  1. Thank you Royal Range!! I look forward to coming out to shoot!!
  2. Hello, I have a Judge 45 Colt/410. Trying to save time and eliminate ranges. I'm looking for a TGO member approved middle Tennessee/Nashville area indoor range that is ok with 000 buckshot/pellets being shot at paper targets at 10-15 yards? Some 410 handgun ammo has discs and lead pellets. Don't want to practice at a range that TGO members know that does not allow. Thanks for any feedback.
  3. There may be hope! Bifocal shooting glasses! SSP Eyewear
  4. Hi Everyone,    Here's what going on and I appreciate any feedback.  I'm in my early 50's.   I'm having a couple of issues that have been creeping up on me.     Issue #1 - Vision As most folks my age, my up close vision is going.  Distance vision is fine.  What is happening is the Rear/Front sight alignment on my handgun is "fuzzy".  I can see the front dot, but the rear sight is lost.   It's hampering my enjoyment of showing my daughter's fiance how to put 7 in the middle of the target.  What can I do to improve my shooting?   Issue #2 - Shaking Hands After about 30 rounds or so, my right hand starts getting the shakes.  If I lean against a post, no problem.  I just can free hand shoot because my dern right hand (dominant) hand is shaking.  Also, it feels like my wrist starts to burn like a carpal tunnel thing.   Am I just getting weak and old??  Anyone else experience this?     Any and all feedback is appreciated!!   DH
  5. good review.  I have a heater head like the top image.  I take it duck hunting.  I'd like something a little more powerful but one that I can fit into a blind bag or backpack.  I'll take a look at the buddy heater.   
  6. I read the thread and want to make sure I understand.  Let's say I order from Buds online I pay for the gun plus insurance and have it sent to a local "preferred" FFL dealer for $25 or $35 plus the $10 TN background.  Wouldn't the local FFL in TN collect the TN sales tax?     Update: Looked up a FFL in TN.  They only collect the transfer fee plus $10, no tax.  Answered my own question.  
  7. Wow! Just heard about this on Fox news just moments ago. I said NOOOOOOO!! G&L is my store!! Hope you guys recover quickly.
  8. Lebanon Gun Shop (David Wilson's shop) is next to Burger King, not across from Lowes.
  9. Thanks. I wish that store the best; however, I'll have to seriously consider if I'll ever visit them now based on principle. I favor supporting establishments that truly believe in and recognize our 2nd amendment rights regardless of the excuse or reason. It's definitely not a good way to build relationships and long term sales. We have other choices in Lebanon like the Armory and David's Lebanon Gun Shop.
  10. Just to be clear I understand - An individual with a valid TN Handgun Carry Permit is not allowed to have their weapon loaded and on their person if entering the new Lebanon Shooting range and store? If you're bringing a weapon in a case or range bag to the firing range or to trade at the counter, that weapon needs to be unloaded prior to walking in the door. I can understand a rule banning loaded weapons in a case. I'm double verifying that HCP holders are not welcome to have their loaded weapons on their person, concealed or not. Thanks.
  11. Haslam has a new TV ad with a "regular" guy that makes two points, Haslam is 100% pro 2nd amendment among other things. I don't buy it. If he joined up with Bloomberg to begin with, he's got issues.
  12. Agree! Nikki did a great job of laying out the basics! Randy Rayburn should be happy camper because he can post his property. . . why would he care what anyone else does? I wonder if he and his bartenders are responsible for destroying more families than any permit holder ever will. . . he serves alcohol to people who drive on the roadways that could kill anyone of us. It would be nice to know how many times he's been sued for serving alcohol because they drank in his bar and went out and killed someone or damaged property. Drink responsibly right Randy?
  13. I sent all of them on the House Finance, Ways, and Means Budget Sub-Committee an email asking for their support of the bill. Only Donna Rowland responded to me. She supports the bill.
  14. done! Also posted the link on another board I frequent.
  15. I know of an individual who is going to work for the Haslam campaign that confirmed this. This individual is an HCP holder and feels Haslam may have a problem with 2nd amendment rights and gun restrictions. Haslam should be crossed off the list fast.
  16. I don't have a prob shutting down the drinking at midnight. I also don't have a problem with bars having to be accountable for their status under the law and report food sales. Curry has a point on multiple levels. Let's be honest, drunk drivers kill more people, cause more property damage, and permenantly ruin more lives than our guns could ever do. Why is alcohol and bars the sacred cow? I support Curry and I say lets take it to 'em.
  17. I've been in there too. I picked up a few minor things. It's good to at least have a nice shop or two in town now. There is another shop across town in a small strip mall in front of Lowes.
  18. Excellent observations! Agree with Sam's Dad on all points!!
  19. My exact thoughts. We live 15 minutes from there and pass it by all the time. . .intentionally.
  20. When TWRA considered changing some of the fishing regulations last year, I called my local TWRA commisioner to expressed my concerns and recommendations. They love hearing from us and they do consider our feedback. I think the TWRA does a great job given what they have to work with and the politics involved. They have my support. Anytime I've ever been checked, they've been very polite. I've never considered them anti-sportsman in any way.
  21. Those things jump up and scatter in all different directions in the blink of an eye. Focus on one moving away from you in a straight line and let 'em have it. If you watch more than one, they'll be gone before you can draw a bead. Maybe you can drop at least two. Even if you have a dog pointing, when they jump up to fly, it can startle you from the noise of their wings. They are so delicious!! Beautiful birds too. Have a great time.
  22. Youtube vid on firearm ownership in Switzerland. The subject describes why they have them.
  23. Bo has a great class! (got my HCP through Bo's class) Also, he occasionally offers a follow-up defensive pistol class that I recommend as well.
