I picked up an Italian Police turned in Beretta 92S last year from Fasteddie. it shoots great, but being a service pistol, the frame was a little beat up. Also, I never really cared for the glossy black finish. Since I was already planning to cerakote an AR, and I had the Graphite Black, I did the lower frame. I think it turned out great. it needs new grips. And I will post again once they come in. I may go back and strip the slide and kote it at some point. Before After

Me too. He clearly planned it.

I merged all of your individual threads into a single one for ease of viewing and navigation. Good luck recovering your property.

Here is the 92S with new grips.

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.

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

Edible wild plants class Aug 31 @1:00CST. Be prepared to be outside in the heat and bugs for 3 hours, we will also hike a mile or so. Class size will be limited to 15.

If you gave the law enforcement agency the serial numbers to all stolen firearms they should have been entered stolen into NCIC. If any law enforcement run the number it would show stolen, the agency that entered it, and some other minor information. If you have a copy of your report make sure the serial numbers on the report also see if it says they were entered. As a detective the first thing I do with a case like this is check to ensure the reporting officers had the serial numbered entered into NCIC. Most times they do but there are times it doesn't happen and I have to make sure it gets done.

Barnaby Jones?

I like this idea! I should have thought of that! But I', a bit on the slow side these days. lol Thanks.

Was out on Watts Bar last night caught 15 bluecats and this was the biggest of the night.

I have never trapped and have no desire to start. I would however be fine with hunting coyote and bobcat on a more regular basis. I just wish decent quality thermal optics were not so expensive. I just can't justify the cost. Night hunts would be far more successful and enjoyable.

MODERATORS: I have a 1911 that was stolen years ago, that has great sentimental value. I posted it on stolengunz and got a hit on it but metro PD detective was flat out lazy and didnt pursue it. Do we have a stolen guns topic on here? Do you think we could/should?

38/357 has always been my go too EDC. Others are as good, but my choice is the 357 for self defense. I have several 9 MM and 40's but always gravitate to my 7 shooter. It will be making the trip with me out West come Saturday morning. Only 2 states, California and Oregon, that does not recognize my CCP. I will be forced to put my "Roscoe" in the under seat gun vault and lock it away in those two states unloaded. Will also be taking a residence pistol and keep it in my RV. I have a lockable gun vault in it also. Probably take my 9MM M P 2.0 C.

I was wondering the same thing.

How was he not convicted of First Degree Murder, to begin with? Should be in prison for the rest of his life. But I agree, these letters, by themselves are threat enough, to warrant any time off for good behavior. TDOC needs to step up and do their job. This guy should serve the rest of his sentence...

Great job!!! I like it!!!

Sounds a bit like the old Steak and Ale franchises ...

I hate liars and thieves. I'll keep an eye out.

I am pulling some of my frames on Sunday. Probably 48-56 medium frames worth. The rest I will get mid July. I will give an update Sunday evening.

If you want to start learning, go to www.nashbee.org. That is the site for NABA (Nashville Area Beekeepers Association). There is a lot of information on the site. They have monthly meetings with speakers on different topics that usually align with what is happening with one’s hives at that time. It has been virtual since last March but the July meeting might be the first back to in-person.

Find your local bee keepers group, they'll have all the info you need. They'll probably let you help them and learn what to do.

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.

Now this is a TURKEY HUNTER, bar none, big CONGRATULATIONS!!!

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.

Nice Shaun!!

Yes, and that first burn should be spectacular as well ...

I don't use either site. Sad this happened, but they can do what they want. Its the liberal view of Freedom of Speech.

In answer to your question about why he was not convicted for 1st degree murder. It was a bench trial (Judge only), no jury. The murderer got to choose that. Liberal Davidson County Judge Seth Norman heard this case. Mental health experts were brought in for both the defense and prosecution. Both testified they believe he has delusional disorder. The defense mental health expert testified she did not believe he was capable of premeditation. The prosecution's expert didn't push back very hard and basically left it up to the Judge to decide if that is true based on the evidence. Here was just some of the evidence. This man had actually gone downtown first, looking for us that night. When he couldn’t find us, he asked acquaintances where he could find us and he got directions to the restaurant. These acquaintances at multiple karaoke venues downtown noticed that when he left, he hadn’t drank any of his beer. The beer bottle he left at each place was still full. I think it’s clear he was there specifically waiting for us. He wasn’t there to have a few beers and a good time. He then drove 30 minutes that night to where we were. I had never seen him at this venue before. I was concerned he was stalking me when I noticed him there. I discreetly asked management to remove him and let them know he was stalking me. When they approached him and asked him to leave, he was looking around the room (I assume he was looking for me but I was beside a brick wall, where I could see him but he had no clue where I was), he then shot Ben 7 times. When the police searched his vehicle at the crime scene, they found 2 more guns, ammunition, a baseball bat, binoculars, gloves rope and a knife. Police made note that my stalker made a number of physical preparations that very day. He purchased the shoulder holster, binoculars and baseball bat that day. The Judge dropped it from 1st degree to 2nd degree despite that kind of evidence. That Judge is well into his 80's now and retired. He has left me facing an incredibly dangerous situation in my future.

Ummm, old washing machines maybe?

I took one out of a washer that was too expensive to repair before it went to the scrap yard. But this is East TN, surely you know someone that has two or three old washers in the backyard

Where does one acquire such a thing?

Not at the moment. I haven't been since yesterday. Which is longer than I like between trips.
