If you know where I can find good gun deals in ET please let me know. I can't speak for whole region but in Knoxville you pay what they ask. The FEW shops in my area have mediocre selection and high prices. Maybe my negotation skills are sliding but the store front shops around here are selective on what's high and what's not, who gets a deal and who doesn't. Of course I do like to see what I'm buying so selection is important to me. I like to shop around. If I am mistaken all you ET fellas please let me know!

While you're on the subject..... I have a '42 Lithgow with a Coachwood stock. Have read alot about having brass recoil plates in the stock to prevent cracking which mine does not have. If you know what I mean let me know.

Why are they worried about rent living in the projects? Have the normal sources of income dried up. I doubt it. If I owned a business and could help out the honest ones I would. Was born and raised there and knew a few that lived in those circumstances. God knows the economy is crappy everywhere but theiving is totally unacceptable. Let's see some folks who are about to lose a home and do not live on the guvment tit. That is truly heartbreaking. Have they discovered copper in Memphis yet or any recyclable metal? It's all the rage up here. People are stealing that stuff left and right.

Sure. O could could the county just fine. Can't get any more back-asswards than it is now. Do I want him running mine? NO McCain's most likely to get my vote. Just don't let my wife or in-laws know if we ever meet!

Congratulations!!! You say they called you to tell you it was coming . I received no such courtesy but had my business after 83 days. You might be a new record!

I know. Just quoting the book and every one is different. ET for some reason does command higher prices. At least that's my experience. I'm sometimes a cheap b@st@rd and hate paying more that I could somewhere else. Speaking in general terms here. What's the FBI connection? Did they pack'em?

Excellent point. The Dems will make tremendous gains this fall in the House and Senate. Most people are really fed up with the way the Repubs have completely screwed this country and over the last 8 years. This frustration will show again at the polls this fall. Knowing this it helps me lean toward McCain, although it's gonna be hard to do. The worst thing possible is to have both the Executive and Legislative branch controlled by the same party. The results are catastrophic.

Grimel quotes an excellent price. $500 is reasonable. Latest Blue Book puts in that range ($525). Sounds like Dmark needs it! Believe it or not, according the the latest Blue Book the 3.5 and 5" ones are worth LESS than the 4 and 6" ones. I've been told by several over the years that a 5" 27 is the ulimate. I'm always on the lookout for one but they seem kinda rare, are ridiculously priced and I do not need one! I've got a 6" model 28 bought at a pawn shop 10 or 12 years ago. Same thing just not as pretty. It's a big beast of a gun.

So I just finished reading this story: http://travel.yahoo.com/p-interests-23233092;_ylc=X3oDMTFyazc5MG8yBF9TAzI3MTYxNDkEX3MDMjcxOTQ4MQRzZWMDZnAtdG9kYXltb2QEc2xrA2J1cmdlcnMtMjAwOC03LTE1 about ruining a perfectly good piece a meat and charging way too much for it. Got me thinking. What is the best burger in Tennessee? I'll start by breaking it down by region (ET, MT, WT). These are my favorites: 1) ET: Vic & Bill's in Knox-Vegas. Many like Litton's. 2) MT: Fat Mo's in Nash-Vegas 3) WT: Huey's or Topp's (It's a tie for me) in Memphis Chain joints don't count! Who else has the good burgers!

Blackberries = Good Eatin'

12 Gauge = bigger shell = more powder & more shot = more power & kick. 20 Gauge can do all the things a 12 Gauge does but you might have to work a little harder at it and it doesn't kick as much The most versatile thing in the world is a 12 gauge pump. IMHO that is what to get. You can hunt and use it for clays. The recoil may be a bit much for the wife and son so a 20 gauge may also be in order. I use my cheap pump 12 for Sporting Clays and it does just fine.

And Memphis is #1!. Anyone remember last year's story on cities? http://www.forbes.com/2007/11/14/health-obesity-cities-forbeslife-cx_rr_1114obese.html

I have a little Panasonic bought at Staples that does great. They don't seem to have the same model anymore but go to their website and search for "Digital Voice Recorder". You'll get an idea of what's out there.

Is there a story here? Never talked to him personally but he's quite a prodigious poster. BTW. The Band rocks. Have seen The Last Waltz many times lately on VH1 and on one of HD channels. Directed by Martin Scorsese who also did the new Stones movie that's out. Saw Band in Asheville back in '96. Good stuff!

How much E. Coli is involved?

You may have hit the nail right on the head. This is an election year and if you have any idea of how crooked and back-asswards Knox County politicians are you'd understand. The County's politican shenanigans of the last couple of years are well documented and have made them a national laughing-stock. It's obviously campaining on the tax-payers dollar. The elections are less than a month away and as an APPOINTED official until then he has found a way to send out some free advertising. I seriously doubt the Chief LEO is concerned about your permit status. The names and addresses of permit holders are certainly something he has access to via the office. Doesn't the application process involve the local Man? The records of registered voters for political gain he does not - unless the campaign requests and pays.

Just whip out your business. Then you'll know.

It came today! Exactly 83 days! Applied Friday, April 18th - the thing came in the mail today, July 10. I'm so confused now I don't know what to do. Go to Wally World I guess.

Can you go ahead and do that for us? I've got a feeling that would be a good way to have your application put on the bottom of the stack!

I have one in .40 cal. It is outstanding and shoots extremely well. I used it for my HCP class and removed the entire X-ring and everything around it. Have had 0 problems, misfeeds, stovepipes, etc after 600 rounds or so. They are made (or Distributed) by Magnum Research now, not IMI. http://www.magnumresearch.com/Browse.asp?Category=Baby+Eagle:Pistols

Go cap n' ball with a couple of extra cyliners - Josey Wales style.

Thanks for posting this. I reread it this morning and thought it would be good for everyone to brush up on some history. Read carefully - some of this still applies today! He = King George. Hmmm...

If you see one of those fancy Watermelon Baskets lovingly crafted by the ladies at your 4th of July bash dump some PGA in it and watch the fireworks fly!

db99wj - Thanks.
