6.8 eh? Good luck feeding it. I haven't seen any ammo that I would call affordable for it. Any reloading components I've seen are high too. Get a Hero Gear AR-15 and be done with it!

Don't worry, Glocks don't magically discharge like some people would have you believe. Keep your bugger hook off the trigger and you'll be safe. Make sure you get a good holster that covers the trigger guard completely. Also, none of my holsters have a retention strap.

I'm pretty sure you can shoot someone in Texas to keep them from running away with your property. Try that in TN and you'll be going to a PMITA prison.

If we're still short on attendees, we could probably get some interest by posting on ARFCOM in the hometown forums.

Palmetto State Armory usually has pretty good prices on ammo and mags. You should check your barrel and make sure it's marked 5.56 before you try any M193 or M855 (mil-spec) ammo. Of course you can probably pick up ammo and mags at Hero Gear too, they're just a bit too far from Nashville for me. I did visit their shop, good people and lots of selection.

Sounds interesting, and we have ample opportunity in Memphis to test this training.

I like how my XDm 9 feels. Mild recoil and 19 rounds of 9mm, can't go wrong! I haven't bought a holster or any defensive ammo for it yet, though.

I'm 6' 250lbs. My 5" 1911 conceals just fine. It's easier to conceal than my Glock 23. The Glock would be great if it wasn't shaped like a brick. The rear of the slide has a tendency to print, a sharp square poking through my t-shirt.

Nice! Where do you hunt coyote around here? I've heard them howling, never seen one in person.

Sounds good to me. 2010 seems like plenty of time to stock up on ammo.

The in downtown Nashville one sucks anyway. I didn't notice a sign on their door when I walked past it last week. I'd rather walk the extra distance to the Flying Saucer for wings anyway. Surprisingly they're not posted (yet...)
