I often dont like books someone else writes in the authors name, but these are all good!
-
Reading Dale Browns latest novel, just got through with a light reading of a book about Andrew Jackson and the Battle of New Orleans.

Hipower, I truly sympathize with you...You must feel rotten about that. I suppose, even though I dont want to, I could come and haul off some of those AR mags for you. Just to help you out, you know. No need to thank me, I'm just a good guy looking to help a brother out!
-
Well, sh**! Who DOESNT have at least this many guns? I mean before the boating accident where all my guns got lost...
-
Im a big believer in many mags.

First one id been to in a few years. Kinda miss the big ones in Nashville. Didn't see much i wanted. Did find the holster I wanted though...

Welcome

Im going on Saturday too, I think. I need to find one of those el cheapo nylon holsters with the magazine carrier in front to fit my P-365. I use those for around the house off body carry, i.e. on my bedside or lamp tables...to both protect my gun and keep a extra mag handy as well, when im not carrying on person. The one im using now doesnt fit very well.

I might...where is it this time?
-
I want one in 20 gauge. I have a no stock, piston grip only mossberg 500 persuader in 12ga and don’t like the felt recoil with it. Only drawback to those smaller shockwave styles is the reduced number capacity. If I can find one to trade something for I might just do it.

I read about this issue after I’d fired several hundred rounds on two different occasions. Mine ran flawlessly, and unfortunately, I didn’t know to check my brass after. I will next time, but I’m pretty confident so far.

Printing Doesn't Matter - Until It Does
Defender replied to TGO David's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
I have that same medical condition! To overcome it, I use a good stiff belt and a pair of good suspenders. I wear these over my T-shirt but under my outside shirt unless Im wearing a tucked in shirt and a jacket. Not optimum, but I’ve found I can carry without printing. This works very well with a small subcompact like the Sig P-365. -
As someone who has carried a loaded M-16 for work for many years in a variety of environments and terrain, I certainly understand the problem. Carrying with a round in the chamber but on safe does pose some dangers when crawling or in the woods or whatever. Accidental discharges can happen that way even if you keep your finger off of the trigger. Its not like a pistol where the weapon stays safely holstered until needed. The rifle is carried and slung and put down, etc, repeatedly. It requires constant checking of the safety. So I see the point of this. So I guess it depends on the situation. It does seem like a faster way to chamber a round but the negatives of this device to me seem to outweigh the positives.

Im think this might be the gun to ease my wife into the sport with. Took her shooting the other day and the only gun she shot that she liked was a .22, due to the light recoil. Micro ,380s, 9mms and 45acps she didnt like. This might be the ticket if felt recoil is light enough for her...
-
Anyone shot this yet or know much about it?
-
I want out, but the prices of houses these days is a big inhibitor.

I don t share the opinion of many that growth is a great thing...Ive been coming to Nashville all my life, being a Tennesseean, and have been living in this area full time since I retired form the military in 93. It wasnt the same Nashville when I moved to this area in 93, but it sure was a dang site better than it is now. I dont see one positive thing all this growth has done for the area. I see only bad things. People move here form all over and bring their own ideas and they dont seem to mesh well with many of us, but there numbers seem to rule. The recent Mayoral race was a case in point. Almost everyone one I knew didnt like or plan to vote for Briley, yet he won...lowest voter turn out in ages. Anyway, back to Ikea. I see no loss here, but that area will continue to grow and our infrastructure sim ply wont support it.

Springfield Armory Cuts Dick’s Off Completely
Defender replied to Ronald_55's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Just had to comment...the title of this thread sure is funny! -
I have the model that came with the Insight laser. I had issues with it form the beginning. The battery would drain really quick. Sent it back to S&W the first time and not sure what they did besides replace the batteries. Sent it off again a few weeks ago after readiung on a web site that they would replace the entire laser with a Crimson Trace model at no cost. Contact their customker service and confirmed that, removed the laser form the gun and mailed it back. Got a new CT model in the ,ail about 3-4 weeks later. Drop in installation and it seems fine.

Although Im retired from the military and have a retired ID card, I went ahead and got the VA ID card just in case. It took about 2 month and was free and painless. You have to upload a picture and your dd214 after filling out the online app. They will email you status each step of the way.

Welcome. This is a great site for knowledge, finding/selling guns and gear, and friendship.
-
Plus prices seem way too high as well.

Wonder if they would say which batch, other than waiting to see if mine breaks,..
