I have to brag on my beautiful bride for getting me a Hold Up Displays 12 gun rack for my birthday. She is my best friend and puts up with all my craziness. Got it put up today and decided to show a few of my lever guns. When I open the door to the man cave this view smacks me in the face. I am truly Blessed!

Had a great time in Ohio with family - I can’t begin to tell you all how grateful I am...what an amazing group of people you all are...thank you and God bless!!!

2020 and Another Thanksgiving. Not a Thanksgiving as a youngster eagerly anticipating Mom being up and 5 AM to put the turkey in the oven and all the great smells of great food cooking…the rolls…the potatoes…the dressing…and, of course, my Mom’s homemade noodles. I think I could almost live on those noodles alone. The remembrances of aunts and uncles and cousins coming over for dinner and sitting at the “children’s table”! Not a Thanksgiving where I’ve “graduated” to the adult’s table or no table at all as we couldn’t always seat everyone at the table…not a Thanksgiving where I was

I think most folks know I lost Darby to Kidney failure about 2 months ago and I went on the quest for another best friend. I have Kasey and Darby both in urns on my Tv Console. I was limited to finding a new best friend as I couldn't go to the Rescue Centers in person to see the dogs. Well my daughter has Basset hounds and she went to pick up he newest puppy and she called me up while there and ask me if I would like to have a Bassett. The lady had a 6 year old female she was not going to breed again and was wanting to rehome her. She sent me a couple pictures and I told her to get the dog and

Doc here. Said my CRP is down to 8. It was 30. Big improvement.

Lisa's out. The kids put her up in a hotel to finish self quarantine. We'll see what happens with me.

Robert, you've been a member here a long time. I know you aren't looking for charity but I hate to see you sell your gun just to put food on the table. I will personally send some money your way to help hold you over until unemployment comes. I can't speak for everyone but I bet we have some other members that will help. Do you have Venmo? It's a free app you download to your phone. All you have to do is link your bank account(it's safe).

Robert, I just sent by PayPal. Started to send a check, but saw your info and doing it faster this way. I'm so glad to have a small part in helping out. May all this help to keep you safe and secure until things get better for you. May God Bless and keep you safe. Once again, I'm so very glad to be a part of this forum/community/family. We may all be hated and feared by some in today's world; but I see men and women helping each other here. Time and time again I see this happen. This cannot be a bad group. Way too much love and support evident here.

I've probably posted these before, but I had them out of the safe and snapped a picture. My father made each of my sons a deer rifle. They are Mexican Mauser actions with Timney triggers and David Miller 3 position safeties. They are both chambered for 257 Roberts. I hope they will appreciate them as much as I do.

I'd love to see all elected officials nationwide having to take it before using it on innocent people.

I bought this when I was deciding if I wanted to go .300 Win Mag or 7mm Mag. I really like my Montana in .300 Win Mag so this one is up for sale. This was the SCI Gun of the Year for 2019. They made up 50 versions of this rifle with the custom floor plate and Vortex Viper HSLR 4-16x50 scope. This is #1 of the group. The rifle is brand new and come with the box. It has never been fired. I do not think I have even loaded it yet. I also two boxes of ammo I will include. The rifle runs $1600 and the scope $900. With the ammo and fees I have over $2600 invested in the rifle. I will let i

Negative.

I miss Robert’s post. They were always well thought out and informative. I’m proud to help, but even more proud of the way TGO members didn’t hesitate to step up and help. Great job guys!

A friend and I squared off with a couple rounds of Battleship, .22 LR style. My CZ 455 vs his Ruger Precision Rimfire. The Ruger won the day. We started at 50 yards, but decided that was too easy, so we moved out to 100. Then the wind picked up and the round got more expensive. We added some last-minute tribal rules. Black dots are worth two extra shots. 100 yards:

Done nothing but sleep today. Yesterday was rough, today has been better. Looks like Lisa might get out tomorrow! I'm still on the machine.

A bit of Paypal and lots of positive thoughts and Prayers your way Robert. My wife and I just got in from the hospital, and I can't even express how Thankful we are. TGO is one heck of a family!

I’m beyond words at everyone’s generosity. for anyone wanting to use PayPal you can use either this phone number “615-682-2245” or this email “rbarmentrout1954@icloud.com” happy Thanksgiving, everyone...this is one I won’t forget!

