Democrats are gun salesmen. There's a Republican in office right now.

AMEN! I really wish some dogs could drop the poor excuses for humans off at the shelter. I’ve always wished I was wealthy enough to be able to rescue all these dogs.

We call them Redeye Bass, but their real name is Roanoke Bass (Ambloplites Cavifrons). They are only found on three river basins in the world, Roanoke River, Tar River and the Neuse River. They can only be found on the upper reaches of these rivers because they need swift current and gravel beds to spawn. The world record is 2 lbs 10oz. The one in the picture is a young bull, they turn dark during spawning season.

Just attended a social function, as couple from our church just celebrated a 60th wedding anniversary and their kids were having a get together for them at our local events center. I had to dress for the occasion and put on a pair of light tan colored Kakis and Polo shirt. My pocket in those trousers is a little small for my usual K frame size 7 shot revolver and it prints really bad, so I put the Taurus in the safe and retrieved my Ruger Max 9. I had the extended 12 round mag in it, so I took it out and inserted the 10-rounder. The Max 9 fits that pocket much better but does still print however not near as bad as the revolver. It had 11 rounds of 9 MM on board instead of the 13 I usually carry. I really have come to like the Max 9. It is just right for big or smaller medium size pocket carry. IMO, only those who really know where they are in our solar system would even notice the bulge in my pocket. The Max is very easy to draw, fire, and get good hits with. I really like the green pipe sight and how the steel pistol feels in the hand. Even with the 10-round mag I can still get a good 2 1/2 finger hold (medium size hands) on the grip which is enough to hold to and makes shots more accurately. Even with continuous fire with 147 Gr + p S D H P ammo my half finger does not disengage the grip. If looking for a good, concealed carry pistol, for either IWB holsters or medium to large size Pocket carry, the Max deserves your eye for at least a checkout. The thing is built like a tank. I use a DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster to carry the pistol in. I only paid 369.00 plus Tax for the Ruger. It comes with both mags.

I do not believe any of us have enough money to cover this.

This has recently been one of my " new " favorite quotes from Psalms. I found this again thru the Mountain Mule Packers, a benevolent and very lovely service bringing supplies to folks in remote places ( Think E Tenn and N Carolina flooding plus the recent Texas flooding here ). It is their guiding verse : Psalms 46:1-2 NIV ...[1] God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. [2] Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, ... leroy....

Bought it brand new and carried it for a couple of years. Been to the range once. Never even broke it in. It has some tiny imperfections pictured for u just from where it was pocket carried in a soft holster. The laser stopped working a while back so it has sat in my safe for a couple of years or more. You may be tech savvy and can determine why. Comes with original box, paperwork, soft case, and 2 7rd extended mags. Price is much lower than a regular micro without laser grips. Must be legal to own and be a TN resident. $450. TEXT IS BEST! 615-504-1491

Prescription glasses for shooting can be challenging. I wear progressives as my daily pair, and they don’t help much for shooting. Where I end up looking through the lens when shooting is at the long distance focus which makes it impossible to focus well on the front sight. For shooting at the range, I ended up getting a pair of single vision safety glasses with a modified prescription for the right eye that lets me focus on the front sight. I ordered these through Zenni. They have very reasonable prices on basic Z87.1 frames and lenses. My need was for range glasses where I can manage without having the full progressives. I don’t hunt, but if I did, I would just need to do my best with the progressives since that would require being able to see close, mid, and far at any given time. https://www.zennioptical.com SportRX is another I have used in the past for cycling goggles. https://www.sportrx.com/ .

The recent events are tragic. I don't have much hope for SIG stepping up to do the right thing. May the Airman rest in peace.

I suspect the coffin on the SIG 320/ M17/18 is about to be nailed shut. They’ll be bringing back the Beretta M9s from war reserve status, probably very soon.

This sucks so bad. I've been following a guy that I think knows what's up with the 320. Im tempted to get a police trade it for $200 and see, but i don't know if i even want the thing in my home.

You are very welcome.I’m not an instructor or anything, I’m just a nerd with a hyper fixation on the legal issues and so manage to keep up-to-date out of nerdery.

You are absolutely correct and I appreciate the update. Since I am a state instructor (inactive at this time) I still like being up to date. I did verify this with the Handgun Permit office in Nashville as well. So one footnote, if one is in the new age range and traveling, be sure and call and verify reciprocity with any state one is traveling through as they may not accept the new parameters. The Handgun office tries to keep the reciprocity list up to date, but as you pointed out, this is a recent change.

Did you make an offer? It drives me nuts when people ask me what my best price is after I've listed what I think is a fair price. The reasonable thing, in my opinion, is to make an offer and negotiate, or not, from there. Just my opinion.

