Am a current member. This is open to members of GSA although they will schedule a tour if you are interested, As a pistol shooter, the aforementioned steel pistol range is fairly nice, Distance to targets varies from 15 to 30 yards or so, There are also covered 100 yard and 200 yard rifle ranges. The 100 yard range is the nicest, imo, It has a shotgun trap range which I have never used and seems to have its own gate pass. I also belong to ORSA which is many times larger and has more to offer. However, in the couple of years I have been a member or GSA it has impressed me with what it offers and how hard this small club tries to keep things up, Great people. I have never been there and found it to be crowded, Usually it is just me and my guest(s), Glad I belong, glad for ORSA as well. Suggest you go to their website and follow the link to schedule a tour. Best of Luck3 points

9 times out of 10, the chamber is compromised "if" the extractor is in place....and functional. Hi vels will only eject at a faster speed. other than that, no difference. Standard vel should be the choice for plinking as stated. Alot of these old corrosive primed 22 eater's that have alot of use on them simply have over sized chambers. A hi vel can expand the casing to the point where a worn extractor (even a good one) just cant grab whats left of a minimized rim lip. Not so much with a standard vel pressure. Also, these guns have a wide extractor that if the action is slammed into battery ALOT without a cartridge going into battery, the extractor can peen an inward lip at the barrel extractor cut notch inward into the chamber creating a lip that will reduce the expanded cartridge cases ability to slide out of this inward protruded chamber wall. IMO, if the barrel's chamber in not in spec, I would reline it with a Redding liner and have it shooting along with the accuracy of 10/22's. I learned how to refinish guns to match factory cut steel finishes. From what I'v seen over the decades, 90 percent of the reblued guns I'v seen were buggared up abortions of wrong grit, wrong strike direction cut and mostly washed out screw holes, lettering and edges. It would make my stomach churn to see that gun be destroyed by some basement trained wana be gunsmith's blueing tanks. The wear on it, is years in service stripes. We used to call em french fries on class A duds. Why demoralize that ol gun? Sell it to one here above who will do it right and stand it upright next to its brethren!2 points

I say this as a 1911 fan with more than a few of them: There's no good replacement for low round count and slow, heavy rounds except for maybe a slingshot.2 points

one piece of advice when/if you get going. With most pistol calibers you can drop a double charge or more without it overflowing the case. This is why it is important to visually check each powder drop. Once you get into it, you can see when the powder charge isn't right. It is a good idea to put an LED strip light on the underside of the press so it shines down in the cases for this reason. There are electronic gizmos out there (powder cop) to warn you of this if needed. MOST rifle calibers this isn't so much of a concern as they are almost always close to full capacity anyway, 300 blackout is one that can be overcharged off the top of my head.2 points

I generally try to keep this kind of chit chat out of the classifieds and stick to PM's for conversations pertaining to the item in question. That's respect for the rules put in place by TGODavid. But I do thank you @derffor the suggestion. However in this instance NOT responding openly and publicly in this ad may give some newer members on here the impression I am attempting to hide something and I certainly don't want that. I won't go into debate here but my take on having a license is operating with the sole purpose of profit and doing so frequently. Most if not all the firearms I have listed on here currently I can place the year or near the year they were purchased and a lot of times where and who they came from. For instance this RIA came from the Quinn family of the famous online site Gunblast and the famous Jeff Quinn. the Kahr Mk9 on here was bought in the late 90's, the 59 2014. I could go on but you get the picture. There are several on here that know my passion and help feed it lol. And for that I am most grateful. As to having "soo many" I truly hope we never get to the point where we have a definition of how many we can have. I do ask that no one " BOB " this ad and respond here. If anyone would like debate me I welcome it but ask that you do so via PM or if you have my number text me. Now, it came back home with me today after a day of fondling so someone on here needs this2 points

