And people wonder why I carry a gun...

Maybe I am late to the discovery, however I wear my shirt tale in most of the time and I IWB carry. Its hard sometimes to tuck the shirt in between the holster and the inside of the pants, its a tight fit between the clips, kydex and the pants. Most of the time I just use a credit card to push the shirt tale in. Tonight, I made a major discovery, use a shoehorn. I did, and it was quick and easy. So maybe I am a dork, or I might be on to something, but I did want to share with the community. For some of you of the younger generation, you probably don't have a clue what a shoehorn is: [url=http://s963.photobucket.com/user/runco0318/media/shoehorn_zps05fpaaiq.jpg.html][/URL]

  That is a extremely bad analogy. A safety is a feature, not a critical function of a firearm. Breaks are critical for any vehicle period. A safety is closer to an air conditioner, radio, or at worse, air bags. If that were not the case then every glock and any other gun without a safety would be inherently dangerous.   A signed release stating that the safety is non functional and that the buyer is aware of it is all you need for legal reasons. Broken stuff is bought and sold all the time that way. Besides, if a person lets their kid get ahold of a loaded firearm with a broken safety and the kid shoots someone, I think they are going to have more legal issues to deal with than suing you over the safety.

Whaaa? My kids and I love that movie. If anything, I interpreted the plot to have a liberty-oriented subtext, as the plot centers around defeating an overbearing, militarized government which seeks to control the individual liberties of its citizens. Plus I do the Batman voice for my kids. Makes them crack up every time. Life is too short to be so serious 24/7. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

While I think this is a slippery slope, from the sounds of it, this establishment most likely knew exactly what was going on.  

Weller 12 hit the shelves in Knoxville this week.   Good luck in your pursuit.   Sorry I cannot be of more assistance this time.

It might just be me, but I'd not sell or trade until it was fixed regardless of the law.

If they want that, I want all of them to pack their bags and get the hell out of no only Tennessee but The United States of America and go the hell back where they came from. Muhammad maybe their gods messenger but he is not mine nor any of my family's. Jesus is Our Messenger to Our GOD so just pack your bags and get the hell out............Not my so humble opinion this time......... :mad: :mad: 

There's someone besides Hickcock45?

  Such old news, figgered everybody knows. Got any updates on how that War of Northern Aggression thang is going? ;) :)   - OS

For the uninitiated, don't let the "Outlaw" thing discourage you.  These things are FUN.  You young folks get there early to help set up: those things are heavy.  Put your gym membership to work. 

I got a couple clips of those at the house. :)

That's the first time I had ever seen anything like that at any theater and I saw it *after* my movie was finished. I would never let some pimple faced theater employee come near me with a wand.

That was my thought as well. His form may be a little off, but his weapons aren't. That slice on the 5 gal container was awesome.

Here's one I made up to sell on Etsy. It fits a Gransfors Bruk Small Forest Axe. I'm contemplating whether I should add a couple of small D rings to the back so it could be more easily lashed to a pack.

Say what you will, but he must know a thing or 2 about sharpening a blade. Most of those cuts were pretty clean.

Wait for it to come out at the Redbox and don't have to worry about being wanded.

From what I've seen they knew EXACTLY what was going on. I have no problems with this outcome.

My opinion from both sides.   As the seller or trader- I would make sure to inform the potential buyer that the safety did not function properly and with all the recent lawsuit buzz I would probably draw up a document stating such and make sure to have it signed and dated by both parties to have something in writing just in case. It might be butt wipe with ink on it in a court of law but I'd at least feel better about selling a "broken" gun.   As the buyer- I would expose it as a flaw in the gun and try to haggle you down with it :)  But I wouldn't preach law to you, however true or not. That approach never flies with me when I'm selling something.   Personally I would wait for another rainy day and attempt another fix of that safety. Or find someone who will :))

Dude is full of horse shoes from what I can see in my FFL regulations guide. I'll do a more through search and hopefully one or some of our vetted dealers here can clarify, but the whole thing seems super fishy to me. He's advising you that the sale is a crime, yet encouraging you to commit said crime by... selling it to him. Only for $100 less than advertised.     Riiiiiiiggggghhhhht. That makes perfect sense in crazy land.*     Now I will say I would personally spend the couple of bucks fixing the safety before I sold it, but then again thats in part because I too would low ball the hell out someone selling a broken  gun. I wouldn't try to piss down their neck and tell them it was raining, but I wouldn't buy one like that for anything less than a serious discount, existence of kits for pistols and all.           *Crazy Land.  Population: That guy.

Someone copied the tornado plan and pasted it into the "shooter" plan, it sounds like. 

Bulldoze the ones up on the road out off the side into the pit. They die when they splat. Backup and do it again as more come up the road. Use 2 or 3 hardened dozers to keep it cycling and cover one another.   Leave a few walkers in there to keep calling in more. Go back every few weeks/months and wash-rinse-repeat.   Set barricades at several points in case the road collapses when you're not there to watch.

I don't like other people making plans for me. 

Complaining that Franklin Gun overcharges is like complaining about a politician telling a lie. You know'd that before you went in that place. Won't surprise me a bit one day when they start charging a cover charge to walk in the door.

