  1. God help you, brother. Sounds like 10,000+ screaming teenage and pre-teen girls carrying on while a coupla thousand irate parents are trying to work the paperless ticket system. :lol:

    Bound to be a disaster! :eek:

    So do you at least get a ticket stub? Can't have a concert (or whatever this show is) without one!

  2. I don't know about it being paperless, but the process is called "Will Call", or least it used to be.

    You buy the tickets online. Once you get to the venue you'll go to the Will Call line. There you produce your CC & ID as proof of payment and are then handed real live tickets. You've already payed, they just verify your card.

    That's the drill I'm familiar with but am sure they've come up with a way to complicate a very simple process.

  3. So many Jewish organiztions and individuals! I fear they are again setting themselves up to be led off to slaughter. Anti-Semitism is not an exclusively German trait, it can rear up anywhere. ( Before everybody of German descent jumps up, I am first generation American and both sides of my family were from Wilhelshaven, Bavaria.)You would think they would be in favor of arming themselves. The Hebrews had a pretty extensive military history in the Holy Bible and they were pretty effective at times.

    I see a few in that list but honestly am not familiar with all the Hebrew groups in this county. Never really cared. I'm not Jewish nor do I care who is.

    What I do care about is the perceived oppression of Hebrews. Presented here are a bunch of groups supposedly against whatever the NRA says they should believe in, however in Israel military service is mandatory, therefore the operation of firearms is as well. Point being, why do USA Hebrew groups oppose guns while it is a way of life in Israel?

    Furthermore, if the USA insists on screwing around in that part of the world, we best take some lessons from Israeli forces.

  4. Can anybody recommend some good ammo storage boxes? I have one of those military ammo boxes and I really like how tight the seal is on it, but I can't seem to find any where that sells them.

    I know Plano makes some but the seal isn't tight at all.

    Any suggestions?

    You can usually find the military surplus ammo cans at gun shows. They are the best for storage. If there are any Army surplus stores around they usually have some. There used to be one around the Vandy area.

    If you are ever through Crossville C&C Surplus right off the interstate ususally has a bunch in all sizes.

  5. I recommend something like this:

    Yugoslavian 24/47 Mauser rifle, Matching bolt, 8mm.

    this:

    Welcome to Samco Global Arms, Inc.

    or this:

    Mosin-Nagant 91/30 Round receiver rifle, 7.62x54R caliber. Plus condition bore option.

    There are still military issue Mausers and Mosins available in that price range. There is also surplus ammo for both. The Yugo Mausers may have not seen any action but the Mosins most likely did.

    Both are a great way to start the life-long mil-surp addiction. That is as long as he can handle the recoil!

  6. That would be my preference. Unfortunately I have to drive over an hour to a range. I see you're in Jeff City. You know anywhere closer than Sevierville to shoot? I was debating going to Tri Cities Gun Depot or Coal Creek Armory today, decided on Coal Creek because of the range, checked their web site for hours (at about 2:30) and found that they close the range at 4 on Saturdays for carry class qualifications. Foiled again. A group of us between Knoxville and Tri Cities need to get together, lease some property, and start a gun club so we have a place nearby to shoot.

    There is an outdoor range in Norris and one in Knoxville.

    We're also having a shoot next Saturday.....

  7. Don't want to derail the topic but OP started it! Today the co-pilot of the B-29 that bombed Nagasaki died. He was 88.

    The Greatest Generation is rapidly dying off. I would love to spend the afternoon with a WWII combat vet! Just to shake his hand.

  8. I think they called them "Gallery Guns" because they were used in carnival shooting galleries. My grandfather mentioned the little .22 short pump action rifles he used to shoot a the carnival and this one looks exactly as he described.

    That's what I'm thinking. Gallery Guns were usually .22 short back in the day.
