If you're willing to murder someone then a lifelong OOP is useless. OOP's are violated on a daily basis in this country. If he were to die from an acute case of lead poisoning after coming near you then I wouldn't convict you if I were on the jury. He's clearly a threat to you.

The sooner you stop believing that Republicans care about your natural rights, including the right to self-defense, the sooner you’ll stop being shocked when they don’t act in your benefit.

Thought about just using a fire pit from the local big box store? They’re generally big enough for months of household mail - and they’ve generally got screen covers that will keep your flaming bank statement from taking flight and burning down the neighborhood.

Tagged birds in Tennessee, Wyoming, South Dakota and Nebraska. Called in 18 birds to their death this year for me and other people. Blessed season! Osceola next year to finish my slam.

Typically, it's not reloaders. It's people that know there is a shortage so they buy everything they can get their hands on, then turn around and post them for sale with a "slight" mark up. Personally, I wish everyone would refuse to buy from those people and they would be stuck with all the crap they bought.

My usual response is "More than some, less than others. But generally speaking, not enough".

I like the motto "8 is great and can be lightweight "

Ohhhhhhh my........ The hives are in full flow right now! It was too hot to do any real harvesting today, but she collected 4 frames to make some room & harvested 11 pints of honey! We have around 30 more frames to harvest next weekend. VID_86300520_063544_247.mp4

I got this link in e-mail the other day from TFA. Makes for interesting reading and explains why this is NOT Constitutional Carry. But still, questions remain. For example, we know this law doesn't allow carry in parks or greenways, but where else is a person prohibited from carrying under this law? This new law goes into effect very soon. I fear confusion of what it actually means will be a real problem. https://tennesseefirearms.com/2021/06/tfas-analysis-of-governor-bill-lees-permitless-carry-law-and-why-to-avoid-it/

New to this site. I have filed a police report. Looking to broaden the search for some of my stolen guns from the Cookeville, TN area. Any help is greatly appreciated. 1,000.00 reward for any reliable information on any of these guns. 1. 1911 Para Ordnance .45 Serial Number P234636

It has arrived! Not run it yet, but I'll update as soon as I get range time. Just doing a function check gave me a massive freedom boner. Also ordered a t3 buffer at the same time.

I'm at a loss for words other than to say this pisses me off something awful.

I hate this too. Hope you've been doing well, Nikki.

I hate this and wish you the best. Maybe you can get some good news in court.

Got an Email from Apps Training that they are opening a new gun shop at 2611 Lebanon Pk. This would put it across from Green Police Supply/Shpeley Donuts. Looks like it may also be a range. Guess with Buford gone and Const. Carry they are branching out,did not get any other info on it. This is Donalson but GPS is Nashville. Will check it out next week.

That's a nice little gun Fujimo.

Meth fueled in-breeding. The creepy part is that it looks like the little girl on the bike has no legs and it looks like half of a baby in half of a baby crib all the way to the right. Might be because I’m looking at it on a phone. I dunno. Might be descendants of the Adams family. Or the family from Wrong Turn.

The fellow in the picture has an awfully big head. Bad photoshop?

Guns? No one here has guns

If I had that many guns I would never advertise it. Just asking for trouble. I've had friends ask before how many guns I have and I've lied.

Wow. That’s a lot of $$$ sitting there. That took some time to put together. I wouldn’t want to have to feed all those right now. However, with that kind of collection, I bet they have more ammo stored than any gun shop at the moment.

@GarufaThis has been a major headache but I'm watching JMS gutters install the new ones. I ended up calling 5 companies but only getting 3 quotes. JMS Gutters- $2,140 to get new 5" gutters, guards, and drip edge. My roof was missing any drip edge so this was important to add. East TN Continuous Guttering- $3,150 for same as above except they do 6" gutters. Daniel Hood Roofing- a shocking $4,700 for same as East TN guttering. Joe's Custom gutters. Never showed up for their appointment here to give me a quote and never called me back. Knoxville Gutter Solution-Same as Joe's. Never showed up. Hopefully this info helps you when you eventually go to replace yours. For reference, I have around 130 ft of gutters and 100ft of downspouts. We went with black gutters instead of white.

I bet there's one or two hiding in the smoker too.

Check with local farm/heavy equipment dealers. A 30 gallon grease or gear oil drum would be perfect for you.

A stainless drum out of an old washer makes a good burn barrel for what you are doing

If you can’t bring yourself to pay USGI prices, and just want something to shoot, you might consider the new Kahr / Auto Ordnance or a used Plainfield. Universal carbines run the gamut from OK to junk. The earlier models are better when they were still using lots of surplus parts. I’d avoid the later ones, mostly identifiable by the cutout on the operating rod. I personally avoid all of the Universal guns on principle but times being what they are, I might reconsider if I came across one cheap enough.

Some will say I'm being foolish...but I don't care. I know there are lovers of all God's wonderful creations here, and though it may be too late; I ask for a small prayer for the life of my very best friend and companion of 12 years...Molly. She's been having a few problems lately, and I won't go into them now. Let's just say we've devoted a lot of time and funds on her over the years, and I fear that her release from all this is near. It's been rough on her with injuries before. But the little trooper has never whined or cried out from her pain. Always a bright eye and a wagging tail for me at every moment. Well that's changed today. Molly hasn't moved unless absolutely forced to and has refused all forms of food, water, even her favorite...Greenies. That in and of itself doesn't sound all that bad, but coupled with the things I'm not saying...I'm extremely worried and fearful this afternoon. So if you could spare a moment for a prayer for her. Thank you brothers.

