Evidently this is how the Mexican drug cartels acquire over 90% of their cars.

I've heard of long range, high precision shooters trying to make sure the insides and primer pockets are clean. They claim it makes for higher consistency. I'm not a long range shooter - so I never worry about the insides and the primer pockets. I just tumble my brass and reload.

I'd be careful with dipping into acid. Too long could weaken the brass. You might not see the damage until it fails when firing.

Have you ever had the need for punctuation?

I have heard of success with ultrasonic cleaners. I've got one I use for other cleaning purposes - I just use a tumbler to clean my brass.

Great, gotta get a new keyboard now... This one is full of Diet Coke!

Designated driver? I don't drink at all but I have been known to hang out at a bar with friends that do drink. If you want to get real picky, there are almost no bars in Tennessee. What most people would consider a bar usually gets a restaurant liquor license. The recent law was not intended to allow people to drink and carry - its intent was to allow HCP holders to carry into restaurants.

As long as the FFL will accept it from you, yes. A non-licensee can transfer a firearm to a licensee in any state. The FFL can then legally transfer the firearm to your relative. I would suggest calling the FFL to make sure they are OK with you physically bringing them the firearm.

You can carry into places the serve alcohol now but you cannot drink.

JReedEsq, we agree completely on the first point. If only a 5-second delay was the problem, I'd have nothing to be concerned about. What worries me is when a cyclist is doing something unsafe (for them and others) but they don't care because they have a right to be there. Now, with most cyclists, all I have is a 5 second delay while waiting to pass. Its the other minuscule percentage of cyclists that cause me concern. I guess my point is that rights come with responsibilities. Unfortunately, for every 10,000 responsible people, there's a Kiwk in the world.

I'll agree that this is most often the case. However, I have seen cyclists whose behavior I considered a threat to me - I lagged well behind them until I could (safely) pass them with a very wide berth. All it takes is a cyclist to swerve at the wrong time to be a threat to a motorist (and themselves).

Listen to Broomhead. I took NSA off my list of gun shops to visit along time ago. I happened to hear they were under new management and stopped in. It looks like the same store but that's where the similarities end. CS is now a priority - they make you feel like they want you to stop in.

Its not your fault I'm slow on the draw...

I think a pedestrian that is walking down the road, in the lane, and not getting out of the way of traffic could very well risk taking a cola bottle upside the head! The biggest problem here is that cyclists and motorists are supposed to share the road. Pedestrians can usually travel out of the way of traffic. I **still** believe the problem is that some motorists and some cyclists are idiots. Most of both groups have no problem getting along, safely, with each other. There are some jerks on both sides that cause all of the trouble. It seems that some on this forum lean to the "cyclist is always right" or the "motorist is always right" camp. In reality, most of the world is not so cut and dried. Edit: Dang it, Jamie stole some of my thunder... Too slow again.

Oh I agree, whoever did that should have been arrested on the spot. Unfortunately, no cops were around (maybe they were all manning the Nashville speed traps ). The person that got hit didn't get the plates so there wasn't much he could do. Luckily he wasn't seriously injured - just bruised and scraped up.

The problem with bikes and automobiles is that people are in control of them. Everyone seems to be in such a hurry these days; laws and respect go out the window. I've seen cars swerve near cyclists. I've also personally known one cyclist that was hit with a thrown beer bottle - he showed us the big bruise down his back the next week at the office. I have also see bikes riding along in the lane (on a four lane) until they came to a stop light with a line of cars in both lanes. They then rode down the middle of the two lines of cars and swerved over in front of one the cars when they got to the front of the line. Once the light turned green, they resumed riding in the middle of their lane. I've also seen bikes go from street to sidewalk and back whenever its convenient for them. I think many people have seen this type of behavior and it is what they remember when seeing a cyclist. Basically, there are motorists and bicyclists that don't deserve to be on the road. If you see one or the other doing something illegal or stupid, call the stinking law and report them. Just make sure you do it from your cell phone while driving in traffic!

Now you've done it! If you get a case of Glock-butt in the next few days, we know why...

I'm in - let the fun begin.

Email Jeff at Mossy Creek Custom and tell him exactly what you are looking for. He can quote you on whatever configuration you want.

IMO, the biggest problem with education is trying to educate those with no interest (or parental interest) in getting educated. You can't make someone participate in learning. If the desire isn't there, they aren't going to learn. A side effect is they distract from those that are interested in learning. My parents made sure I was interested/participated in learning in grade/middle/high school. In that respect, I was very lucky. Of course, my Mother wondered if I was ever going to leave college and get a real job. She thought I was a tenured student!

Maybe they are just really tiny girls? jgm219, glad to know you and the family are OK. That must have been a scary moment when the tree hit the house.

I looked up the current Williamson County school calendar. New teacher orientation started on Aug 5. Graduation is targeted for May 29. They also get: Labor Day, Fall break (2 days), Thanksgiving (3 days), Christmas (10 days), MLK day, Spring Break (5 days), and Good Friday. This doesn't include the 10 snow days built into the calendar or the approximately 10 days during the school year without students (some of are professional development days, some are parent/teacher meetings). Teaching is not an easy profession but you must admit that teachers do get alot of time off compared to other professional jobs.

Driving up post counts? Raising some people's blood pressure? Or, as Erik88 pointed out, entertainment.

In the UK, there are groups trying to get the courts to enforce Sharia law. IMO, this bill is attempting to thwart any attempt to replace our existing laws with Sharia law. I also agree with Mike.357's statement that a judge could decide to let someone off for a crime that committed because of their religious beliefs. Maybe they are trying to address this with the bill.

strickj, when my wife wants to watch a chick flick of any kind (she has no interest in the twilight movies), we just snuggle up on the couch and watch the movie. Of course, I am surfing TGO on my laptop the whole time!
