[Make sure you get the right permit and license]

this is new to me. can someone tell me if this applies to the senior lifetime license? i did "try" to look it up but struck out.

[is partial view from under shirt legal?]

been through this 2 times since i got my permit. both were state troopers. one even unloaded my weapon and told me to put it under the seat.. last one was discussed rather warmly after he told me he was not going to write me. would have been rather expensive for what i was doing no excuses.

[Could we have all been felons......eventually]

We're all felon's already.  You can't be an adult in this country and do anything of substance without unknowingly violating dozens of laws every year.

i was told years ago by an agent that if he wanted me he would give my name to a guy on a computer and he would bet money that something would come up illegal that i didnt know i was doing.

[Schumer, McCain say gun control bills will return]

"Eventually"?? That's already happened Mike. Between federal and state statutes, you likely committed a couple of felonies if you left your house.

this old man was told that by an fbi agent several years ago. said if we want u  we can and will find something u are doing illegal

[TN man who received Obama pardon still can't have guns]

JayC, i dont personnaly think it should prohibit him from owning a firearm.  Infact i generally hold that only those convicted of violent offenses should be prohibited.  It's just the irony of the situation that i was wanting to point out.

i whole heartedly agree

[Manchin-Toomey Bill.]

A-men to NO more compromise

[Bill Oreilly arguing for registration]

he can take his anti-firearm crap and stick it where the sun dont shine. i do not watch him any more

[We were sold out]

 for this old man one was out and corker was on the fence. looks like he fell off on the wrong side for me and mine

[Private Sales May Be Next 2A Infringement]

i think we already have registration. have a friend that bought a handgun 12-15 years ago filled out all the paperwork. kept the firearm about 2 years didnt really like it sold it face to face. about 8 years later it turned up in a shooting in florida. he was questioned extensively by an alphabet agency.

[Info on lever action .357 and .44 magnum rifles?]

guess this old man was lucky got both 357 and 44 marlin for less than 700. after first of the year

[Typical response to cuts: sequestration]

let it happen dont have much but willing to take my chances if it will stop this run away spending

[Gun Dreams]

i feel much better after reading this thread. thanks guys and gals

[This can't be true]

this old man has been stopped 2 times in 17 years for traffic violations. 2 state troopers and one county officer have read me the riot act for carrying cocked and locked and a round in the pipe. one even unloaded my weapon and told me to put it under the seat. he said i couldnt open carry even in my vehicle. good thing about it though they were so upset with the weapon they decided not to write a ticket. both tickets would have been EXPENSIVE.

[How Long Have You Had Your TN Handgun Carry Permit]

17 years here

[The 21ft rule - fail "these officers did not have to get cut"]

i have a nephew in one of the alphabet agencies that practices that rule and the best anyone has done is a tie. i used to be pretty fast and tried it with my son and knew he was coming and lost both times

[Ever transport gas in your trunk?]

55 gallon barrel of racing fuel right behind the engine in a dodge van in the 60s from gadsten to to chattanooga many times. can one say young and DUMB.  dont know how i survived those years

[squirrel hunting strategy and tactics]

havent tried this but going to soak 2-3 in buttermilk for 12+ hrs. salt and pepper a little hot spice and about 2 hrs in some worcestershire  sauce wrap in bacon and do them on the grill. did a rabbit this way a few weeks ago a buddy and i ate the whole thing. he is a picky eater

[FYI on Mayor Trying to Put Squeeze on Gun Manufacturers.]

From what I've been reading the mayor has little control over which weapons are bought and used by the departents.  it's up to the commissioner and/or chief of police to set the guidelines.  Seems like a lot of political pea-cocking if you ask me.

you are rite BUT if one thinks the head honchos dont stick together one has their head in the sand

[Boxer Wants to Control Carry Permits]

i firmly believe it is ALL about control.  with 4 more years of this president we aint seen nothing yet. as far as this congress goes what i think is not printable

[Mailing the HCP Renewal Application vs person to person]

person to person red bank tn. in and out 30 minutes with 3 ahead of me. 24 this month will see how long it takes

[Knoxville, Chattanooga and Memphis Mayors Come Out as Anti 2A! Time for Recall Petitions!]

i told my nephew who lives in georgia i wish they had littlefield back. he basically said they ran him out of georgia and u couldnt pay them to take him back

[Decockers]

from experience. DO NOT trust the de-cocker on a cz- 52 even when new many years ago they were known to sometimes go bang

[Charlie Rangle don't like Southerners.]

from what i have read he is really responsible for the hughes amendment. he pulled some of his slimy tricks and worked a vote that would not have passed other wise

[Anybody else embarassed to sell an AR?]

if i had an ar for sale and some idiot offered me 2.5 times what i paid for it i would sell and could sleep peacefully ever nite. shame i dont have one for sale it would be gone under those conditions.

[Piers Morgan Threatens to Deport Himself]
