If I could figure out how to post a picture besides using photobucket I'd do it. Winchester 1866, second model.

On the hunt for a 22 mag rifle now. Will have more free time Monday as the wife is at work and kiddo is at school. Dolomite, the stuff I have is in a thin cardboard package with one brick having 1986 and the other 1994 as a prominate date shown on the package. If I can figure out how to post a picture from an iPad I'd do it (maybe tap talk?). Guess I can get the other camera out and try that way.

I found this statement on another forum (tried to search here first of course), "The WRF has a shorter case, and is lower powered, but it can be shot in a .22 WMR firearm". Reason I ask is because while cleaning up my ammo locker, I finally looked at some of the stuff my dad had. I have 300 rounds of 22 WMR that I believe my bother has the rifle for in VA. Dad left it to him when he passed and somehow I got the ammo. I have plenty of toys that fire the LR, but if I can find something to shoot both WRF and WMR that would be nice. Found some 22MAG laying around also. Need to learn up on this stuff. Thanks in advance for suggestions.

Welcome from Spring Hill.

Call Specialty Arms II, they still don't have there shop open yet, but he answers the phone. That's where I found my latest purchase a few months ago.

Tuesday at this restaurant is kids night, meaning if I buy a combo, my three year old son eats free. They have music and a ballon guy that's pretty good. Between all of that stuff and free ice cream it's pretty busy. I've seen this word used before and I'm going to use it again. A high school "ass hat" sitting outside with something too similar to the Joker mask. Kept it on the whole time we were there. My right hand was starting itch as soon as he came in the place with a few friends and no one even batted an eye. I kept my hands in my lap and my eyes locked. If my son wasn't with me I might have said something. The owner, as far as I know, didn't say anything about keeping his face covered either, I would have if was an employee.

I usually wake up if a mouse farts, but slept right though this one. We lost power for only the third time in 7 years in this house. Dolmite is right, but also the closer to the radar site itself it's likely to pick up false returns. I used to drive by a radio station tower for a certain station I listened to everyday, picked up most static from it as I drove by it. With the power of these radars, cell and FM towers, closer isn't always better.

My renewal took 3 weeks. Went without for a week, but I was on vacation out of state and not needing to carry then. Staying with family that have the same views about home safety is nice. Procrastination got me. Could have done it early but just kept putting it off for some reason.

Just had a knock a few minutes ago my self. He either has great hearing (from the slide being racked) or great timing. Saw his back by the time I peaked out the window.

Howdy and welcome.

Found my M&P 9mm factory replacement at midwayusa or brownells. Can't remember which.

Between the heat, a long vacation and now rain the last couple of weeks, I haven't gotten out as much this year. Used to play every other week or there abouts. I agree with OhShoot on the putting thing. If I could putt, I'd be a scratch player. I guess I play to about a +4.

I've got my dads '80 something S&W 686. Built like a tank, hair trigger in SA. Never had any issues for the 7 years I have had in my possession with .357mag or .38sp.

112 in Spring Hill. Never experienced this weather before. Good thing is it keeps me from smoking.

Google shopping was pretty handy. Might as well unload Chrome on the July 1 too.

Welcome aboard

Because after I looked at all available options for what I was needing, I choose the 26 for size and reliability. With the extension, the height is still less than the 19 by 1/2" and 3/4" in barrel length at a confrontation isn't going to make any difference, training does. I could have gone with another manufacture for $200-$300 less and gotten a gut gun but I don't invest in guns that will go into the trash after 200 rounds. I made a great choice on my firearm as well as anyone else that buy's what they feel fits them.

I have been hunting for my first Glock. Last ditch effort to find one local before going the online route I called Specialty Arms II in LaVergne yesterday. Said he had one in stock and could pick it today. Since there rebuilding, I wasn't sure what the shop looked like. Well it's just the owner, a card table and a box that has orders ready for pickup. Painless transaction, good price and great guy. Stopped by the Saddle Shop for a holster and found the Pearce Grip Extesion (PG-2733). On the back it says it will add two 9mm rounds once installed. I tried my hardest to get the last two in. Won't go. Seems straight forward unless it really is just an extension which I'm fine with. Any suggestions?

Picking up a 26 Gen 3 (my first Glock) Wednesday if I can part with my cash.

There is a nice place close to Nissan in Cool Springs. I think it's around the price range your looking for. Miles Auto Spa I think.
-
I'm hunting for a 26 myself. Might have to give them a call next week. Sharpe looking D3.

Educate me, when it says no tax and free shipping, the FFL then puts the TN tax plus the transfer fee? Looking at a few sites now for a new CC. Just trying to get a solid number before I order something online.

Your right OS. For my year in the early 80's it was a MKII (1982-2004). Good catch.

Ruger MKIII4 (4 meaning 4.75") is what I have. Mine is from the early 80's but shoots great. Only gripe I have is when it's time for a through cleaning. I found one online in a few minutes for around $290. About $20 for magazines.
