So basically you guys are going to try and blame video games the same way the libs try to blame the guns?

He lived. Disqualified :)

Why in the world would anyone think ma deuce in tn GUN owners? Lol Yeah I probably should have added, and a half...... I didn't have any pics like night. It took six hours to get here and it was too dark... I got some today! With the 54" tires the handle is right above my head level, so about 6'. My 4 year old girl loves it! She wants a pink one..... I now want to mount a ma deuce over the cab. I'm gonna call it the Double Deuce and drive around dressed like Patrick Swayze!

it would be nice of you to use better language

  Where you write poetry to exchange for goods? ;)

Because most of the media has an agenda. This kinda blows the anti-gun argument. Liberals hate to admit that there is real evil in the world.

  No time to explain. RUN Dammit! :panic:

I enjoy the occasional beer, but this still makes me laugh.

I have been home with Ava this afternoon while mom has been out and about.. When she got home with the parts to my next project (fixing the oil leak on her truck) she also handed me a bag and said Happy Easter.. I said what is this? She said , just look!! It was two tee-shirts..

Personal monetary interests of folks who would see their NFA items decrease in value at the repeal of an unjust law are secondary to my right to purchase those items without a prohibitive tax. Wait, it isn't just secondary or tertiary, it shouldn't even be a consideration when we discuss this.

Buy the bullet puller. This may be the first time you need one, but it likely won't be the last. Kinetic bullet puller=the handloader's eraser.

Money is the biggest part of the problem. A fiat money system only works when the gov't controlling its value can be trusted. We trusted them and they dropped the gold standard. Now they can do anything they want to the value of our currency. You work your ass off for a dollar today and next year it's not worth as much, because they printed too much money. Then they have the nerve to call it "inflation" as if it's some natural phenomenon that cannot be controlled. Then they lead us to believe that our money is ours, but we want it to be more secure. So, we make the system electronic with imaginary 1's and 0's flying around in a computer somewhere. All they while, if you do something they don't like they can flick a switch and turn your 1's into 0's and freeze your accounts. We made it too easy for them, it's inevitable that they'll eventually do what Cyprus did. They'll say it's for our own good and that it's to preserve our way of life, but the ants will always be forced to feed the grasshoppers. There's already 47 grasshoppers for every 53 ants. And as soon as there are 51, we're screwed!

  I would never do that, even though I seen you do it more than once :)

Its surprising of the people that have no clue about what and/or what not can be done by Law Enforcement and /or DHS..  Paperwork signed by a judge better be in hand if they come to my house.. I have a long, funny story related to my Target practice and the neighbor across the road.. Kind'a unrelated but funny all the same.. My friend at central dispatch told me there was a call last week about some shooting n my neck of the woods.. He asked the caller two questions.. 1. Is it in the county? 2. Is he shooting on his own land? Needless to say the last Deputy that showed up at my house was due to him wanting to shoot my P238 (off duty). Stand your ground people.. Stand your ground..

Obama did say if he had a son he'd look like Trayvon. ;)

I guess thats what I get for not checking an email my dad sent me. Oh well Thats what they should say!!

FTFY  From Jethro Bodine's Naught-Naught Spy stuff, the funniest of which was the Jethro Bodine Ejector Seat...from Double Naught Jethro (March 3, 1965)

