It was a nice day for a motorcycle ride yesterday, and I came across this near Georgetown. Sorry about the poor pic, I didn't have a "real" phone with me and had to use my phone, with which I have NO practice. Still, I thought the car and the service station were really cool.

@Grand Torino sent me a PM a couple of weeks ago about a Bowie Knife he was finishing up and thought I would be interested in it since I like the big blades. Got it sometime last week and thought I'd post a couple of pictures of it.

As long as there are employers who are willing to hire illegals, they'll keep coming. Neither political party will do anything to impose penalties on those employers, and we all know why. And thus the illegal immigration problem continues.

Sold

I was saying this very thing to my wife- I noticed an awful lot of people there that are at least as old as I am if not older- There isn't enough money in the universe to get me at a action such as this- Those my age and older should stop and think of the real reason they are there in the first place- There are way too many that are believing the lies put out by leftist media- I would think that by the time you are old enough to start using Metamucil you wouldn't be foolish enough to believe everything you hear- And shame on your old ass for getting involved in stupid crap like all this in the first place-

If they are deported and then return it is now a felony from what I understand. Also if they are deported they are not eligible to legally return ever. Sneaking back in is much harder now as well. If they self deport they can try to come back legally.

Alright, update on this post...thanks for all of the info, advice, and tips on this post. As of right now, I am awaiting my very first AR-15 5.56 16" to arrive at my FFL in just a couple of days! After all my research, the info I received here, and a sale I could NOT pass up for Father's Day, I will be the proud owner of a Watchtower Type 15M. I will be setting up a small shooting range on my property this week and moving it to the back of my property later this year. Might as well make use of the 17 acres we own out here. Planning on providing pics once the rifle gets here, as well as pics of the range evolution. Looking forward to this new adventure, and yes, safety first and member of GOA, NRA, and USCCA to help further my education. Will be hitting a few ranges in the next month or so as well just to stretch my legs a bit. Hope y'all don't mind joining my pride in this journey as well!

As far as the 22 situation is concerned a Ruger mk series pistol and Ruger 10/22 rifle are as solid as you can get. To me those are "buy it once, buy it for life" choices. Good luck, there's no shortage of good options out there.

I personally don’t think too much of AR’s for hunting or home defense if we’re talking .223/5.56mm, but I don’t hunt and in my abode a rifle is inappropriate. If it’s reached obsession point, Just go to Palmetto State Armory’s website and order the cheapest one they have and get it out of your system for $500-$600, maybe less. They make very serviceable, quality, and accurate weapons. Don’t fret about politics, society, or alphabets…that’s all overrated.

If I wuz gonna split between hunting home defense, I would recommend a Palmetto State Arms 300 BO carbine. They are cheap. They work well, and they are a man stopper n light game getter. The price would be low, and ya could save some dollars n buy a good trigger to drop into it ( or any other AR ) and maybe it a bunch more usable for both jobs. The ammo is about as reasonable as 556 if ya shop around. Also, there are states where ya can't hunt large game with a 22 caliber. leroy.

Sold

So many moons ago, (early '80's), I had to make a decision what I liked and disliked. Dept required we use something that could fire .38 spl. So, with not much to offer, it was either going to be S&W or Colt... Went to the shop and I needed to be convinced of which. Then, it was a matter of preference. The S&W rattled a tad when you shook it, the Colt, solid as a rock. So, my love of Colts started up. Within a short period of time, I bought a 4" Nickel Python, 6" Royal Blue Python, a Nickel 1911 MKV Series 70. Short after, ...the Colt Lawman Mark III .357 My carry was the 4" Python and backup was the Lawman. My dept was hell bent on not using revolvers anymore, so I was able to carry the 1911.... (would be nice if they paid something), but truth be told, revolvers were not that expensive, and I already had what I needed. Over the years, I started getting more interest in semi-autos and went with HKs... I sold my 6" to a guy in AZ, my 4" to a kid just out of the academy and my Lawman to the guy that owned my marina... Knowing what we know today for the going price, I kick myself in the arse for getting rid of them. Who would have known. Kept the 1911 only for remembrance. Eventually had it chromed, (nobody does nickel anymore ,(and if so, would be very expensive) ... and fitted with tritium sights my old eyes could see... So, my quest. I just got my hands on an excellent 1976 vintage Lawman Mark III. Must have been in someone's safe for decades because looks like it was never shot. Still had cosmoline on some parts. I got a deal that I could not pass up. I will slowly rebuild my Pony/Pythons of yester-year. My only Colts and hopefully not the last, (excuse the tint and oily prints. They are both shiny mirror like. Hard to get shot without reflection..) :

Very nice older S&W 29-2. Pinned and recessed, 3 Ts, Magnaport, Hogue grips. S284xxx Nice enough to collect, not too nice to shoot. $1475

New guy trying to stir the pot. I've carried 1911s for about 40 years. Ain't dropped one yet.

