    Gone Crazy

    You may very well be crazy but its not because of the Glock! Congrats and welcome to the fold!
  4. I chose the Taurus TCP over the Ruger LCP at first cause I didn't care for the LCP trigger but then fell in love with the SIG P238. I've never looked back, it's my EDC with a custom pocket holster I had made by a local Leather craftsman in Wilson Co.
  5. I got a SR9c back in April and I really love this gun! I've never had a single problem with it and have never had a FTE - FTF, it simply eats everything with no problems. I like the ambidextrious features since I'm a lefty and its a very decent CCW as well. I have a Don Hume holster for a Glock 27 that works perfectly for it as well.
  6. Depending on my attire: Either a PF9 (inside coat or a Sig P238 in pocket holster) Go to the range usually every week or two usually fifty rounds each thru all my guns. NEVER have repaired magazines. Glock 32 Glock 27 Kimber Crimson Trace Sig P238 Keltec PF9 Ruger SR9c
  7. I have both guns, the PF9 is an easier carry and a nice gun. The Glock 27 is tried and true and a more dependable gun. Push come to shove, I'd choose the Glock.
  8. I've purchased from David, He is knowledgeable, courteous, friendly and has made quite an investment to offer yet another alternative to all of us who love this sport. If we don't support our local businesses we'll wonder someday why they aren't around anymore. Somtimes while I'm out on my motorcycle its on my radar just to stop in and see the latest inventory David has. Two thumbs up for LGS!
  9. I don't think I ever made a bad hand gun purchase, just less desirable than my wallet could stand. However I have made some bad ammo purchases!
  10. I bought one myself awhile back but after reading several stories like yours, I traded it w/o ever firing it. One guy mentioned sending his back to Para over 5 months ago and couldn't reach them by phone to check status. Better safe than sorry I always say so I traded it at a slight loss for a Kimber Crimson Trace.
  11. I can highly recommend TOTAL DEFENSE, INC. Mark Jones and Will Cosby/ former Military and LEO's They offer many different courses from HCP thru Advance Carry l, ll, lll as well as womens courses. info@totaldefenseinc.com in Lebanon TN. Great facilities too. Good Luck !
  12. In looking for some advanced classes for personal carry I ran across a new company locally that offers several types. Both instructors are former military and LEO's and the course instruction was just terrific. Knowing that they have several tiered course offerings I thought I might share it with those of you that feel that the HCP course just doesn't offer quite enough. The courses they offer provide several basic to advanced areas of instruction that allow the student to match their personal needs. They also offer women's only classes if your significant other feels more comfortable with that. Contact info: Mark Jones / Will Cosby at info@totaldefenseinc.net I found their course prices very reasonable and training facility excellent. I don't have any affiliation with them but thought there might be others like myself that needed more than the basic HCP course.
  13. From today's CITY PAPER: Belle Meade revisits handgun carry laws Friday, August 27, 2010 at 1:34am By James Nix A Belle Meade gun law, which the mayor called inappropriate and discriminatory, could soon be updated. The city’s board of commissioners is floating two proposed ordinances looking to either amend or delete a section of code that prohibits anyone to carry a dangerous weapon “with the intent to go armed” except for an “Army or Navy pistol which shall be carried openly in the hand.” It’s the second phrase in particular that the board stated harkened back to the Reconstruction Era. In a March 25 message to residents posted on the city’s website, the board stated the ordinance’s language appeared to be intended to restrict free blacks from owning handguns after the Civil War because mostly white men owned Army and Navy pistols. That law on the city’s books remained largely unnoticed until Leonard Embody, known as the Radnor Lake Rambo for taking an AK-47 pistol on a walk through Radnor Lake State Park, decided to take a Navy model 1851 black powder on a walk down Belle Meade Boulevard. Authorities stopped Embody, of Brentwood, in both cases and the incidents made headlines. That prompted Belle Meade commissioners to look into the law and propose an ordinance that would amend the law, removing the phrase “except the Army or Navy pistol which shall be carried openly in the hand.” That proposed ordinance passed on first reading Feb. 17 but has been deferred ever since. After the board introduced the first proposed ordinance, rumors spread that the city would ban the public from carrying handguns, prompting the March website posting by the commissioners. But as Mayor Gray Thornburg told The City Paper, the city just looked to remove the antiquated law from its books and anyone with a state issued handgun carry permit can carry in Belle Meade. “The long and short of it is,” Thornburg said, “we realized that we had an ordinance that a) was not appropriate and more importantly was very discriminatory, and so we needed to make a change.” Then in light of the June 28 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down a Chicago handgun ban, and in talking with the Belle Meade police department, commissioners decided the city might not need the old ordinance at all anyway. Last week, the Belle Meade board of commissioners passed on first reading an ordinance that would delete the entire section of city code (Title 11-602.) So it appears either the section of the original ordinance that allows open carry of just a specific type of gun — Army or Navy pistol — would be deleted or the whole section referring to carrying a gun in the open would be deleted because Belle Meade police would enforce the state law anyway. The thought is, said the mayor, that with the Supreme Court ruling, Belle Meade doesn’t need its own law. With the two ordinances passed on first reading and one sitting in deferral limbo, Belle Meade commissioners are giving themselves options to “clean up” the gun carry ordinance. “That’s what we’re trying to do,” Thornburg said. “Clean up what’s not in good shape.”