I want to take a minute to wish everyone here on TGO and their families a very Happy Thanksgiving day and that everyone has plenty of food and good health on this special day!!!

Well, I had a great dinner without ever leaving the house. Daughter and son in law showed up just long enough to bring me dinner which they brought enough for about 3 people so I have plenty of left overs for a couple days. And for desert I have my choice of Homemade Pecan pie, Homemade Pumpkin Pie or homemade Cheesecake and I couldn't believe it but she made me a Mincemeat Pie just for me which will be my first choice......LOL. For years I have said how much I miss not having any Mincemeat Pie at Thanksgiving and no one has ever made it in the family. All they said is that's a Yankee pie and

You don't have to worry about the vaccine altering your DNA because it doesn't. As opposed to the traditional method of weakening a virus and then introducing it into your body so that you mount an immune response to a specific protein found on the virus, the DNA and RNA vaccines introduce genetic sequences of the virus into your body. Certain cells then use that genetic material to produce the targeted protein, which then stimulates the the immune response. The cells do not mutate (i.e., change their own DNA). There are actually a host of reasons why DNA and RNA vaccinations are a lot saf

New to Tennessee and to this board. Happy Thanksgiving! Paypal on the way to you. Erik88, thank you for your initial unselfish offer that got us all onboard.

I don't know anything about venmo, but I did see this post had 874 views. Come on guys if everyone pitched in $10 bucks that would be over $8grand. This is how you celebrate thanksgiving, by helping others. I'm in with a check all I need is an address.

Potential trade Plus cash: CZ shadow, CZ Bren 2, Dan Wesson 1911, Barrett Fieldcraft 270 or 308.

Those that know me will know that I have a weakness (ok, sickness) for 1911s. My safes are literally overflowing and I think I am at the point where I need to move some of these guys out to make room for future purchases. Sale Details: -Guns are located in Chattanooga, TN. -I prefer cash, cash, and maybe cash. (although I could possibly take a check if I know you) -Don't be a felon or shady dude...I will provide you a copy of my TN DL and bill of sale. I will expect a copy of your TN HCP or TNDL. * I have had a few people ask if I would sell all five guns with a discounted/p

Thank you I’m of two minds about it. On one hand, I want to hurry up and get back to work. On the other hand, I want to get this over with. If I come down with the ‘Rona now, then I can no longer think about it anymore. I am young enough, and healthy enough, to not have any of the high risk factors that I’m honestly not worried about getting it. The odds are very, very low that I would die. My job is a higher risk for killing me than the ‘Rona. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Selling my LNIB Dan Wesson PM-45 in 45ACP. I am asking $1350.00 for the gun. I have a total of 414 rounds through the gun and it is in the same condition as purchased. The frame is forged stainless with an undercut triggerguard and 25-LPI frontstrap checkering. The flats are polished to a soft brushed finish, and the rounds are sandblasted for a nice contrast. Double diamond cocobolo grips finish it off. No Trades Please. I prefer payment in Cash, Cashiers Check, or USPS Money Order only please. I will ship to FFL at purchasers cost. SOLD - Thanks TGO The Gun Comes With:

Dunno where that's from, but TN's official draft proposal looks more like this: From https://www.tn.gov/health/news/2020/10/21/tennessee-infrastructure-plan-for-covid-19-vaccine-distribution.html Specifically, from the PDF linked on that page at: https://www.tn.gov/content/dam/tn/health/documents/cedep/novel-coronavirus/COVID-19_Vaccination_Plan.pdf - OS

It's NOT Smith's need to have a price...It's part of the TGO agreement for selling here. You have to specify whether you are trade or sale. Sale posts require a price. Check with Mods for verification. Edit...addition. On the request for a location...I agree with that. Not everyone posts their location on the icon/screen name. I helps prospective buyers to know where a person/article is located. Might help sell.

Might want to put a price on it and tells us where you are located.

The cost for being unprepared can be expensive. We were raised to be prepared first, then add other things. Seems it's just the opposite today.

We continue voting into situations that we will eventually have to try and fight our way out of. History confirms this.

They’re not. Not only do they not get sick, they don’t seem to spread it either. If any group should be at the very bottom of the list, it’s kids. My dad who is in his mid-60s and staying at home today because he doesn’t want to take any risks should be way ahead in line for a vaccine than my 3 kids (3y &9y). It’s stupid.

