  3. 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

  4. 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.

  6. 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.

  11. 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.

  13. 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

  15. 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.

  18. 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?

  21. 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....

  22.   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.

  23. 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.

  24. Me and the GF love exploring new places. We have been to quite a few places so far this summer! Here's a few from this past summer. Roswell Mill- Roswell, GA Tallugha Gorge Sweetwater Creek Natchez Trace Bridge I was wondering if anybody had any recommendations for good places around here? I would really like to find some old abandoned buildings/houses in the woods to go explore. I found these on Instagram that are supposedly around Nashville. Does anybody know where these are?

  25. 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

  31. 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.

  33. 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.

  34. 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!

  35. On my property I'm not going to turn my back or hide inside while someone is out there who has made it clear his intent to do me harm. I want him where I can see him and shoot him if decides to make good on his threat. I know enough to know that aggressors are emboldened by their victims fleeing. I'll not fault the victim here. He was on his property where he had a right to be. The aggressor could have ended it by simply leaving and moving on. The victim did that by going to his own dwelling. Once there, it changes the calculus of the scenario. The victim would not have been in the wrong to shoot this guy in the face. I would not have shown such restraint.

  36. 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.

  37. 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

  42.   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.

  44. 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:

  45.   TN law doesn't say any such thing. Firing your weapon into the air or ground and using deadly force are certainly not the same thing.   " "Deadly force" means force that is intended or known by the defendant to cause or, in the manner of its use or intended use, is capable of causing death or serious bodily injury "   Even unjustified intimidation with a firearm, which can be aggravated assault, does not rise to the level of using deadly force. Which would be the difference between that and attempted murder.   - OS

  46. 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.

  47. 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. Let us know what we can do to help! Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk
