  1. I took some training at Rangemaster before I became a LEO and found it to be very good.
  2. Seez52 I would think that if you mounted your knucks to a board or plaque that it wouldnt be a problem. The problem would be if you left the house with them in your pocket or vehicle.
  3. Is your gun 9mm, 40, or .357sig? If you look on the front sight you should see a number, post what number the front sight is and that will let us know if it is the proper sight. Sig makes 2 or 3 (not sure) different front sights. I just checked my wifes 239 (40). It and my 229 (40) have #8 sights. My nines have an 8 also. .45 has a 6. Not sure on the .357 sig as I don't have a dedicated .357 sig pistol, just a conversion barrel. Hope this helps.
  4. Bellshire is out of them. Back ordered. Hero Gear had a new and used one at the Expo, unsure if they sold them or not.
  5. There is a good thread about the hiring process over in the TN section of officer.com. I have some friends that work or have worked at metro. Pay is good, room for advancement, specialized units (k9, detective, flex, etc.), also no shortage of "work" I would try and do a ride along. If metro doesn't do them, try any of the surrounding counties/cities from Nashville. This would be the best way to see if you are really going to enjoy the job or not. Good luck.
  6. I had a 220 carry elite awhile ago. It had the SRT trigger which I found to be excellent. I did not much care for the beavertail and I would not have adjustable sights on a carry pistol. I have a P229, just a plane jane model and would not trade it. Sorry to muddy the waters for you, but the SRT trigger is a big improvement over the standard DA/SA sig trigger.
  7. Well I had some correspondence with the guys at Bellshire Hardware today. They said there is not a 4" tactical version of this gun. I guess the one I held was the compact 3.5". Anyone ever seen a 4" or Commander Style RIA Tactical?
  8. I didn't see the Rock Island guns on there. I know there made by Armscore but cant find anything on the Rock Island Tactical in 4"
  9. I got a chance to hold a Rock Island Tactical today, I believe it had a 4" barrel. I did some searching and can not find a webpage for them. Does anyone know the website for the company so I can see all of the different specs and variations?

    ak-47?

    I have a SAR-1. I like it and it does everything I need it to do. Arsenal is good Krebs is really good Also might check out Arizona Response, they are nice. Get on warrior talk and read read read up on em..
  11. Well I didn't come home with anything that went BANG, but did buy a "tactical" christmas stocking...................Complete with MOLLE!!!!!! I am not dissappointed in the show, it was as advertised. No beef jerky, indian crafts, or other junk. All in all it was a good starting point. What I would like to see are more individuals with tables and thier used guns for sale. I don't buy very many new guns. Hero Gear had a nice setup and a good special going on for the show. They had a good selection, representative of thier shop. I would go if it was offered again. It was about a 1.5 hour drive one way for me.
  12. $450 is about what I have seen them selling for with no accessories.
  13. Let me start by saying that I have never shot a Garand. That being said I have had both an M1A (Federal Ordinance with all USGI parts) and DPMS LR308 at the same time. The DPMS was more accurate and fit my needs better so I kept it. If you get one make sure to get the C-Products mags, I had a lot of problems with the DPMS mags.
  14. Well I didn't get any pictures from thanksgiving, but I cooked a pork loin marinated in Spicy Brown Mustard and Tequila and stuffed with apples. I was too busy eating it to take a pic, will try to get one next time I smoke something.
  15. Check out white oak precision. The take the RRA trigger and imporve on it. Very smooth.

    Can't decide

    I voted other. S&W MP9c. If you are not fancy on them then the Glock 26 or XD9 SC. I wouldn't pick the Walther due to limited magazine capacity.
  17. The big green egg is not 1500. I got mine for under 600 with nest at Ted's in Columbia. I have tried alot of smokers and have not found one that can do a better job then the BGE.
  18. I like Mika's holsters, check them out.
  19. I have shot the XD9 a little, really liked it. XD has a good reputation, I don't think you could go wrong with it for a carry piece.
  20. You might try Denny Elliott at Sniper Pro Shop. He is around Dickson I think and does lots of cool things with kydex.
  21. My wife did the same thing with my G26, I ended up with a new (to me) Sig. Out of the two 1911's you have listed, I would vote for the NIB Colt Defender over the used Kimber.