I love Colts. I will always pick one up if I run across a good deal on one. Here is my current collection of Colts. Revolvers: Anacondas in .44 mag and .45 colt, Python, Officers Model Match in .38 spl and .22 and a Bankers Special in .38 S&W 1911's: 2 USMC Decom M45A1 CQB and a Lightweight Commander

I talked to my son-in-law yesterday and he told me the morning was fine and crew was getting job closer until 3 white vans showed up and 8 ICE agents got out. 30 minutes later he had to shut the job down because he was now 17 men less working. ICE arrested 17 illegals on his jobsite and took them away. They were all men from a Temp Service. He found out later that day that ICE went to the new Football Stateum Lost 48 Temp Company employees to ICE and they had to get more vans to pick them up. My son in law went to the office of the Temp Service to find out what was going on and why their Temp workers were put on jobs when they didn't have Green Cards and the guy said that they were not required to check for green cards. Son-in-law informed him that they would not be paying them for the half day and would not be back for workers anymore. Now with that said. If anyone on TGO is looking for a good paying job Liberty Construction is hiring legal citizens and Americans. If you are interested send me a PM and I will hook you up.

This Hi-Point Model 995 is chambered in 9mm. It comes with 4 mags and a stock sleeve with mag pouches to tame the fierce recoil of a 9mm round from such a heavy weapon, LOL. Seriously though, it's a ton of fun to shoot if you ain't worried about shooting ugly guns (no offense meant to you Glock Fanboys). $200 and this beauty is yours, I'm in La Vergne, TN but will try my best to accommodate a reasonably close meeting place. PM me if you have any questions. Would trade for 9mm and/or 5.56/.223 ammo.

For sale is a CZ 2075 D RAMI for $600. CZ discontinued this model in 2020 for some stupid reason because it's one of the coolest pistols they ever made. This one is located in La Vergne, TN, but I'll do my best to make a meetup convenient and easy, if I can. PM me if you have any questions or need a specific pic I left out. This RAMI is a 9mm subcompact with a 3" barrel This is a BD model with a decocking lever instead of a manual safety It comes with 2 mags: a 10-rounder for concealed carry and a 14-rounder with a sleeve for a bit more purchase on the gun The grips are G10 Starburst texture for extra grip (if I find the original thick rubber ones before it sells, I'll include them) The coyote brown Cerakote finish is not original. The previous owner had it done. Whoever they used did a spectacular job. It looks great, IMO! The original case, owners manual and other paperwork, and the original sights are included I took it to the range today and ran one of each mag through it before cleaning it up to be sold. It ran like a top and I almost didn't make this post, LOL. Here's some pics:

If you want a rifle for home defense, go with a PCC in 9mm or .45. Or a lever action in .357 Magnum (.38 spl) or .44 Magnum (.44spl). Both magnum calibers can and are used for hunting.

Situations may vary, but most of the time a rifle is not the best home-defense choice. Over penetration is a real concern with the bullet very capable of passing through multiple walls inside the house and exiting the house. Either can strike an unintended target you couldn't see but are still responsible for. It's also harder to move through a confined space with a rifle. The AR platform makes that somewhat easier with collapsible stocks and usually a significantly shorter overall length compared to a traditional hunting rifle. Home layout, construction, and location are variables unique to each person, so YMMV. But an AR-15 is a very good rifle for lots of different things and can be kitted out to your personal tastes pretty easily. +1 to Palmetto State. As for the alphabet folks, there are north of 20 million AR-15s in the USA. They simply can't knock on that many doors. If there ever is a gun grab, it won't come in the form of random door knockers. But if you really don't want a paper trail, buy private sale in Tennessee. A great way to do that is to become a member here on TGO and post a WANT TO BUY ad in the TGO Trading Post describing what you want and your budget.

Just seasoned and fried, not tough at all.

I have an excellent condition: Benjamin 392 .22 caliber pellet rifle, oak stock, and Williams rear sight. It was one of the last oak stocks listed for this version when I bought it. I'm not a collector, just don't shoot it (safe queen), had some backyard pests that needed to be stopped. It is in excellent condition and have only shot maybe 100 .22 cal pellets through it (very accurate didn't need too many pellets). It'll put the hurt on backyard rodents and so much fun to shoot. Pump to the power level you want or need. Comes with a can of 500 .22 cal 14.3 pellets (very accurate in this rifle), a 392 o-ring repair kit, and tube of high quality pellet rifle oil. It has such low use, always keep a couple pumps in it for o-rings, that kit was never needed. Side note - No more pests $199 meet in Smyrna

As a genealogy buff, I found this idea very intriguing but could not bring myself to do it because I did not want my DNA in a database such as this. Really glad I made that decision.

Hey folks — I’ve got a private shoothouse set up on my property in Harriman, TN, and I’m curious if any fellow instructors or training groups out there would be interested in using it. It’s a live-action structure designed for force-on-force, room clearing, low light, movement-based drills, etc. Right now it’s set up for UTM/Sim/airsoft — no live fire — and I’m working on adding an elevated observation deck for better overwatch and instruction. If you're a legit trainer looking for a space to run your own class, host a workshop, or just do some serious practice with your team, shoot me a message and let’s talk. Open to collaborations, shared use, or even co-hosting events if it’s the right fit. Just testing the waters here to see who’s interested. Let me know!

I honestly don’t know now how many times I’ve watched Jeremiah Johnson. And I’ll still watch it every single time I find it on, and with just as much interest and enthusiasm as the first time I saw it.
