  1. A driver who attacked a Florida sheriff's deputy Monday morning was shot and killed by a bystander who warned him to stop beating the officer, according to a report. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/11/15/passerby-shoots-kills-motorist-assaulting-deputy-after-traffic-stop.html
  2. Good for you. Salt water fishing is a blast. Make sure you don't become acquainted with the business end of those Barracuda!
  3. I always shake my head when an iconic brand puts their name of a piece of crap.
  4. They want S&W to be one of their brands. They'll have other products under different names. Rest assured, the guns will be S&W. I would think they'll put of S&W brand on everything where it makes sense - what a powerful brand.
  5. I would be surprised if they can do this legally in the state of TN. My best guess is that if something happen and they fired your for failing to notify them that one of the 2A groups would happily sue them.
  6. I early voted this past Thursday - was in and out in 5 minutes.
  7. I'm good with their marketing campaign. After all, it looks like the Sig Legion campaign worked well. Also, if someone is in the market, you can always count on Springfield's great customer service.
  8. I got a post card from the NRA. They are endorsing Steve Glover for the TN House, 60th District. They went on to say that the incumbent is not a strong supporter of the 2nd Amendment.
  9. Well, the important question for many TGO'ers, myself included, is whether any of the women on their SAINT team are into balding, older, overweight white men.
  10. Heck, you can't blame them for the marketing. I saw the same from Sig for the Legion and thought it would fall flat, but it worked. Same thing for claiming they've been making them since 1794. The way of the world is that when someone buys the rights to a name they advertise having been in business since the original date. I didn't know they have a line they don't make. Which one is that?
  11. I can't find anything about the guns - seems they are being tight lipped. When I said I was a big fan, I meant a big fan of the 1911s and M1. I hate to say it, though I think S&W and Glock have better striker fired pistols.
  12. I'm a huge Springfield Armory fan and just got an email announcing their new line of firearms. The marketing is pretty cool as well. Here's a link: https://www.defendyourlegacy.com/
  13. Yeah, the one listed here. It's in like new shape and I enjoyed having coffee with the former owner.
  14. No one is making you stay in the US. If you think there is somewhere better then head out and don't let the door hit you on the way out. That is really you only option unless you are doing more to make change than comment on an online forum.
  15. My thinking would be that they would take it if you mark it up like the pic in the original post.
  16. Omega really hit the nail on the head. We live in a broken world. Our government, for all its flaws, is still one of the best.
  17. I take it that you had an interesting shower. Oh well, now you know.
  18. I hate to say it, but 'Idiocracy' seems to be our new form of government.
  19. If Minnesota wasn't so far, I would have to whip up a batch of these as they are accepting them for their gun buy back program: Here's a link to the story: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/08/29/minnesota-gun-buyback-program-dud-some-legal-owners-say.html
  20. Glock seems to be the whipping boy in the gun world and I used to be one of the main critics. I've really come around from being a critic. I don't own one and probably won't get one as I've committed to the S&W M&P line. Having said that, the Glock is the weapon of choice for an awful lot of folks that put themselves in harms way for a living. Glock picks a few things to focus on, like reliability, and that's all they focus on. Someone commented on changing the grip angle. I agree that the John Brownings grip angle is best for me. Having said that, Glock is Austrian. Austria is very German like. The Glock has the angle that the luger had. I'm guessing that they take that as a point of national pride and don't look to see that change. At the end of the day, I don't think Glock fans should ever have to defend their weapon of choice. It simply performs too well for its intended purpose.
  21. Glock deserves loyal customers and there are many on this forum. Nice to see a new gun from them.
