  1. Hey Smith, very cool K6! I don't know if you remember my little Ruger .357 from our days at the store, but I still carry it more often than anything else. Congrats on the stellar new revolver that'll always get the job done.
  2. This. And fortunately, we just might have a majority of them who are willing to do that job. The Bruen decision begs the question - at the time of the founding, was any whole class of guns widely outlawed because you could fire them quickly?
  3. The Crimson Trace feature is neat, but really it's a belly gun. Works reliably. I think a safety on this kind of handgun is overkill, but if you use a good holster you can leave the safety off. FWIW, ball ammo is what I prefer in a .380 for max penetration.
  4. Welcome, Matt. Glad you found TGO. Give me a shout if you ever want to meet up at a range in Gallatin, Hendersonville, etc.
  5. Oh man, more importantly... they won't know how aggravating it is when someone asks you for a cigarette and then immediately after you give him one, asks you for a light.
  6. Absolutely. Also, they won't know how to read law the way dad taught me, using these old things:
  7. @ Darrell - Even in overalls, etc. you can wear a gun belt and holster. It just sits on your hips instead of on belt loops. A U.S. Army general issue riggers belt and inexpensive drop-leg holster might be just the thing.
  8. The problem with asking government to make responsible decisions with finances is that they can require people to give more revenue in the future to cover whatever costs are chosen. In a private company, the revenue is what you have and you have to work within those limitations. It requires a bit more ingenuity. Consider the Victory Memorial Bridge in Nashville. It has a flex lane whose direction changes depending on time of day (i.e. which way most people need to travel). That provides the value of two lanes of traffic but at the cost of only one. We don't need more fees and taxes. We need more ingenuity.

    Snow

    When it snows 6 inches in TN, there's no choice - you have to fortify and then attack.
  10. For someone who has learned the basics of firearm safety, I think a .22 or .38 revolver with a 3-4" barrel is a great first handgun to buy. They're simple to operate, can be inexpensive to buy, and don't require complex maintenance. The harder question is which gun is the last one to buy. I still haven't figured that one out.
  11. Up for sale is a red-brown leather holster by Simply Rugged. It is for a 6" barrel .357 and has a thumb strap with snap. If memory serves, this is the "Cattleman" model. I carried a Ruger GP100 in it crossdraw on several hikes and it worked well. $50 cash in Sumner County or I can ship it at your expense.
