Not an issue in Tennessee. As long as the person is legally eligible to own a handgun you should be good to go.

Laser or red dot for old eyes the need reading glasses
TNman207 replied to loadedp3at's topic in Handguns
Lasers at night are great for telling the enemy exactly where you are. I suggest night sights or a new red dot sight. -
Decided to buy a Glock 20SF 10mm pistol because of price and reputation. I sold it after one trip to the range. The recoil was brutal. Invested in a Sig P220 Hunter 6" 10mm. Totally different felt recoil and now I enjoy shooting the beast, whenever I can find ammo at a reasonable price.

Really bad reviews. I have a Walther P-22 and a Walther PPQ-22. Both are very reliable but my favorite is the PPQ.

The S&W. A snub nose 357 would be more than I could shoot accurately.

I always asked the buyer to have their FFL dealer email me a copy of the license for my files. It is also best to include with the shipment if you are using Fed-ex.

Across from Fed-x hub, off Elm Hill Pike.

Stock up on .17 cent ammo. Prices are going up and becoming hard to get. I can usually find some deals on https://ammoseek.com/ but you have to pay attention to the ending time and the shipping cost.

Depends on your purpose for having one. Target, competition, carry , etc.? I owned a Cajunized RAMI and loved it. Great ergonomics and very accurate. A bit chunky for conceal carry and became a safe queen. Sold it and bought a Sig P226 SAO Legion for competition. It's my favorite 9mm. Good luck.

Any new range options around Franklin?
TNman207 replied to Swang's topic in Competitive Shooting Sports
The only outdoor range I shot in that area was at the Strategic Edge in Chapel Hill. Not sure if that's too far but a real nice range to visit. -
My last three purchases were a P226 Legion, CZ 97 BD 45, and a Sig P320 X-Fullsize.

I'm not an attorney but here's my opinion on unregistered pistols. Any sale or trade in TN should be documented by the gun owners for their own protection. I am not aware of a law that requires handgun owners in TN dealing with TN residents having to register their handgun with any TN law enforcement agency. That said, if the unthinkable would ever happen you will need to prove you obtained the firearm legally. A lot of folks have a polymer-80 build-a-Glock pistols. If there is not already, there will soon be a requirement to serialize and register the pistol since it did not pass through an FFL dealer.

No. That is why I ask for a copy of their license before shipping. I ship using Fed-x. -

TNman207 replied to Steelharp's topic in General Chat
They have done so in the past with no hesitation. A copy of the license will be included in the shipment, as well as for my files. -
Intro to USPSA class in middle TN ?
TNman207 replied to stealthgoat's topic in Competitive Shooting Sports
The one I think is top notch and shoots regularly is Strategic Edge in Chapel Hill. I know it's a bit of a drive but I really liked the range and the professional manner with which matches were run. Most matches would have 30 - 50 shooters of all ages (12-80) and experience. Typically, the large group was split up into 3 groups trying to pair experience. From the first time novice to Masters, shooting was a lot of fun. Everyone was willing to share tips and information. Matches usually ran from 8:30 AM til about noon. -
The problem I have found with most sub-compact handguns is that the grips are too small for my hands. Especially in the grip length. I also owned a G-43 and it was difficult to get a quick draw and get a fast purchase because of its size. The P365 and P938 gave me similar issues. For me, the G-43X is a good fit, as well as, the XDS Mod 2 45 acp with the extended grip. Wish you the best on your hunt.

Dittio what RED333 said.

I attempted to install the Powder River Precision Spring (PRP) Kit for my XDS Mod 2 in 45 ACP. I had completed the same instal on the original XDS 45 with no problem. That was a few years ago so I tried to follow the videos put out by both PPR and Galloway Precision. Unfortunately, the Mod 2 version is different in one key aspect that was not mentioned in the tutorials. There is no extractor pin so as soon as you release the pressure on the extractor safety plunger the extractor just falls out. I found this out while trying to find the extractor pin and discovered the extractor had already fallen out on the workbench. I thought I broke something. I did call PRP for advice. They acknowledged the Mod 2 installation was different regarding how the extractor and extractor springs were installed. The extractor actually installs the same way as a Glock. My tip is this; if you plan to upgrade the springs on your XDS Mod 2 you need to watch how the extractor is removed and installed on a Glock.
