I went with the Legion!

A Shield or a Glock 43x. Yeah, I know...I'm being a jerk. Just not been a fan of the 238/938 pistols. But as to your situation, check their site for all the various models and see what strikes your fancy.

If that's all they were doing, they wouldn't have stepped in anything.

Every dog question gets the same answer from me.........................adopt/rescue. If you live in the boonies, I don't recommend any type of hound though. If they get on the trail of something, you might not ever see them again.

I think you might like crossville or cookeville.

Looks like 7.62X54R to me but not positive. I found this Click Here: Spam Can Guide

THE MOST EXPENSIVE ONE!!!

I think what this whole thing boils down to is that Benchmade is an apolitical company. And their refusal to take a side alienates their customer base. Now, they are trying to do damage control but still without being political. There have been a lot of people that have said that they aren't a gun company so who cares but knives are every bit as much a 2A issue as guns are. These things are deeply interconnected. What affects one will eventually affect the other. If they want to win back their customers, the right thing to do is own the political contributions and be honest about government contracts or pushing bills and then admit that they were wrong about the gun thing. But they won't.

While I'd welcome CC in Tennessee, I still want to keep my HCP, so I can carry outside of the State, while on vacation.

Well, Dante joined the family on Sunday! We start training with him in a few weeks. Great little guy... now if he would just learn to go to the bathroom outside.

Just thought I would post a picture of my Rescue dog. I kind of think we rescued each other. . I don't know who owned here before but she is very well trained and I began learning this by accident. I was messing with her one day and I said I have to sit down and she sat down. Then I tried lay down and she laid down and I said roll over and she rolled over. She loves to play fetch both on dry ground and at the lake . I sure there are many of you that remmember the story behind my reason for getting her as many many folks here helped me in a time of need when I lost my Kasey and many of yall, contributed to allow me to have Kasey Cremated. At that time in my life I didn't know if I could take care of another dog so I decided to give it some thought. Well the house was empty with out Kasey begging for snacks or wanting to go out so I thought it won't hurt to look at some rescue dogs and I did look at probably 50+ dogs and they were probably all great dogs but I had just not felt it was the right one till one of the girls brought Darby to the visiting room . I knew in about 1 minute that this was the one going home with me . We visited for about 15 minutes and it took a few minutes to get her to more attentive to me and then even show signs of warming up to me . It about 10 minutes she was in my lap and the girls that brought her into the room where satnding behind the glass and 2 of them was crying. I told them to get me a collar for her. She was going home with me and it was only then that I learned she was scheduled to be put down in 3 days. She had been at another rescue center for 6 months before being transfered to this one and she was on her 87th day there and their policy is 90 days if they transfer in from another facility. So she saved me and I saved her. Her bed is a Twin size memory foam Matress and i just added the old comforter and threw Kaseys old one in a box after washing it so it is stored.

Ginger is a rescue. She's small but I wouldn't want to tangle with her if someone came after my wife or myself. Sweetest and most protective dog I've had other than a couple of Malamutes. Kinda scary when she yawns. She truly thinks she's a Doberman.

I just put a Powder River Precision drop in trigger in my XDM and it made one heck of a difference. I need to take it to the range and see how it feels.

Didn’t know where else to put this. Feel free to move it if you want. I’ve been in TN one year. I’m probably not going to change your mind, but thought I would offer some perspective from observations in the classifieds. I an astonished at the number of ads that require bills of sale. There is even one that says he will take a picture of my ID if I purchase from him. No. Hell no. If I were to buy from you, we would exchange phone numbers. You would also see my car when we meet and see what I look like. You could write my plate number down and even take a picture if you desired, but I would think that was weird. I would probably also give you my name when we meet. You would have all the personal information you need. What does my signature and any other info do for you to protect you? It’s a rhetorical question Nothing. “But if it’s used in a crime, I will have proof I sold it.” True. That proof, which depending on circumstances, could be used AGAINST you. Saw it happen. Guy bought a gun that had been flipped a bunch on the boards. Beater P226. I saw that gun sold 6-7 times and almost ended up with it myself once. Required a BOS when he eventually sold it. Someone long before him reported it stolen. Current owner got caught and didn’t know. BOS seller and current owner both ended up getting arrested (he also gave a copy to the buyer, if I recall). Story is long and I’m leaving out tons of details, but the BOS was proof he possessed and sold a stolen gun. I’ve had two guns come up in skip traces and had visits from ATF as a result of them getting flipped to someone in California. I didn’t provide names or info of the guys I sold to. I just knew I didn’t have the guns anymore (and so did the ATF, obviously). They made their threats for info and I called their bull####. My only obligation was to not have reasonable suspicion that the buyer wasn’t from AZ and I made everyone I didn’t know do an ID flash (and looked at state of license plate), which was sufficient. Anyhow, if you’re a BOSer, consider getting rid of the BOS requirement. I won’t ever have the pleasure of meeting you otherwise. It’s nice being free and not being required to fill out paperwork to meet someone face to face to exchange money for a tool with a serial number. We have enough BS from our gov’t in this state. We don’t need to impose unnecessary BS on ourselves.

