  1. Glad this went smoothly. There are several different outcomes of grabbing for someone's carry gun that come to mind and none of them turn out good. Officer or not I don't think it's wise to go grabbing for a loaded weapon during what appears to be a routine traffic stop.   If he had just robbed the Weigels or committed some crime he was really taking his time leaving, putting on gloves, getting things situated in his bag, etc. and none other other customers were alarmed or running around. From the video I fail to see any threatening behavior from the motorcycle rider and the tag thing seems like a joke.   Had this been an actual robbery by a motorcycle rider the robber would have been long gone by the time this officer even got his blue lights turned on.    Seems like the officer could have just pulled up and asked to see id and hcp before he even got on the bike instead of watching him the whole time and them pulling him over as he leaves. Just my 2 cents.
  2. I just found this; https://www.stagarms.com/20-5-56-heavy-barrel/
  3. This is what I used on my 20" rifle length build; http://www.gmriflebarrel.com/gm-m16-m16a2-5-56mm-20-barrel-with-extension-1-8-twist/
  4. Are you saying I'm popular?   Blount County covers a large area some of which is well over an hour drive from town. I just mentioned it cause that's where I live.
  5. Look in Blount County outside the city limits.
  6. Sent you a pm fivestring. Please add me on and you can pm me the secret handshake/ meeting info later.
  7. I just got on here; http://bc-go.com/ and registered. It still says "pending staff approval" if I try to login. I don't do facebook.   peejman, please put in a good word for me with your wife's friend's husband. I registered as McGarrett on there also.   Thanks for the info guys.
  8. Anybody know anything about BCGO forums? I have been seeing a lot of stickers on the back windows of cars and trucks around my area with BCGO on it.   They won't let you on their forum as a guest so i tried to register but is still says "pending staff approval" after 3 weeks. I guess I won't get to know the secret handshake.

  11. Here is my current edc knife setup;    fixed blade; http://www.theknifeconnection.net/esee-knives-izula-od-fixed-blade-neck-knife-with-skeletized-handle-green/   auto; http://www.bladeops.com/Boker-Kalashnikov-74-Auto-Knife-p/bokkals74.htm   my Kershaw pocket knife, could not find a link for it, just a simple lockback folder, it does most of the everyday tasks, opening boxes or whatever.     Gibbs Rule #9: "Never go anywhere without a knife."
  12. I got my Izula from The Knife Connection: http://www.theknifeconnection.net/izula/. I ordered the TKC scales for it as well.   I have been carrying every day since it arrived. Great knife.
  13. Here's some surplus paracord by the lb.; http://store.oldgrouch.biz/reusmipabypo.html
  14. Just saw this while reading about the recent kidnapping in Knoxville; http://wate.com/2015/04/29/east-knox-county-homeowner-shoots-intruder/   You can't let your guard down for a minute.
  15. Here you go; http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/86605-marlin-336cs-35-rem-lever-action-with-scope-40000/
  16. Black Hills Leather has a good selection of shoulder holsters; https://blackhillsleather.com/shoulder-holsters.html   I have the BH7D, horizontal but they also have a few vertical models. Not sure what you price range is but the quality and fit was excellent on mine from Black Hills. You send in your measurements and they custom build it for you.   The Galco Miami Classic and Jackass are good but they are horizontal. Check ebay for used ones.
  17. Looks like you got a deal.   I get emails from Old Grouch Surplus sometimes. They usually have deals on jerry cans also, new and used, http://store.oldgrouch.biz/mijeca.html   They have always been really good to deal with.
  18. Find him a good used stainless wheelgun in 38/357. I bought a used stainless Ruger GP100 DAO a few years ago, perfect truck gun. There are a lot of them out there that were Canadian Mounted Police trade ins.
  19. My 2nd rifle after the .22 was a Marlin 336 in 30-30, paid $200 for it but it's been many years ago. One of my favorites is my Marlin 1894C in .38/.357, paid a lot more for it. Everyone needs at least 1 lever action.
  20. Nice rifle. My son put together the 2 TGO builds we have.   We enjoy shooting them and getting the optics zeroed in. He has really learned alot doing the builds. Good times for sure.
  21. My system for IWB is to wear a wife beater t-shirt tucked in to keep something between me and the holster and my outer shirt untucked. I like to wear Carhartt or Dickies carpenter jeans that fit a little loose. I find it works good with my belt 1 notch bigger with IWB.   +1 on a good gun belt. I bought one of these belts from Simply Rugged in 1.75", http://www.simplyrugged.com/ecommerce/Real-Man-s-Gun-Belt-Single-Layer-of-Leather.cfm?item_id=171&parent=670 to go along with one of their Silver Dollar pancake holsters for my Ruger SP101 IWB and it carries comfortably. I also use it with other IWB and OWB holsters that I have. They also offer a double layer belt.   For my Glocks I have been liking the Glock sport holster; http://www.amazon.com/Glock-Combat-Holster-for-Glocks/dp/B00IK3XQ4G/ref=pd_sbs_sg_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=0FHVTJD1ZZM127F6VY49   Good luck in your quest for the right holster.
