  1. I'm shocked. Nashville wanted a liberal mayor and they got one. Give it a few years and it will be known as San Frannasville. It wasn't that many years ago Nashville was a pretty nice place.

  2. This was just the low hanging fruit. There are people actively working to get the fairgrounds shut down and sold off to their buddies in real estate development. Any dollars that they can shave off the operating revenues to make the fairgrounds look worse financially is of benefit to their plans. I expect to see other things get the boot too, or they'll use the lost gun show revenue as an excuse to raise the rates for everyone else, sending smaller events like the toy train show, or the bead show off to cheaper pastures. Then that revenue stream dries up. Wash-rinse-repeat. They won't stop until we have condos on that land.

  3. No one has addressed the real issue here, without Bill Goodmans, where can a fellow shopping plaza operator (that's mall ninja for you civilians) get his Chinese tacticrap, Pakistani knives and beef jerky?

  7. I quit drinking 35 years ago. I like to say it was for health reasons..........................My 2nd wife told me " If I came home drunk again she would kill me". I taught her to shoot, enough said.

  9. Sounds like a red herring to me.  As one "famous" commentator often says "Follow the money..."  That's what this is all about.  Metro government (and the real-estate developers) want the $$$ that redevelopment of the fairgrounds will provide.  Charging a substantial parking fee didn't discourage people.  Allowing income producing activities to operate there isn't supporting this plan either.  Plus they have financed expensive convention facilities that need paying activities to meet the bills.   If you don't like what Nashville is becoming spending your money outside "Metropolitan Nashville/Davidson County" is the most powerful protest you can make.  I recall very well when Nashville had a total hold on retail.  Remember when Church Street was the place?  Then the malls, several of which are about ghost towns today or have been converted to office/medical facilities.   With the development of retail/restaurants/etc. in the surrounding counties Metro Nashville is no longer the 8,000 pound gorilla that they still see themselves to be.

  11. This could be a good thing. I was never a fan of the location, and I'm sure they'll find another venue rather quickly.

  12. Today is the first day in over a week we've had temps above freezing- might see 33* today, lows have been 0-2. Accumulated about 6-8" of snow over the last 10 days or so as well but the wind is clearing it out. 50+ mph gusts today. So it's raining, you said? :lol:

  14. All legalities aside, I highly doubt any owner of a CNC mill will make time for you. Having run one for many years, I know first hand they stay running all the time. If they aren't making chips, they are costing the company money. Billing out anywhere from $100/hr to over $500/hr depending on the job and complexity, they don't have time for piddly little trifles. One shop I worked had a five axis machine that billed out more in an hour than I made after taxes in a week AND this was over 10 years ago.

  16. If Bill Goodman doesn't mind coming to Dickson, I've got a 60,000 sq ft warehouse that I would love to put him in. If anybody knows how to contact them, I'd be interested. I've actually thought of doing a gun show myself but don't even know where to get started.

  17. Everybody but liberal politicians and mainstream media's already pinged on the fact the entire clock incident was staged. I like the fifteen million dollars demand and written letters of apology to. Karma...it has an intresting way of manifesting itself.

  20. Well, he texted me the gun was in stock and price and asked if I wanted it and all I replied was "yes". So I didn't really officially order it, I just yes'd it.

  21. If you didn't like going that's fine but RK and Goodman wouldn't be there unless some money was to be made. Our city just cut off a bunch of small businesses and got another win for the anti-gun crowd. I don't see the excitment.   Yeah, I know the city hates the fairgrounds and gun shows and wants to develop the area. At the rate of welfare benefits being handed out I wouldn't be surprised to see govt. housing planned for this area, then they can cover up whats really underneath the surface.

  24. If gun shows had anything worth going for, I'd be upset about this.  But as it stands, this is like getting upset that banks have less people working as tellers when the ATM works just fine.

  32. My Santa shops this early ... My wife is always saying there isn't a "safe" way to combine two particular interests of mine ... guns and bourbon/whiskey. Well Santa had the right answer with his gift: whiskey bullets! And also a credit card survival tool I had mentioned in a thread some time back. I couldn't be more pleased with my Santa. He did a great job!! :) thank you!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  34. Clearly this matches me well. As for Monkey, sadly someone beat me to Yukon Cornelius for him. Given the fact that they're long lost brothers. LOL Also, I secretly wanted to use this one for myself because I laughed so hard I almost died.

  41. Lol! Do you reload? If I had any spare time right now and the rain was keeping me at bay, that's what I'd do. Between church and 60-65 hr work weeks, I only notice the rain while I'm driving from place to place!

  42. At around $40 a pop for good stripped lowers what is the appeal of the 80% lowers?  I could understand it if lowers were $400 again but last time I looked at 80% lowers they were more than complete ones.

  43. We got to play with a few, I had a AK underfolder and a Dragunov with whole cans full of ammo for them. We even came upon one of these: Probably ended up at some Spec Ops HQ or another at Ft Bragg.

  44. The Glock 42 was my introduction to the world of pocketing carrying. My recipe for success has been a Nemesis DeSantis holster, Trijicon HD night sights, Ghost Inc Edge connector to reduce the trigger pull from 9 LBS to 5 LBS, + Federal HST's. When I am not pocket carrying the G42, I have a G43 that I AIWB in a T.Rex Arms Sidecar appendix rig. Like my G42, I have Trijicon HD night sights + Federal HST's in my magazines + in the tube. At some point in the near future, I will purchase Ruger LCP. Ladies + gentlemen, my EDC. G42 or G43 + Benchmade Griptilian x SureFire Titan Plus

  46. Guys,   Let me say something here, I honestley have one of the best jobs on this Earth and work for an Outstanding Company, they handled this great and if you all knew what I went through working in Africa with my previous companies, you would understand why this honestley did not scare me, I have been pulled over in a car in 2005 with my agent by a group of soldiers with a 10 year old with a Fully Auto AK47 aimed at my face, that my friends is Scary, I told my company, they said that is just the way it is     What just happened to me I was at the wrong place at the wrong time, my current company was NOT at fault for this just like I was NOT   I posted what I posted as I was pissed off at the World, please do not worry about me, I always work in safe countries these days, that was fluke incident that should never happen again,   I sincerely thank all of you for your concerns and if you want to show your support, Please buy yourself a TGO Pro Tech Magic knife, I assure you that you will love it!