POWDER UPDATE We have and will always appreciate feedback from our community, and we hear you and your suggestions for us to make more powder. With this post, our goal is to clear up several items and dispel misinformation. WHY CAN’T HODGDON MAKE MORE POWDER? We wish it were that simple - what we have experienced since 2020 is a demand issue and not a supply issue. The reality is we are doing everything possible to maximize shipments to our customers, including running overtime in production, packaging and shipping areas and working with our shipping partners to add new inbound and outbound shipping options. We are absolutely shipping more powder to our customers. The issue is this powder is quickly purchased when our retailers place it on store shelves or on their websites. Hodgdon will continue to ship powder, but the inventory situation will likely continue until demand begins to normalize. WHY CAN’T HODGDON BUILD ANOTHER POWDER PLANT? A new powder production facility would require an investment far beyond our finances and no financial institution would finance this type of building project. While the current demand appears to be different from demand spikes in the last 20 years, the “normal” powder demand for the U.S. would not support an additional manufacturing plant. Most companies cannot afford to build a new production facility and then have it sit idle until demand spikes. An additional complicating factor would be locating this plant – there are only a handful of these facilities in North America and none have been built in the last 30 years. WHY CAN’T HODGDON SHIP MORE POWDER? As we’ve shared in many responses to our social audience, this is a demand issue and not a supply issue. Demand for ALL ammunition and reloading components is at historic levels. The fact is we continue to ship more powder to our customers, but this powder is quickly purchased by end consumers as soon as it is offered for sale. WHY IS HODGDON SELLING POWDER TO AMMUNITION MANUFACTURERS? Our focus is the handloading enthusiast. Yes, we sell some powder to strategic, mostly smaller ammunition manufacturers, but that is a small part of our business. The heart of our business is smokeless powder for the handloading enthusiast. Every day, we receive calls from potential OEM customers who are looking for powder to load in ammunition. Every day, we politely decline this new business so we can focus on our long-term customers and sales channels and most importantly, our costumers who have supported us for decades. WHY IS HODGDON SELLING POWDER ON AUCTION SITES? Hodgdon does not sell powder on any online auction sites. We sell through traditional sales channels to wholesalers, retailers and dealer customers. While we recently began selling direct-to-consumer on our own websites, we prioritize our shipments to our traditional sales channels to maximize powder availability at sporting goods and gun shops everywhere. WHY IS THE PRICE OF POWDER SO HIGH ON THE INTERNET? Hodgdon has increased prices over the last several years to partially offset our increased labor, raw materials and transportation costs, but we are not and will not gouge our consumer end users who are looking for powder to load for their own use. We sell through traditional sales channels to wholesalers, retailers and dealer customers. We do not encourage any of our retailers or dealers to sell on auction sites, but we cannot control what happens after we sell to our traditional sales channels. On our own websites, we have placed product limits on purchases so that we can maximize the number of customers who can buy our powder. CLOSING NOTES: Hodgdon is still a small business, with fewer than a hundred employees between three facilities in Kansas and Montana. We are not driven by profit-margin spreadsheets, but rather tradition and a genuine love for our jobs and what is made possible because of the work we do. Serving you is our privilege and a blessing. In the current political climate, demand for our product has never been higher. Coupled with COVID restrictions, we have what some might refer to as “the perfect storm.” Regardless, we remain steadfast and resolute in our purpose to put powder in your hands, our shooting community.2 points

I think the main thing here is how the spotlights are blinding people as they drive by the Deputy/Officer/Trooper or whoever. I dont do it and neither do anyone else I know. I haven't seen it either when driving on interstates. People saying that they are doing it to see if you have seat belts on ? Man, you must have some good eyes because there's no way I could see inside a moving vehicle and determine anything if a vehicles is going 70+mph in the dark with a blinding light shining on it for a fraction of a second. At very rare times LEO will spot light cars to check for certain ones if they are looking for a felony suspect that has just happened near that area and the make color and model of the car is know that the suspect left in. But just sitting in he median or road side with the light on is a hazzard to drivers and could blind them. I would say it's accidental and the person left it turned on. I have did it before with overhead lights. But if this is a repeated thing over and over again i say it's intentional and you could call 911 and say that a unit in the area is blinding drivers with a spotlight turned on.2 points

I got this from the state in 2016, it has just over 166k miles. P71 with street appearance package (chrome grille/hubcaps) cloth interior. 2004 is considered to be one of the best years made, it has upgraded brakes, suspension and engine over earlier years but also less electronics than later years. No check engine lights, runs and drives fine, ac/heat both work great. Asking $3000 cash Nashville area

Also has night sights, Truglo I believe. Unknown round count I have had this for several years but works perfect. I only have one of the backstraps that came with. Also the standard box. $450 OBO.

