A. Did you know that before computers, people could do complex math equations with only pencil and paper? It's amazing! B. What about them? Not all radiation is harmful. C. The same way that the rest of the equipment and crew did. D. Crappy camera tech? E. You will go to your grave correct. The first man stepped foot on the moon in 1969, which is not the early 1960's.

I know I've said this often, but it probably bears repeating for newcomers and those in the back. We welcome all kinds of people on TGO. Our membership is as wide at the internet. But, we do have expectations. Beyond the code of conduct - I have a simple rule - our members should add something to this community and the conversations that happen here. This is not a uniform group - nor should you assume it to be. If you're going to participate in a discussion, you should bring something of value to it. To our newcomers - that also includes things like: Descriptive thread titles Using the search function to see if maybe there have been some other threads about a particular subject over the last 10 years Avoid over generalizations and blanket statements- For example, saying "I HATE liberals" for example may explain what makes you the way you are - but does little to add to the actual discussion. As you step into a new community, maybe take a look around and get a feel for things. Slow down a bit. Figure out where you can add value. Where do you have expertise? Contribute. There's a lot of drama in our world right now. We welcome new members to our community, but we don't have a ton of bandwidth if you're bringing drama with you...

Keep us in your prayers tomorrow boys. They cycled us out for the night. Fresh crew pulling the over night. We'll be back at it early tomorrow morning. There are crews coming in from everywhere. I'm hitting the shower and the bed.

A search for moonbat returns 31 results.

I'm more curious why someone from Colorado joins a forum based in Tennessee to try to convince their members that we NEVER landed on the moon.

I expect this is fake news. I don't believe there is any basis in TN law for issuing a "shoot on sight" order, and the liability risks involved would be phenomenal.

@Bersaguy was right......

Oh please don't.

Dixie Pawn in Newport. I never give what they are asking at a pawn shop I look at the price then usually offer around 75% of that, they take it way more often than not lol,

If your going to hit Buds, you also need to hit Smoky Mtn knife works next door. Their ammo prices are a bit better on some types and I saw the same on their guns for some models. The knife works has expanded their gun area enormously during the last 3 or 4 years.

I want to watch you tell Buzz it didn't happen. He usually doesn't take it to well.

He's been worth it!

As a NYer who moved down here I’d say your problems aren’t from transplants like myself. It’s gonna be the youth. I look at the stuff going on in Johnson City, liberal attitudes, gay pride parades, etc. it’s almost as bad as CA there. For myself, I bought land in the hills, built some AR pistols that I couldn’t own in NY, unpinned my stocks and put A2 birdcages back on. Rocking the standard mags and putting in for a few suppressors. I love this place.

Seriously, I'd recommend this book for anyone who's a fan or would like to learn more about these fascinating rifles. https://www.amazon.com/Collectors-Guide-Savage-Rifle-Predecessors/dp/0764350269/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1538509878&sr=1-1&keywords=David+Royal

But it's the crazy conspirators who get the best threads going ...

At least we knew what he thought about liberals. He had that refrain singing as often as Cato the Elder told the Roman Senate his thoughts on Carthage needing to be destroyed.

That describes my marriage some days......

After reading a few threads over on INGO, it looks like they're slow to ban. I'm going go with the fact this guy isn't a member under this name on RMGO (Rocky Mtn Gun Owners) and the only two places he's surfaced are here and INGO, and just cut bait. @MacGyver, I owe you a cup of coffee.

ascii porn over 600 bps baud. Those were the days...

I remember so much ascii art. I knew some guys that spent waaaayyy too much time making ones that involved very adult themes... Of course there was everything else too. And yes, I copied and pasted these as images...

Sometimes by the same person in 10 minute time span.

That was the one I wanted when I was a kid. Eventually wound up with a Speedmaster, and whined because it wasn't a Marlin.

This thread is so full of win!!!

You're fine. We just don't normally get this much entertainment. We normally argue about politics and talk about Greg's boat.

I'm impressed, but I really hope for your sake that you copy/pasted that from another source.

It's called a forum. Show me where in here that somebody has NOT posted a topic about firearms. I was simply trying to engage a conversation that was not about firearms. If I was out of line, I apologize.

I've noticed older quality collector guns such as Colts, Smith and Wessons, 99 Savages, Winchesters, Marlins, etc. haven't taken a hit.

Just got it and pics do not do justice!

The truth is out there!

You all do know 'weed' is legal in Colorado, right?

So many bourbons, so little time....

Guns that aren’t being made anymore and are in limited supply are holding their value. Guns in current production are readily available new at reasonable prices.

I know it's legal up there, but dang man.

Why does it seem like every 3-4 years we have some interesting character join TGO? I miss @bajabuc...

It’s a no name leather holster I picked up at Rural King, for $15 about a year ago. Has the hook on on the bottom that catches on the pocket as you pull it out. Works well!

Welcome to TGO, I think?

Yeah. I was telling somebody today that I may not live long enough to shoot all of my ammo. I have a few guns I haven't shot too.

Stinks, but at least you’re not waiting on hillary

This is what I like to refer to as a buying opportunity. Stock up! It will not stay this way.

Guaranteed.

Wish Marlin would bring back the Camp 9 and the Camp 45. They would sell a ton of them. Why they don't is beyond me.

It really is a buyers market. I’ve bought 4 guns in the last month. The election of Donald Trump created a massive relief on pent up pressure in the market. This has had positive and negative effects. I’m sure there are a bunch of folks who thought they had money invested in guns only to find out the return isn’t monetary. I just hope the industry players can weather the current market long enough to be there when we need them to lobby folks when things get tough again.

When I look at the classified here I can tell some folks have not gotten the memo that prices are down. If you're having to bump a thread 100 times and the gun hasn't sold, you've got it priced too high. Folks would be better off waiting until prices go back up rather than sell at a big discount now. Now, if you're not in a hurry, there is nothing wrong with staying firm on the price, just don't expect it to sell anytime soon. Now is definitely a good time to buy. I'd hate to be in a position where I HAD to sell though.

This shooting has been getting a lot of attention in Nashville - especially after the Jocques Clemmons shooting the year before. The particulars of this case seem to stem from how they stopped the car in the first place. Grand juries almost never indict an officer - so that in and of itself makes this significant.

I think you've realized just how suburban a good portion of TN has become. Everyone thinks we're real rural, but every year that's a little less true. We ain't cheek to jowl everywhere yet, but every year it's a little more.

I run suppressors on my guns and shoot at ar500 steel. My neighbors just wonder why I ring a bell some days and some nights.
