So A fellow TGOer and I have sort of been putting together separate collections of military surplus rifles. Collectively, we account for many of the more common designs. Thought I'd show a few pictures of my two favorites in my collection. I may put up some pictures of my M1 Carbine later. I am currently bidding on an FN49 on gunbroker, which had the potential of being competition to the Garand, had Germany not invaded Belgium and delayed the rifle development. Feel free to post pictures of your WW2 era semi auto rifle. Anyone have a G43 here!? I know someone has a 41 Johnson Automatic! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk7 points

I see them like that all the time. I've seen them run a long time with no issues. I've seen them blow out at the most inopportune of times. Is it gonna be okay to drive on? Flip a coin. It either will or it won't. The BETTER question, what's the cost of a tire? If you like 50/50 odds then bet your life on it...bet other people's lives on it. Tires aren't important...until they are. Tires seem expensive...until they're really not by comparison.4 points

I think that is the way I am leaning. I will just use the money I would have spent on the truck and buy more bourbon and guns. :up:4 points

It appears to me that the statement "it went off while I was cleaning it" is usually a lie to cover the fact that someone pulled the trigger while playing with the gun. Just my opinion.4 points

http://clarksvillenow.com/local/cpd-detective-catches-man-impersonating-an-officer-in-golden-corral-edit/ Reppin' the hometown this fine individual thought he was going to get a free drink by flashing his badge. As karma would have it one our resident CPD detectives was there and overheard him, and bagged him for impersonating an officer. I know we usually rag on guys/gals with their HCP "badges" but this was STUPID...granted he IS from Kentucky lol. The news article was written as if the badge was a common item...play stupid games win stupid prizes Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk3 points

Why does everyone keep asking for advice on where to get things done? We can fix anything with a TGO meet and free booze. Problem solved.3 points

A J-Frame Smith either OWB or pocket carry. I have had several of my fellow HCP holders explain to me that I stand no chance against the ISIS battle group that inevitably assaults my neighborhood Walmart. Whereas, they with their neato double column semi-autos will be able to save the day by taking out the entire ISIS organization with two extra magazines of 9MM. This is based on their combat experience at some neat school at some pistol range. I spent a total of 60 months in combat in VietNam (4 Tours) with the USMC so I am in no position to question their superior logic. I only need 5 shots to shoot the dumb SOB that goes looking for me and finds my hiding place.3 points

If you are under 40, enjoy and modify and do what you want, its only money and have fun. If you are over 40, keep it OEM, use the money for other purposes. OEM to me is the only way to go. I modified too many things when I was young, its no longer a draw card to me. The art of getting old.3 points

Setting up a gear set properly takes knowledge and experience. A lot of guys just take it out and reuse the old shims with the new one, but to actually do it right is a bit trickier. Take it to a pro.2 points

Unless you have somebody to help you that's worked on diffs before , I would let a mechanic tackle it. While it looks like a simple pull and swap, you may need to shim and clock it.2 points

Couldn't see directions on my phone... but if it's like all the others it's not a big deal. Any decent shop can handle that sort of thing, race shops do that kinda stuff all the time Only advice I have is to steer clear of 4 Wheel Parts!2 points

....and regulations are far less onerous. It's a multi faceted problem, and cheap labor definitely Is a part of it; but not all of it. Union labor is the lion's share of the problem. I don't feel for these folks at all. Sorry.2 points

Wow. Lotta info there... to be honest, I started out reading intently, but pretty quickly my eyes glazed over and I scrolled to the inevitable... problems with the gun. I hope it gets to working reliably for you. My very first .22 was a 597. After a few months of being terribly frustrated with it I unloaded the thing... then I got a 10/22. I'll never be without one again. I hope your story goes differently.2 points

Sam Henderson has invite all us TGO 1911 shooters to his match. 3rd Annual Uncle Sam's Single Stack Championship will be held June 25th at Brocks Gap Training Center. Brush the dust off that 1911 that you're "thinking about shooting one day", and join us. Fun frivolity, and BBQ. What more can you ask for? It's a great match down the road in Birmingham. They usually give away a couple guns. Lunch is BBQ from SAMs restaurant. Always good. It's always a sell out. I'll post more info when I get it.1 point

I can't speak of all sectors, but many of the farmhands (all legal) were paid the same wage as other farmhands. Same with many of the roofers, framers and many other construction workers I have spoken with.1 point

Edley's was rated really high online so I took an out of town friend there. It was really disappointing. The wife and I went to Jack's up by Trinity Lane. It was okay, but not a place I'd rave over. In short, I'd like to hear from others on TGO on best BBQ places as well.1 point

No, actually this specific guy has a video up on their FB page saying how important it is for people to pay their bills on time because he has had to stop training and move to three different gyms because they kept shutting down from running out of money. Wonder why?1 point

"So presumably, handgun carry permit owners will drop their pistols, along with their car keys and cell phones, in the Tupperware dishes outside the metal detectors on their way into the Plaza." Handling of loaded guns in public...who thinks this part can possibly be a good idea? - OS1 point

One of the best freakin' "new" artists I've heard in a long time... It's like 1960's Stax/Volt Memphis Soul sound all over again... In fact the album was recorded at the rebuilt Stax Studio, and man, did they nail "the sound". https://youtu.be/1iAYhQsQhSY https://youtu.be/AzqmVa6n-es1 point

I don't always pocket carry ( nor am I the most interesting man in the world or drink Dos Equis) but when I do.... I carry: Smith 351c with CT laser grip and trigger job loaded with 7 rounds of Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel + a speed strip. Replaced a 351 with a hammer, I no longer carry. Yeah I am a 22 mag revolver fan. Actually one of the most comfy and reliable options I have found, no recoil and decent round count. There is something about revolver that breeds confidence that it will simply work. I've put loads of rounds through this with no problems...unless you shoot maybe 50-60 rounds quickly and the cylinder gets a little hot...sometimes, not always, can start to have sticky extraction problems. Lets face it, that has no bearing on a DGU situation. Yeah I know you can diss the round but I'm thinking that in most social situations outside the house it will work. If I am at home and facing numbers, it just gets me to another option.1 point