  14. At least once or twice a month. I usually take five pistols once per month and the next time I rotate a couple from the group.
  15. Theres a brandnew range at the Watertown Exit in Lebanon that is very nice. "The gun range" is the name and they just opened 2 weeks ago.
  16. (CNN) -- The Chicago, Illinois, City Council in a 45-0 vote approved a new gun ordinance Friday, four days after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the city's 28-year-old strict ban on handgun ownership was unconstitutional. Among other details, the ordinance allows only one operable firearm per household, meaning all other guns would need to have gun locks or be in locked cases. It also requires owners to have a state firearms permit, to register weapons with Chicago police and to take four hours of classroom training and one hour of firing range training. The plan also bans assault weapons and gun shops in the city. The June 28 Supreme Court ruling overturned the city's previous handgun ban. "Although the ruling wasn't what we had hoped for, it was what we expected," said Chicago Mayor Richard Daley. "That's why for the last several months we've been preparing the reasonable and responsible ordinance to regulate handguns in the home that the council approved today. ... "Either we enact new and reasonable handgun laws in Chicago to protect our residents -- as the council has done -- or we do nothing and risk greater gun violence in our streets and in our homes," he said. A 5-4 conservative majority of justices on Monday reiterated its 2-year-old conclusion that the Constitution gives individuals equal or greater power than states on the issue of possession of certain firearms for self-protection. "It cannot be doubted that the right to bear arms was regarded as a substantive guarantee, not a prohibition that could be ignored so long as states legislated in an evenhanded manner," wrote Justice Samuel Alito. The court grounded that right in the due process section of the 14th Amendment. The justices, however, said local jurisdictions still retain the flexibility to preserve some "reasonable" gun-control measures currently in place nationwide.
  17. Yeah I know . . . belongs to Roger and Stan Baines, THE GUN ROOM 705 Briskin Lane Lebanon, TN 453-6030 Actually the easiest way is get off I-40 e at the Watertown B exit Go under the interstate and take the first left and look for the American Flag pole on Right. ABSOLUTELY the BEST range I've ever seen, brand new and well equipped.
  18. Glocks are like model T's: Black Dependable easy to work on parts are everywhere!
  19. I have the SR9c, could not ask for a nicer EDC, (I love the XD also). I saw a new one this past weekend at the gun show for $359. I gave $379 for mine at Bass back when you couldn't find them but I'm very happy with it. You can feed it anything and its very accurate. I have a Don Hume holster for it that I like and Nite Siters on it until I can find a laser. Good luck!
  20. Here it is, No FTE's, no FTF's and dead accurate with the trace! THX GGP2JZ!
  21. I'm having GAS pains again, enter Pistol number five! I was at my local gun dealer over the weekend and this beautiful Kimber Ultra Crimson ll jumped out and grabbed my wallet. Well, my wife wasn't with me and no one else was looking so I just had to celebrate the fourth in style. That was easy . . . what isn't so easy is how to post a pic on this forum!!!!!!
