Still a restraunt and if not posted why go somewhere else?

If you need a better grip you might try the P07. It is very slim, think Hi-Power, but also short like a G19. I like mine a lot better than the G19's I've had. i also think it is slimmer than the Rami and considerably lighter overall.

Not arguing against it. Just saying legal is different than a companies policies. Companies have policies all the time that are not necessarily legal. Some of this is due to differences in state laws. If the parent company is righting policy in California you can beat there will be conflicts in Tennessee. Unless you have the resources to legal fight the policy it's probably a better avenue to fight for policy change through the legislature. On the other hand I am all for a companies right to do what they want (within the law). You don't have to work there and they shouldn't have to keep you or hire you if they don't want. I think there are too many work laws as there are. Some are good but most just cost the employees and customers too much. It used to be a privilege to work and people took pride in what they did. Now all a lot of them seem to do is moan and groan about what they don't have while doing a half ass job as it is.

Very nice. It appears K&D did not close. Their website is back active. Kevin does nice work.

HR literature is not law and by law they have to post. Now if there are contracts involved it becomes a whole other issue as well.

Maybe an hour. Most of that was being careful to not grind too much etc. If I were to do it again, which I will as soon as $ is more available, i think I could get the basic conversion done in 30 minutes or less.

Saw that one too. the good thing about Kel-Tec is that if it isn't right the will make it so. Very good customer service.

Excellent guns. They are not AK's as the internal are all different and not interchangeable. The lower is milled and it has fewer parts than the AK. An excellent updated AK if you will. They started at $800+ but they have since come way down. Darkstar has one and he really like it. I will be getting one as soon as the list of "gotta haves" gets whittled down.

Good stuff. I have it in PDF if anyone wants a copy. Just PM me.

I'll take it back for evaluation...... Might take a few years.

Not really. I've done two. Did it all with a Dremel. The first one was a 7.62x39 and it was harder cause the DIY isn't available for it. The 12 is very simple with the DIY. Once the old trigger guard is removed there is no cutting, welding, or fitting. Very simple.

http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?showtopic=40886 Explains it all with pictures. Nah, you don't need help. It is really easy. I would go here Tromix Do-It-Yourself Saiga 12 Trigger Guard - $45.00 : Mississippi Auto Arms, Inc ::, Your Source for Saiga, AK47, AR15, Tromix, Glock, and SKS firearms and accessories and get the DIY trigger guard deal and a trigger group. Then all you do is drill out/cut the rivets off the old one stick the new stuff on and your done. Here's some links and you can search for more. http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/search.php?searchid=839181 http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/long-guns/20616-saiga-conversion.html

there is a "light" review in the current Rifleman issue and they gave it good remarks. IIRC the negatives I saw from the Hero Gear shoot a while back was a heavish trigger. Typical of bullpup designs.

Again I highly recommend going to Walkers Lumber and Hardware. They been around forever and are a top notch contractor supply company. They know all of the contractors in the area and if they say they are good then they are solid. BTW it is owned by Bob Harwell. If that last name rings some bells.

IN that case what will cost a lot of money is making a lot of changes. If you can lock into your design and materials early on you can save a bunch. Walker Lumber and Hardware here in Nashville can also help save you a lot of money and get you a lot better products. DO NOT use Home Depot or Lowes!

Codes is what will cost both time and money. They DO NOT like home owners doing it themselves. If you have a contractor or architect who can help navigate you through that issue it's not all that hard and can save you money. Codes is like the IRS, no matter how well you obey what's written there is always something they can get you on. I've been working on a little 300 sq. ft addition and this has cost me an additional $2000 ($5000 budget) and 2 months. Nothing we did wrong just the process.

While remote not entirely impossible. I had a Federal HST 9mm +p squib where there was no powder in the case. This was new stuff and the last thing I would have thought would happen. Had that been in a defensive shooting scenario, I would have probably ended up with a blown up gun and hand etc damage. That being said it is just one of the possible "what ifs" I have accepted. While remote, it could happen. Of course, I could also ricochet a bullet off of a car, the sidewalk, a stop sign, and then strike a great-grandmother of 20 sitting on her porch - but those are risk I've accepted as well.

Nice! Sadly that is a fairly good deal these days. My first handgun was a FEG PJK-9HP and it was a very nice pistol. It kindaq ruined me from DA pistols though. I've since owned a .40 HP, an FN SFS .40 - back when CDNN had them for $429 (just last year too)! Fantastic guns every one.

If that's true then what happens when the sucker heats up just from shooting?!

Yes and Yes. Stoeger is owned by Benelli. They did buy Berretta's manufactoring dies and machines and moved it all from Italy to Turkey. Essentially it is exactly the same as the Berretta made on the same machines just in a different location.

I hate that. At least he texted you instead of letting you show up and wait for no one! It happens. Ask me how I know.

So what'd you get? If it were me I would definitely get the XDm. Better handling (at least for me) and I like it's features a LOT better.

From what i hear you can't go wrong with the USP, but if you are looking for a gun that your not paying a few hundred dollars just for a name on it, try the FN FNP9/.40 or the CZ P07. They also come in a SA versions as well. I have had the FNP and it is a fantastic gun. I currently have the P07 and it is near perfect for my criteria. It replaced the G19's, Walther P99, 226, and every other gun I've tried.

For a minute I thought we were going into some Bertrand Russell dialogue. Anyway my .02, I have been a Pastor for the last 12 years and one thing I have found is that most can't define spiritual or religious. Depending on how they define those terms shapes the conversation. Here's mine. I believe we are all spiritual in the sense that we have a spirit that is searching for purpose and relevance to our existence. I also believe we are all religious in the the sense that we ALL subscribe to some governing form of living. Even those who claim neutrality are not. It is inherently impossible. That being said, I simply try to follow my savior and Lord Jesus Christ and his Word to us. If I am wrong, I am no worse off than any other "religion" or belief system when I die and while I live I am constantly challenged to do better. However, if "they" are wrong and Christ is right, then they are lost. I, as some others here, have degree's in theology, History, Philosophy, etc. and they ultimately mean nothing. It is much simpler than some elitist knowledge (think Pharasees). I believe as the Bible says that we all have the Word/truth written on our hearts. If we are honest and follow that script it will lead us where we need to be. Another thing I've learned is that arguments lead nowhere. All I can say is what I know and what I know is that Jesus was born of virgin, lived a perfect life, died for our sins, and rose again on the third day. Romans 10:9 " If you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."

What about the other business you use these roads to access? Are they off limits as well even though they have not individually posted? Does this mean you can't have a gun while driving to and from these places?
