for-sale Gun and Ammo Safes for sale--Knoxville/Alcoa area
chemprof posted a topic in Gear Classifieds
SOLD Have a Cannon Capitol 64-gun Safe and a Mesa Executive Fire Safe (all shelves) that I use for ammo storage. Both have the usual door pouches on the inside. Both have a keypad combination lock. Both have been located inside the house for 2 years and then in the garage for 5 years on top of 0.25" plywood and a dehumidifier running in the garage during hotter months. Both are Like New condition. A couple of shelves in the Mesa safe are slightly bowed in the middle, even though extra supports were used (ammo is heavy, right?), and there's one small surface chip on the right edge. All the shelves are fabric covered. Below are vendor links with all their specs, and can send more pics upon request. Interiors look as new as the websites show. Asking $500 for each or $800 for both. Buyer MUST be able to pickup and transport them yourself. Cannon Capitol 64-Gun Safe Mesa Executive Fire Safe (used for ammo) Prefer cash or cashier's check, but if not, will do PayPal, Venmo, etc. -

Welcome! From what part of OH did you escape? I made mine from Columbus ~10 years ago.

I, too, would be leery about the lack of trigger coverage. I know you weren't asking for suggestions, but would you want to look at these alternatives? I've used both, probably the Galco more. Not quick draws, but it means I'll carry front/back as opposed to leaving them at home. Others may chime in with even better alternatives as well? http://pocketholsters.com/index.html http://www.midwayusa.com/product/594922/galco-pocket-protector-holster-ambidextrous-kimber-solo-carry-leather-brown Cheers!

Any of 'em--all good! Huge DITTO to William Johnstone's work, and nephew(?) J. A. Johnstone, Ralph Cotton, Ralph Compton. I, too, devour these like popcorn. I'm incredibly impressed to hear of Varmint's suggestion for "The Frontiersman"! It's prob been 20 years since I read that and it was wonderful! Since my wife is a Librarian, I'll also suggest heading to your nearest branch and they'll give you more suggestions than you can hope to read! Good reading!

Prayed like you have never prayed before

Will definitely keep her and your whole family in my thoughts and prayers right away! Take care. -
I concur with OS. Carried my LCP for a year before getting the PM9 and loving it. I still carry the LCP from time to time, but the PM9 finds its way to my holster much quicker. I live fairly close to CCA, so PM me if you'd like to try it or have your wife try it. Been needing an excuse to stop working so many hours and practice some.

Welcome, and thank you for your service! MTSU?
-
I'm down (voted) for a pair.
-
Great choice--carried mine all last summer under just a T-shirt and in shorts.
-
Just got into kayaking last Fall--I'm in for that as well! (at least flat, calmer waters, that is....not up to whitewater stuff just yet--ha!)
-
Try this. I only have the basic channels so I have to use this to catch it. Project Free TV :: Justified
-
Man, I'm getting excited about trying to join in on one of these trips! I'll subscribe to make sure I don't miss out!
-
Sad to hear about your loss. Yes, doesn't matter what kind of pet, it was an important part of your life and a companion, and that hurts deep. Take care.
-
Welcome! That makes one bio prof and one chem prof! There are probably others here as well!
-
Welcome! Yeah for working on getting the permit, too!
-
So very sorry to hear of your recent loss--it's hard anytime, but especially at Christmas. Memories that bring a smile to your face will surely return in time. My Dad and uncles were all hunters, some avid, some casual, but I was too young, and by the time I was old enough, they were either all gone or had lost interest in firearms. I have always felt a gap b/c I had anticipated being able to "...go one day when I'm bigger, right?" Alas, I then found a renewed interest when a friend and former Marine took my wife and I to the range one day near Murfreesboro--can't remember where it was. The flame was ignited, but was in grad school and had no money. Nearly ten years later, am still a newby but have caught the bug for sure. Just hate it when the wife asks me how many guns I'm up to now....uh, uh, uh, uh.......
-
Have been exactly where you are right now--off to vet now! The best I can describe it, is that you WILL know when it's time to let go, and as others have said, you do, b/c it's not for you, it's for him. And he'll let you know that it's okay to let go when it's time. Best of luck for a recovery, and if not, plenty of folks here to lean on.

Perhaps any carriers on here could verify some info I "heard." I was told second-hand that there is a "No Firing" policy with the management level within USPS. Is this true?
-
Be safe. "See" ya' if you get some net time, or when you get back home!

This is probably the last year for my niece and nephew. They will surely figure it out, if they haven't already and just aren't saying. And it makes me sad--as others have already stated, there are harsh realities in life and this is just one thing that is magical for the little ones--why take that away from them? We weren't traumatized or had to go to therapy, or called Mom and Dad liars. We understood and why when they told us "officially." Some of my fondest memories, though, aren't of mine, but of those of my uncle playing Santa to my cousins, he and some who are now gone, way too young. Those are special memories that now bind the family together even more at Christmas. Our families still "...kept the Christ of Christmas" (sic) and didn't allow the commercialization to overpower that message of love and giving. Have a heart and lighten up, right? We're only kids once, right? Your decision, I know, but since you asked....
-
Have the 745 pro. Very nice. Only six rds but they never fail--have tried all kinds of different ammo as well and it's all good. Hope your deal can work out and you get what you want.
-
I've got the 145's little brother, PT745. Just 6 but goes bang every time with many different loads, and comfy in the right holster. I would like to have some of the other ones mentioned, though! Ah, sadly, no cash right now....
