I have a 1973 stamped trunion Romanian Wasr 10/63 and a Yugoslavian O-pap, both needing new homes. Cleaning out safe and selling off a few that don't receive much attention. First is a Wasr 10/63 imported by Century. Rifle will come with 1 magazine. Looking for $750 on this one. (SOLD) Second is a Yugoslavian O-pap with Serbian crested buttstock. These are the most sought after of the Pap family and built like tanks. Rifle will come with 1 magazine. Looking for $950 on this one.

Such a tragedy for those people. Praying for them and the Florida/Georgia people also.

We were up in Erwin/Mars Hill last summer rafting. It was a beautiful place. We met some really nice folks there.

Spoke to a friend that lives just west of I81, he has no damage. He said all they has was rain. Mother Nature can be so mean at times. Praying for those that have lost so much.

I am very sorry. This is one of the hardest things to go through. I have such a love for my dogs that I've never gotten over the ones I've lost. They give us unconditional love. They certainly deserve no less from us, maybe more. May the Lord grant you peace.

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

One part of TripleGGG is gone but will never be forgotten. The best dog I've ever had. 09-26-2024 Ginger was more than just a pet—she was family. She was the kind of dog whose wagging nub of a tail could light up the darkest days and whose presence brought warmth to every corner of our lives. From the first day she bounded into our hearts, Ginger was a source of unconditional love. She had that playful spirit, always ready for an adventure, but also knew when to sit quietly by your side, offering comfort in her quiet, gentle way. Her eyes spoke volumes—filled with kindness, loyalty, and the unspoken understanding that only a true friend could offer. Whether she was chasing after her toy frogs or curling up next to us after a long day, Ginger was always there. She had a way of knowing when we needed her the most, as if she could sense the moments when a wag, a lick, or a nudge of her nose could make everything just a little bit better. It's hard to sum up the depth of what she gave us—so many days filled with laughter, so many nights with her soft fur beneath our hands as we rested together. Ginger’s love was pure, without hesitation or condition. She taught us the true meaning of loyalty, of joy in the simple things, and of being present for the ones we love. Though she's no longer physically with us, Ginger's spirit will forever be part of our lives. We'll see her in the quiet moments of peace, in the familiar places she loved, and in the countless memories she’s left behind. Ginger may have had four paws and a wagging nub of a tail, but she had the heart of a giant. She taught us about love, patience, and living each day with a sense of adventure. And for that, we will be forever grateful. Rest easy, sweet Ginger. You were the best, and you will never be forgotten. Your paw prints are forever on our hearts.

Always a favorite!

My wife and I were discussing the same thing. Their only hope is FEMA help.

Oh I don’t regret dumping the acp round. Just the 1911 platform

Sending prayers up for you and yours, Jeb!

I’d have to say the original FNH FNP-45 acp USG model. This was developed, I believe to compete to replace the military’s Beretta handguns. I think the military decided to stick with 9mm instead very early on, but after FN spent considerable to develop this gun and this was left hanging. There were a couple original models, but the USG seemed the best choice for me. It can be configured to function like a 1911, chambered, cocked, locked with a safety on for single action carry, or chambered, decocked and first shot double action , subsequent single action. No parts switching required. 15+1 rounds of .45 goodness. What’s not to like? Well, the weight, LMAO. I felt like I had an extra full length appendage when I carried it plus two spare mags all day. But that thing will eat anything. Wouldn’t surprise me if it ate 9mm and 10mm as well! No, I’m kidding about that last part, but it fired reliably every round and cycled perfectly every time. FN later came out with other .45 models bug nog sure what they changed or why.

I am just using factory Federal Hi Shok soft point. If you check familyfirearms.com they are not charging sales tax. I got 3 Gen 1's for $448 each. The Gen 2's were $494. Only downside they charged $20 shipping on each one instead of packing them together to make it cheaper. I am old and like things simple. The Gen 2's look to me like they were designed by Mattel or Pfisher Price. Keep it simple.

What a game Georgia didn’t get out of the bus till Halftime. Alabama came ready. And made some incredible catches they earned the win for sure. But Texas is still number 1 BAMA and Ohio State will be a good match up

Love the newer M&P's with the new trigger. I have several of them and am planning to buy more as soon as I can. I also love that they are offering them in Aluminum frames. Not saying that it is any better than poly but it is nice to have options and variety.

Georgia made a great comeback but still got beat. Maybe when the last of Saban’s players are gone we’ll see what the future holds for Bama.

They often are but I don’t like to give them credit because of some people I know, lol. I’m a casual Ole Miss fan and that loss kinda sucked.

Kentucky is a better team than anyone gives them credit for. They beat Old Miss today.

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

Weatherby sa8 compact 20ga shotgun 24" barrel with chokes, shims, ton of ammo, and a new box of clays Shotgun is wrapped in the camo patern, can be removed. Original finish is black Bunch of ammo from birdshot to buck. $400 for everything

Do you still have people there? Are they safe?

