You do have a point.

I've thought this for years, Should be a requirement for all schools, regardless of public or private.

This. He only shows up when something happens, spouting borderline antigun rhetoric and stirring the pot. Otherwise, I've never see him contributing anything else here. I blocked him. Better for both of us.

This! I think it's time we (the Firearms Community) start coming up with our own common sense solutions to these issues, or the other side is going to end up winning on this issue and none of us will be happy. Wishing it would all just go away, and ignoring the issue ain't working.

I think it's a huge problem. While we might not see state run mental health facilities for a long time to come, if ever, I think there was and still a place for them. I for one would love to see them come back. However, I don't think for a minute that this would be some panacea for what is happening with most of these mass shootings that are occurring. For the most part, I suspect that these people would be still walking the streets. I can't help but think that somehow we have to come up with a reasonable way to have Doctors place some mental health patients, they deem a danger to themselves and other, on a DO NOT SALE list for firearms. Likely this is not going to make either side happy in the end. But I think all of us can see the need in this. At the same time I think that we, as firearms enthusiasts, need to figure out a way we can embrace Red Flag Laws. There has to be some sort of compromise on this issue at some point, or we will end up being on the wrong end of this issue. I think we can all agree that there are individuals out there that own firearms, that have absolutely no business having them. Another point to consider, is that mental health issues are just one part of the equation. A lot of mass shootings are innocent people getting caught in the crossfire between criminals or they are between then the criminals themselves. I believe this to be a small, but very dangerous minority of people. And I also believe that LE knows exactly who these characters are, in every city. I would love to see a successful sweep of these individuals hauled off to prisons for life or until they are so damned old they are no longer a danger to society. I think if we could solve these issues, you'd see a major decrease in mass shootings and violent crime. These things will never completely go away, but we'd all be a lot safer.

Prayers for all the children, teachers, parents, administrators, church workers and congregation involved in this act of evil. I can't help but wonder if instead of a reaction to certain legislation, it was an act against a religious target with a school. Because that would make a huge splash. Parents put their children into private schools for two reasons, better education and for safety. Well, the safety reason has just been taken off the board.

New Senator from Memphis eviscerates SB1503.
Moped replied to Worriedman's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
This is off topic, but what's up with Memphis Republicans? Rep. John Gillispie (R), Memphis, is a sponsor of this bill making lock boxes mandatory for vehicles. The Largest Source of Stolen Guns? Parked Cars. (yahoo.com) I'm opposed to mandatory lock boxes, but I don't think they are a bad idea at all. That being said we should not ever be making responsible gun owners, criminals. Even though this is just a smack on the wrist, that's exactly what you are doing. I would much rather see, public lock boxes at checkpoints, in County, State and Federal buildings for this sort of thing and for making HC Permit holders be able to carry anywhere. -
Honestly, I have no clue. I suspect these are the same guys that have been running a import business down on Chapman Hwy, for decades now, but I don't know and this is the first time I've heard of them.
-
No clue. I'd ask the question on GB and see what they say. They also have some BHPs, but some of them are really rough and they want $600 for them. Some BHPs that aren't so rough, are $100 more. But the CZ75s look exactly like what you want. They have different versions too. Saw some Bs in there too.
-
Tercel, there's a company here in Knoxville, that is selling surplus CZ75s on GB starting at $475. They have several. CZ-75 9mm Surplus Pistol - Semi Auto Pistols at GunBroker.com : 977791900

Glocks are boring as hell, but that being said, they just run and run and run and shoot good. Best all around semi-automatic on the market today. I'm a guy with Gen 2 17 and a Gen 5 45 with ameriglo night sights.

Congratulations. You've made me jealous!

Was that 124 gr?

My grandmothers both made cornbread. One made it every Sunday for lunch, after church. Mom made it every time we had soup beans or vegetable soup. I do the same.

Saved this! Going to try it!!!

Eggs is something I'm qualified to speak on, since I buy them all the time. I got 18 large for $2.97 at Kroger on Friday. Picked up another 18 large today for the same price. They are coming back down!

Might get those fire starters to replace those near useless tweezers. I'll also order the toothpicks. I need to replace the others. I do use those.

Picked up a new to me Victorinox Lock Blade Hunter knife on Sunday, while antiquing with my wife and youngest. It’s been carried, but never sharpened and the toothpick is missing. But I thought it was a good deal for $20. Looks like this. https://www.ebay.com/itm/374402881544?hash=item572c269808:g:dZ0AAOSwcwRjl3us&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA8LL5h%2B3RGt21oqhTVRzbVqe45v0Twb5ICSTayGWWW%2FZYGvNbx%2B8avDZe1UioEBi4XrvGZTlJGQeYrq2OZqzIOgx7dNK6WRt0mu4Oq0pVJfWZpPYfd%2Bd0SUKKzGVlfzJw8d7jXbovjuwBxB4gY3QaSXVwtmJRjEXnPnnEAHskwDhC%2B7BbgYSmNtabqg8odGrnaAOkUGkmp5HKpMEn1eigeaehimXd99gmocq8bk88%2FrChlBV3qAgUFncpvoVrqNIxUbfCDSwJ3zO5aI2KVv8SDU6PF2%2Btqb7A1oDyx4vcF934Rl5htgz8lHds0A2SMDEq6Q%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR47Js4bcYQ

Well, I was set to go back to Bill’s Outpost in Maryville and work a trade on a Girsan today or tomorrow. But the best made plans oft go awry. I won an auction on Harvey’s Auction site for a very nice pencil barrel S&W Model 10-7 yesterday afternoon. So I will be working on getting that instead. Woe is me. Please don’t throw me in that briar patch!

Rob!!! Peejman took care of you! Enjoy my friend! I use the recipe on the back of the Three Rivers Cornmeal bag. I do add just a bit more liquid, as I think the recipe as is, is too dry after cooking, As for the sugar no sugar argument, I like it either way! I ain't picky unlike others here. And my waistline proves that. Also, I believe most mixes, if not all, use sugar,

Looked at a Gray frame Girsan this afternoon, with a black slide. The price was $510. Seems a solid pistol. I've seen them cheaper though.

Credit card options considering the new merchant code?
