  1. That is not a surprise. I know for a fact he has several well trained PSD schooled MP's that are on AGR orders serving as on his PSD team. I worked with a guy that was on his team for a couple of years.

    Dollywood

    I try to make at least one visit a year to Lake Winniepasauka. You just can't beat the value and the short lines. There is no need to sneak in food because picnic baskets are welcome, or you can leave and return. If you want to eat there the food is good and cheap. I recommend a fried turkey and fries. My first and last ride on every trip is the Philadelphia Toboggan Company Carousel, # 39. Manufactured in 1916, #39 is what they called a four abreast jumper. It is really a beautiful and rare piece with 68 hand painted steeds and the original working 1900's German Ruth Band Organ.
  3. I decided that I would go down to GT's to look at the M&P's and found a magnificent deal. Apparently an agency bought M&P 9mm's and decided they didn't like them. I got one that looked brand new with 3 magazines and night sights for about $430 OTD. It feels great and I will gets one range time on it tomorrow.
  4. The only other quick tip I know is by pouring sour milk into the drains.
  5. I will never be without a Glock 23 again. Sorry, that I can not be of help.
  6. I cannot honestly think of anything good to say about a 6.0l Diesel after having one in the family. My father had one and it spent more time in the shop than on the road. We got rid of an awesome Dodge diesel to get the sorry p.o.s. too.
  7. There are probably just as many instances of the other calibers kabooming as there is the .40's. The 9's and .357's can have poor neck tension on the case's design leading to bullet setback. I would say most of the .40's cases have to do with overly stressed brass that has been reloaded too many times and pushed to too high of pressure. Combine that with a week supported chamber from the early .40 models and you get a blown out case.
  8. Nice piece! Other than the serial number on the butt and te model number 940, the other numbers do not mean much. You can contact Roy Jinks, s&w's historian and get a complete build date and history of the gun for $50. That piece is well deserving of the letter and adds to it's immense value.
  9. I think that it is properly called the slide stop. There are some guns that you would have to have monstrous muscles to release the slide with your thumb like a S&W M&P Shield. Sling shoting the slide is a much preferred method because it is a gross motor skill over a fine motor skill.
  10. Unless you work nightshirt; that was a long 13.5 hours last night.
  11. Overall I believe that it was a good movie. I didn't find it anymore fictional than anything else coming out of Hollywood. The idea that some intelligent, skilled investigator would just be a wonderer is not believable but then again it is. While I have I have met some douchbag MP's in and out of the service, I have also met some that I thought were stellar folks. You have to realize that if they get an identifier they are probably the top 3% of their MOS. Two of the guys I worked with in the past were civilian police officers/troopers who were also in reserves who went active duty to go CID. Some of the inaccuracies like a West Point graduate being an investigator were sour but it is what it is.
  12. Her insurance company should handle it entirely for her. The have lawyers on retainer just for dealing with these types of issues.
  13. You can not go wrong with a Glock 22 because it has to be the most common 40 caliber made. I would say it is pretty close to the most popular glock in the US also.
  14. Being a former employee of Papa Johns, I can say this idea was thought up by his crisis management team. John Schnatter is money driven and was wanting the easiest way to handle damage control. Paying $7000 for a funeral is probably an easy way to do it. I am not saying he is a bad guy but he is greedy. There was a policy on firearms and it was supposed to be immediate termination, but he has a team of armed executive protection officers at his half billion dollar castle. One of my old bosses got to attend a party at his place. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6-eB_o7gqyU
  15. Those little 2" light weights hurt! There is a reason they are for sale all the time and shot so littl.
  16. My Glock 19 was perfect for about the first 100 rounds and then... I had an armor replace parts but it really didn't help.

    New Ruger LC9s

    I found out about the Ruger LC9S a few weeks after buying my Shield. My first thought was just my luck. I have had some issues with guns over the last few years not really working right but the Shield has been great. After shooting a LC9S that my friend bought I realized I made the right choice. The Shield is more durable feeling, has more magazine options, has a better finish, better trigger, recoils less, and is a whole lot more accurate. The Shield is also cheaper and comes with an extra magazine. I found that my Shield is a better shooter than the G19 I sold to buy the Shield. You would be a fool to pick the LC9s over the Shield.
  18. My girlfriend, who is a paralegal, has stated that he may have bankrupted a corporation and is living the high life on someone's pension. Records show he filed a lot of civil cases, real estate trust, wills, and trust funds. Very possible, an attorney is an attorney, they may specialize but they often have a second, third, or fourth area interest.
  19. And then you can make hunting 9mm ammo your full time hobby like I do!
  20. TCA 40-7-103 c Unless a law enforcement officer has probable cause to believe that an offense has been committed, no officer, except members of the Tennessee highway patrol acting pursuant to § 4-7-104, shall have the authority to stop a motor vehicle for the sole purpose of examining or checking the license of the driver of the vehicle. I am actually shocked by this, they can just stop you to check a license? Patton, did that guy give up on his case solely do to a small fine or sentence? It sounds like he had a strong case since he wasn't even arrested by THP. http://caselaw.findlaw.com/tn-supreme-court/1126395.html
  21. I don't have the funds but supposedly the last couple of gun shows a guy had a bunch of LE trade in G22 for $325.
  22. I was told in a college course that an exception is with THP, since they issue DLs they can supposedly ask for them. https://www.tn.gov/safety/thp/checkpoints.shtml
