I can’t get the file to load. It’s too big.

I believe the 's about to get real. 437 new cases in Knox County this morning. A new one day record. And we won't see the peak from the Thanksgiving holiday for a couple of more weeks. Since Nov. 23 there have been 26 deaths attributed to COVID, according to the Knox County Health Department.That bought the monthly total to 71 and the total since this started to 172. Keep in mind that we only had 5 deaths through July 2nd. Currently there are 129 people in the hospital. Tomorrow they'll announce the available ICU beds. Last week that was 34. I suspect that it's fewer right now.

That's a beautiful collection!!! That top row looks to be a PPK and a PPK/s. The second row is S&W PPK and a PP and the third row is a ??? and a THP. Correct? What the first pistol on the bottom row? The PPK in .32ACP, is rare as hens Teeth! There's two on GB right now and both are north of $2K! I reckon the closest I will ever get to a .32ACP is to pick up a PP or a Czech copy, the VZ70. I actually have a soft spot in my heart of the little .32ACP. Kicking myself in the butt, for not picking up one of those surplus Berretta 81s back in the Spring and Summer.

Back in September, y’all may remember that I went into my LGS to pick up a couple boxes of high velocity .22LR. After I picked up a couple of boxes, I decided to peruse the gun cases, not because I needed or wanted anything, but just to see what they had, just out of curiosity, of course. In case three, a certain item caught my eye. It was an stainless steel Interarms Walther .380acp PPK/s, and it looked like new. I asked to see it. The LGS owner said it was part of a 40 gun collection that they had just bought. And they had the case, with the manual, extra mag, cleaning rod and test target. I looked at the price, $500. I thought “Damn, I didn’t come in here for this.” Then the LGS guy said the magic words. We just started 12 month lay-a-way program. I left the store, after putting down $50 to putting the Walther in lay-a-way. Fast forward to today. I walked into the LGS and paid off the lay-a-way and filled out the paperwork. While they were doing the background check, I asked if they had a third magazine. So they checked and one guy said they just had one for a PPK. Will that wasn’t going to work. Then the other guy behind the counter said “Are you sure it’s a PPK/s and not a PPK?” So we all three looked and it sure enough it was a PPK! So I walked out of the GunStore with an immaculate LNIB stainless steel Interarms Walther PPK with a third mag and a used FOBUS holster for it, that they gave me! I’m overjoyed and can’t wait to get it to the range! Just call me Bond, James Bond!

I actually carry a S&W 442 part of the time. I do love mine! But I would still keep the one that shoots the best!

Keep the one that shoots the best!

Beautiful rifles!!! Heirlooms!

Only because it's a revolver caliber. Those of us that have been around a long time, know what a great self-defense round it truly is! If I had to pick one caliber to carry, all the time, .357 would be it. Of course that being said, I have two handguns in .357 and never carry either one of them! I'm looking to change that in the future though. If I had the money, I'd trade my 442 in on a 340 or 360 in a heart beat!!!

Robert Redfield is the head of the CDC. Faucci is the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectionous Diseases. He is in that role because he is the best suited for it. His job is not a political position. Trump brought a lot of this on, because of his damned refusal to face facts. Fauci went a long with him, like a good soldier at first. Then realized that Trump was an idiot about this. Actually, he probably already knew that, but tried to play along anyway, until he got in over his head. He's a Scientist, not a politicain or a business man. God, what a piss pour choice we had for President in 2016!

Last Tuesday saw a new 1 Day High for COVID deaths in Knox County, 7 reported deaths. Since Tuesday, Knox County has had 13 more people die from COVID, as reported by the Knox County Health Department. COVID deaths for Novemeber have far surpassed Septemember's record of 26 deaths and now are at 45, with 7 more days to go in the month. Through July 2nd, we only had 5 people die in Knox County from COVID. Since then, we have had another 141 deaths. All numbers are from the Knox County Health Department.

I'm guessing that it will be a yearly affair, just like the flu shot. BTW, flu has yet to mutate itself out of existance. I don't think COVID will either, at least anytime soon.

I take D3 everyday, along with a multi-vitamin for men over 50, which has more in it and a Sublingual B12.

Tennessee is one of four states selected by Phizir to test distribution of their COVID-19 vaccine. Distribution could start as early as early December, if the vaccine is approved by the FDA. So whose up for being the first one to take it? Also Knox County continues to see a spike in COVID cases. Today saw 373 new cases and 7 deaths. Hospitalizations are also up at 86. https://www.wmcactionnews5.com/2020/11/17/watch-gov-bill-lee-gives-covid-update-virus-surge-continues/

A 9mm FNS, a 1982 Camillus Demo slip joint and a CRKT Minimalist Wharncliffe.

It did not like White Box, at all.

My Stoeger Luger .22 works fine, as long as I'm running high velocity rounds through it. It hates standard velocity. .22 chambers oin older European firearms tended to be ever so slightly smaller, so I read.

I've seen an almost 100% markup at my LGS on the ammunition they actually have on hand.

Didn’t they increase the trigger poundage from like 4.4 lbs to 6 lbs. on that change? I have a Gen 2 G17, that I bought new, and it has a very good trigger.

Thanks!

I must confess that I don't know all these acronyms y'all are throwing around. Obviously, I know what the NRA, TFA and GOA are, but what is SAF?

Yep. I'm thinking along those lines too.

Y'all left out the Methhead part. You both wrong. No one in East Tennessee knows what a Telephone pole is anymore. We all got cellphones. Now had you said LIGHT Pole, you'd have it. Oh and we allow Electric Poles too. We got to get our power for our TVs, microswaves and satellite dishs from somwhere!

I have a Rossi M92 in .3578 mag with a 16" barrel and I love that little rifle!!! I've also owned a couple of Marlin 30/30s and a Winchester 94 30/30. Loved the Marlins and regreatt trading both of them. The Winchester 94, I didn't like so much. I thought the action was kind of clunky on the one I had. I ended up trading it away on a revolver and I don't regret it at all. The Marlin 336s were both older guns and had very smooth lever throws. The Rossi, I think will become very smooth, given time, but I've not shot it enough yet. But I do love the size and the even more, the price!!!

I’ve been watching a lot of mil surp reviews on Youtube lately, and the reviewers say that exact same thing.

I agree and voted this way. I hope others do too.
