of their auctions. According to "Colt's Dates of Manufacture" by R.L. Wilson, this pistol was manufactured by Colt in 1967. The gun listed here is no longer completely original. It has the factory slide and frame with the -NM suffix serial number, trigger, internal parts and barrel bushing and comes with the pictured small parts that have been replaced, including the original rear sight. The frame was modified for the beavertail grip safely. An aftermarket barrel has replaced the original. As best I recall; The magazine funnel, mainspring housing, beavertail grip safety and ambidextrous thumb safety are all Wilson parts. The rear sight is Champion, with a serrated blade, front is a Novak fiber optic model, installed by Novak after they dovetailed the slot into the slide. I do not recall who made the G10 grip panels that are on the gun. The hammer was bobbed slightly to clear the beavertail grip safety. Stippling on the front of the grip frame can be removed (peeled off). It is not cut into the metal. I just have it on there for occasional IDPA match use. Magazine release is original, as is the bluing on the entire piece, except for where the gunsmiths touched up the finish where modifications were made. The barrel that was in the gun when I purchased it in 1990 is included. Slide to frame fit remains very tight as it was used regularly in PPC and later in IDPA competition, both with only very light competition loads. It regularly shot Grand Master scores in PPC and Expert in IDPA. The only time it was shot with "major power" loads, while I have owned it, was when I used it in the USPSA Single Stack Nationals in 2010. Funny story ... I was living on the east side of Michigan and was at a gunshow on the west side of Michigan, on a Sunday ... I had wanted one of these National Match Colts since the early 70's when my best friend bought one and took it out often when we went shooting every week ... a guy had this one on his table, priced at $1,000 and said it was on consignment and he couldn't take a penny less. I turned my pockets inside out and showed him that every cent I had with me was $915. He went and called the owner, who said he would take it. And I had to go find an ATM that would accept my bank's ATM card to be able to buy gas to get home. But I've always loved the gun. Later, after shooting PPC for most of a year with a revolver, like everyone seemed to think we were "supposed to", I was getting frustrated with shooting "almost" scores, even with a beautifully custom built Smith and Wesson L frame from the father and son Longs at Pineville Gun Shop, I asked the match director if I could shoot the next match with a 1911 and he said "sure". So the next match I finally shot 97 1/2% of a perfect score and made Grand Master by shooting powder puff loads in this pistol. I'm too old to shoot the pistols much anymore. So I'm selling them off so my wife doesn't have to deal with them like my best friend's wife did. What you see in the pictures is included, all of this and nothing else, except of course that no ammunition is included. It still shoots as accurately and functions as reliably as always. Bring your Tennessee drivers license with your photo and birth date on it. Not interested in trades or lowball offers.

Spoke to the FTB branch today. When building an AR-15 as a "pistol" first it is legal to reconfigure it as a "rifle". It is also legal to take that same "rifle" and return it to its "pistol" configuration from the "rifle" configuration. But during the swapping of parts no combination of parts can assmebled to create a NFA item. But, as always, if an AR-15 is a rifle first it will always be a rifle. You cannot buy an AR-15 as a rifle then turn it into a pistol. And just a reminder if it is a lower that is sold with a shoulder stock attached it is a rifle even if no upper is attached. Dolomite

Gotta watch out for those water jugs...... they're killers.

Dang! Had I known you would take a liver.......
