I had an Metro Nashville LEO stop and help me when I blew a radiator hose on McGavock Pike one morning. Couldn't get the bad hose clamp to work and lost a lot of coolant. He took the time to drive me to a nearby auto parts place, wait for them to open (early AM) and drive me back to my car. He didn;t have to do that, he could have just as easily called a tow truck. He wasn't on patrol as he was on the way to practice exiting a helicopter on a rope. I have the utmost respect for our police force. You might have a bad apple sometimes, but most are great people doing a tough job with little thanks. What kind of society would we be without them,4 points

You'll pass out long before you are ever arrested and prosecuted for violating 922r. Who checks these things?3 points

True. I've been tempted by several items from them, but just haven't wanted to give the asking price. And in spite of my handle, I'd buy a CZ75 before the SOG Hipower pricing. But I want a shooter, not a collector piece.2 points

SOG may be charging that much since they went to all the effort of taking actual photos and posting them of the thing. This seems to be a new development. Seems to me SOG has always been a bit on the high side for their "collector" pieces.2 points

Using the same source to fund two addictions is sometimes a problem. I recently found another gun I had to have. Glad I had paid for the TR4 in advance.2 points

I too, see this country spiraling down towards civil unrest and I think the ones in power at the moment, are perpetuating that spiral with their rhetoric. I don't think anyone really wants to see the result either. All this talk about Australian like gun control, which really means gun confiscation, may be the first real effort to push the right into open rebellion, depending on how the 2016 elections go.2 points

Call the TWRA, I have heard of them retrieving deer in these situations. I know of one such instance personally. It's worth a shot so that the deer isn't wasted.2 points

I am offering unwanted and unsolicited advise here...so hold on to your wallets. Guys, if you are fence-sitting on getting one of these knives...read this. I am not a big-time knife collector. I don't know crap about much at all truthfully. But if you are thinking about ordering one of the TR4 knives...don't hesitate on it. You won't get a better production made knife at this kind of price. These are solid, well made knives, and they are great looking. Quality shows in each build. They open with a good solid feel and close easily. The finish is awesome on them. And they are sharp! Both literally and figuratively! The only way you will get a knife of the same quality will be to go to a custom knifemaker and get a one-off model. I know this because I do have a couple of nice pieces from Kim Breed and an A.G. Russell. I have had a couple of early Randall knives but let them get away. In short, these are some great knives for pocket carry or just to say you have a nice little collection. You have 1 day left. Get off the pot!2 points

I don’t know why people get so paranoid about drones. They are great recreational toys and used in legitimate business. Like guns, (or most anything else) they have the potential for abuse, but that needs to be dealt with when it happens. If someone destroys my property while I am using it lawfully, they will be arrested and prosecuted as fully as I can make happen.2 points

I would have been all over any $300 S&W! . I think with a little effort your Dan Wesson will go $400-$450.1 point

Had a good time too, even with my lead sled I can feel the effects from over 50 rounds of .308. Don't be in a rush to dump the GEMTECH, just dropped it into the gauge and it dropped on in with no issues. Fixing to measure the OAL to see what that gives. Gauge: OAL: Looks like it may a combination of OAL and maybe your chamber, it dropped right into my spare barrel.1 point

Fun match today guys! I finally got to practice strong hand shooting. Too bad practice was on the clock. :)1 point

Photography and video is a hobby of mine. That no more makes me a perv than carrying a gun makes me a psycho nut case. If you are stupid enough to shoot a drone flying through the neighborhood; make sure you keep bond money on you, and be prepared to lose your HCP.1 point
-
I ordered a Nano QX for $80 so I could learn to fly it before I bought a $500 quad and put my $400 GoPro on it… and crashed. But I can’t get the controller set-up right so I can even take off. So I’ll have to wait until I find a kid to set it up for me.1 point

Temperature wise I'd say it's right on the edge of spoilage, it's going to depend a lot on whether the carcass is in the sun or shade. Not sure how I would feel about eating something buzzards have been eating on though.1 point