Happy to hear you didn’t ask for one of those awful rainbow things.

You have to agree with a company’s politics? Don’t some of you guys buy commie made guns?

To be exact it is 7.62x54r, light ball steel core. The silver paint also indicates this and the rounds may, or may not have silver tipped (paint) bullets. The ammo was manufactured in 1972 at the Soviet Frunze factory.

It is 54R.

My grandpa had a boxer named Chief. A dozen or more grandkids would ride him, pull his ears, tail, feet, tongue and probably a few more body parts. He played football with us. Nobody that didn't know him got out of the car when they drove up. They waited for Pop to come to the car.

I'm happy to hear of your good CS experience. (Though maybe better to not have needed it in the first place...) Whatever you choose, enjoy your new pistol!

That is great service. Wonder if they realize how many people they have affected in their next weapon buying decision, just on this forum alone.

I honestly like the Rose gold! I always really fancied looking like Nicholas cage from Face Off!!

That's awesome! I would go SAS, Emperor Scorpion, or LEGION if they would actually do it.

Regarding not wanting to go the rescue option, there are some rescues that also have puppies available that wouldn't come with the typical "baggage" of older dogs. My wife and I mainly do puppy fostering for the group linked below. The link should take you to the browse dogs pages. I did a quick scan and there are numerous puppies currently available. There are currently 3 pages of dogs to browse. New dogs are being continually added so check back often. The individual dog's bio will tell if they are currently available for adoption. If you really take to a dog and it says, "adoption pending" you can still apply to adopt since the pending adoption might not go through. https://www.proverbs1210rescue.org/animals/browse?Species=Dog

Well Sig got back to me, I must say awesome customer service. Long story short, gun is not repairable, so I can choose any P238 they have!! Which one would you get ?

As much as I like my Shield, the 43x gets my attention when I see in on the shelf.

Control freaks gonna control. RINO's really are a huge problem in our state.

Look between it and the guys. It looks like a stretcher built out of poles.

Saving Private Ryan was the last movie I didn’t get bent out of shape over guns.

Todd you are definitely a man of your word! Thank you sir!!

They destroy drugs because their very existence is illegal, although again, that shouldn't be. They sell off everything else. They don't destroy anything because its a source of revenue for them. Seized property auctions are common and I've attended a few. As for cars, I would prefer that cars never be crushed for any reason. I'd prefer for people to bring them back to life and give them the love they deserve. But that doesnt happen for myriad reasons. So then the cars pile up in junkyards. No-one is going to bring them back. So they are crushed. The big difference between guns and cars is that while people aren't clamoring for that Chrysler K-car, they would line up to buy even the cheapest piece of junk gun to throw in their safe. There is no shortage of buyers. So there is NO reason to destroy a gun, policy or not.

Cutting up guns is legal. So is not buying another Benchmade knife.

Would you confiscate your neighbor's gun if asked? For the right price of course.

So you have to clear a jamb every time, send the pistol back. As far as the wear let Sig do something about it.

I bet they wish that sheriff’s department hadn’t posted those pictures to social media...

You can have mine, I'll never buy or trade for one ever again.

Don’t own one, always thought they were overpriced. Have no intention of purchasing one at all.

For that, I’d wait until I was going over to Knoxville and take it to @LawEnforcementSalesTN. It’s a job that any competent smith should be able to do, but it’s one that’s easy to screw up, too. Nothing like a baffle strike because some fool threaded it off center.

Here you go, meet jack. He's already in Kingsport too anonymous photo sharing

Doberman, Boxer, Shepherd, Mastiff, Bull Terrier, .... or some mixture thereof. I'd also recommend a rescue. A friend raises/trains Malagators (Malinois) for service and K-9 duty. Properly trained, theyre awesome. All of his I've met are big pussycats until certain words are spoken (not in English) and then it's game on. The transformation is astonishing. But it takes a lot of training to get there.

Jackson.

Howdy and Welcome to TGO!!!

Welcome. I do most of my shooting anymore in Illiopolis.

Welcome to TGO!

Welcome aboard!

From Peoria IL myself. Enjoying TN a lot!

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.