My first thought was that Milton had torched the walkers at the pit.  Upon thinking about it further, though, I am not so sure.  For one thing, Milton still believes that the 'biters' have something of their old selves still preserved inside and that they can possibly be saved.  To his mind, they are still largely sick people.  I have a hard time imagining him pouring gasoline on them and setting them on fire.   Another point that goes against Milton being the one is that no one is allowed outside the walls after dark.  Milton having been out after dark would be noticed.  Further, I have never seen anything to indicate that Milton has ready, easy access to a vehicle or to gasoline, etc.   Because of those factors, I am actually thinking that it was Martinez who torched the walkers.  As he is basically the governor's 'lieutenant' in charge of guarding the wall, he could have arranged to slip out/in with no one noticing.  He is also one of the people that is sometimes shown driving so he would also have ready access to a vehicle and gasoline.   Martinez will do what he has to do but at the same time I think his 'talk' with Daryl at the meeting made him realize that even people who aren't with his group are still people.  I think it also made him realize how much lying/manipulation the Governor has been doing.  Martinez also said something along the lines that the walkers/biters took his wife and kids.  He hates walkers because of that and I could easily see him torching them without hesitation.  Also, now that he knows that the people in the prison aren't the militant threat that the Governor has wanted them to believe - and that there are children in the prison - he might have a problem with feeding them to the walkers, especially if that is what happened to his own kids.   There is also the matter of the Governor's continued instability and increasing paranoia.  Martinez has largely replaced Merle as the Governor's 'right hand man'.  Martinez also saw what happened to Merle and has to know that things didn't go down exactly as the Governor said.  He has to be wondering how long it will be before the Governor's paranoia turns on him (Martinez), as well.  I get the feeling that Martinez is still human enough to not want to sic biters on little kids but is also ruthless and conniving enough to use this conflict as an opportunity to rid himself and Woodbury of their increasingly unbalanced and dangerous leader.   I haven't read that far in the comics but have seen comments to the effect that - in the comics - the Governor's own people turn on him.  Maybe they are setting things up for something like that, here.  It would make for an interesting 'surprise' twist if, when things come to a head, Martinez kills the Governor, assumes leadership of Woodbury and tells Rick et al that he is giving them one chance to leave the prison and keep moving - and that if he sees them again he will kill them all.

the .gov needed to inject some code into the matrix, now they can listen inside your households when you have the cable box turned on.

That still keeps my biggest reason for not doing it. I don%t want any firearm or accessories that are registered with the government for any reason Sent from behind my anvil in ye olde smithy

Play nice, boys. This is only the internet.

As a veteran, I still oppose this bill.  I am against ANY bill that gives one group of citizens privileges that other citizens cannot have.  I do not favor laws that permit retired police officers, judges, or anyone else to carry without a permit unless everyone who can legally possess a firearm can do so as well.  Thus, I do not support a bill which gives certain veterans a privilege that everyone cannot have.   If, as a private citizen, you want to start a fund to pay part or all of the fee for veterans, I'm fine with that and would probably contribute.  But making a law that gives special privileges is a bad idea.

All my 100 packs have been 4 boxes of 25, each with its own tax stamp. Likely this is nothing to with Walmart so much as a state level issue. It's important to remember that Walmart, or any other retailer for that matter only collects the tax not profits from it. Additionally, they are not payed for the service of collecting tax. It is something they HAVE to do. Any frustration towards Walmart on this subject is wrongfully placed.

Revolvers are in short supply because stupid people elected obama.

That'd be great for us, but I'd really hate to see a "special privilaged class" created just because I'd benifit from it. I'd like to see every law-abiding person share the same "right" to keep & bear arms as the 2nd intended.

Lets think critically on this for a second folks. We know that there are tens of millions of folks with firearms who never go on shootings sprees or have any inclination towards murder. At the same time there are tens of millions of people who play shooting video games who don't go on violent shooting sprees. Anyone ever think for a moment that it isn't the gun or the video game that magically transforms a person into a mass murderer? Perhaps a person who fantasizes about mass murder acquires that weapon for the purpose of murder and plays the violent video game to feed their obsession with murder. Just a thought. Blaming video games for violence is like blaming guns. It is an incredibly stupid argument.

  It looks like CDNN has stainless parts available.  http://www.cdnninvestments.com/be92magrebuw.html

Mine is YTREWQ, and i play it left handed strung right handed..   Christ I hope I got all that right.. 

I'm now wrapping duck tape around my head so it doesn't explode!

To be honest I thought this was going to be a FS/FT post lol.   $160 for the lot, or trade for an AR!

Hard to get  some folks to see this, but, your cash is your property.  Taxes are legalized theft of property.  If you did not have to give the government your taxes, you could buy more property. Government has a mechanism to take everything you have, including your life.

I liked the part where you said "Well, the grass IS greener, and it's not necesarily over a septic tank"  LOL !!!!!!

I believe you have the species correct, however the location of the orifice seems about 180° off...

  well that doesn't count, it was for their own good.

yeah.that is showing her!