Actually, weak chamber support was present on pretty much all earlier models. Without a doubt 40s&w was the caliber to be most concerned. I pretty much load 40s&w to bunny fart pressures, but I shoot all my 40s&w in factory barrels. I sometimes shoot 9mm in a Lone Wolf barrel but I have to be selective on which bullets to load because the lonewolf barrel has a tight chamber and throat. Most 115 gr bullets with a short OAL feed fine. I have shot plenty of lead through factory Glock barrels.1 point

another thing about playtime investments is your taxes become a nightmare. If you are trying to day-trade them to flip for a profit a few times a day, you can quickly be looking at 200, 500 transactions to manage come tax time. You then get to total your losses and gains. And then you get to deal with the foreign investment rules if you went there. And so on. Its not hard, but it can be a lot to keep track of and deal with.1 point

I Would rather just have a fighting cane than fool with that. The sword canes in general are low quality weapons, slow to draw, with an awkward handle for swordplay. Even if you get one with a better blade, it will still suffer the handle/draw problem. If talking a healthy person carrying it as a disguised weapon, fighting stick upside the head is going to do as well. If talking actually handicapped, a sword might win out for someone too weak to get a good swing with the cane if you honed it razor sharp. In that case, I would prefer it to be a half sword, rather than a full length one, as a weaker person might not do well with a full sized blade.1 point

If only he could cut his calories this well. I'm sorry, I went there :D1 point

Payment sent! I was a bad boy and just couldn't wait to finish another AR, so I'm just sticking to the one, two-tone blade instead of getting one of each this time. Thanks!1 point

You will pass out long before the ATF comes to their senses. Personally if you get the ATF knocking at your door over a 922r violation you have royally screwed up somewhere. I have three Romanian guns and all have been perfect. There are a lot of issues cropping up with the Century C47 and RAS guns. The bolts, not the carriers, are mushrooming BAD. They had issues with carriers being too soft and the bolts are apparently soft too. They are also using a lot of cast parts that are supposed to be forged. Only time will tell with the cast parts but there are already some knowledgeable people chiming in saying they will fail.1 point

Picked up a bottle of this tonight. I really like it. Smooth and slow heat build up in the back of your throat and nose. Not sure if it is worth the extra over the Reserve but it is a nice sippin bourbon.1 point

Actually, that Comp-Tac looks exactly like what I want. Thanks, tarheelbball! As I said, I have an inexpensive Tagua soft leather that has zero cant, and it has been VERY comfortable. No gouging whatsoever, lol. It's just impossible to reholster as it completely collapses when the gun is removed.1 point

Well, it's always something. If accurate info, I guess Serbia and US makers in particular will benefit for a while. - OS1 point

if im not mistaken,after watching a report on this,the only flaw in the 4473 the buyer filled out was where the buyer checked the this aint for me box,then crossed it out,and checked it is for me. someone signs that form saying this info is correct and true and if im lying i go to jail. the gunshop isnt there to determine if one lied or not, all they can do is validate the input. i realize this is part of a deep pocket lawsuit, but holding the shop responsible is like suing budweiser for getting a dui.... some frivolous ass ####. if its an outlandish obvious straw purchase, one would hope the shop would err on the side of caution and deny the app and kill the sale. ive never worked at a gun shop but i hope thats how it works....

This is made from 1/4" thick 1095 carbon steel and is a whopping 17" long with a blade length on 12". It has red oak scales and SS pins and lanyard hole. It's double acid etched. It's headed to the sheath maker tomorrow for a sheath exactly like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcgbXSCyAMo1 point

Understandable. I'd just call em up and try to get an estimated turnaround. Or you could just dump about 5 mags and burn some more of the finish off :rock:1 point

This is the most gun friendly SCOTUS we're likely to see for a generation. If good things can't come from this court, imagine how much luck we might have with a few Hillary appointed Justices added to the mix. I say taking well placed legal shots (no pun intended) now is an acceptable risk.1 point

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.1 point

I have the 2.0 and it's pretty good with most shorts I have. I'd be comfortable recommending it to someone. I'll have to check out the 3.0 if I ever get a new pistol.1 point

I'd check into the Alien Gear 3.0 holster. I owned the original version which was a crossbreed clone just like all the others and didn't care for it. I have a buddy that has the 2.0 and it's a much nicer holster. You can see the details on their site but they do away with the leather in favor or plastic and neoprene. He say's it's much more comfortable and has no long break in period. The 3.0 (which I just ordered) adds another layer of spring sheet metal or something like that to give it a little more rigidity. I think it also adds another layer of cushion. They are right at $50 shipped too with a lifetime warranty and you can swap out the kydex shell for free if you change guns.1 point

If they were going for the third grade look, they could have done it themselves. Heck it only took me 1 minute to come up with my third grade version.1 point
