Maybe now they won't think about moving down here.

If you need to know this information you will be told, citizen.

You see - its all these Sharia/Salafist dudes that are starting to infiltrate. It is not done on accident - LE? Reservist? Project Manager for the electric grid? He is one of thousands. We have them working her on post. Driving delivery vans. Working baggage at the airport? Further more this will not gain traction in the legal system at all. A defense attorney will call him and upstanding citizen and that everyone is racist and islamaphobic. Too easy to cop out. This is only going to get worse. It is not foreign enemies we need to worry about - it is the Domestic ones... Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

90 days are over with. I got a 10% raise on Friday.   I was rather stoked.   We are hitting all of our growth targets as previously established. In addition I have cut the percentage of error from 3% to less than 1% on all entered work orders.                     And I have also become the go to guy for pricing guns. Nearly everyone in the company  is an outdoorsman. And apparently last year, they gave a rifle away at the Christmas party.    So I am pretty confident that I am where I belong. I am in a private company where I can talk one on one with the owner, who I report directly to, I get constant confirmation that I am doing a good job, and everyone else enjoys the same hobbies as I do.   Oh, and I am making more than I was at DPSG, by a large percentage.

Strange, I am a lifer and I hardly get anything from them.

Couple of days ago received the mail packet in the mail from the NRA stating after 20+ years all dues packages are going up in early 2016.  I recently sent in my annual dues, so no big deal, and I had for some time now contemplated becoming a life member.    They do have the bargains by 2016 standards until December 31.  The notices within the package pointed me to this web site:    https://www.nra2016.org/SignIn   Here is the low down: 1-year dues will increase from $35 to $40 3-year dues will increase from $85 to $100 5-year dues will increase from $125 to $140 Life dues will increase from $1000 to $1500 Junior Life dues will increase from $550 to $750 Distinguished Life dues will increase from $375 to $750   In my mail packet and confirmed with the NRA link above, Life Memberships are on special again for $500.  I think its time, and I am going to use Paypal to pay!  Just to annoy the Paypal folks!  I guess I will later work on Patron or Benefactors level later in life.  I think I will pull the trigger on Nov. 11th.  Just in honor of some folks I know.

Funnily enough, your sentiments reflects the intentions of my initial comment. No joke.  :tough:

They've never had an original thought, they are scared because they were told to be.

    I couldn't have said it better myself although I'm sure there will be someone that comes along soon and tells us there's nothing to see here and move on.

Because they are idiots, any other excuse I will reject.

Just an update.   My sister got to meet Rachel and pick up her gun from Fighting Sheepdog.  Their price on transfer was exactly as quoted here BUT the time they were willing to spend with her showing her how to break down and clean her new gun was priceless.  I expect you have made a customer for life for your kindness and caretaking of her purchase.   Thank you for taking care of my sis.  We've already been to the range and she loves her new gun.   J.

Worked till noon. Now heading out for my first time using a muzzle loader ever

Anyone else here tried the JD Single Barrel Barrel Proof yet? I found a bottle and bought it. Mine was 128 proof and holy cow udders is it hot. I prefer my bourbon around 100 proof, but have drank Elijah Craig barrel proof up to 140 and it doesn't seem as hot as the JDBP. Anyway, it's been open about a week now so I need to revisit it. If anyone around the Nashville area wants to sample before they purchase their own I'm happy to share. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I do love silly statements like this. It's what makes the "caliber war" threads so entertaining. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

All we can do is form our opinion on what we have heard or read so far, until there's another side to this story I have to say the guy (potential victim), did a good thing by giving the rager a chance to live and sober up to contemplate what "almost" happened, like he be dead instead of alive. Popping a handgun round in the ground? Unless you hit an angled piece of granite it's not really going anywhere. The Rager ought to thank him later on for sparing his life, at least his momma should thank him.

  So that's the only reason you're not a Benefactor, right?   - OS

So does this mean they will be releasing some of the 92 bazillion rounds of 40 call ammo they bought last year? It's surplus now, so we should be able to pick it up cheap. Right?

I would hope so. I'd like to get a 20 but the grooves are in the wrong place for people with large hands. My fingers rest mostly on the ridges. :shrug:

Should have driven to the police station. I have no issues with him firing warning shots, or even killing this lunatic with the bat, but don't drive back to your house. You don't want someone like that to know where you live. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Y'all are using the wrong system. Mine tells me when misty or Sabrina are on stage at "The catch", and when Deja Vu is having a 2 for one special. Also sends an alert when 556 brass ammo price drops below 275.00 per 1000....