As I read all these comments and wishes and prayers offered, I am reminded once again why I spend so much time here. So many very good people! I thank you one and all for your prayers. Now to update the situation. Molly is much better, not perfect; but gaining a little strength everyday. Has begun to eat a bit more and is drinking water well. The lasting concern is her weight loss. Has been a solid 36/39 pounds for the last 5/6 years. She has dropped to 32 in the last few weeks. Fears of the C word and some elevated liver enzymes are here. I refuse to be pessimistic. But I understand her age and condition. Whatever comes our way, I know such a beautiful and loving spirit as she has will be waiting for us if she leaves before us to join her other friends gone before. God does not give such gifts as these to simply remove them forever from us. So again brothers...we thank you for all the prayers and beautiful messages. I will keep information coming as I get something to tell.

This fix will never work. Where's the duct tape and baling wire ...

When white box goes wrong. People love to hate White box but out of the thousands of rounds I've shot of it I've had one FTF, bad primer out of it.

I would probably risk getting shot.

Haha, true, had noticed as well. One reason I decided to pay the asking price for the 686 I bought. I figured it was a safe medium to stash those greenbacks in while the value of the USD hits terminal velocity. I could sell it today for what I paid.

Thanking God and you all for prayers! We see some improvement this morning. Molly has actually stood and walked out to potty. Drank some water nibbled on a few chopped bits a greenie. Not much, but first in 24 hours. Not saying all is perfect, but Molly is much better this morning.

Nice! I look to have 10 medium 8-frame supers full of honey this year. I have added one more super to the short hive ( it was a swarm I caught this year).

Welcome to the forums Melissa. A friend of mine moved from here in Southern Middle TN to Florida when he retired a few years ago. He sent me this link last yesterday:

The great thing about Tennessee, there’s lots and lots of water. Just make sure you’re not in the city limits anywhere, most cities frown on shooting, Mount Juliet has an ordinance no projectiles of any kind, BB gun, slingshot, arrow, firearm. However I have been told that there’s a judge in Lebanon that will give you a letter so you can hunt in Mount Juliet city limits.

Good hunting there Mr S! Thanks for sharing pics.

Looking forward to the pics when you complete your slam.

Nice birds Shaun.

Dandy birds. Congratulations.

I've got a 1967 vintage 10/22, serial # 103xxx with the original Mannlicher stock. It will run BX-25 and other clone magazines but using anything but the 10-round mags feels like sacrilege with that rifle.

The older 10/22 rifles had a push button for the mag release. Newer rifles all have a lever for the mag release. You can get varying lengths and designs for the mag release. Any 10/22 mag should fit and work in all generations of 10/22. The only exception that I'm aware of is the Thompson Center T/CR22 (10/22 clone) mags which incorporate a last round hold open when using the T/CR22 receiver. The T/CR22 can use standard 10/22 mags without the last round hold open. I've found that the 10-round Ruger mags to be the most reliable. I have a few BX-25 mags and they have been hit and miss. Surprisingly, the GSG 110-round mags have worked well for me if I load them to 100-rounds and take care to load them correctly. One of the most interesting 10/22 mags is from HC Mags. I have a couple of their HC3R Tac Packs (Gen 2) on order that should be here mid to late February: https://store1.hcmags.com/products/hc3r-tac-pac-gen-ii.html The stripper-clips allow you to load (and reload) an extended mag quickly. This way the spring in the mag doesn't loose tension by leaving it loaded all of the time. There is a plethora of options and accessories when it comes to 10/22 platform. It all depends on what you want to achieve and how much you willing to spend. I have several 10/22s that the only stock Ruger item on them is the 10-round Ruger mag. If you are going for precision, it's not hard to drop a couple of grand into a 10/22. If you just wanting a good plinker, you don't have to spend a lot. I do recommend either some trigger work or a drop in replacement. While they are far from cheap, I'm a big fan of the Kidd triggers. Another good (and less expensive) option on triggers is to send your existing trigger to Brimstone: http://brimstonegunsmithing.com/ Of course, you can always just learn to to do the trigger work yourself. The one thing I definitely would do to any stock Ruger 10/22 is install an auto bolt release. Rather than having to fiddle with the bolt lock to release the bolt, the auto bolt release allow you to slightly pull back on the charging handle and let go. It's well worth the small amount the part costs. Example (without shopping around) that I've used: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07R11VMDP/ Rather than buying the part, you can do a modification yourself: If you will provide an idea of how you plan to use the 10/22 or any goals you want to achieve (precision, defensive use, etc.) I can provide more suggestions.

Academy had small all types of primers on their website several days ago at Cookeville. But, it was wrong. I asked the guy at the counter about hem, when I couldn't find any. He looked at me like I was an alien, actually I get that a lot. He said they ain't had any in a long time. I said somebody needs to update website.

So, you awake now, them ropes to tight, lets talk about what you tried to do last night!

Cheap primers!!!

I just don't get the whole distressed look. Why make a brand new gun look like it was drug behind a truck?
