Let me start off with saying if you feel unable or unwilling to do the following care instructions then these aren't for you. Care Instructions 1. Keep your knife clean after each use. 2. You can wash your knife with soapy water. 3. Immediately dry off the knife. 4. Apply mineral oil or vegetable oil after use for long lasting results. 5. NEVER PUT YOUR KNIFE IN THE DISHWASHER!!! Made from 1/8" thick D-2 steel. Rockwell hardness is 58-60. They have camel bone and G10 handles. I'm not providing a block with these as one of the magnetic style blocks would be best. Your home and style and price range depends on what block you'd like. The magnetic blocks are all over Amazon, Ebay and o places. Price is $225 shipped for the set. I will only sell as a set.

Marlin 1895 Cowboy edition in 45-70. Production date I believe is 2002. "JM" stamped. 26 inch barrel with Marbles tang sight. Like new with box and paper work. $1400, no trades at this time.

Colt Defender for sale, great little gun. Four mags and holster, box and all that comes with it. Currently has the Kimber recoil assembly installed (easier disassembly). Bought this new a couple of years ago, carried it some but moving on. Would trade for Ruger Blackhawk in 45acp, 5.5" barrel prefered Price drop $800

My "New" Gewehr 88 in 8x57

Don’t get me wrong, a Taurus is adequate, but honestly, as I am reading it, I think your mindset on it is a bit messed up. You are naturally correct in focusing on carry gun before the (presumably more expensive) fun gun in a couple of months. But the carry gun is life saving equipment, and therefore not something to skimp on. Especially when significantly better arms to be had for minimal price differences. On this forum you can often see well cared for Glocks (for example) go $400 or less. Additionally (and this part often gets overlooked) all the other equipment like spare parts, magazines, and (especially) holsters are ubiquitous. I recommend people build these costs into the initial investment for the best return. Lastly, have you shot numerous models, to include the Taurus, for firsthand experience? Online opinions (mine included) mean Jack squat in the face of personal experience.

@FUJIMO Great news! Received the used Ebay Nikki Carb yesterday. Sprayed some carb cleaner in it, slapped it on, and the mower runs maybe better than I've ever seen it. I never quite realized it had an aftermarket carb when I got it, glad I got it swapped over. Sad thing is I spent $70.00 on the rebuild kit last week, the used carb that needed zero modifications was only $35.00. I'll pull that other one apart and keep all the parts from it.

Finally finished up my 300BO pistol build. I really love how it turned out.

I know many don't like to speak of this, but it is a fact for all of mankind. The Bible says, "Every Knee will Bow before Christ." That means Yours and Mine. Do it in this realm, one is ok by faith, in the next realm, too late. Just come home from our nephew's funeral in Montgomery Alabama. He was our first extended family death, "Before His Time" we have experienced. Mark was 64. His death was totally unexpected. He had heart problems from about 18. May have had problems before that, but he found out, in the military, for sure. It was so bad they discharged him out of basic training. He entered training for the "Blue Beret" wing of the Air Force. The training was very strenuous. That is where he found out he had Heart problems. His wife and family are devastated. As we sat in the church yesterday, and saw all the people she had to greet, it was hard. He had 3 boys, one of which was killed in a stupid road rage situation, not his fault. Their son was 31. He was a passenger in a car and was thrown out and killed last year. His mother lost him and now her husband of 35 years. I was sitting there thinking, one had better be ready to meet God and Jesus, "NOW", because we are not knowing when our number will be called. Mark was a Christian. That is the only comfort his wife and family can gain from this situation. The son was a Christian also. Are you guys ready to go? I am. If not, you need to find Jesus and become a faithful follower of Him. Judgment is real and will be faced by all, in the next realm. "The Realm Of Departed Spirits." Learn about it from the pages of the/your Holy Bible. "It is truth, Guys!" Edited to add: Read about our impending death in (Luke 16:19-31) It is red letter text, straight from Jesus Christ words, recorded for us in Luke. That will be our next realm should Jesus not come back to earth before we meet our death first.

IMO, the NRA is a useful whipping boy. They have the name recognition across pretty much the entire spectrum of political leanings. GOA, FPC, etc, not so much. And I like it that way. This gives the anti-gunners a big NRA-sized target and leaves those other orgs doing the actual work mostly left in peace to do what they do. The NRA is sort of a useful idiot.

