Winchester Ranger 9mm 147gr (RA9T) right now. Not sure what I’ll use when this runs out. I load up 5 mags of round nose and use my mag in my carry when I go to the range. I think I have a few more 50 round boxes left. I liked Cor-Bon when I had a G26 also.

Marlin 81DL with the Weaver scope option. Ramp gets a little finicky sometimes but still a great plinker.
Marlin Model 60 is fun too.
3 more but can’t remember what they are at the moment.

All that out in the open makes me wonder what's in the hidden compartment.
2 more single stacks probably. I should clean mine up a bit and add to this thread. Far as I can tell mine is early 1800’s.

Another fire hydrant stop eh?

Dad gave me a Remington 870 for deer hunting in the early 90’s. Still looks new, only dropped one with it. First handgun I bought was a S&W M&P40 in late 2008.

Magazines, Do people still read them things? I get one every month for being an NRA member and I give it to my grandson as he is the newest gun lover in the family. He reads everything in them. He is looking for a good Varmint gun w/ optics that he can afford. At 13 years old he does every odd job he can find to put money back for one.
I don’t know how they make anything on those. They’re so cheap I’m not sure how much gets back to school. I read the ones I buy. Last was a freebie subscription and gets recycled after one “sitting”.

Two weeks in and we got one already. Magazines. We do the PTO thing but would throw another $100 to not see another fundraising form.

I’ve got a Garrett Industries kydex leather lined you can try. Fits my FNS9 fine. May have to massage it a touch for the front sight though. Barrel should just fit too.
Send a PM and I’ll text you photos of mine in there.

I've seen videos of these. Being a 357mag fan, I'd get one if I could. Didn't realize the heft on these monsters, they have it weighed in at 5 lbs. Personally, this would be a range toy at that weight.
My avatar is looking towards the firing pin of a S&W 686 with a 6" barrel.

You have no idea. This is just a fraction of the phones I have.
A lot. We always have to buy the newest phones when they come out for test devices. We never do service contracts so we have to buy them at full retail. I spent a little over 2K just this week buying 4 phone versions we didn't have. It never ends. Just a cost of doing business.
You wouldn't happen to have an iPhone 7 or 8 (Verizon maybe) just laying there would ya?

Was there a gun buster sign?
Thats the only time I have an empty holster, and the only place I do it is to renew my license plates in person.
And of course the only reason I do that in person is because they charge an extra $2 to do it by mail, plus an additional fee for using the online feature.
it is odd that the gov wants you disarmed when they shake you down.
Honestly didn’t notice. Trying to figure out how to open the door without catching something. I understand your situation but if a bad guy wanders by and sees what I did they might stop. Keys easily would come off and find his car. If the holster was holding something I wouldn’t care either. But empty with car keys dangling is almost as bad. I believe other than uniformed officers firearms are no go.

This past Saturday, wife and I took the littles out for some putt-putt. In the hustle to get there as soon as they opened, we happened to see Keith Urban and Nicole leaving one of their children’s party at the facility which was awesome. On to the rest:
Kids wanted to go to a place I call and rhymes with chunky cheese. Knowing the policy I obliged but had something with an edge on it just in case pizza started flying.
Just about to leave and I noticed a fella with a Blackhawk Serpa on his belt - empty! Not sure the reason why. Looked to have snaps vs belt loops or the paddle.

@gjohnsoniv makes a terrific holster. I’ve got two pankake’s of his. Couple other guys make them here on TGO also. Use the search function. Talented folks on here.

If you have a good stand of it still, you can probably mow it. My neighbor enjoys it to keep spring weeds at bay until the burmuda kicks in and takes over. He doesn’t have to reseed for it either. It will burn off once the normal regularly programmed summer heat stays. My rye grass burned off the last few days finally.

No telling how much I’ve got left. Guess next range run I’ll try to finish it up so it’s gone. Could be there a while unfortunately.

I had one today. Short of wetting myself I put my handgun down and called the RSO over. Case ejected but hung up loading the next round. Nothing got damaged. Had a decent fireball (for 9mm 115gr) blow out from the chamber not the muzzle end. I was flinching a bit finishing up the rest of the mag and a half.

AT&T hires LEO to be with them for traffic puproses. They might be with one crew all day and they move around.
Both times I noted above traffic control wasn’t an issue at all. But at any point besides the 30 seconds it took me to pass them they could run into needing traffic control. Could be like other comments where you can have irate folks yelling in the ears of these guys if they are digging or working in neighborhoods. They sent outsourced door-knockers thru my neighborhood in the fall. They ignored no soliciting signs and I reminded them constantly.

Just curious as to when this started? Little ol' Spring Hill, TN is booming and just won't stop so I understand new lines and "switchboard thingy's" need to be put in. Up to a couple of days ago I've now seen two instances of this. I don't care really that they are doing this, just why the armed guys? One of the locations was an underground set up and the other above ground on the other side of the city. I can't think of a decent reason cause I don't relate to the work they do. Any info is brain food for me.
Thanks, me

Question
Lets say....
I live in the really bad part of Nashville and i see a ####ty car with 4 guys sitting in front of my house for 2 hours. Would it be assault if i say went outside and 'cleaned' my shotgun on the porch?
I wouldn't recommend it. If stuff went south your shoty is empty right? You are cleaning it correct? It might get stolen then the PD would come and ask questions and who knows what story would be given as to why your heater was taken from you.

Very nice Greg. A fella had one in my HCP class. I was staring at it like a kid in a candy store. I guess this line was introduced in 2007 which was when I was very green to handguns and much less seen a 1911 that close. I do know it was a 3" model. Enjoy it, hope to own one in a few years.

Welcome from Spring Hill. Northside Gun Shop is a tidy little place to wander about. No idea what’s going on with King’s down your way.

I’ll have to dig up where I got it and get back.