  We can't know how he felt, maybe he was trying anything to keep from killing him first. No good deed goes unpunished, I would bring that up at a Mt. Juliet town meeting, I would advise someone not try to stop a life threatening situation by warning someone, just go ahead and kill them.

Please allow me to introduce myself, I am the Dispatch Manager and Software Integration Specialist for Dauenhauer Plumbing. The largest privately owned plumbing company in the state of Kentucky.   I accepted the position this morning. It is a raise, and a promotion from where I was. It is a more relaxed atmosphere and I will be instrumental in big changes at the company. I will be helping select the new software and phone system, participating in the construction and layout of a new building for my department and then training my department in the best way to do the job. After that I will be on the continuous lookout for new software and technological advances to keep my company on the cutting edge of the plumbing industry as technology leaders.   The statement was "We knew where we needed to be, we had no idea how to get there, then you walked in the door as the solution to everything we needed.

I was going to respond in another thread in this section, but in keeping with its culture of obfuscation, just noticed that ATF website has been totally "revised" again.   Meaning, lots of the FAQs that were previously there have been severely abridged, and all the links I had saved now either are dead, or point to the much more incomplete ones now.   Notably, the main NFA FAQ used to be three times longer, and even what is there is only partially correct, as in "true but incomplete" as far as the answers.   A few of the more detailed Q/A I had pasted as text files are simply omitted now, so you can no longer point to them. Case in point was about notification about removing firearms from NFA purview either temporarily or permanently, retention of parts preventing that, etc.   They seem to do this sort of thing every couple or three years for no good reason other than make everyone's links invalid, and also simply zap information that was previously there.   Good ole ATF, not only doing badly what need not be done at all, but keeping folks in the dark about just what the law is to boot, or even their take on it anyway.   - OS

That Elijah Craig is my favorite. Jack is good, but it has always been harsher than most. Seem to always have to put it on the rocks or with a little water. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

They're playing games with me again! lol. I went out pretty late this afternoon. I parked my truck by the barn and walked about 3/4 of the way up a large wooded hill on our land. I just sat down at the base of some trees and watched a well used trail. At the end of legal shooting light, I stood up and quietly walked back down the hill. As I reached the bottom, was still enough light for me to see the 2 fat does feeding just 30yds in front of my truck. I guess I could have just sat in the tuck lol They're playin' with me I tell ya :rofl: If was past legal shooting time and not a safe shot angle with the road anyway, so they won this round.

It took me by complete surprise honestly. I think I might go buy that Jackson Dinky I have had my eye on to celebrate. My wife is even encouraging it. Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk

One of my kids were scared of the stuffed animals there when he was small. The other one didn't like the singing animal band. Neither have ever complained of a gun display anywhere. :shrug:   Why any adult would fear an inanimate object is beyond my comprehension.

  That's high praise.  I appreciate that!

Good luck! If you find more than you want, let us in on the secret.

Good luck.

One thing I forgot to add in my previous post was the pillow cases or white sheets. Once your meat is completely done and you are going to leave it hanging till used you may want to wrap each piece of meat in a pillow case or cut up white sheet to keep the flies from laying eggs in the meat come warm weather.

   Your secret's safe. Been there a few times too, lol. Those shots make me feel like I'm slackin' during my practice. Amazing stuff   Me too :rofl: reminds me of a bobcat I know, lol.

I like what makes my life easier.   I don't really care what David (still want to call you Tungsten :) ) changes the payment plan too as I am already a life member but paypal hooked up to a CC I have makes life a lot simpler sometimes.  I pay what I pay and get the points for using the card.   I'd vote ( given the option ) for whatever is best for the website financially.    Paypal is easy to use, if given the choice of it on purchases I choose that option everytime.

My friend and I are stalking our favorite liquor store where we spend too much money. We literally purchased 8 bottles of bourbon. Our area isn't even expected to get VanWinkle this year which bums me out because if love to buy it for the big guy. This week I grabbed him a bottle of Larceny (it looked cool). A bottle of Beer Barrel Bourbon and Traverse City Bourbon (I'm a Michigander so gotta support the home teams) and a bottle of knob creek single barrel selected by the store. He has to be careful with the KC, last time he had that, there was an "incident" involving steps. LOL I really just like finding new and interesting ones. I stared at several bottles of the Michters. Now I know it's safe to buy it. Thanks!

Dan Wesson is 70 series and internal extractor. For the record, Springfield actually has an extra "safety" with the ILS(internal locking system) in the mainspring housing which actually has specific springs not standard to the 1911, also the mainspring is sprung heavier in Springfields due to this. No hate for Springfield though, I love the ones I have.