I went to the Green Hills theater today to watch Sicario(which was awesome), and I saw staff wanding people looking for weapons before a special viewing. I was disturbed by this and spoke to a cop there. I asked him where the signage was banning weapons from the premises? I looked everywhere and not a one sign in sight. The manager said, "I think we have one somewhere...." Yeah, that wand is gonna do a lot of good when a psycho goes out the unguarded exit door in the theater and gets weapons. Rolling my eyes at that.. The cop didn't know dick about proper signs or anything like that. I don't think he fully understood anything. I'm preaching to the choir here, but I was annoyed by it all. Just had to get it off my chest.

Hickok45 by a landslide but I enjoy 22plinkster, MAC, and IV8888 also. Edit: wish tnoutdoors9 was still putting out more videos

Something that has been on my mind lately.   Keep in mind, I see this as unlikely but still prefer to have a plan of action.   At work, they have a Shelter in place plan that is the same for natural vs man made disaster.  I have no doubt that if there was an active shooter situation they would call for everyone to go to the SIP location which only 2 locations in the whole building.   For me, the shelter in place calls for me to leave my area and go down 1 floor into a hallway that you can only access via security badges.  My badge won't open that door so I would be completely dependent on someone at the door to let me in.  During Drills they always have someone there.  (I don't expect the brave management types to be that brave during an actually emergency).   I agree with the plan in the event of say a tornado.   However if there is an active shooter, I would no want to go to the hall way.   I believe I would take another route which is about equal distance from my seat to an emergency stairwell  at the end of the building.  It is not locked from the inside, the only locks prevent someone from getting in.  You can exit all day long any day or night. I normally park on the end of the building and use it as a means of leaving the building almost daily anyways so it is a path i know well.   Thoughts?  Go with the Corp. Plan and SIP or try to make an escape? I have pretty well made my mind up, I am going for the escape to get outside.  If there is a shooter in the building, I want to be on the outside.   Odds are unless shooting started directly near me, I would have enough time to go to that stairwell, especially if people are following the funnel to the SIP location. There are only about 10 offices between me an that Stairwell, plus 2 paths to it vs the SIP location only has 1 real path from my location due to a choke point.    

  Investigators are paid to use their brains, not a decision matrix.  Patterns show themselves when you analyze enough data properly.  There doesn't need to be a fixed quantity over a fixed time span to determine something like this.

Maybe this is a silly question but how many guns need to show up in crimes from a single store to investigate it for possible criminal activity ???

What it made me think of is the anti gun nuts and their focus on guns rather than violence.   That kid could charge into a class with those axes and do a lot of serious damage before anyone realized what was happening.

I'm planning to make some belt sheaths for various hatchets and small axes and I made this prototype for my Wetterling's #115 Hunter's Hatchet. I'm looking for some feedback on it, including suggestions for improving the design. It's made with heavyweight saddle leather has a filler along the blade edge. I'm thinking the belt loop on the back can be improved by sewing/riveting on a wider loop. Any other thoughts?

I was planning on going to the Green Hills theater.  :down:  Oh well...

Lmao. I'm pretty sure that will get some attention!

I make my own pocket holsters using a one gallon water jug and gaffers tape. Here is a link to the process. http://www.thektog.org/forum/f87/milk-jug-pocket-holsters-256713/ The advantages of this for a pocket holster are... 1. They are super thin. If you want to hide something in your front pocket, the holster needs to be as thin as possible. 2. You can contour the holster to fit against your leg and to fit how you want it to fit in your pocket. I have some holsters that are longer so the gun presents higher in a really deep pocket. That is, the bottom inch or two is just pocket filler to raise the tiny gun higher in the pocket. 3. You can shape the "hook" so it becomes almost impossible for the holster to come out when you draw. I see this as a huge plus. I have to unholster the gun to remove the holster, but it can be pocketed with the weapon with no problem. 4. It's cheap... a roll of gaffers tape is $12 and the water jug is free or only a dollar if you don't have one available. You can use duct tape, but it looks awful, as you can see in the pictures in the above link. Gaffers tape doesn't leave a visible tape residue. Here's a pic from the above link showing a tiny KelTec P3-AT in a DeSantis and a Glock 26 in a milk jug holster. They are almost the same width! The P3-AT in the DeSantis holster is 1 3/16" wide... actually it's even wider until the sides are compressed in your pocket. The gun in the milk jug holster on the right is 1 5/16" wide, a barely noticeable difference in the pocket, but it's a Glock 26!

I'm busy as hel these days but I can get a pic of the mug up in the next couple days. I'll post it with somethin to give you an idea of the size, and thank you DaveS.

Tennessee is a big state and not everyone that makes knives is on this forum, but thank you for your excellent contribution to this thread.

  Same situation if they don't hear it. Means lower court decision stands as case law for any local jurisdiction to be essentially as restrictive as they want as long as they don't ban every type firearm completely.   The "degree of infringement" on something that is not to be infringed at all will be ongoing -- neither Heller nor McDonald was definitive about that at all.   - OS

Check out Comp Tac too, great holsters.

I think you should ask a child psychologist. I think this has the potential to cause more problems than 6 months of not seeing her Mom. I think a County mental health facility might talk to you for free. Disclaimer: I’m not a child Psychologist, don’t play one on TV and didn’t sleep at a Holiday Inn last night.
