  1.   The rentals during my recent HCP class were all .22lr handguns most were Rugar Mx's with their long barrels.   Thanks Robert
  2.   Judging by Monday people in this area have no idea how to drive in the white stuff.   Thanks Robert
  3.   Mine just showed up today.  So I did my fingerprints on 12/28/2015 and got my permit on 1/21/2016 better then Utah did when I got my Utah permit.
  4.   The best place to clean house is in the primary where you can kick them to the curb and not risk getting an even worse POS in office.   Thanks Robert
  5. Welcome from the Cleveland area.
  6. http://www.theshootersdepot.com/class-schedule/   That is where I took my training.   Thanks Robert
  7.   How can they enforce it.  They don't know what you paid for the gun to be shipped to the store.  They can only charge you on the transfer fee and that is all they know about.  The buyer is supposed to save all the receipts on stuff you bought out of state and at the end of the year you are suppose to add them all up and send a check to the state of TN covering your sales and use taxes.  The state of TN can't go after out of state sellers because of the Commerce Clause.  Their only choose would be to go after individual residents for failure to pay sales and use taxes.  At this point no state has decided to go after a large number of it citizen for failure to pay sales and use taxes.  I wouldn't be surprised to find out a few people have been but it is more likely because they bough a big ticket item and attempted to avoid sales and use taxes but I bet it is very rear thing.   Thanks Robert
  8.   The Walter has a spring the push the firing pin back into position between firing.  As long as that spring is in good shape my FTF were almost none existent.  But once that spring loses it shape YOU WILL SEE FTF.  The fix of curse is to replace that spring.  Also other have reported that slimming down the firing pin to make it move smother will also help.  Personally I loved the gun.  It shot the dirtiest crappiest ammo I could get my hands on and worked fine.  Had a decent trigger pull and I was getting pretty decent grouping out of the gun even with that crappy ammo.   Thanks Robert
  9.    I had the same problem with my P22.  I picked it up used from around $200.  I fixed it by lubing the hell out of the firing pin.  After 10 months and 6000 to 7000 rounds though the gun that no long worked I needed to replace the firing pin spring.  The problem was for the life of my I couldn't get the 1 pin out of the gun to replace the spring.  I ended up selling the gun for $150 to a gun buy back.  I wouldn't have any problem buying another P22 it was a nice guy overall one of my favorite guns to shot I have ever owned.   Thanks Robert
  10.   Lots of places all over the state.  I would avoid Memphis as all reports suggest it is a hell hole.  With the exception of the Nashville area any where outside of the major city's you should be able to find land and at decent prices way lower costs than in MA.  I was able to get a 2400+ sq ft house on 1 ache near Chattanooga for 115k with no restrictions and a yearly tax bill under $600.  You can find housing with 5+ ache outside of Nashville in the 200k to 300k range the cost will be higher the closer you get to the city of Brentwood.  From people in the Nashville area I have been told to avoid the area's north of Nashville because of high crime.  I would personally avoid west of the city as it is controlled by Liberals.  When I was tiring to narrow down where to move I was looking at a place with over 50 ache that was prices right under 200k but it was over an hour outside of Nashville.  In the end I choose to move to Chattanooga as the area was nicer and I could get a place 30 min out for far less then a place an hour outside of Nashville would have cost me.   Thanks Robert
  11.   AT&T sent us a message over a year ago notify us of the cut off and in Canada they have already cut off there 2G network.  TMobile doesn't have a date yet on 2G hardware that is going away.  I still have some SMS gateways that don't have 3G modem available yet connected to phone switches that we had to switch over to tmobile as we know AT&T service was going away.   Thanks Robert
  12.   I use Smile to support the Second Amendment Foundation.  I get to help 2A issues well spending a good amount of my income at  amazon.  Now if they only had a way to do that at Walmart then SAF would be funded enough to go head to head with Bloomburg :)   Thanks Robert
  13.   I have only been to the DMV in Cleveland TN and I would rate them very high.  4.7 out of 5.  They worked hard to keep things moving and get to people in under 30 min.  There was a question using my Military Birth Registration and if it was ok to act as proof of citizenship and they went to the site manager and they accepted it.  My mother has trouble standing and they had someone grab a chair so she could site down and do her paperwork.  The only reason I didn't give them a 5 out of 5 is one of the people I worked with was pretty grumpy.   Thanks Robert
  14.   Still hasn't shown up :( .  Waiting this seems to take forever.   Thanks Robert
  15. I am new the area and wondering if it is worth going to there show on Jan 16/17th?   Thanks Robert    
  16. According to there website I have been approved and they are sending mine.  The website says 10 Business Days from this point.  So I should have it in the next new weeks.  Yah :)   Thanks Robert
  17.   It took me 4 days after I moved down here to switch out my Maryland Drivers license but I wanted it done before the end of June so I could clam half my Year in TN and not have to claim my full year in MD they have taxes only someone from NJ or NY could be happy about.
  18.   I am feeling the same way.  Lets hope they decide to make a version A with some tweaks in the backend of the gun.  Also I am looking for something I can Conceal Carry for my next purchase.  I love my Glock 19 but I haven't been able to find a holster that I can wear comfortably.   Thanks Robert 
  19.   My assumption is the Big O will make a speech and sign an EO that will require the ATF to change it policy it might take 90 days for the change but the Big O will be there for another year to make sure his EO is complete before the next President takes office.  The next President will have a lot of Pressure to leave it in place or they will claim he is gutting gun regulations even if the regulation haven't even taken effect yet.  If we get someone like McCain in office then it will stand as no one will fix what Obama broke.  Just look at how the regulation dealing with FFL were never fixed under Bush after Clinton changed them.   Thanks Robert   PS Maybe we will be able to get someone who actually cares about guns into the White House and he really does guts all the crap that Clinton and Obama has put into place and role us back to the days when getting an FFL really only took a few hundred bucks and a background check.
  20.   Who makes the call if your intention is for livelihood or liquidating a personal firearm collection?  The ATF?  An EO is a directive from the President to change how you interpret regulations.  He can make the EO then they will update the CFR to fall under the new directives.   Thanks Robert 
  21.   What he can do is play with the grey area's.  Like when you sell your personal firearm there is a grey area.  The law doesn't define any metrics to decide if you are a dealer or a private seller.  So the ATF has had to set internal metrics to decide if you are individual selling your personal weapons or a dealer selling weapons you never intended to keep.  From what I a reading many people expect Obama will redefine those metrics in such a way that most person to person sales will require you to be a dealer or that you go through a dealer.  That is within his power and an EO that likely won't get overturned by the courts.  Clinton did something similar when he killed off a large number of FFL by settings new standards you had to meet to become an FFL.   Thanks Robert
  22.   Welcome to TN.  As a fellow transplant from a lonny blue state welcome I have found most TN are really friendly and welcoming just never make the mistake of saying "That isn't how we do it at XXXXX".  Remember you are moving down here to improve your life not turn it into the hell hole you left behind.   Thanks Robert
  23.   Really wish there was a way to like something twice :)
  24.   When you say Producers some people will only think of the Top 1% to 5% of people and forgot about the large group of people who still pay taxes in this country.   Thanks Robert
  25.   I just did the DMV and finger printing today for my permit.  They took my picture using the same cameria you use for taking Driver License pictures.
