His buying in pairs is OCD. I have it as well. I bought 2 new Ruger Mini 14;s, 2 new Ruger Mini 30;s, 2 new CZ Redhead Premier O/U shotguns, 2 new Stoeger Coach Guns, 2 new Rock River AR's, 2 new PSA AR;s and 2 new PSA AK-47;s. Who would have ever guessed I would have something in common with Links.

I traded about $30,000 worth of guns and $150,000 to boot for a 35 acre farm about 8 years ago. Guy wanted $180,000 for the property and I didn't have but $150,000. I didn't want to have to wait 4 to 6 weeks for a loan approval and pay a bunch of closing costs so I traded him my gun collection.

I am one who does not have a lot of trouble believing it. I just counted and I have 34 guns right now. About 2 thirds of them I bought new. I have shot 3 of them. I just like collecting them. I used to be a class 3 dealer back in the 80's and had dozens of machine guns. I played with so many full autos that I am no longer much interested in firing an ordinary firearm. On top of that there is no convenient place to shoot around here. Your situation may be different.

Pretty much what I expected. A total hit piece. Because Tennessee has a Republican Super Majority we are a bunch of racist and evil people who pose a major threat to democracy. What a crock!
Yep. Who could have seen that coming. LOL

Download GoVoteTn app. Gives you all the information.
And if you are over 60, you can print an application for a vote by mail ballot here.

Mailed my ballot in two weeks ago. Mail in voting is one of the few benefits of being over 60.

I like the idea of having two 500 pound Liberty or Cannons then hanging 4 or 5 $200 rifles on the wall. A thief would grab an armload of the cheap guns and run leaving the safes and better guns behind. He will almost always choose the easier option.

Great deal. Wish you were a bit closer to Knoxville and I would make you an offer on the pair.

Sometimes this being active doesn't work out. I am 73 and work outside regularly. I stay on a tractor or using a chain saw. Two weeks ago I was trying to cut a stump down close to the ground. I twisted my knee while getting down low to saw it and my knee has been hurting for two weeks now. If it ever stops hurting, I plan to start seriously slowing down.

66 B 88 B and one Billion how. does a nation that’s 36 Trillion in debt and is having to borrow money afford this They can’t. We should not even remotely consider this. Money would be better used for helping Americans. Roads. Hospitals. Housing for Americans Veterans Military and Law Enforcement. EMS.
The Democrats are looking at this long term. These 25 to 40 million illegals will eventually be able to vote. They already can in some elections, just not federal elections. AT LEAST NOT YET, Once they get to vote there will never be another Republican elected and the Democrats will have the Socialist government that they are working toward.

Been aware for years. Not going to happen in my lifetime but my sons are setup for it.
Like you, I used to think it would not happen in my lifetime. I could not have imagined how fast everything is escalating. Now I fear it will happen in my lifetime.

Your best bet is Lanbo's Armory online. I got a few not long ago. They were $25.42 each with no sales tax and flat rate $10 shipping.

I use a Desantis Thumbsnap Side Scabbard. Like you I prefer some type of retention strap. I also like a scabbard style as it holds the gun close to the body and keeps it from banging on everything while climbing on and off the tractor. Provides enough coverage to protect the gun and fairly reasonable price for a leather holster.

I don't think the question anymore is, Will things get bad? I think the question now is, When will things get bad?
We have half the world mad at us and Russia, with even more nuclear weapons than us, threatening us. Everyone thinks Russia would never attack us with nuclear weapons as that would lead to mutual destruction. The problem with that line of thinking is Putin is totally in charge. He is an old man with not a lot of life left to live. He is not winning the war and knows he will not as long as NATO backs Ukraine. If he does not win this war, he is done. What does he have to lose. Even if Russia doesn't we still have Iran and North Korea who would.
We have an election coming up and America has not been this divided since the civil war. The Democrats and the liberal media are trying every dirty trick in the books to stop Trump before the election even begins. They have tried impeachment, criminal charges, are are now trying to keep him off the ballot. I don't know if the election was stolen or not, but judging from the left's current behavior, I tend to think they are capable of it. And I can see where, if Trump loses, many will believe they did again.
We are $34 Trillion in debt. Two of our biggest debt holders, China and Japan are both concerned about our ability to repay this debt and are selling our debt instead of buying more. The social Security Trust Fund was investing their surplus funds into government bonds and now account for 3 trillion of the government debt. Social Security is no longer running a surplus and will be cashing in their debt to pay their monthly obligations rather than investing more. Less people are willing to buy our debt. This will drive up the interest rates we have to offer to get investors to buy. In order to hold rates down, the Federal Reserve will have to buy more of our debt. Problem is the Federal Reserve does not have the money. That means they will have to print trillions more dollars leading to hyper inflation.

Thanks, this is very important. Not too bad. I will have my wife get on this. She is really good with dealing with insurance companies.
Thank you for the lead!
I have to go to the Humphrey county anyway, so I guess I will check it all out.
I don’t expect to really make money on it. But much more of a hobby that pays for itself.
I think it was $35 per year to join the NRA Business Alliance. I got a million dollar liability policy and $50,000 theft coverage for $1,900 a year. ATF does not require this coverage to get an FFL. If I were doing it again, I would just form a corporation to protect my personal assets and forgo the insurance. They were really big at that time on zoning. You need to make sure you can get something in writing from your local zoning authority stating you can operate a business in your location.

This is priority number 1 and may make it cost prohibitive.
Yep. 10 years ago, I bought mine through the NRA Business Alliance. It was with Lloyds of London and was about $1,900.00 a year. It covered liability and theft.

I've been manufacturing my own ammo for a while, I have no problems with doing it. I have read recently that several of the big ammo manufacturers were sold to China. Thus I'm thinking of starting doing it for others. At the same time I am thinking of buying and selling used guns as an FFL to help fund the project. I have found where I might be able to get used guns but they only sell to FFLs.
Application process looks like it isn't that daunting. Form to fill out, background information on the owners (myself and wife), photos, and finger prints.
Has anyone been through the process? One thing it says is that they will verify that you're in compliance with the state and local laws, but they don't say where to find those. I don't think there would be anything I would be in violation of.
Any tips or suggestions? Would people be willing to buy ammo from a small time vendor if prices were comparable?
When I got an FFL 10 years ago, after I submitted the application an ATF inspector came by to interview me and inspect the premises. He went over all the rules with me to make sure I understood them. He then required me to get a letter from the city codes enforcement officer stating that I was zoned for business. I had a funeral home on one side and a motel on the other, and my building had been a real estate office when I bought it, but he still wanted documentation that I was zoned for business.

Also if one is not working correctly you have a spare to compare it with in order to find out what is different.
