My thoughts and Prayers go out to all affected by this disaster. I've lived through several hurricanes and tornadoes in my life and one must actually see the devastation to truly comprehend it. That said it always saddens me when someone has to. Those troubles last way beyond initial contact for certain.,. @tercel89 I hope your friend and family are OK (lame word) but you get my meaning. God Bless all.4 points

We are not her target demographic. It's estimated that her last tour brought in over $1B in revenue. I can understand why she's on the news a lot.3 points

Our neighborhood was spared. But west right behind my house that area is still without power. I can hear the generators running. Immediately east of us on tiny town was hit pretty bad and south of us as well. I am not going out on the roads unless absolutely needed. Work crews and first responders are working hard to help people and restore power, they don’t need any unnecessary traffic or looky loos.3 points

Up for trade is my Nighthawk Custom GRP Recon chambered in 45 acp. Fit, finish, and function as to be expected from NHC. This pistol has very minimal holster wear towards the muzzle and on the front rail from having a surefire x300 on it. Looking to trade for other high end 1911s in either 9mm or 45 acp such as Wilson combat , alchemy custom weaponry, NHC, Springfield custom shop, Ted Yost builds ect. Can add cash if your trade is worth more than the nighthawk. Thanks2 points

While not a "Swifty" I admire what she's done for herself I do know a song or two thanks to my granddaughters. Honestly I pay no attention to her or any of today's singers/actors as I'm trying to live a stress free life.2 points

Wheeler has one similar to what's posted, and is a gods send IMO. Gets you on paper very quickly unless those action screw holes were NOT drilled in a straight line. LOL2 points

I hear similar things about her. She's undeniably a giver and I applaud her for that. You can't take all that money with you. Dolly does a lot of good, especially locally, but my favorite thing about Dolly is that she WON'T mix her entertainment career with her political beliefs:2 points

She was tolerable as a country artist, but it turned into teeny-pop fast. Not my cup of tea. Now that she's decided she wants her political ideals to be fused with her music, I find her even less tolerable.2 points

Honestly, I wouldn't know one of her songs if you hit me over the head with it. Just not my thing. But she is talented, pretty and from what I hear a very good business woman. I also hear that she truly appreciates her fans and goes out of her way to show it. I say good for her.2 points

As Time's Person of the Year, I assumed she found the cure to cancer, negotiated lasting peace in the Middle East, ended world hunger and resolved the National Debt in between her busy tour schedule. Or simply being famous with a zillion fans is the new benchmark for Time2 points

I'm lucky to have no damage, besides my car tire picking up a screw. If any fellow members in Clarksville need anything, let me know.2 points

Prayers for all those folks in the area. My area was under a watch until 3am Sunday but the Knoxville news stations were only talking about the Middle TN storms, so nothing bad up this way. Again, prayers for all the folks in Middle TN.2 points

A mixed AR, Barrel is CMC and less than 100 rounds fired, S&W lower and bolt, CMC flat faced trigger. Works like a sewing machine and more accurate than me. One big must know is it is rattle can painted, so if you like being an artist, this is your gun, but I know thats not everyone’s favorite. Comes with A2 flash hider, not the Q cherry bomb shown. Looking to sell for $850 but that is variable, give me a fair offer and we can talk. Text 2398229662 for info. Located in Knoxville.1 point

These tornados in winter seem worse than the ones in the spring to me. These up and down temperatures make life miserable. We can under a tornado warning and went into the shelter but thankfully nothing came of it around here. Prayers to all those affected by this recent storm. My heart truly does got out to you all.1 point

Thank you dirtshooter. I totally understand turning the team over to a younger Officer. I was glad to let the younger take over our previous team, but in our new church they drafted me. My skills are decreasing by the day however I have been practicing lots more recently. "Most probably" we will be called on to handle light disturbances, door locking, and directing traffic in our church, and prayerfully a very long shot on the more serious stuff. These small instances can be very unnerving to our brothers and sisters. Yes, I meant to say brothers, because some/many have not gotten the big message yet. I, for one, am verry thankful we do have some that are willing to put themselves out there for "the all". In the West Freeway church it only took one skilled senior citizen to save the many. IMO, he is and was a true "Warrior". So was the neighbor at the Southerland Springs church who stopped the shooter after he did the carnage there. Be strong and safe Dirtshooter. Thank you for your service to your church sir. Edited to add content; Dirtshooter google West Freeway Church of Christ shooting." You will learn of that Warrior there. Watch the 3 minute Video in "real time". Shame on the people who only want to criticize humble efforts to protect others!1 point

Selling a CZ P10F Competition OR. Has all the upgrades that will take it bump it up one more notch. Comes with an Apex Trigger and SS Guide Rod so you can tune the gun easily with different recoil springs. I have a medium magazine extension as well as the stock long magazine extension. P10 (Apex Trigger $115). I had thought I would do some competition shooting but time, money, kids college...blah, blah, blah got in the way. Please note because of the light striker spring in this pistol which gives you that nice clean and light break it will not reliably ignite ALL primers. If you are shooting cheap ammo it will probably not ignite something like 1-3 out of 50. If you use quality ammo or reload its fine but something to note especially if you are a competitive shooter. Reduced price to $700. Must be a TN Resident and show ID. Thanks for looking.1 point