The higher ups sure had a good time on our money. When they busted Wayne LaPierre on all his illegal perks to the tune of 5.2 million, it sure shined a light on their corruption. I was no longer an NRA member after almost 30 years. I'm sure we're kicking a dead horse here, but good to be reminded why gun owners should swing their support to Gun Owners of America and other such pro-gun organizations. Our local range, Middle Tn Sporting Association, voted to eliminate the long running requirement of belonging to the NRA to be a MTSA member last year. That vote easily passed.

I don’t care about the 200 dollars, I care about the pita process with the ATF and all the legalities of ownership. If I want to take my sbr into another state for a class, I shouldn’t have to ask permission.

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.

Sure. I've bought firearms for flimsier reasons.

Making room in the safe... I have a super clean P320 AXG Legion for sale. It has less than 400 rounds through it. If you aren't familiar with the AXG Legion model, you're in for a treat. Its built-in comp and metal frame makes for a super flat and fast shooter. Gun sells for $1,369.99 new. It has the Sig Romeo 1 Pro Red Dot mounted. Going for $275.49 currently on Amazon. As well as a Streamlight TLR-1HL weapon light, currently selling for $145.96 on Amazon. It comes with 7 mags. It came with 3 mags new. The 4 additional mags cost $100 when purchased. I had a custom OWB holster made at Fury Tactical, in Maryville, TN. It was $125.00 It also comes with a nice had case. The hard case was $35.00 I have a total of $2,251.46, including tax and shipping, for this nice setup. Asking $1,500 Located in Maryville, TN. Not looking for trades at this time.

The gun is faulty. You should not be able to shoot yourself without putting the muzzle to your body and pulling the trigger. Sorry you like the gun, but "My gun has never done that " type of talk doesn't cut it when lives or on the line. Something is going on and Sig is responsible for every injury at this point.

An absolute travesty when someone who signs up to serve their country is let down by the equipment issued. Non-combat deaths are just as gutwrenching as the ones downrange. This Airman and his family deserved better. Any organization still using this pistol needs to wake up, fast.

I have what I believe to be is an unfired, LNIB Winchester 1886 Extra Light in 45-70 for sale. Made in Miroku, Japan. Includes a brand new and uninstalled Lyman receiver sight. This thing is absolutely beautiful. They don’t make this model anymore. $1225 cash FTF around Columbia to a Tennessee resident over 21 years old who is legally eligible to own firearms. HCP preferred. Not really looking for any specific trades but you never know. Could always use a Trijicon RMR HD.

It’s like new in the box- very low round count, includes one magazine . this gun is a custom built 45 auto with the STI staccato Quality parts. It’s been a safe queen for a number of years and shows little to no wear . If you look at the pictures, the only imperfections you’ll see are due to lighting. It comes complete with box, included tools, one magazine, paperwork, hanging tags, etc. I’m looking for a face-to-face sale -meet in Williamson County in Brentwood Franklin Nolensville . In this middle Tennessee area in other words. These show up on Gunbroker from time to time and are in the $11-$1300 range depending on condition. I’m asking $1200 or best offer. Please reach out to me through TN gun owners if you’re interested . it’s basically a high-end 45 auto suitable for competitive shooting similar to the Wilson combat and other 45’s of that nature.

This pistol was made in Georgetown Texas . absolutely like new , original in perfect condition. Let me know if you’re interested..

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.

READ FULL AD I’m selling this UNFIRED colt stainless 1911 on behalf of wanting an old military or civilian antique 1911. It’s unfired because it’s my gun that I bought new. Buyer must sign bill of sale with DL# included. If you look like you’re up to no good, we won’t be making a deal. $775 is a great deal for this firearm so I can’t go any lower. Thanks in advance. EDIT: Due to the massive increase in messages, I’m changing the status of the ad and remaining in contact with people interested. Thanks.

FFS Fuddclowns, just shut up. GOA and NAGR are doing all the heavy lifting with FPC helping. NRA is a dinosaur org, full of corruption, which has engaged in a symbiotic relationship with the jack-booted baby burners of the ATF in a kabuki theater of "muh activism". Been sick of it for a decade, and then some. FU NRA, go away.

