My "New" Gewehr 88 in 8x57

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.

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.

or storage space

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

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. Price drop $800

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.

2007 Buell XB9R Firebolt. This bike is in excellent shape. Just under 5700 miles. Clear title in my name. Never been dropped or wrecked.

SSDD.

A tree fell on my house, and while this Sig P322 would allow me to dispatch up to 20 squirrels abandoning ship as it fell, like cowards, it won’t fix my roof. As such, the safe is being lightened. $300, cash only, no trades. (also have a P365 X-Macro in a separate post, would do both for a discount) Included: - Sig P322 w/threaded barrel - 3 factory mags - Sig Holster w/OWB and IWB belt loops - All items included in original manufacturer box (curved trigger *flat currently installed*, mag loader, dry fire tab, box, thread cap, etc.) Condition: Like New - two range trips and a lot of gleeful giggles.

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.

These are the kinds of conversations you probably shouldn’t have in someone’s thread. Do your own research or post about it in the appropriate section.

Great little ar pistol. FCD flashider and aimpoint pro are included. Everything else is bcm. $1200 takes it.

You could not pay me to possess one.

$600 I built this as a MEUSOC clone. The slide and frame are Tisas as well as the barrel, but all internals are Wilson Combat. Thumb safety is cylinder and slide. Grip safety has been tightly fit and the area reblued, so for consistency it really should be cerakoted. Pachmyer grips and will come with 2 mags and the original box. Also comes with a second Tisas slide that has been cut for an optic. Currently has an Sig Romeo Zero that is sighted in, but will fit any RMSc pattern sight. Colt threaded barrel with Wilson link and Wilson springs. I interchange the firing pin and stop between the two. This slide should also be cerakoted if you want it to match. All .45 ACP. Runs great in both configurations, even ran a few competitions in the MEUSOC configuration.

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.

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.

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.

Well, my experience is just anecdotal, but I can tell you that I just sold a rifle within a couple of days of listing it on this forum. On the other hand, I had my choice of several rifles when I was looking to buy something specific (on a much wider market). I think as in any market it amounts to offering up a reasonable price and getting lucky enough to find a buyer or seller who matches up with your offering or desire.

Basically good advice, unless one can clearly state the reason for modification. An eight # trigger pull can impair accuracy. If one can articulate a 4# pull enhances accuracy and helps avoid missing a target and inadvertently hitting an unintended target. Punisher endplates and other such embelishments certainly won't help you. Same with using reloads because you think they are hotter or more deadly. Safer to stay with LEO standards to one's area. Anything can be used against you but again make changes prudent, thought out and defensible. These recomendations come from Andrew Branca, Dave Spaulding, Mas Ayoob, and CCW safe, all who have experience as trainers and expert witnesses.

my favorite comment was "New fear unlocked" That's a crazy powerful round and the barrels are built like tanks. The receiver, not so much though. That story about the bolt being driven backwards into one shooter's should gave me the heebie jeebies too. That could have been WAY worse.

Those were the good ol days, huh? I remember thinking I needed 2 days to see everything and most of it was really good stuff, like private booths.

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!

Knife arrived today, absolutely beautiful. I have a handful GT knives now oldest I got about 8 years ago. I like them all, but it has been cool to see GT's progression as a knife maker over the years!

Find the highest NRR rated foam plugs and electronic muffs you can. I double up at all times. The db reduction isn’t directly additive, the muffs add maybe 5 additional db of reduction on top of the plugs, supposedly. Electronic muffs are the only way you’re going to hear range commands or conversation, but if you’re alone they aren’t necessary.
