In Nashville Man pulls gun after his order was messed up
Patton replied to vontar's topic in General Chat
There is some truth to this but those idiots fail to realize that less than half of them would be out of work within a week of a minimum wage increase. Then they wouldn't be able to afford to buy anything because all we would have done was create across the board inflation. This idiot, the one who pulled the gun, probably just steals everything he needs anyway so minimum wage amounts do not effect him. -
Cameras are pieces of hi-tech equipment that routinely fail, run dead on batteries, or fill up with memory. The big caveat here is that you must know when to turn them on since you can't run them all shift, and what started as a casual talk outside a gas station turned to this. Fortunately, it appears there is just enough clarity on the gas station camera to visualize the handgun.

No permit, and he has a criminal record. https://sci.ccc.nashville.gov/Search/NameSearchDetails/DEMETRI^JOHNSON^06291993^472581/ -
This was from another forum; I believe he just screwed a Pearce Extension under the Tamer grip.

Do you tumble/clean rifle brass again after sizing?
Patton replied to maroonandwhite's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I understand that you were specific to rifle cases and the need to retumble, but 9mm is about the easiest case to size because of the slight taper. With a rifle case, a lot may depend on the lube being used. Hornady One Shot will wipe right off the case and may not do an harm if dried on anyway. Some of the older paste types will dull a case if not wiped or washed off after resizing. -
This post has probably not received as many views as the ammo can deal because people have seen the officer shootings on the news. The news generally doesn't report ammo can deals.

Patton replied to maroonandwhite's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I would only if I was going to be using a liquid cleaner. I often dry tumble, resize, and then shake them up with water and citric acid before rinsing clean. -
There are many ways for a truck to end up over there. The one I heard of recently involved one of those "My shipping representative will pick it up at your house and you do not have to do anything". Also, years ago it was not uncommon for stolen vehicles to find a way out of the country because noone over there would care.

Yes, thank you Doc. I did a term paper on Puma concolor some time ago and still have an interest in them.
-
Exactly what I was getting ready to say.

I could not agree more with everything you said. A business that I worked for had the whole family of Ford trucks and a 2002 f-250 v-10 was the best of all of them. It was cheaper initially, cheaper to maintain, and cheaper to drive. In my experience air bags are about the only route worth going on leveling and stabilizing your ride. You maintain a soft ride while empty that way as well and it is not that much more difficult, if any to instal. I will say that if you are finding the need to increase spring weight on a halfton you need a bigger truck.

I am surprised that they have hung in there this long. I walked through the Northgate Sears a few days ago and I was surprised that there were not cobwebs across the isles. The clothing, footwear, and jewelry all looked like it had been there for years and was out of date. In fact my wife found the same dress priced at half the price at Belk compared to Sears. I don't think I could have found something to buy in Sears with someone else's money.

Dude, keep that 3" 624!

Finally Bought a Shield 9mm
Patton replied to glowdotGlock's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
I really wish that we had some 10 round magazines for the Shield. -
Finally Bought a Shield 9mm
Patton replied to glowdotGlock's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
I have not found an ammo that my Should could not handle. While they are hard to come by, the 147gr Rangers may have been it's favorite. After experimenting I have found the best carrying mag is the flush fitting 7 round with a Pearce Extension and the 8 rounder as a backup with the sleeve removed. I could see that sleeve shifting and causing an issue during an emergency reload. Plus, this way I have eight and eight if I can remember to count in an exchange of gunfire. My next purchase may be a set of Ameriglo Pro iDot N/S. I handled a Shield with them installed and I was impressed. -
The felon could still be prosecuted for themself using a firearm in self-defense though; felon in possession is a federal crime. However, that comes down to the ATF taking it to a federal prosecutor who takes it.

You really need a deadbolt in conjunction with that "entry lockset". They can still key bump a deadbolt, but it takes skills.
-
Eray is correct, but I know that you have no control over the inventory. I would just tell people that quality is hit or miss, but it is better than not having a firearm. Just encourage test firing of all firearms.

The 3" has a full-length ejector rod and is about like a g19/23 on the universal weapon scale. I have pocket carried the 65 a time or two but with different grips.
-
Don't bother with a 2.5"; the 3" are the creme de la creme.

Kahr's triggers are just different; they are not necessarily any better or any worst as far as the triggers go. I do not like some of the other aspects of the Kahr. My father has a 9mm PPS and the trigger is about the only thing similar to a Glock. I flirted with the idea of getting a PPS for a long time until the Shields came out and I no longer had te desire to own a PPS. I find the Shield's trigger kind of Kahr like and kind of Glock like, but better than both. The Shield also has less recoil than the PPS as far as my father and I can tell. They rounded the Shield in areas where the PPS should have been rounded and lowered the axis. I have shot a G42 and it a pretty good shooter. With it being slightly lighter than the Shield and slightly smaller, it recoils the same or a little less. I believe a Glock 9mm based of the 42, but the size of a Shield will shoot well. While I believe this to be true, I wouldn't believe just anything Lennie says.
-
Did they say where the M&P 9's came from since they didn't like them?
-
The grip looks like the same dimension as a G42 which would mean it is photoshopped. A 9x19 round is too long to fit in a G42 magwell and ejection port.
-
If someone wants to spend a few more dollars, but have the chance to see it first, Buds in Sevierville has them for $299. They looked pretty good, but I think I would have bought a nicer S&W 5906 for the same price next door.

I am quoting myself: "The M&P Shield is amazing".