I did what I could, contacted both Senators and my Representative but obviously my opinion does not matter to them. As with most I am very disappointed that control of both chambers and the Presidency still does not give the Republicans enough nerve/strength/resolve etc. to represent the people that put them in office. The $200 was not my issue it is the government overreach. I suppose I will continue to hold my nose and vote for the lesser of two evils but it is so frustrating. Sorry for the rant.

I shot an IDPA match tonight at the TWRA range in Bartlett. My performance was a complete Comedy of Errors tonight, but due to a low turnout (none of the usual M’s), I got my first ever match win. This is despite: -5 PE’s -A snap cap left over from my class at Tactical Response last weekend still in the mag -Completely fumbled reload -My optic suddenly becoming a projectile mid stage

Bereli has 124 gr Fiocchi at 215 for 1000 (120 for 500) and 147gr speer lawman at 260 for 1000. (140 for 500). I bought a 1000 of each lol. Free shipping, just tax on top of those prices.

I’ve got a pretty cool 10/22 up for sale that was my youngest boys rifle. He is wrong handed so I picked him up the left handed version. This custom stock was cut down and refinished for a 10.75 inch length of pull (standard is 13.) It also has the desirable all metal trigger group. Runs very reliable and shoots well especially for a kids plinker. $250 in South Nashville or North Franklin.

I have a very nice JE date code (1984) West German Sig P-225 9mm for sale. Gun is all original in the factory box with manual and test target. Includes 3x factory Sig P-225 magazines.

They dropped TN years ago after TN started a two tier system. The new non-enhanced permit required less training and NM wasn’t happy about it.

Smith & Wesson M&P 9 Metal Spec Series V, 3 23+1 Rounds mags and everything from the factory. Will come with optic and light. $1,700 or $1,300 for just gun and everything from the factory. Will trade for a CZ shadow 2 with optic, or other CZ’s. Or Dan Wesson DWX.

It is true that unscrupulous, liberal media and lawyers will try to attack modified arms. Along with cutesey warning signs, hi cap magazines (whatever those are), hollow point ammo, etc. The conclusion to carry a purely factory stock sidearm is a good idea also if you can accomplish that. I have one. the only thing I could wish for is less weight. Picking a carry pistol is a long process and doing so on a budget is nearly impossible. The argument could be made against full and semi custom pistols such as Wilson or Les Baer also. But that is an antiquated thought process as we have learned over the last 40 years how to dispel the wrongful thinking of these attacks. Lighter, cleaner triggers improve accuracy and reduce the risk to innocent bystanders as an example. As do better sights. Hollow points are designed to reduce over penetration. Any modification to enhance durability, reliability, accuracy, and survivability should be considered mandatory. One can also justify aesthetic upgrades as making other people less apprehensive. After all, black guns are scary. No one is out there building Fitz Specials anymore. Remember, we are trying to survive, we all know there will be another fight in the courts. Unless you're in Sheriff Grady's county. I stand by the adage "better to be judged by twelve than carried by six". Evry gun owner should spend as much or more time studying firearms, especially our own, as shooting and maintaining them. Study not only how everything works but what the laws and judgements are. Learn the political climate of the area in which one resides. Learn, practice, maintain. And I do own a Taurus PT111 Millenium G2. Bought it because it was a great deal and filled the empty 9mm slot. The Taurus 111/G2/G3 lines have deficiencies that could show up and are remedied easily by replacing plastic parts with steel. Nothing wrong there. Mine isn't carried at this point for two reasons unrelated to reliability. 1 I haven't finished the holster for it. 2 I hate the trigger, the pull is too long and it bites my finger. So yes, it will get an aftermarket trigger.

Your information is out of date. The legal age for obtaining an HCP is flatly at 18 now. since 2023 Tennessee has been under a court ruling that declared the 21 age limit as unconstitutional, and it was codified into law this year. The only hang up that someone between the ages of 18–20 has an exercising their right to carry a pistol in self-defense is federal law that still sets the age for purchase through an FFL at 21. They must have obtained their pistol through private sale or gift as of right now.

The gun market is incredibly soft atm. Buyers market. Maybe too much production during covid, republican in office, less discretionary spending, maybe a mix.

These belonged to my dad who passed away a few years ago. He was not a big gun guy or collector. He was a Lutheran pastor I only found these at Mom's house the other day. I think she sometimes used them to pull weeds in the yard. I'm not sure of the originality or finish. Neither can I find any stamps or markings. Maybe $45 for each. Thank you for looking!

Usually targets but down for tyrants too.

Piney Flats area for me. Be happy for someone to come over and show me how to shoot.
