    TCA 39-17-1307 Make carrying club misdemeanor. TCA 39-17-1308 is the defenses which list what has been already mentioned. 

    I carried one for several years only really used it to get something that fell under a patrol car or break windows. I always just went to hard hand/ strikes same level. Carrying oc spray doesn't require any cert if I recall and that will make most people not having a mental issue or drug issue eyes clamp down and they typically aren't as aggressive physically anymore. 

    When I got certified for ASP, it did not require recert. BUT, when getting cert for OC Spray, once a year, you had to get sprayed. Their logic is they want you to know what it feels like. My response was and still is, I'll never forget the barfing, burning and such. Don't know if it's a local/state requirement for OC cert. But getting hit with a baton to me is also hard to forget unless you are drugged or just numb... lol... 😉
    Still got my orig night stick and asp baton.

     

  2. Prayers! Getting old does suck. Had whole hip replacement, (I also go through TOA), my left should is shot and takes no effort to dislocate. Pain limits movement. Had all the usual tests and he reports bad arthritis and I need full shoulder replacement. 

    Hip recovery was a piece of cake. I literally walked out of my wheelchair after surgery. 

    Recovery for the shoulder won't be that easy. Then knees, ugh. 

    Told him to put me in a medically induced coma for a few weeks and replace the whole kitten-kaboodle in one shot.
    I'm tired of surgery.

    It's like every year I get one or 2...

    Keep us updated if you can.

    I'm glad he's gone. But I fear his replacement will be his own hand picked crony and nothing will change. 🤬

    If they have learned anything, he was a freeloader that took, took and took. 

    I'd be more willing to donate again if they learn how to run the shop properly. I refuse to believe they didn't feel the pinch of lack of donations over the past years. If not, there are better entities.

    BHunted...sorry for your troubles brother. That's all pretty rough timing, but glad you are safe.

    Worst to happen to us was the 2010 flood her in Nashville. Won't bore you with all the details, but the damage list included 2 vehicles(Totalled by Insurance),  HVAC system, and mold remediation under the house.

    Not something I ever want to go thru again. Wouldn't wish it omy enemies!

    Thanks!
    I lived in a flood zone up north years ago for over 60 years. You're correct... Not fun...

  5. They'll replace my UPS but I have to send back the blown one. As for equipment:
    Likewise, warranty claims are excluded,
    - if the sticker with the serial number has been removed from the device,
    - if the device has been damaged or destroyed by the influence of force majeure or by environmental factors (moisture, lightning, dust, etc.),
    - if the device has been stored or operated under conditions outside the technical specifications,
    - if the damage has been caused by improper handling, in particular by non-observance of the system description and the operating instructions,
    - if the device has mechanical damage of any kind.

  6. The house could have prob if it weren't raining. The smoldering came from a light fixture.
    Two separate claims. One for auto, the other for home.
    Everything has been submitted to the claim adjusters. Got to wait on them. Not sure how the coverage will work with contents. Think they are prorated which sux. My one Sony Bravia 65" was about $3.5K.... Laptop too. was about $3.2K.........
    I think they go by how old it is and what life it would have left. I call bs on that one. It's not wear and tear. A new one would not survive no more than an older one. 

    I can say this about computer data. By all means! Backup your data off site. We use Carbonite and it saved my bacon several times. Got me a new bottle of Jack just in case the news is not good. But I really need a new laptop. I'm working 0ff a Surface Pro right now and imho is not rigged for heavy use.  Ugh

  7. Whelp, rather have no power than go through what we are going through. Weds morn at 0341 hours, I thought we were under attack. Was raining and thunder/lightening for a few days already. The crack of lightening sent me flying out of a deep sleep. Not uncommon but figured it would pass so I reset the lights etc.  That didn't happen.

    Partial electric. No internet, no tv, no ac, no nothing. I spent hours troubleshooting everything. Nothing came back. Yea, we had electric but didn't make a difference.

    Started out calling Xfinity. They found blown lines in the underground across the street. It took out 2 of our flat screens. Once Xfinity was online, we could access the net with our iphones. Big whoop. Put me over my data and the charged me 15 bux.

    Then called electrician. Before he got here, I reset 6 breakers, and 4 gfci outlets. Still missing power in the garage.
    I replaced the gfci and got all power back on. Its going to cost about $2400 outside of inspection. HVAC blew a zone card, $500

    It blew our landscape lights, fried my laptop which was connected to a brand new 1500VA UPS. So much for Surge Protection and Backup.

    At 1700 hours I was still trying to get things worked out. My wife decided to walk the property line. She said we got hit! Took pictures. Took out a Ring Spotlight cam, traveled up the facia almost to the peak of the roof and came out of a hole that looked like a 12g shotgun slug as fired from inside and left everything smoldering. We never knew it because we were too busy trying to get people out here. Luckily the rain put out the small fire that fried the camera. I sleep 20ft from where the hit was. So far, we are up to over $10K in damages and that don't count repairs. Will find out Monday what Farmers Ins will cover. 

    Now the clencher., I have a brand-new 2023 Ford Explorer ST. Always sits in the driveway, (nowhere near the strike.).
    I wanted to just go for a short drive to clear my head. Barely got it started with multiple warnings on the screen. Would barely move. So somehow the lightning strike fried the modules in the car computer.  Had to get it flat bedded to the dealer. Lord knows when they will get to it because they are backed up. Luckily got my wife's Edge for a backup.

    So no power? Blah. Take that any day., Haven't slept since Weds because my stomach is in knots.

  8. People are looking to push buttons. Unless you are like those lawyers that came outside with an AR and his wife alongside him holding a handgun like a limp dick, you're prob ok. 

    With open carry, people, because of all the anti-gun propaganda and woosies from non-carry state, there may be some problems. I know around here most people can care less. Even the cops really don't care.
    Closest thing I can think of as brandishing would be lifting up your shirt to purposely to expose it OR if you wear it exposed, (3 sides visible, open  carry, etc.), pulling a Barney Fife and resting your hand on the grip. Otherwise, it depends on the situation... IMHO of course.

    Thanks all, I try to get over there at least every other month to stay somewhat sharp but not always easy with 2 kids. Luckily they've taken interest in shooting so we can occasionally get some family time in.

    You got this all set up in Hendersonville? Wow

    Just for clarification, this is a Police Sharp Shooter, correct?  I know Remington made a 700 PSS and now makes a Remington 700 SPS, which is not as good as the older PSS models.

    Also, any idea as to round count, accuracy, preferred bullet weight/ammo types?  I have one of these but possibly need another one for rentals at a range where we run courses for clients, hence all the questions.

    And lastly, what scope do you have on that?  I have a 4-16x40 Trijicon on mine but always wanted to get another Leupold Mk 4 3.5-10 MIL-DOT.

    I had the original 700 bull barrel Police Sniper Package. Gave it to my boy as a welcome home gift from Okinawa... Great rifle and really miss it.. Ugh

  11. The whole idea is bs other than to keep your loved ones from playing with it.

    Bad guys have plenty access to just about any gun. Why would they try to steal these? 
    It would take decades to remove illegal or legal guns from the planet. They will continue to get illegal / regular guns and NOT steal these.

    Ridiculous.

    Now if you cold make one like our beloved Dredd, with all the bells and whistles, that's a different story. lol