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

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.

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)

The official situation as of early this morning: Flash Report #4 Hurricane Helene (tn.gov)

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.

I still have a soft spot in my heart for memories of pets I lost when I was a kid. Only the grace of God makes it bearable. Prayers for you and yours @TripleGGG

So sorry to read this, may peace be with you and yours TripleGGG

The judicial picks made by the President can have a lasting impact for decades, so selection of the President does matter to some extent.

This is a “look at me” bill to get him reelection points. It will go nowhere. We do not want the federal government getting involved in national carry business. Methinks it will not end like many assume…think NY or CA requirements and restrictions for carrying mandated in TN.

The son dug an old series 70 Colt gubmt model out of the safe the other evenin and I handled it for a while. It re- reminded me how great they are. I went ahead and rounded me up a Fusion Freedom ( gubt with good sights, beaver tail, n skeletonized hammer ) to shoot a bit. I finally took it out the other day n shot it. I like it alot, the problem is my 78 year old hands are wearing out. I'm letting the pistola twist in my grip a bit, and it ain't lockin the slide back on the last round. I like the Fusion alot, I just need a bit more wrist n hand strength. I'ma guessin that that trip was the first time in 40 years I've shot one. They are a great pistola, plenty of power and an extra good trigger. There ain't nothing like a gubt model... leroy...

Great looking Colt. Funny story..... I actually did buy the Taurus 1911 that you mention and brought it home. Right out of the box, it was (and still is today) the most accurate shooting 1911 that I own. I know the reputation has some "burrs" on it, but the one I bought is a true "tack driver."

Whatever you gave the floating guy in the background, send me a pkg of that.

You sparked a memory of my first handgun. I had just moved to Memphis and a guy I was in school with was telling me where to stay away from and where was safe-a complicated issue when you’re not from there. He asked “what gun do you carry?” I confessed that I didn’t. He said “ you have to have a gun-this is Memphis”. He sold me a Rossi stainless steel .38 spl with Pachmayr grips for $100. It was my backup when I worked LE. It goes to the range once a year. I just replaced the firing pin last Fall and she’s back to factory spec. I tried to sell it once at the Knoxville gun show, but the guy changed his mind. I was so glad he did as I drove home. It won’t be up for sale until I’m gone- even then my son will probably want it.

I keep a log in Excel of my inventory, probably too much detail for the average Joe, I do address who, what, when, where, and why for each acquired item. Within my detail, I do have a column named keeper score, where a 1 is a dog and 10 will probably be buried with me in my dead hands (a joke). Anyway I use to have a strict rule, never ever get rid of a gun because of the same reasons most people tell of the regret. I started that practice 30+ years ago, and I do try to acquire at least 1 per year for some sad reason to fill a missing niche, so I probably have a respectful collection. Anyway, when my father passed away 5 years ago, and he split his mild collection between my brother and me, I had to make a hard decision, and decided any gun with a score of 3 or lower had to go, so they did. The problem I used the funds to buy new keeper score guns of 8, 9, and 10s. The good thing it was not a 1:1 ratio, but more of a 5:1, so I turned several $200+ guns into 1 big purchased gun. I do have a rule, all gun money stays in the same bucket of money, I do not use family money for my hobby, nor do I use my hobby money for family items (not yet). I do have to reassess my logic in the next 10 years, if my sons do not find interest in my collection, I would rather sell off at near market value versus my wife or sons selling them off for mere pennies on the dollars, and that would cause me to roll over multiple times in my grave. There is something about grown men will take a bath on trading or selling a used car/truck, but the same grown men will not tolerate any loss on a gun whatsoever, go figure!

with great power... you're a good father, supporting your sons business. it's only natural order.

Anything in .32 caliber. Pistol, revolver, .32acp or .32 S&W Long. Just about anything in .32 is very underappreciated. The big thing these days is service calibers and high capacity. The couch commandos dismiss the .32s and wouldn't even consider them. Remember that .32 acp pistols were police issue in much of Europe for decades and worked just fine. A .32 revolver was a quite common carry gun in the U.S. well into the 20th century. No its not a powerhouse. But it will get the job done if you do your part. Modern ammo has much improved its performance as well. Plus we now have the .32 H&R Magnum and the .327 Federal to further expand the .32s possibilities. The light recoil and amazing inherent accuracy make .32s a pure pleasure to shoot. I have a Walther PP in .32acp. Seems like every time I take it to the range, somebody tries to buy it from me. When the arthritis in my wife's hands got too bad for her Detective Special, we found her a 2" S&W Model 31 in .32 S&W Long. The recoil was easy for her to handle and she shot it very well. She loved that gun. For older people and those with physical issues a .32 caliber gun is perfect. Scoff if you want. You just don't know what your missing out on.
