    Glocks?

    Now go to glockstore.com and blow a grand tricking it out.
  2. Mason hooked me up. Thanks again for the 411.

    Glocks?

    If you don't dig the grip on the Glocks, try an XD (I have both and like them for different reasons.)

    Glocks?

    The difference between the models you listed are caliber and size. The 19 is a 9mm. The 22 is a full sized .40 S&W. The 23 is a compact version of the 22. Buy a Gen 3 and save a few bucks. Tons of accessories for the Gen 3 can be had for discount prices now that Gen 4 is on the scene.
  5. Thanks for the recommendation. I'll stop by Monday.
  6. Anybody in Memphis area wanna do an installation?
  7. Unfortunately, the nearest public rifle range is 2 hours east of here (Natchez Trace State Park) and that's only a 100 yard range. MSSA is a private club on the northeast side of town. I've heard it's nice, but pricey.
  8. I will be there in my fat man tacticool gear, sweating, wheezing, and lovin' it!
  9. There is a Hampton Inn just up the road.
  10. I've been pulled over twice by local PD while armed with no issues. I keep my HCP right behind my DL so that when I pull the DL out to hand it over, they see the HCP very clearly. Both times they asked if I was armed, and asked where the weapon was located. I told them and that was the end of it. The traffic stop continued normally. I recommend you be as truthful and forthcoming as possible. As an officer approaching a stranger, I'd like to know that he/she takes the first opportunity to inform me of a weapon. Officers I've known don't really like surprises involving weapons.
  11. I grew up around Memphis as the son of a gun dealer. I've been shooting most of my life, and am similarly frustrated by the lack of public ranges for carbine training. That said, when time allows, I'll trek over to Natchez Trace State Park (2 hour drive) for a public outdoor range. If you're ever up for a trip, we'll get our carbine fix together, along with anyone else willing to meet up. Welcome aboard!
  12. If you want to hunt with an AR, you don't have to go up to an AR-10. You could go with an AR-15 in 6.8 SPC and get a dedicated .22 upper.
  13. How do you like the Magpul grip?
  14. Welcome aboard! Whereabouts are you in the state?
  15. I know that these have been well reviewed, but I'd love to hear the opinion of someone who's owned one or knows someone who has. Any gripes or concerns? I'm helping someone with their first black rifle purchase and I don't want to steer 'em wrong.
  16. Looking for input from anyone who has personal experience with POF rifles. They look sexy as hell with that nickel coating, but they're pricy. I'm curious to know how the coating holds up over time. Please share your thoughts. FYI: POF-USA Patriot Ordnance Factory, Inc.
  17. For $650, you can get a Springfield XDM .45. Think about it. http://thetruthaboutguns.com/2010/11/patrick-carrube/gun-review-springfield-armory-xdm-45/
  18. Ditto for my wife's first time. She was shooting my 9mm subcompact XD. Might have been a little too snappy for her. Miraculously, a year later she asked me to buy her a gun for Christmas. I bought her a Bersa Thunder .380 and she immediately loved it. She hasn't put a single round through it, but it's "so cute." I heard her on the phone with a girlfriend bragging about her new "James Bond gun." Strangely, she has still shown no interest in shooting it. I don't get it; just a woman thing, I guess.
  19. Perhaps we should try to setup some TGO debates so that any member who wants could prepare and express their arguments on the CC/OC issue and perhaps invite a representative of law enforcement. Maybe a state legislator could attend and witness/participate. I think that a face to face debate would probably result in more productive discourse than forum flaming.
  20. I have a Springfield XD 9mm SC in my nightstand. The wife has a Bersa Thunder .380 in her nightstand. I keep a Charles Daly tactical 12 gauge pump in the closet. My M-4 lives in the office. Finally, if I'm defending the house from the roof against tangos over 100 yards away, I've got the Browning A-Bolt II in .300 WIN MAG. Saving up for a tear gas grenade launcher.
  21. Season runs through the end of the month in Alabama!