I had a heart attack April 2024. Blood clot went to my heart. As I was leaving in the ambulance, I felt the attack taking place. Lost control of my arms, legs, sweating profusely, lost my vision, and was slowly slipping away. I knew it totally and was ready to go into the next realm. I was NOT scared in the least and welcoming my next life in Paradice. My wife spoke up, from the front seat of the Ambulance, and I began to realize, I was not the only one affected by my passing. I ask God to keep me here, if it be His will. In 3 minutes, I knew I would be coming home from the Hospital. They took me to operating room, inserted the ballone and opened my artery, and inserted 2 stints restoring the blood flow. I now have 11 stents in my arteries around my heart. Dr said the clot had blocked the artery 100 %. Did Cardiac Rehab and came back to where I was before the attack. I thank God daily. Glory belongs to Him. I must surmise God still has something for me to do here in this realm. Being a faithful Christian is the only way one can have that kind of hope and experience. My trust was totally in Jesus Christ and had confidence He would do exactly as promised. I am proud to say I am a Christian and follower of Jesus. Praise and Glory to God in heaven. I will tell you I had guilt feelings afterwards and wondered why I lost total recall of my wife and family at that momentous time. Prayed about it for days. Finally realized we will go into the next realm by ourselves. My wife nor kids will accompany me. Mankind will face judgement on their own. We will be judged on the words contained within the pages of the Holy Bible, and what we did with those words, period.

I just don't get why removable FCUs are so revolutionary. I can take my FCU and put it in a smaller grip frame. Or a blue grip frame. So what. They seem kinda gimmicky. I don't see a scenario where I will pull parts from one frame and switch it to another based on some new need. If I want a smaller or bigger gun, I will buy a smaller or bigger gun.

My nephew came over today and had a used Sig 226 9 MM he purchased from the guy that purchased it new. We took it to my range and ran 30 rounds through it. He wanted to hold down the round count through it. Round total is now 48. The 226 looked brand new and not a scratch on it nor any holster wear. Still in original box with all paperwork. Great pistol. Haven't met a Sig I haven't liked. I gave my Sig 229 to my grandson. He is a 40 cal fan. Edited to add. My wife said for me to give our nephew a gun. Gave him my new 686 + 3 inch, when I am through with it. Also gave my Grandson my Ruger MIni 14 Ranch Hand 223/556 2nd generation carbine when he was here last week. Going to take it to him in Sept when we travel to S Carolina and let him borrow it until I am through with it. Really thinning my collection so my wife will not be bothered with giving them away.

We've had this discussion before on here a few times. But I'm still of a mind that the NRA shouldn't be doing anything that isn't related to firearm safety, training, and education. They lost the plot going into legislative influence, and didn't do much of a good job. Let GOA handle all that, and SAF can work the courts.

@ TN Phil - The Taurus you mentioned is probably fine. A Ruger LCP or LC380, Shield, Taurus 605, Charter Arms .357, Rock Island M206, or used Glock would also serve just fine and not break the bank. If I had it to do over again, I would buy my first carry gun and then buy a good belt and holster, plenty of ammo, a way to carry reloads, a good light, frequent trips to the range, and classes on practical shooting - before buying another gun. You are starting a journey, not choosing a destination, and this stuff would help you get down the road smoothly.

I think they’ll be alright. Ruger isn’t interested in the brand name, but they were interested in the manufacturing capacity. According to what I’ve read, those folks still have jobs.

Ahhhhh....... the old "one-last-minor-adjustment-before-the-long-journey-what-could-possibly-go-wrong?" scenario. So, now I have to rebuild the transmission. More of an inconvenience than anything, but I made a further rod for my own back by making one of those 'while you're in there, why not?' decisions. I'm upgrading the shifter drum & pawl, plus the centering pin & selector forks to the much improved versions from a 2005 Twin Cam. The original 5 speed is bulletproof, but it is known for having a couple of issues: the pawl can go out of adjustment very easily making neutral a pain to find, you also get false neutrals, especially between 2nd & 3rd & 1st & 5th also have bad overshift. The Twinkie parts literally cure all of that & make shifting much, much slicker & more positive with less pedal travel & no chance of going out of adjustment. I picked up everything I need for just over $200 on ebay. Now I must need everything to get here & I can buckle it all back up again.

Honestly, I think Sig should have to do a buyback on all 320s.

Includes all original box and paper work for the MDT chassis, as this chassis was purchased new from MDT 2 months ago. Only has a small scuff on the front right arca rail from 2 matches...everything else is pristine on the chassis. This rifle is a laser! It loves everything you can put through it, but have found especially good groups with Lapua, SK, and RWS. See attached .2 groups from SK LR & Midas + Reason for selling: I'm upgrading to a RIMX for NRL/PRS and have loved this rifle! Round count roughly ~2k, so perfectly broken in with tens of thousands left. Please private message me with any questions or offers.

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