As long as there are employers who are willing to hire illegals, they'll keep coming. Neither political party will do anything to impose penalties on those employers, and we all know why. And thus the illegal immigration problem continues.

This is not the way we do it on TGO- If you want to low ball someone do it in a private PM- For new members maybe you should read the rules before posting- But it could be your just a troll and can't read-

Agreed, lesser of 2 evils. I will say, however, that the time to vote your conscience is in the GOP primary. The moderate/RINO seems to keep winning the big nominations instead of the conservatives.

You're right, the weather is about the same, but I'm getting old and I feel it more.

So many moons ago, (early '80's), I had to make a decision what I liked and disliked. Dept required we use something that could fire .38 spl. So, with not much to offer, it was either going to be S&W or Colt... Went to the shop and I needed to be convinced of which. Then, it was a matter of preference. The S&W rattled a tad when you shook it, the Colt, solid as a rock. So, my love of Colts started up. Within a short period of time, I bought a 4" Nickel Python, 6" Royal Blue Python, a Nickel 1911 MKV Series 70. Short after, ...the Colt Lawman Mark III .357 My carry was the 4" Python and backup was the Lawman. My dept was hell bent on not using revolvers anymore, so I was able to carry the 1911.... (would be nice if they paid something), but truth be told, revolvers were not that expensive, and I already had what I needed. Over the years, I started getting more interest in semi-autos and went with HKs... I sold my 6" to a guy in AZ, my 4" to a kid just out of the academy and my Lawman to the guy that owned my marina... Knowing what we know today for the going price, I kick myself in the arse for getting rid of them. Who would have known. Kept the 1911 only for remembrance. Eventually had it chromed, (nobody does nickel anymore ,(and if so, would be very expensive) ... and fitted with tritium sights my old eyes could see... So, my quest. I just got my hands on an excellent 1976 vintage Lawman Mark III. Must have been in someone's safe for decades because looks like it was never shot. Still had cosmoline on some parts. I got a deal that I could not pass up. I will slowly rebuild my Pony/Pythons of yester-year. My only Colts and hopefully not the last, (excuse the tint and oily prints. They are both shiny mirror like. Hard to get shot without reflection..) :

New guy trying to stir the pot. I've carried 1911s for about 40 years. Ain't dropped one yet.

I was saying this very thing to my wife- I noticed an awful lot of people there that are at least as old as I am if not older- There isn't enough money in the universe to get me at a action such as this- Those my age and older should stop and think of the real reason they are there in the first place- There are way too many that are believing the lies put out by leftist media- I would think that by the time you are old enough to start using Metamucil you wouldn't be foolish enough to believe everything you hear- And shame on your old ass for getting involved in stupid crap like all this in the first place-

If they are deported and then return it is now a felony from what I understand. Also if they are deported they are not eligible to legally return ever. Sneaking back in is much harder now as well. If they self deport they can try to come back legally.

Springfield M1 Garand Service Grade (30.06) that was purchased in the early 70's and is still unfired. Springfield barrel with a muzzle of less than 1 and a throat of 1.5. The trigger group is HRA and the Op Rod is National Match. Finish is conservatively very good to Excellent. Stock is beautiful with a strong "P" on the wrist. Serial shows post WW2 1953. I'm asking $1500 cash (no trades) FTF at my location or shipped for $60. This one is special and it is beautiful. DETAILED PHOTO's HERE: https://imgur.com/a/7kYqZE1

Alright, update on this post...thanks for all of the info, advice, and tips on this post. As of right now, I am awaiting my very first AR-15 5.56 16" to arrive at my FFL in just a couple of days! After all my research, the info I received here, and a sale I could NOT pass up for Father's Day, I will be the proud owner of a Watchtower Type 15M. I will be setting up a small shooting range on my property this week and moving it to the back of my property later this year. Might as well make use of the 17 acres we own out here. Planning on providing pics once the rifle gets here, as well as pics of the range evolution. Looking forward to this new adventure, and yes, safety first and member of GOA, NRA, and USCCA to help further my education. Will be hitting a few ranges in the next month or so as well just to stretch my legs a bit. Hope y'all don't mind joining my pride in this journey as well!

BUYER MUST BE LEGAL TO OWN A PISTOL AND HAVE A TN DRIVERS LICENSE AND/OR TN CCP (PREFERRED), PM ME IF INTERESTED.

I think they’ll be alright. Ruger isn’t interested in the brand name, but they were interested in the manufacturing capacity. According to what I’ve read, those folks still have jobs.

