10-Ring

On the topic of tin foil, if I wrap my laptop in it will the government be able to see what I'm typing?  What if I use the Reynolds Heavy Duty?

I find his actions appalling and unprofessional

So you found a paranoid guy hanging out in a gun store?

I think this one certainly falls under the category of play stupid games win stupid prizes.

I know that the University of Tennessee offers a variety of what are called "non credit classes" which give basic information on a subject.  Not sure if they have one on machine work but it would be worth checking out.  Most colleges, especially state schools offer these, pretty sure Pellissippi State does as well.

Geez thanks there's an hour that I won't get back.

Looks like we have a local contender.   http://www.thedailytimes.com/Breaking_News/story/Alcoa-man-dead-after-falling-off-top-of-moving-van-driver-charged-id-034260  

Wow, why is this just now coming to surface?

I was on Highway 129 in Blount Co. yesterday and the air was smokey.  Never could find a fire over there I'm guessing it may have blown over from Pigeon Forge.

Yes, I live in East Knox, not a consideration if you have children.  I don't think that there is a bad part of West Knox.  Most of South Knox is decent as well.  West Knox will be a little pricey but I still think that you should be able to find what you are looking for for under $1000 per month.

This is a great thing.  Look at how many people this will piss off.  She is only making herself enemies.  Even the most extreme liberals want to own guns themselves, they just don't want anyone else to. 

Tired of these people.  Don't want to sound too cocky but she can want in one hand and $*** in the other and see which one fills up faster.

My first guess would be that the semi was hauling a load that was, classified, dangerous, or otherwise special and had an armed escort.  That's just a guess, I lived in Oak Ridge for a while and someone was always talking about armed truck escorts around there.

Showing up for me, you had me scared there for a minute.

Not really sure where these people come up with this stuff?  As of April 2013 passengers may carry a pocket knife as long as the blade is less than 2.36 inches long.  The provision also allows the carry on of base ball bats that meet the criteria, pool cues, lacrosse sticks, and golf clubs.  Golf clubs are limited to 2 per passenger so I'm not really sure what the point is here.  I think an airplane is about as sterile of an environment that you can get.  An airplane is about the only gun free zone I feel safe in.  Not sure about these rules though.  It looks to me like some of these items could compromise safety.  I say either no golf clubs or I get to carry on my Glock, I don't care for this half ass stuff.   Sorry for the CNN link, I saw a news report on TV this morning and CNN was the first article that popped up when I searched. http://www.cnn.com/2013/03/05/travel/tsa-carry-on-changes/index.html?npt=NP1

The carpet throughout the house is filthy, I just can't tolerate it.  The safe weighs about 700 lbs.  My experience with laminate is limited, I know just enough to be dangerous.  I'm also thinking about just starting at the opposite side of the room so I could just go back and redo the last 3 feet when I'm ready to move, I'm thinking that it wouldn't be more than 3 rows that I would have to redo.  Unfortunately, the room the safe is going in is a front facing extra bedroom, it has double windows looking out at the street so these will have to be covered 100% of the time so as the safe is not visible from the street, therefore fade shouldn't be a problem.

One bad man down, many many many more to go.

My wife and I just purchased a house and will be moving soon.  I've never had a house before with a slab foundation but I do have experience with concrete anchors.  Anchoring the safe to the slab it self is not a problem the problem lies in what to do about the flooring material.  The room that the safe is going in currently has carpet but we are planning on ripping up the carpet and installing laminate.  Should I set the safe directly on the concrete and lay the flooring around the safe or set the safe on top of the laminate.  My concern is that we are only planning on living in this house for about 2 years and then moving on.  It seems that either way I do it I will have to redo the flooring in that room when we move.    Another idea that has crossed my mind is to figure out where the holes need to go and use a hole saw to cut holes in the laminate for the bolts to pass through.  I'm thinking when it's time to move I could possibly glue the cutouts back into the holes and it would be minimally noticeable.  Thoughts?

Retailers are going to sell this stuff right now, it is not going to sit on their shelves collecting dust.  If anything stores that are putting limits on ammo and components are doing us average Joe's a favor.  It would be easier for them to sell their entire stock to the first scalper that comes in as opposed to spreading it out over several customers.

I buy what appeals to me that will get used.  I realize that I will never have every single gun that I want but I will try to have as many as I can.  Right now I'm into .22s, and I will begin shooting them again as soon as ammo is available.  I pretty much have all of the necessary bases covered so I try to get things that I just enjoy.  I really like the older .22s, the cheaper the better, kind of one man's trash is anothers treasure.  I would like to add a large caliber revolver and a AR15 to the arsenal but besides that I'm pretty content with what I have.  

I had one once that I think would be just what you are looking for. It was actually an organizer that had several pockets for tools, duct tape, maps, flashlights, you know all of the stuff that you should carry in a truck. It was made of vinyl and had a sleeve built into it for a long gun. Here's a pic sorry it's so small.

4 million?  We used to call that a fun morning.

I need a new transmission for my truck.  It's a '95 F-150 and uses a E4OD transmission and is 4 wheel drive.  I had a guy lined up to rebuild mine but he has bailed out.  I'm not interested in a pull a part transmission as that is where the last two came from and I've done more transmission changes than oil changes since then.  I would like to find a used one with a verified history or have someone rebuild it so I'm just looking for recommendations for someone in the area that is honest and does good work.  Also I would prefer to buy the transmission and install it myself, I pretty much have that down pat at this point in the game.  Thanks.

If I'm not mistaken the Sig 1911s are not technically 1911s as their internals are different than that of a standard 1911 so it's possible those measurements may not work for your gun.
