Mr Archie, you know all the right people. Maybe TFA could light a fire under the Attorney General to put a quick end to this stupidity? Memphis needs a good smack upside the head now and then. Besides it would save time and money by foregoing the inevitable law suits. Frankly, if this should make onto the ballot, I'm not so sure it would pass. The citizens of Memphis are fed up with crime. I don't think they'll go for anything that further restricts their ability to protect themselves.

I'm sure there is another name thread somewhere. I'm sure I posted to that one. But since we're here now, why not? When my sons were growing up I spent 12 years as a Boy Scout Leader. During that time I took an advanced leader course called Wood Badge. There I was assigned to the Fox Patrol. My hair went completely gray in my 30s. Its a family trait. It took my fellow Scouters all of about 30 seconds to dub me the "Gray Fox". The nickname just sorta stuck. When I first registered here, it told me that name was already taken. So I just tacked on my birth year 1954.

Its all show. Trying to convince voters that they're trying to do something about crime. They know very well it'll never fly. But they get that good old victim outrage when it gets publicly shot down. IIRC they tried something along these same lines a couple of years ago and the State Attorney General set 'em straight real quick. I hope he repeats that.

Yeah, but how many years did it take? Six was it? Vance is a strong 2nd supporter. Hopefully he'll keep Trump in line.

Your photography looks very good. Pics are clean, crisp and show details really well. You do good work. As for the gun, well, I'm the wrong guy to ask. I favor revolvers and 1911s. To me, this is just another piece of plastic. But we gots lots of plastic lovers here. I'm sure they'll be along shortly.

The shooting happened a couple of miles north of there in what appears to be a residential area. I haven't been able to find any more info on it. I'm guessing it was a domestic dispute that got out of hand, but no one died. The news seems to have completely lost interest.

Even Stevie Wonder saw that coming.

Congress gets to shoot their mouths off for the TV cameras, Cheatle will be sacrificed as the scape goat and then the whole incident will quietly fade out of the news cycle. Meanwhile, the truth and any actual facts will be buried away while internet conspiracy theorist argue how many shooters, where the shots came from, etc and so on for the next 50 years. And in the end, nothing will change. Basically, just another standard government cover up.

HP expansion in .32 Long is pretty much non-existent. Just ain't enough velocity for reliable expansion. The load we settled on was the Mag-Tech 98gr SJHP. Good velocity, very accurate and decent penetration for a .32 Long.

I've told the story many times about my wife's arthritis in her hands. She finally settled on a 2" S&W Model 30 in .32 S&W Long. She could shoot it very well and the recoil didn't hurt her hands. If you were to buy something in .327 Fed Magnum, she could shoot .32 S&W Long, .32 H&R Magnum or .327 Federal Magnum all out of the same gun. She could try the various cartridges and settle on whichever one she could shoot and handle the best. I really think that .32s are highly under rated.

Technically, the shooting happened in Memphis. The guy ended up in Bartlett looking for help. But I'm also fairly familiar with the area where he was shot. A bit run down, but not dangerous that I know of. I'm surprised. I'm guessing the victim is OK and all is well. If he were dead it would be all over the news.

What little I could find says the victim was shot near Raliegh-LaGrange Rd and Sycamore View. Then drove north about a mile to the Kroger store in Bartlett seeking help. Bartlett PD found him there. No other info at this time.

That's my neighborhood. I didn't watch the late news. Post more if you get info.

Make me an offer.