Agree 100%. We've heard him sing a few times before he exploded on to the scene and he definitely deserves all the love he is getting right now. His entire album is awesome. Not a single song on that album that I can't listen to over and over again. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

I chose Paypal and then realized I have a lifetime membership, changed it to no preference.  I really like the ease and security of Paypal for web payments though

I dislike finger grooves on anything. If you really want them, you can add them with a Hogue grip, but you can't get rid of them without a very costly frame mod.

Not a Video but I found it rather amusing about deer hunting............ :up: [URL=http://s218.photobucket.com/user/softbaitmaker/media/Misc/Deertalkingtocop_zps54567ac2.jpg.html][/URL]

My company rented out the IMAX theater in Cool Springs for the release. That is all  :rock:

  Heck, S&W created the .40 in collaboration with the FBI as a direct result of the Miami shootout because the agency wanted to blame the 9mm for the tragedy and some of their agents couldn't handle 10mm.  I don't know, however, if this is so much about not being able to handle the .40 as it is about modern 9mm ammo being every bit as good performance wise with less recoil and (although I didn't see it specifically mentioned) higher capacity in the same sized pistols.

  You must be mistaken. The alert system is run by the gubmint, so I know it works, A-OK, #1.

I shoot them all but recently I've been looking into underwood ammo and bought some of their 40SW gold dot 165 grain bonded. At 1200 fps and 568 ft pounds of energy it is smoking hot out of my Steyr M40A1. But each of my self defense guns has a purpose and I use 9MM. 40SW 45ACP & 357 Magnum calibers in handguns. Like to feel that I'm an equal opportunity shooter!  :pleased:

Pretty cool shot ideas, and funny stuff in between for entertainment value :up:

Neat looking handle with the leather, etc. Next time, instead of a rake handle, look at Home Depot for one of those 'industrial' type push broom handles. My local HD has them in two thicknesses. I got the thicker one to make (yet another) walking staff out of (got the idea from a video on youtube by preparedmind101) and it is pretty beefy. They also sell wooden dowels that are even thicker than those. Imagine a good, strong, thick wooden shaft with a 'knob' style handle rather than a crosspiece handle. Make the knob handle by taking one of those sort of decorative (as in closed/domed at the top) lug nuts intended for use on a semi, threading the top of the shaft to screw into it and epoxying it into place. You could go a little more 'stealth' by covering the lug nut and the section of shaft just below it in leather. I have also wondered about using a couple of pieces of the thicker walled PVC pipe - maybe in 3/4 inch or even 1 inch - and filling the pipe with some kind of lightweight resin, epoxy or something like that. PVC pipe will apparently get soft and allow you to shape it much like kydex if you heat it (although you have to be careful as PVC pipe reportedly gives off fumes that are somewhat toxic when heated so you'd want to do it outdoors and wear a mask.) I'm thinking that a simple crook or even something a little more decorative could be created for the handle by slightly heating, bending (or shaping) the PVC before filling with the resin, epoxy or whatever. You could also heat and twist the shaft, etc. for an interesting look. Then the whole thing could be painted with whatever paint scheme one wanted - a camo pattern (something like a Mossy Oak hunting camo pattern might be fun), a theme to match your favorite sports team, flowers and peace signs or whatever. A really skilled hand might even paint it to look like wood, at least to a passing glance. I wonder if it couldn't even be dipped using one of those water soluble 'decal' type kits. At any rate, I'm thinking that if the epoxy, resin or whatever was used to fill the PVC pipe were sturdy enough it might be sort of a 'poor man's' (I prefer 'do it yourselfer's) version of that Cold Steel walking stick I linked to in my last post.

My 0.02, you messed up and got caught. Now for the good news, this will be the best move of your life, things cant do anything but get better. Praying for good things.

The question I would have is whether management knew of any of the other sales as a part of their investigation where the person was not fired today as a result. Consistency matters in Human Resources - especially when it comes to terminations. If it turns out they were selective, I might be inclined to discuss it with counsel.

I should rectify that wording on our website. We handle 100% of the paperwork for you and most of the larger companies (Buds, AIM, Palmetto, too name a few) already have our FFL on file, so they'll ship right away with zero need to wait on anything from us. Our transfer fee is $10 for the firearm and $10 for the background check. And yes, this is Rachel and I'm happy to have our on-site gunsmith available to show her how to break down and clean her first firearm at no additional charge while she's here.