Someone educate me, please. This parliamentarian dudette removed the part that took this stuff out of the NFA, but left in a reduction in the tax cost? Why the hell do we even allow a lib to be in that position when. We control the senate?

Voting for Democrats is a definite loser- Just look at the disaster any Democrat run city or state leaves- So not voting for the Conservatives is also not the answer-

I got this off a member on here a few years ago. It is as purchased from him plus about 40 rounds down range. It has sat in the safe other than that. It is a rifle, 10 round magazine and 20 round magazine, and some of the paperwork that come with it. Will throw it in a soft case for transport/sale. Not sure what these are going for these days but see they are racking up a solid $2,000 MSRP new. I'm thinking $1,500 is a good cash discount. Located in Franklin, TN.

In November, 2015 I decided to add a high capacity optic equipped pistol to my carry rotation. I had never even shot a S&W M&P but I am a S&W fan boy so I bought a new 4 1/4" M&P40 PC Ported and put a Type 1 (the only one made at that time) Trijicon 6.5 MOA RMR RM07 on it. I also installed the full Apex internals, everything that they sold for it. I tried a few different holsters and settled on the CompTac Flatline. Thousands of rounds through it and not a single malfunction of any kind. For defensive carry it is topped up with Federal 165 HST. When either of the M&Ps do nightstand duty they get a Streamlight TLR-1 A few years later I bought a 5" S&W M&P9 PC Ported and put a Trijicon Type 2 3.25 MOA RMR RM06 on it. It also has full Apex internals in it and rides in a BladeTech holster that I had used in IDPA for my S&W M&P9 Pro Series. About a half dozen years ago I decided I wanted a Trijicon RMR on a 1911. After looking at all of the "candidates" the least valuable one was a S&W SW1911 in .45 ACP that I had bought new in December of 2012. Because the Trijicon RMRs are wider than a 1911 slide Trijicon makes an adapter that includes a rear night sight and includes the front suppressor height night sight. After much research I decided to send the slide to Parker Mountain Machine, and I'm very glad that I did. I'm a retired Machinist, Tool & Die Maker, CAD/CAM Operator, CNC Programmer and Operator I can appreciate outstanding machine work when I see it. The machining is fantastic! I originally put a new Type 2 Trijicon 6.5 MOA RMR RM07 on it but later swapped with the M&P40 PC Ported as it gets shot and carried much more. I've already introduced the members to my S&W CSX with a 6 MOA SIG Romeo-X that is currently carried in a 1791 pancake holster. None of my revolvers have red dots, yet. Cheers James

I wasn’t saying ya’ll are fussing, just making a general comment about the yearly summertime drama the weather people and/or treehuggers stir up and the mentality of people nowadays: Guys at work: The high today is 106!! Global warming!! Me: No, the high is 93. Them: But TV/news/social media said 106! Me: That’s the heat index, a made up number. The temperature is the same as last year and the year before and the year before that. Them: But it’s 106!

I was finally able to pick up a Winchester 71. Been on the hunt for one for quite awhile. All the ones I wanted were in excellent shape and had the price tag to match. I found this one in an auction out west. It has seen a lot of use but that just gives it more character. The rear sight has been removed and a Lyman peep sight installed. I guess because of that nobody seemed interested and I picked it up pretty cheap. Now I just have to give it a good cleaning and put a few rounds through it.

Agreed. I'll give the seller another free bump (even though its already at the top). I've listed a lot of stuff here, GOC, & various other forums and groups. At $20/year, this is the most expensive (lol) of all of them and is so worth it. The amount of bs and riff raff it keeps out is well worth it. And the feedback here is far more reliable. I just wish it had more reach but that's also a double edged sword that comes with the aforementioned bs. All in all, I deal with far more confidence here than anywhere else.

Sold

I love Colts. I will always pick one up if I run across a good deal on one. Here is my current collection of Colts. Revolvers: Anacondas in .44 mag and .45 colt, Python, Officers Model Match in .38 spl and .22 and a Bankers Special in .38 S&W 1911's: 2 USMC Decom M45A1 CQB and a Lightweight Commander

I talked to my son-in-law yesterday and he told me the morning was fine and crew was getting job closer until 3 white vans showed up and 8 ICE agents got out. 30 minutes later he had to shut the job down because he was now 17 men less working. ICE arrested 17 illegals on his jobsite and took them away. They were all men from a Temp Service. He found out later that day that ICE went to the new Football Stateum Lost 48 Temp Company employees to ICE and they had to get more vans to pick them up. My son in law went to the office of the Temp Service to find out what was going on and why their Temp workers were put on jobs when they didn't have Green Cards and the guy said that they were not required to check for green cards. Son-in-law informed him that they would not be paying them for the half day and would not be back for workers anymore. Now with that said. If anyone on TGO is looking for a good paying job Liberty Construction is hiring legal citizens and Americans. If you are interested send me a PM and I will hook you up.

