26 U.S. Code§ 5845.Definitions (b)Machinegun The term “machinegun” means any weapon which shoots, is designed to shoot, or can be readily restored to shoot, automatically more than one shot, without manual reloading, by a single function of the trigger. The term shall also include the frame or receiver of any such weapon, any part designed and intended solely and exclusively, or combination of parts designed and intended, for use in converting a weapon into a machinegun, and any combination of parts from which a machinegun can be assembled if such parts are in the possession or under the control of a person. I’m still waiting for an explanation on how a bump stock meets this definition. Even the ATF ruling (made at the specific direction of the president) didn’t say how, just that it did.

“Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.” H. L. Mencken

I don’t see any way that it stands. SCOTUS has made it clear multiple times that police have no legal duty to act to protect citizens from harm. Peterson absolutely failed his moral duty to protect those kids, but he had no legal duty to act.

Yeah, the HPA is dead as a doornail. We might think it died when the Dems took the house but that’s not true. It was never really alive in the first place.

In the wake of the reports that the VA Beach shooter used a suppressor on one of the guns, Pres. Trump was asked if he thought they should be restricted and his response was “I don’t like them at all.” Remember what happened the last time he took a negative view of a firearm accessory? We got the bumpstock ban. https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2019/06/luis-valdes/are-suppressors-next-trump-i-dont-like-them-at-all/

Pelosi is actually the adult in the room this time. She knows that it will hand 2020 to Trump. I don’t think the party is going to give her a choice.

It’s like the alcoholic Disneyland.

Totally changes what the P in +P stands for! I guess if the shot placement doesn’t get them, the secondary infection will.

Shocker.

The Beatles channel (18) on SiriusXM is doing a “Magical History Tour” playing every song recorded by them in chronological order.

Accurate.

I think the best course of action would be to go directly to the TNDOS office that administers the HCP program. https://www.tn.gov/safety/handgunmain.html On this page you will find the phone number for Lisa Knight. She heads up the HCP program. Back when permits used to take forever and a day to process, many of us on this board spoke to her and found her exceedingly friendly and helpful. If anyone can provide you the correct answers you need, it would be the woman in charge of the folks who will be handling the paperwork for your reinstatement.

Best line in that whole movie.

If you want terrible acting, check out the remake. The original is perfect.

Powers Boothe the actor died a few years back. This post is about Lt. Col Andrew Tanner. (So, yes. It was a joke. You know how threads here migrate in topic.)

Here’s a separate link to a document dump containing jpeg scans of a host of internal docs. ftp://67.190.79.35/sda1/nra2019documents1-clean/ WLP has to go now if the NRA is to survive and continue the work.

We need like an Executive Order telling cops - “No shooting from a moving vehicle. I don’t care how cool Starsky & Hutch looked.”

Bingo!

“Using GPS instead of maps is the most consequential exchange of technologies in history. Maps can’t be hacked. GPS can be. We’ll pay for this one day” This is actually a really well written and thought provoking essay. As someone who double checks his GPS with an atlas and maps several times a week, one which is near and dear to my heart. https://www.salon.com/2019/05/04/using-gps-instead-of-maps-is-the-most-consequential-exchange-of-technologies-in-history/

There’s no incremental gains here. It’s a bad bill that will result in a net loss for folks who carry in and out of the state. All for some politicians to be able to make a claim of being pro-2A while not having the desire nor the balls to actually put forth and advance actual pro-2A legislation.

That’s actually where my wife and I did our permit classes. It’s not a bad range. It’s location out on Lamar is the thing that hurts it most, but the staff were always professional and friendly.
