Looks like some relief is in sight. HAMBLEN COUNTY, Tenn. (WATE) – The Nolichucky Dam has remained intact, and the river feeding it has begun to recede. Around 9:50 a.m. Saturday, the Tennessee Valley Authority shared that the Nolichucky River had crested and the Nolichucky Dam remained intact. According to the TVA, the water is receding at a rate of approximately one foot per hour. Dam Safety teams are assessing the condition of the dam to determine what the next steps should be. Evacuations ordered along Nolichucky River due to 'imminent failure of the Nolichucky Dam' (wate.com)

Up for grabs is a never fired Glock 30 Gen 5 .45 ACP. I've carried this for a few months, but never fired it. Comes in factory Glock case with all accessories, 3 mags, a DeSantis IWB holster, and over 200 rounds of 230gr self defense ammo (Speed Gold Dot and Federal HST) with a few rounds of loose ammo. Asking price is $700

I saw something on the news about Newport being evacuated due to the dam possibly failing. I'm hoping that situation is resolved. Y'all are dealing with enough water already. Edit: Nevermind, I scrolled up on the thread. I should stop coming into the conversation at the newest message. Y'all are in my thoughts and I'm hoping everyone's damage is minimal.

Cocke county and Greene county both are in really bad shape, both the dams were compromised yesterday and there's terrible flooding there. Prayers for everyone in those areas and all North Carolina, Florida and everywhere affected by this devastating storm. It's gonna be a really rough time for alot of folks and I'm sure some members on here. We gotta all pull together as communities to get thru this. Stay safe everyone.

SOLD!! Yet another pistol I never shoot. Maybe 1000 rounds through it over the last decade, probably less. Night sights still bright. Short reset trigger from factory. SIX of the twenty rounds magazines. Two different packages to choose from: 1- pistol, magazines, case, and range bag is 1000$ 2- package 1 plus TLR-1, Safari land light bearing holster, and Blackhawk retention holster for 1200$ Meet at my house in South Nashville near McMurray middle school. Not interested in shipping or trades. THANKS!

She needs a bullet that has been fired and recovered from a biological organism. I handed her a bullet that hit a target just over 1k. She said the engraving looked fantastic, but she wants it to be a bullet from her handgun. Deer season just got exciting. Lol

Glad you are safe and have some provisions. Hopefully reinforcements are on their way. This is going to be a long recovery. Multiple years.

Yes I have several family and a bunch of friends. All are safe. I'm told the pictures don't show the true destruction.

I'm told Hot Springs, NC is even worse. The words used are the entire town is unsalvagable. It's a few miles downriver from Marshall.

We're in the Tri-cities area and it is my understanding that they were evacuating the community hospital by boat yesterday. It's a really bad situation. We're praying for everyone impacted.

Note to self...... "NEVER sell nothin'"

I HATE this thread. After decades of love for the 1911 and 45 acp sold mine off, ammo too. Too old for serious target and got out of reloading, avid steel plinker though. Now this thread has me looking at Bud's for a 9mm 1911. Many thousand of 9mm reloads in my closet. So there goes a grand plus an optic. Gosh darn it!

It is devastating to see the damage Helene has done to the east side of the state and west NC. Prayers for everyone affected.

Sig box is full, both Underwood are partial and a bag of Georgia Arms, probably 20 or 30 in there. Trade for 9mm, .45 ACP, 300 Blackout, .223/5.56, 10 mm. Trade can be in your favor, really just trying to get rid of some ammo I can’t use in favor of some I can.

The Magwedge is a terrific option. Have one on my SKS-D https://www.magwedge.com/product/magwedge-sks-kwikrail-gen-4/

Jefferson County just had wind and rain. Flooding was not as heavy as other areas but power is out in some places. I'm sure he is busy on his farm.

Yes, they evacuated downtown as well as most places along the river. My neighbor works at the funeral home, they were evacuated and had to find a safe place to take the bodies before they left. I spent most of the day listening to the scanner, it was scary. Lots of swift water rescues and such going on.

I would for practice. I have purchased Alabama Brand reloads for practice and they have been quality. Not sure they are still in business. Would not purchase it for S D purposes. Would stay with name brands for S D purposes.

My Lord. Prayers for all. Thanks to all for sharing the information.

I think many don’t understand just how devastating an event like this can be in the mountains.

Probably going to kill one with a ,tag it in and let her shoot it. We will do a full autopsy and get the .38 so she can compare the bullet to the gun.

What about road kill? The fresher the better.

I will take it. Send me a PM.

Thanks for sharing this project with us. It’s inspiration for this loafer.

Only you know! I think your location may have something to do with a lack of interest. If you were half an hour from me I would have bought these componants when you first listed them. But Wears Valley is a bit of a drive for me. You're offering a very fair deal, I think, just too far from me.

Back to TN politics and upcoming election......dates are fast approaching: 1) Must be registered to vote by 10/7....easy to do if you are not registered 2) Early Voting 10/16-10/31.....avoid long lines and vote early if you can 3) Absentee Request Deadline 10/29

Good to hear she's been out of the hospital for awhile. Continued prayers for all of you!

We've been out of the hospital for a bit. She's stable and the new medication is working. My Wife and kids are pretending to be okay.

Because you said the quilt is in storage at the TN State Museum. The state museum and the state archives are next door to each other and work closely with one another. I'd start with the museum though. If they have the quilt, they may also have the letter.

I went to the gun show many years ago to buy a Taurus 1911, when they first came out. I found the Taurus 1911 next to this Colt series 80. The Taurus was a POS so I got the Colt. I saw no reason to buy another since this one works 100%. Now I want a Rock Island! I paid $600 and some change for it.

A well trained and practiced solider could get off 3 shots per minute.