This Hi-Point Model 995 is chambered in 9mm. It comes with 4 mags and a stock sleeve with mag pouches to tame the fierce recoil of a 9mm round from such a heavy weapon, LOL. Seriously though, it's a ton of fun to shoot if you ain't worried about shooting ugly guns (no offense meant to you Glock Fanboys). $200 and this beauty is yours, I'm in La Vergne, TN but will try my best to accommodate a reasonably close meeting place. PM me if you have any questions. Would trade for 9mm and/or 5.56/.223 ammo.

For sale is a CZ 2075 D RAMI for $600. CZ discontinued this model in 2020 for some stupid reason because it's one of the coolest pistols they ever made. This one is located in La Vergne, TN, but I'll do my best to make a meetup convenient and easy, if I can. PM me if you have any questions or need a specific pic I left out. This RAMI is a 9mm subcompact with a 3" barrel This is a BD model with a decocking lever instead of a manual safety It comes with 2 mags: a 10-rounder for concealed carry and a 14-rounder with a sleeve for a bit more purchase on the gun The grips are G10 Starburst texture for extra grip (if I find the original thick rubber ones before it sells, I'll include them) The coyote brown Cerakote finish is not original. The previous owner had it done. Whoever they used did a spectacular job. It looks great, IMO! The original case, owners manual and other paperwork, and the original sights are included I took it to the range today and ran one of each mag through it before cleaning it up to be sold. It ran like a top and I almost didn't make this post, LOL. Here's some pics:

The Durham County GOP had a raffle. They would give away one gun a day through May. $30 a ticket. They texted me that I had won a Winchester Defender pump action 12ga. I was so excited. I picked up the shotgun and bought 100 rounds of 00 buck shot. Unfortunately, I just had my shoulder replaced and cannot shoot it until September. I have a few shotguns but not a 12ga pump. This Defender is made in Turkey. I have a Remington Wingmaster 16ga that I have had since the 1960s. It is smooth as butter and will rack a shell with one hand. When I raise it to my shoulder I am automatically looking down the barrel. It is a beautiful shotgun that has put a lot of meat on the table. This Defender......not so much. I am 6'2" and I have to reach for the forearm to rack the slide. There is nothing smooth about this shotgun. I could buy a new stock for it but that would cost as much as the gun is worth. I think it needs some breaking in, so in September I'm going to run that buck shot through it. It is camouflaged, so I got that going for me.

I set off on my motorsickle this morning to ride to Cookeville to play some racquetball, as I do most every Monday. I wasn't too far from home when I crested a hill and there stood a big ol' black bear in the road. I stopped 75 feet or so from him. I was on a black bike with a black helmet, and he may have mistaken me for another bear, as he took a few steps in my direction. Let me tell you, guys, a black bear looks a lot different when you're sitting on a motorbike than it does when you're inside your pickup truck. Especially when he seems to have no particular concern about your presence. I've been close to bears in the woods a few times, but I always had a rifle or a bow in-hand. But I tootled my horn and flashed the high beams at him and he decided he wanted no part of me and headed into the woods that border the road. (The Catoosa Wildlife Area) It's amazing how hard they are to see once they're in the woods. I looked hard as I rode past where he left the road, and didn't see a thing.

I have an excellent condition: Benjamin 392 .22 caliber pellet rifle, oak stock, and Williams rear sight. It was one of the last oak stocks listed for this version when I bought it. I'm not a collector, just don't shoot it (safe queen), had some backyard pests that needed to be stopped. It is in excellent condition and have only shot maybe 100 .22 cal pellets through it (very accurate didn't need too many pellets). It'll put the hurt on backyard rodents and so much fun to shoot. Pump to the power level you want or need. Comes with a can of 500 .22 cal 14.3 pellets (very accurate in this rifle), a 392 o-ring repair kit, and tube of high quality pellet rifle oil. It has such low use, always keep a couple pumps in it for o-rings, that kit was never needed. Side note - No more pests $199 meet in Smyrna

CZ Scorpion pistol in 9mm. Comes with the sb tactical folding brace, vortex crossfire red dot, 4 mags (2 20’s and 2 30’s), the original box, back plate, and cleaning kit. Has around 150 rounds through it. Located in Murfreesboro. Asking $950 obo or trades.