I always figured that these were for children or elderly that were unable to man a defensive position to be in a safer/central part of the house reloading for those of us holding off the horde.1 point

First Pop Pop let me thank you for your service to this country. One of my brother-in-laws was on his 2nd tour in Nam during the Tet offensive. I have been the chairman of our safety team at church for 3 years and have just turned it over to a younger retired THP. We have about 30 camera's inside and out, we lock the doors about 10 after the services start, they have panic bars and people can always exit safely. Someone mans the camera's and 1 more team member armed in the foyer. If somebody wants in we have to allow them in unless they shoot the doors out, at that time it is going to get real ugly really fast. There are generally 175 people in attendance and at least 15-20 people with cc firearms, at least 2 women carry. I pray regularly that we never have to use a tool to defend our congregation, but we will if forced to. This isn't the world we grew up in guys and gals. Drug addicts will shoot you for the pocket change you have. I think Bersaguy told the story where a neighbor was attacked while cutting his grass, that is why you always keep your tool on your person and your head on a swivel. Sometimes it is just convenient to rob and or shoot the old guy cutting his grass, maybe get his keys and steal his truck while we're at it. Stay safe, pray always!!1 point

Here's my daughter, Maggie, with our purebred yellow labs Daisy and Shelby, and our pitbull / cattle dog mix, Barrett. We have always had a dog since we first got our own house. The kids grew up with a big 90lbs pitbull / black lab mix, Sebastian, who was so gentle that he'd let them bounce on his head, and so intimidating that the Jehova's Witnesses stopped knocking. Sebastian was a rescue, just like every dog we've had since. He was a 7 month old that was too much puppy for his original family to handle. Being black and a pit mix, he was not likely to be adopted. We found him at the pound on his last chance month, and he was the best-behaved dog anyone could ask for. When we moved to a house with property, Sebastian gained a little brother, Scout. He was a cattle dog / shepherd mix that looked just like a half-sized German shepherd. A lifelong puppy-sized short-haired shepherd that leapt up cliff faces like a mountain goat. He was a street rescue from Calexico. Injured in his first weeks of life, a dog charity imported him to the US. Whatever happened to him down there left a permanent impression on him, because he was extremely, inconsolably aggressive to only one kind of person: Hispanic males. He was a mixed mutt from the streets of Mexico; he was our Racist Street Taco. Barrett was a rescue from the pound; friends picked him up in Texas as he was about to be put down. He'd had a hard first year; he grew up in the shelter and overcame Parvo. My friends tried keeping him but he had a submissive peeing habit that they couldn't beat. They drove him 1000 miles to us in Chattanooga just to give him another shot. It's been six months and there's no more peeing. I like dog training. His purebred sisters are rescues, too. They were $1000 AKC puppies who were adopted by a single lady who works 10+ hours in an ER and lives in a condo. Apparently, she decided that might not be the best recipe for success with two 60lbs dogs after the puppies destroyed the condo a few times over and earned her some HOA violations. We agreed to take them in, and now they're right at home on acres upon acres of private ranch. We never go out to buy a dog. There are so many in need already, and somehow they seem to find us at just the right time. We love our dogs, and we're glad to have a place for them.1 point

I don't think it's just about a church shooting though. I'm on our church's safety team and recently a handgun was discovered in a diaper bag. My experience with firearms let me handle it carefully and make it safe until the parent could get a talking to. I get your feelings about carrying at church though 100%. I struggled with it. This is the house of the Lord right? The decision was made pretty easy for me though. I'm a wall flower and after about 7 years of attending my church, i knew about 3-4 people. One day i got introduced to one of the safety team folks. After talking for a few minutes, he asked if I would be interested in serving. After saying yes, suddenly i started being drawn into being a recognized face. I talk to more people, they talk to me. I've started attending mens groups, bible studies and i'm even an usher now. The handgun is just there. Lord willing, i'll never need it.1 point

I've read some accounts that the numbers support the possibility that they mostly cannibalized SBR applications from gun owners who were already going to apply anyway. I don't see how they came to that conclusion, but I hope it's true. So, I'm happy for anyone who wanted to SBR their pistol and got it done free. For everyone else who got extorted by the ATF against their will, I wish there was some justice. However, I'm of they opinion that they were overly gullible. Most of the 2A folks I know felt they just had to bide their time for this to fail in court.1 point

I built my reloading bench from 2x4 and 2x6 material; top and all. Screw it to the wall.1 point

I just built a table frame out of 2x4 lumber, put a 3/4" thick plywood top on it, and then put a cheap countertop with backsplash from Lowes on top of that. I drilled through the countertop and plywood, ran my bolts for the press through it, and voila. Rock steady. You can tie that to the wall in the garage with some long decking screws or lag bolts and it absolutely won't rock or tilt while you're cranking away on the press. The backsplash on the countertop keeps primers and casings from rolling off the back of the table, too.1 point