The SR9c and the SR45 were in my stable for quite a while. I sold the SR9c, as it really just didn't feel right to me. Dunno why, it just didn't. The SR45 was another matter. IMO, one of the best shooting 45s made outside of the 1911. In a fit of major stupidity, I sold it as well. Putz am I.1 point

You hit the nail on the head regarding a Pro model of the SR9. Everyone I talk to who owned or carried the SR9 things that would have been a significant upgrade and good seller. The SR series were better guns than both of the following offerings from Ruger.1 point

To put it in perspective: I have a friend who owns property on the plateau. It's a couple of hours drive & he does have hogs. I've killed a few up there over the years. I can spend a week on his place & maybe kill a pig. Or, I can drive 12 hours to east Texas, 10 to central Florida, 6 to South Georgia or 4 to central Alabama, spend a day or two there & fill my truck bed.1 point

Hello moverton, Probably help if you put the price at the top, not everybody scrolls down on these. The three dots to the upper right of your original post, click on those, then click edit, then it will let you add the price or anything else you want on your original post. When you're done editing, scroll to the bottom and hit the big black box that says EDIT COPY. That will re-set it. This is also the same way to CLOSE the ad after it sells.1 point

Picked this one ip last weekend as a base for a custom re-work with Wilson Combat internals, some nice laminate grips, stainless bits, hi-viz style sights and much fitting/smoothing. Nothing fancy, just a RIA Tac Standard but have always wanted a monolithic 1911 and Springfield TRP Operators are just too darned much money.

A few weeks ago I picked up this Springfield Armory EMP 4" at the recommendation of one of our members. Took it to the range last week and this is a very accurate handgun. I was able to hit head shots at 20 yds without any problem. I am going to break it in a little more and start carrying this gun.1 point

Tennessee Gun Owners Trading Post Updated August 14, 2023 Terms and Conditions By using the Trading Post, you agree and affirm that TNGunOwners.com (TGO) is an "Information Service Provider" as defined by Federal Law and that TGO is not the seller of ANY of the firearms or other items listed here. Listings are posted by third parties. TGO's role is similar to that of a newspaper which publishes classified ads. Our knowledge of a transaction is limited to the information contained in an item's listing and user registration databases. Rules for Using the Trading Post Observe all Federal, State and Local laws at all times. Clearly and accurately describe the item that you are offering. Disclose any flaws, any blemishes, any problems. Provide clear photos when possible. Do not offer items on behalf of a friend or other third-party. Only list items that you own and are in possession of. Do not make "testing the water" types of posts. Only post if you are ready to sell or trade. Do not agree to buy or take possession of an item unless you have all of the resources (money, items for trade, etc.) necessary to complete the deal. Complete any agreed-upon transactions within seven (7) business days unless both parties agree, in writing on TGO, that an extension of this deadline is acceptable. All transactions are final, and all items are provided as-is and without warranty unless the seller/trader says otherwise. Do not make any replies designed to interfere with the sale or trade of an item. If you wish to haggle, do it privately with the seller. No one cares what you think about the price or availability of an item. Don't be a dick. Access to the Trading Post may be revoked if you fail to follow the rules, fail to follow the law, or fail to be honest and ethical in your dealings Haggle privately. If you are a new member and can't send a private message, just post a public reply and ask the author of the ad to contact you. Haggling does not belong in public. It is no one's business what you think an item is worth. That is between you and the seller. Suggestions for Buyers and Sellers When agreeing to meet in person, put safety first. Trust your instincts! Consider only meeting at a public place with surveillance video (police stations are great for this!) and only meeting during daylight hours. Try not to meet alone, but also be clear in advance if you will be bringing a friend as backup. No one likes to be surprised by the presence of other people if it wasn't expected. Check the TGO Trader Feedback of the buyer / seller before you commit to a transaction with them. A person having "No Feedback" is not necessarily a bad thing but watch out for people with negative ratings for past deals. Scammers love to operate in private. Be extra careful if someone with little or no public content approaches you privately regarding an ad that you posted. Consider telling them to post their reply publicly where the moderators can help keep an eye on things. Every online payment service has their own list of things you may not use their service to pay for. Failing to follow their policies could result in your account with them being terminated, funds frozen or loss of buyer/seller protection. Be sure you know what they allow. Zelle, Venmo, PayPal Friends & Family and other services may not offer much (or any) payment protection. We recommend cash for in person transactions and PayPal Goods & Services for any non-restricted sales of things that are being shipped. Again, be sure that you know what the payment service provides and allows and be sure to check buyer/seller feedback here on TGO. Be willing to pay a little more for insurance from the payment service or shipper. Why Can't I Post New Threads? Are you a Benefactor member? As a thank you for supporting TGO, we typically give our Benefactors elevated permissions in some of our forums. When you buy a Benefactor membership, you're paying for a media service (TGO) similar to paying for a magazine subscription. You aren't buying the "right" to buy or sell anything on TGO. We merely make those areas available to you as a Thank You for helping us provide this forum to the public. Click here to become a Benefactor member. If you have any questions or suggestions, please contact the Staff. This article evolves over time, and we always appreciate your ideas.1 point
