Could you please go into some detail about your comment, specifically about the "this" and about the "it?" This stuff is confusing enough already.......thanks

So where, oh where, was the NRA on this one?

You'll really be surprised what a .380 is capable of with the new Federal .380 ACP Hydra-Shok Deep ammo! In ballistic gelatin it not only expands to about 1.4 times its original diameter but also penetrates to 13 inches, exceeding the FBI's minimum penetration standard (the first and only .380 ammo to ever do so.) This is a game changer. An in-depth review can be found here: SHOT Show: A review of Federal’s Hydra-Shok Deep ammo (police1.com) This great ammo is now available in .380, .38+P, 9mm, and .45. LEOs have been gobbling it up but it's gradually getting easier to find.

Hey fellas, regarding system from Amazon, in my experience Amazon order history is retained until manually removed, so if you didn't do that, just look back at your order history on the website to see exactly what you got.

I think we all fear and would hate the ATF's disrespect of our 2A rights about what you said, but have any TGO frequent flyers actually had a "visit?"

I have both the LCP Max and the Ruger Max 9. FWIW, I think they're both absolutely terrific. I'll be selling some other guns on here soon, since I don't see their continuing need in terms of concealability, now that I have these options. And also in terms of effective firepower. If you haven't looked into Federal's Hydra-Shok Deep ammo, and what's been tested and written about it, please take a look!. Not just the basic Hydra-Shok, but the Deep. The FBI and other LE agencies soaked up this ammo for quite a while but now you can get it. It's revolutionary. A Federal HSD out of a .380 is actually respectable and immpressive. Terrific in the 9mm. Crazy in .45. Take a look. Merry Christmas to all!

Thank you, BersaGuy, and right back at ya! Hope you're doin' well!

Looks like just a pre-sale to scare the chickens out. There are no signs of real capitulation. The folks are just whining. Wait until they are crying, and for a while at that.

To Mods: Please take these automatic warning messages down. This seller has 38 positive accolades, and these warnings are distracting and probably hurting our collective commerce, especially when they are the FIRST thing everyone sees when we see a post of something for sale. You're overdoing it. I sent a message to Todd suggesting that the warning should appear at the sign-in level. We don't need to be beaten up at every level downstream. Q

I don't care what color or sex (or claimed sex) anyone is. If a person has talent, and a body of work in art, sports, and all other professions, they should be honored and saluted for it, period. That said, Salute to Nichelle!

And, by his own admission, he has NEVER OWNED A FIREARM! Thanks, Joe! And thanks to some weenie Republican votes.

Great format for your presentation of info & pics! GLWS!

If I had to do only one (and you say I do!) I'd go with the .357 5-shot, which can defend you against anything in our region, e.g. bears. One extra round out of a .38 won't do you any good in that scenario because you won't get that many rounds off anyway, and if by chance you did, you're shredded meat.

Congrats on your escape from insanity, and welcome to Tennessee!

Welcome aboard, Kyle!

He's not smart enough to play Bingo. And he and his handlers can't game that system. Bring on the Bingo!

You have described some of this as "dangerous junk." With that having been said, I would recommend you make some documented disclosure of the risk to whoever gets this, ideally signed by them, or photo evidence of same, or send to the bottom of the lake.

God can do anything, and does. Adding my prayers along with you.....Amen!

Yeah, somebody made a boo-boo. They transposed a "6" for a "5" on the 30 yr rate on April 19th. Very unusual for bankrate.com -- they are usually spot-on with everything they do. Must've been either an old guy or a newbie!

Erik, I don't know where you're finding that 6.75% 30 yr rate. That would imply a rock--bottom credit score, and I seriously doubt you're there! Average TN 30 yr fixed rate as of today is 4.7% to 5.3% depending on various factors. Google these terms "average 30 year mortgage rate today tennessee" and you will see a multitude of loans in that range.

It is true that for the vast majority of investors the best chance for long term success is the classic buy and hold. That is, and always has been, an absolute winner over very long term time frames. The reason why the vast majority can't trade short term is because they trade on greed, excitement, fear, and panic. Emotions have no room in intelligent investing, which is as cool and calm as a shooter in a 1000 yard competition. Been trading for 45 years. Lost a lot, but won more. You cannot go into a trade thinking -- "Oh my god I hope this goes up!" or "Come on, don't let this sucker dip down now!" There is NO ROOM FOR EMOTION. If you can lose the emotional element, and can just be analytical and objective, you're on a good start. If you are experienced enough to have emotions of ice, and good analytical skills, game on! If you can't do these things, (and you probably can't and shouldn't,) then go buy a mutual fund or index ETF and hang on. And when the SHTF, back up the truck and load up like crazy. But that's probably when you'll sell.......oh yikes

You CAN do that for a living, if you're reliable at it. Let me know what you're doing, I'll do the opposite X4, I'll send you back your original investment + 20%, and you win, but I win more. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! (Obviously serious disclaimers apply here. This post is for entertainment value only!)

Chuck, you have absolutely nailed it.