I could be wrong, but I don’t think any of that will help. There is too little time, too many jurisdictions, too many criminals counting and changing ballots, and too little hard core evidence that can be used in court. Couple that with a mindset that criminal acts are justified to get their way “at any cost”, fear of riots if the elections were legitimate, and the biggest percentage of the media siding with the liberals; and we have a problem that will be tough to overcome.

We better hope the SCOTUS helps. They are going to have to do their job. “It’s within our grasp to end our gun violence epidemic and respect the Second Amendment, which is limited.” The SCOTUS has to quit dodging the issues and lay out precisely what our rights are. Of course if the Dems are allowed to pack the court; that will be a problem. We just lost Remington even with the “Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act”. They could no longer afford to defend themselves. If that is repealed; all our American gun manufacturers will be gone. And it appears “imports” can be easily

Thanks again to our TGO family. My bride and I made it home about an hour ago. She had a vigorous day of PT and OT and we are both ready for a good night's sleep in our own home. We are truly Blessed. We wish you a speedy resolution to your situation @BHunted!

Agreed. That's how I remember it as well.

Just sent you something on Venmo. This is why TGO is a great community. Stay positive Robert.

If this has been posted before, I missed it, so forgive me. I thought it was hilarious and wanted to share it. A Pastor bought a Donkey and decided to enter him in a race. The donkey won. The Pastor was so pleased with the donkey that he entered it in the race again and it won again. The local paper read: PASTOR'S ASS OUT FRONT. The Bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity that he ordered the Pastor not to enter the donkey in another race. The next day the local paper headline read: BISHOP SCRATCHES PASTOR'S ASS. This was too much for the Bishop so

Prayers.

CRP means C-reactive protein test. Anything above 10 is a sign of serious infection, trauma, or disease. Mine was 30. So that is really good because the infection is going way down!!!!

I want to thank all of you for the kind words about Rosie and yes she is a sweetheart for sure. And as far as the spoiling, that began soon as she arrived here. The vet sent 50 lbs of her food with her and I put her a bowl of it down and she went 3 days without touching it so I had my daughter call the breeder about her not eating. The reply was she has always been a nibbler and does not eat a lot at 1 time. Well, she may be a breeder but I have had a Hound most all my life while growing up and Hounds love to eat. I grew up with Beagles and my son and Grandsons all have coon hounds and they al

Actual 98 Mauser with German proof mark. Chambered in 6.5x55 with a 22" barrel. Wood hunter stock. Tapped for scope bases. Thinning my hunting rifles.

A really fine example of Colts abilities with this platform early on. This is not only a pretty friggin cool relic, it is also supremely functional, eating any type or grain bullets that you want to feed her and putting them where you want. The bolt, bcg is marked and has all matching numbers everywhere on this beauty. The cleaning kit is in the stock and is absolutely unmolested. It comes with the weapon and one magazine as pictured. No box...sorry. Will take trades or trades/cash or just plain old greenbacks. I will also offer some 223 to the buyer/barterer if you want to purchase some for

I can speak to the homeless here in Nashville. We’ve had several cases - and some deaths. Luckily we’ve got some truly great non-profits here that have helped that population manage it like the rest of us have had to. I’m on the schedule to spend the night next week as a part of one of those programs - so I guess you could say I’ve got reason to keep up with the data.

Truth. Politics aside.... truly, take a deep breath and remove any political bias or right-left leaning you may have: Why aren't the homeless people dropping dead in the streets? If this virus is as deadly as some outlets suggest, if transmissivity is as easy as those same parties suggest, then this should have ravaged those populations in all the affected major cities (which is all of them) to the point they are non-existent. Seniors in nursing homes with hourly medical checks ARE dying in large numbers (and buckets of co-morbidities, but I'd digress). But a population of drug

Why aren't BLM and ANTIFA dropping like flies?, oh yea, only uber right gatherings are super spreader events, rioters are immune.

Sorry to hear about your situation Robert. Please disregard PM, I see you had a later post with your Paypal info. Sorry it could not be more. Very amazing show of support. Thanks Erik88 for kicking it off. Best wishes.

I'm in. I'm getting in a bit of a bind myself, but it's one of my own making. I'll have to suffer with it. Not a desperate situation, but I'll break loose a little as well. PayPal maybe? Other options. Helping friends and family. That's the only thing that matters to me anymore.

I will participate as well.