Actually, there is no reason you shouldn't be able to do that under the laws that Congress passed.  The CLEO signature, fingerprints, photo and wait are all required by regulations created by BATF, not required by the NFA, GCA, or other law. All that is required by the actual NFA, GCA, etc is LEO approval (NICS or TICS check?  Duh.) and the appropriate tax or $200 or $5.   But, I agree.  Ideally, you should be able to walk into WalMart, Bass Pro, or wherever with cash, and walk out with a M-240, M-249, M-4, or similar firearm without filling out any forms or submitting to interrogation.   As for the blatantly un-Constitutional '86 Hughes amendment banning us from new manufactured machine guns, there is no valid reason for it to continue.  There is no better example of an un-Constitutional Law than that one.  The Supreme Cort has ruled several times that the specific type of weapon explicitly protected by the Second amendment are those suitable for military use.

This is some real German engineering. He's created some pretty amazing slingshots.    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKrHnYexBic 

Well considering that this is a gun forum from a class3 friendly state I'd be shocked if any one was against the idea. The laws are unconstitutional at best and tyrannical at worst. The idea that FA weapons or sir pressed weapons are somehow more dangerous than any other is IMO laughable.

Well, if the PPQ trips continue to be like this: ... crawling back ain't happening.

Don't suppose you are. I just don't care for people that stick to their ideals only until it suits them otherwise....

I am no economist, but I do think having large sums of "cash" is dangerous. I think owning something other than cash is wise. Property, goods, stocks, metals, etc. is more wise than having cash. Think for a moment, if cash was worthless, those other items will be worth something, maybe not cash, but something.

I think that the very very idea that Gov agency's would plan an all out assault on the heaviest armed civilian population in history using hollow point pistols caliber ammunition is absurd. People need to start paying attention to the real threats to their freedoms and stop jumping at their own shadows.

I recently picked up a Vortex StrikeFire, and with the 2x screw-in magnifier, I was able to hit a steel target at 300 +/- yards on a pretty consistent basis. I don't think my eyes would allow me to do that without the 2x magifier.

  Well I think that is true no matter the times we live in.  When I was in the Nasty Guard we trained for riots and such.  As I recall much of it was geard toward LA style type riots, not peaceful demostrations.  No matter, it is diligent for them to train for such things since that is a potential mission they are deployed for.  If I was a commander of a NG infantry battalion, that is one of the main things I would focus training on, in addition to war time roles and disaster relief.  If I didn't I would be derelict. 

What a great start to season. The new tires though are garbage. Should make for an interesting year. Sent from my SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2

Throw it out in the yard.  Good fertilizer.

I like the sentiment behind this proposal, but I'm not convinced it would set a good precedent.  I'm already very uncomfortable with the State requiring us to pay a fee before we are allowed to exercise a right.  In fact, when you look at Article I, Section 26 of the Tennessee Constitution it seems clear that it does not allow such fees.  And that's without even touching the federal Constitution's 2A, which probably was intended to prohibit the rise of any kind of statist prerequisites for owning or bearing firearms.   Conceptually, recognizing different rights for different categories of citizens is so deeply flawed and so recently relevant that I'm somewhat astounded this bill was ever written.  The Jim Crow era is well within living memory.  Making veterans or firefighters or police officers or teachers members of a privileged class does not help the dilemma of logic: if we all have the same rights, why don't we all have the same rights?   Shake a veteran's hand.  Mow his yard for him.  Treat him to lunch.  Tell him you're proud of him - and not just on Veterans' Day.  But giving him a lifetime permit to do something he has a right to do in the first place?  To this veteran that smells like an effort to cast illegal restrictions of my rights in a better light.

A lot of things have happened since 2000. You couldn't look at our military spending in 1999 and compare that to 2009... that would be silly. Same thing for the DHS, which didn't even exist then. There has been a great focus since 9/11 on homeland security, which means more gun toters and bullets for them to fire. It is literally simple math.

I'm aware of the supposed facts that are out there. They have all been debunked. I could debunk all those points once again, but I don't suppose it would do any good since folks are going to believe what they want to believe. I do find it humorous when folks talk about others drinking the Kool Aid when all they're doing is exchanging fruit punch flavor for kiwi-strawberry.

  I'm afraid you have more faith in humanity than I do. I seem to remember the people re-electing Obama. That pretty much sealed my opinion of the masses.
