It's easy to "spot" and "stripe" a carbon steel knife with mustard as well. I also used tobacco juice on an old Case Muskrat. That was on accident. I was sucker with the Muskrat at the time.

You can also pick them up at the local Gun Shows for about $110. That's about as cheap as they come anymore unless you have a C&R license.

They do? I think not. There is no paperwork to transfer over in the State of Tennessee, unless you want a BOS. I've never required a BOS from a relative or a friend. I think you best bet is to either report it stolen and by who. The police may not do anything about, since it's a he said/she said, but a report will be filed and you should keep a copy of it in your records. Or write it off as a lesson learned and move on.

You'll love that little pistol! They are fantastic shooters!

Got an idea on price? Man, I could see the Libs in Congress having a cow over this one!!! Awesome looking gun!

Neat looking! I think if that design pans out, those will be a lot more popular!

Millions of U.S. Service men went into battle with the cheapest of 1911s. No need to buy and expensive safe queen. Buy a RI, Taurus, S&W or Springer and you'll have all you ever need. There are much better uses for the money you will save. Use the money somewhere else or to help someone else.

I can tell you this scares the crap out of me. I work for a large Engineering Firm in the Water/Waste water sector. In the past we have always been able to ride out recessions, because the Government (Federal, State and Local) would pump money into infrastructure projects and pay for them with bond issues. If the State Governments start defaulting on their Bonds, there will be no money to finance these projects and they will dry up quick. Our business will go down the tubes along with most of the Construction Industry. That's a lot of people out of work. I've already changed jobs once because of the public sector engineering drying up and the company I currently work for, laid off most of the people doing it's public sector work over the last year. And now this. This could be very bad indeed!

+1!

I have a Condor OU and it's been a great 12ga. Really good value!

Serrations don't impress me. I prefer a plain blade.

Beautiful folder!!! Smoky Mountain Knife Works carries Queen.

Me, I've been stocking up. Figured I'd take my calorie store with me where ever I go.

Man, I hate to see a man taken to the cleaners! It's obvious that that G19 has been can't group under two inches. Poor abused thing! You should just send it to me. Looks like you got a great deal! Congrats!

You all are forgetting the Tokarev. I don't owe one, nor have I fired one, but it has to be one of the flattest pistols I've ever handled. I always found them to be ugly, but they fit my hand very well. I think they would conceal very well. Better say than a Colt Commander or a Radom.

BTW, this isn't a Tax Cut. It's just keeping the same tax rate. If they fail to pass the extension as agreed upon by the Republicans and the President, then it will be a TAX HIKE! Biggest in American history is what is being said.

Hey! I got a Springer too! It's a loaded and I love it! My Colt Agent is still my go to pistol, but like my Glock 17, I wouldn't hesitate to pick up my Springer either! Here they both are! The Agent got some character to it, but it's still a fine shooting pistol! http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/

No sure I would go that route anymore. Since I first started this thread, I've re-evaluated my thinking on firearms. First of all, if your on the move, a 1000 rounds of 9mm is going to get REAL heavy quick. If your on foot, your not going to be able to carry that much around. If your in a vehicle, a 1000 rounds takes up a lot of space that might be better served for say a 5 gallon jug of water or food or maybe a large box of nails or something else that's critical to survival. That's one thing that makes the .22 so nice. You can carry a lot rounds without having a lot of weight or taking up critical space that would be better used for something more important. If your not on the move, you need to ask yourself, is 9mm enough for defense or hunting? If I were hunkered down, I think I'd go toward a true rifle round like .223, 30/30, .308, 7.62x39 or 30-06. I'd want something that would reach out and touch something at a greater distance than a 100 yards. I probably wouldn't have a bunch of pistol ammunition. I'd want a lot of rifle rounds, though. Thousands if I were hunkered down, in fact. I'd also have a reloader, powder, bullets and primers. And thousands and thousands of rounds of .22lr and several rifles to rifles to shoot them with.

Saw some here commenting on the "catty" remarks by our diplomatic corp. Actually, that is their job. Those cables were never meant to be public knowledge for at least 40 or 50 years. They are supposed to be candid assessments from our diplomats of their counterparts. If the counterpart is crooked and demands a bribe or even hints at it, then they need to pass that on to Washington. If he or she speaks a certain way or uses certain language or likes little boys or girls then Washington needs to know that too. It's all part of diplomacy. Yes it is embarrassing when these things get out, but I guarantee you that other diplomatic corps are doing and saying the same thing about us. I haven't seen or heard a great uproar from other Governments about these cables. So I think it's really a big to do about nothing. It does educate the public about how things work and about reasons we do things. The leaks of military documents were much more damaging. They put our troops in harms way by telling what/when/how and where we were operating. They can be studied for trends as to the way we operate, though our enemies should already have a pretty good idea on that already. They also exposed contacts on the ground that we were using for intelligence purposes. For this the young private should be tried for treason and if found guilty, be sentenced to death, be allowed to appeal and then shot if that appeal is lost. I understand that the next big Wiki-Leak is to come from a very large American Bank. Rumor has it that is Bank of America. When this was announced last week about the Large Bank release, Bank of America's stock fell quite dramatically. Hate to be them. Should Wiki-Leaks be prosecuted? I don't think so. I think they are doing what our on news organizations would do, if given half the chance and we will never prosecute them. We obviously, as stated earlier by several here, need to clean our house up and tighten security of our documents, so this doesn't happen again.

I have to say I currently own a Glock 17 Gen 1 and it's a fine firearm. Been in my stable longer than any other gun, but it's my wife's house gun now. I owned a Glock 19 3rd Gen, but a buddy was looking for his wife a 19 for carry and being unsuccessful, so I sold it to him. I liked it, but not as much as my Colt Agent. I think they are great pistols, but to each their own, it's just not my favorite.

I have always wanted a Star PD! Had a Sergeant Major that had one on the range one time! Impressive little pistol!!!

Solar stoves are being used in Darfar in the Sudan. They are two cardboard boxes, one inside the other. The inner box is painted black to absorb sunlight, and the heat is trapped with a transparent acrylic lid. Captured solar energy heats up the air in the box enough to boil food and water and bake. There are also plans for collapsible ones on the internet.

My go to handgun is an old Colt Agent .38 snubbie. Comfortable to carry, concealable, accurate and utter reliable with a fantastic trigger pull.

Seems like a Pawn Shop in South Clinton was a Charter Arms Dealer at some point. The only place I've seen them is at shows. I've always wanted the Pug with a 4" Barrel. I think it's called the Target model now. I think the Pathfinder would make a dandy .22 revolver as well, if it's accurate.

I think we would have a bit of notice. An event that big is not going to happen overnight. I have a large part of my family that lives in one area. Once it looks like the end is near, I'd start moving supplies out to their places and then move my family. I'd leave nothing here. Strip it bare. I'd rent a truck if necessary. I'd want to be in place before the final ca-lapse. I'd also clean out my savings and start buying up food and whatever other resources that are available for long term survival. I'd max out my charge cards too. If it's that big an event, who cares. Again, I think we'd have some sort of notice regardless of the event, if it were going to ca-lapse all of society.
