She didn't happen to find out why did she?
No but according to the sheriff’s FB page it is going to be rescheduled

My niece was going to go but found out beforehand it was canceled.

30+ years ago there was a rusty VW Beetle body at the edge of a field bordering AEDC.Sitting inside it in a lawn chair during a shotgun hunt I thought was a great idea,didn’t get a shot all weekend.

I owned a couple USPs over the years one in 9mm and the other 45 ACP.They were accurate and I liked the DA/SA or cocked and locked option. I didn’t like the clunky feel they had.The 45 wouldn’t feed 200 gr swc reloads (I’ve had 3 Glock 30s that wouldn’t either).

The only sentimental gun I have is my grandfather’s 410 dbl barrel that will go to my daughter.That being said she’s not really into guns but she will go shooting with me once in a blue moon and she loves shooting an old model Ruger Super Bearcat that I picked up at a pawn shop.She wouldn’t have clue how to load a NM Ruger because she’s never shot one.For that very reason and because I want one too I’m going to get a Colt SAA for my 60’th Birthday in 2024.I will leave her those 3 guns.The rest will be sold or traded like every other gun I’ve owned.

You could put grip tape on it.Several pre cut options on the market or buy some skateboard tape and DIY.

Not something I would want on my Glocks but super cool nonetheless.

I pulled it up on a map, so you go into the front door, walk to the "back room" and buy in Tn, that is cool. I just might have to go there so I can say I bought a firearm there.
Basically yes.You pay up front in the regular store but go to the back room in Tn to do the 4473 and background check.This is only for handguns,you can buy a long gun in Ga.

If you can get out on the lake, you should. It’s a gorgeous lake with scenery unlike much of the rest of the state.
The Clinch River right below there is a world class trout stream. Even if you’re not a fly fisherman, a light spinning rig with some rooster tails is a lot of fun.
The old downtown strip in Clinton is worth an hour or two. They’ve managed to take what by all accounts should be a depressed small town and revitalized it with a critical mass of antique stores and shops. It’s not generally my thing - but I almost always leave with something when I get pulled down there after family gatherings.
Antique stores in old small towns seems to be a trend now. I worked in Clinton back in 89 on a construction job.We fished the Clinch River a few times.

This is got my interest. Is there a wall or a railing separating the different sides of the building?
The building is right on the Ga/Tn line.They built a room on the back.You go down a short hallway to it.

Hilton Yam did a very informative Q&A about the Prodigy on IG.He hasn’t shot it yet but did a deep dive into the differences between it and the Staccato. The gist of it was the Staccato is almost $900 more for a reason,better parts and fitting.

I got a Rack Grade Colt slide and frame in the 2nd Rd.Very pleased with it.

James Yeager passed away yesterday.He had been battling ALS.

I forgot to suggest the Gerber LST.I think they made them in 2 sizes.

I like 1911s and Glocks equally.I bought my first 1911 in 87 and my first Glock in 90.I have around 4-5 of each at the moment.I’ve owned various DA/SAs and striker fired pistols over the years,I’ve even went down the BHP rabbit hole a couple times but I settled on the 1911 and Glock platforms as my go to pistols.

Check out the MAM knives.Very similar to Opinel except most of them are liner lock and the handles are flat.Light and very sharp.

I when or if this crap settles that’s not the new normal price for primers. I paid $16 for 200 SRP at the last gun show. I remember paying $12 a thousand back in the early 90s when I started reloading.

A good way for criminals to launder money is to over pay for common item, like firearms. Not saying that is what is happening in the above sale but anytime something sells for an unrealistic price it makes you wonder.
Or open a mattress store

No name eBay kydex IWB at 2 o’clock.I like the ease of being able to remove it quickly as my job doesn’t allow weapons in the workplace.

The DL renewal used to be easy to remember,it was every 5th birthday,35,40,45,etc. I had thought about getting the lifetime carry permit but the years vs money didn’t add up. I will be doing good to get 2 more renewals.

I went through a gun,ammo,reloading component move 2 years ago after the Easter tornado in Chattanooga,then I moved most of it back after the repairs.It was a chore.

No longer in existence but don’t forget Tn’s own Ducktown Derringer company.I heard the owner became a millionaire from the sales and retired, but more likely shut down over lawsuits.

That pistol flat out shoots too.
I’ve owned 3 of those 1991A1s,they were all very accurate.This is a great deal especially with the Novak sights.

Mass Shooting and Gun Violence are the hot new buzz words for the MSM.

A lot of them had parts replaced and or mixed up at the unit level.Only guns sent to an arsenal were stamped.
