  1. ***SOLD*** I purchased this knife from our very own TGO member and knife maker Grand Torino 5 or 6 years ago. I hate to let it go, but life happens. Here is information he provided at time of purchase: “11 1/2" OAL beauty with a false edge and hollow grind. The blade is right at 6" long. it has over 500 layers to achieve its look. It's about 3/16" thick at the spine. The handles are new product from Voodoo Resins. They have this unique look with the added aluminum mesh added into the blade. Very cool and different. It has SS pins and lanyard tube and comes with the combo kydex/leather sheath shown.” $175. No trades at the moment. Located in Nashville. Will ship for free at asking price. ***Additional photos in comments

  7. This is what you seek. I have many shotguns, most much more expensive than a Maverick, but the Mavericks are great guns. I like them because I can beat on them and not worry about it and they get the job done. The combo would meet your needs well and is very affordable at just over $300.

  8. ATF doesn't need to be abolished. They actually do serve a purpose. What they need is to redefine their objectives and stop being used as a political weapon for gun control. There are real bad guys out there illegally trafficking in guns. They need to be arrested. But leave the average gun owner and the LGS alone. Most of all, enforce the laws as written. They don't need to be "interpenetrated" to mean whatever you want them to. If ATF were abolished, that would mean their duties would have to be passed to another federal agency. Most likely the FBI. Are you sure you want that?

  9. In case you haven't already seen it, Glock and Aimpoint have collaborated to deliver a new variant of several Glock models this year, each featuring a slide cut with a new Aimpoint optics mounting footprint designed to work with Aimpoint's new COA pistol optic. Before you totally dismiss it as the answer to a problem that no one was asking, it really is worth looking at. Not something I'd rush to replace ANY of my existing Glocks with, but (a.) it designed as a package primarily meant for organizations looking to move to optics-equipped handguns, and (b.) it might be worth considering later in the year (or next) if you are in the market for a new gun and optic.

  10. Hey guys, I have for sale or for trade an unfired Mossberg Shockwave in FDE. I have upgraded it with a top picatinny mount and a bolted-in side saddle w/ adjustable tension in each slot to account for varying width rounds. Unfortunately, I will be moving to CA next week and need to get rid of this beforehand. I would prefer an outright trade for another firearm that is CA legal. Also open to trades for ammo (.380, 9mm, .223/5.56). Cash price is $400. Located in downtown Nashville but willing to drive up to an hour or so away for the right deal. EDIT: it's a 12ga. It keeps saying there's an error uploading pics and I need to contact support; will keep trying but in the meantime I think I should still be able to PM pics.

  11. 870s and Mossberg 500 or 590s are the old standby, and a fantastic option. In particular I like the Magpul SGA stock options. The new semi-auto hotness is the Beretta 1300 or A300, but they are 2-3 times more expensive. Some caveats to add: 1) Shotguns are a thinking man’s gun if you want to run it well. Especially a dual use gun like you want. Get training on it and practice ammo management. 2) Put thought into your defensive round. I prefer Federal Flite Control, if you can find it. Contrary to conventional wisdom, you don’t want a wide spread. Pattern your gun at various distances and record your results.

  15. I tend to agree with this. I've had a 500 Cruiser in the bedroom closet for about 25 years. I don't hunt so I don't need the extra barrel but if I were buying today this would be considered. The extended tube on mine is great though. 8+1 00buck is good medicine.

  20. One can open carry a semi auto bazooka for all I care. What I will not do is disparaged, make fun of or call people names that may choose to do something different than myself. Seems we have enough attacks from the outside already. I bet if we all watched each other close enough we would find things about what we do with firearms that we do not like. Live and let live. Or maybe carry any way you want to.

  22. glock 45 (used but in very good condition). factory box with manual (no bore brush or rod or lock). one Glock factory 17 round mag included. what you see in the pictures is what you get. this is NOT an mos version. trying to "thin the herd" a bit and sell a few duplicate (or close) guns so letting this one go. i will NOT travel more than 25 miles from rocky hill in west knoxville (37919) to sell. buyer must show TN ID (prefer HCP) and be willing to sign a bill of sale to prove they can legally purchase. if you are not 100% legit please don't contact me. i will not sell to anyone that even has the hint of not being legal to purchase. happy to answer any questions or provide more information or pictures to seriously interested parties. $425 cash. i'm old school. no weird e-payments or checks. trades up or down considered but not likely. thanks for looking.

  29. I remember some pretty heated feuds with neighbor kids when I was younger over a kid having the unmitigated gall to track up the snow in another kid's yard before that kid was allowed to go out an play. If I scraped the snow off someone's dad's car before they came out to play, I expected to have to fight them later.

  33. Beauty! That's a real keeper, for sure. I have some of dad's guns. They were divided between my brother and I. My father was all about function, meaning accuracy. He modified every thing, to suit him, so their value has been greatly diminished. But I have four boys who will get them someday. They all want his Remington Rand 45. It was his hardball gun, when he was shooting National Match Course in the 60s.

  37. I went the Mossberg mdl 500 way. Had a youth model 20 Ga with a side saddle that held 6 rounds and 5 in the tube. It came with an 18 1/2' brl so I purchased a 28" brl for it and gave it to my grandson. I put the plug back in it so it would be legal to hunt with as it only holds 3 rounds in it now. He duck hunts with it. I have a mdl 500 in 12 Ga with a side saddle and 18 1/2" brl in my gun safe now. My 500 has an extended tube on it and it holds 8 rounds on board now. Fills my needs in the shot gun world.

  38. I haven't seen one in person obviously, but it looks like a very well thought out mounting process. It should be remarkably durable. One compliant I see/read is "Oh No! Not another mounting system!" LOL I get it. But we truly are still in the development stage of RDS on handguns. And this, for the reasons @TGO David, is, imho, a big step in the right direction of insuring durability. I only have 2 RDS EDC handguns. A G17 with a direct milled RMR and a G19 with a direct milled Holosun 509t. (ATEI) I really appreciate the cross cut mounting done for my 509t. It's rock solid. I do have a 407 Holosun on my Taurus .22 and a 507 on my Shockwave. But that isn't a good comparison to the beating taken by a RDS on a SD handgun slide. And honestly the size of the enclosed emitter of the 509 is not a "mailbox" sized attachment and carries and conceals quite well in my Dale Fricke Archangel AIWB holster. But it has a large enough window that it's remarkably easy to see. This COA looks to be smaller than the ACRO but with what appears to be a similar sized window. The very clever cut mounting looks like it will sink the sight fairly low allowing use of the proprietary Glock sights. And it looks to be strong. We'll see. I have no desire for one at this point in my life for one. But I'm interested in following this evolution. I think it's a pretty unique and clever collaboration. Just my opinion.

  42. We have 2 Bass Pro's in Memphis of which I usually frequent the one closest- Last time I was trying to purchase an ambi safety for an AR15-under lock and key behind glass- Time consumed trying to wrangle an employee with a key and then was told that item has to go behind gun counter until ready to check out- So now I am at gun counter waiting while a couple of chuckle heads try to figure out how the bolt in a Savage 110 goes back in that customer removed to inspect-more time consumed- Now am told to go down to far cash register and the employee down there would check you out-more time consumed- I stood at said cash register for 10 minutes listening to employee hash over breakfast with whom I assume is a relative or friend-more time consumed-I got so pissed off I had to leave-without the safety- I e-mailed customer service and explained my ire to only get a we are sorry you had a bad experience- My daughter is a co-manager at Bass Pro Pyramid and I suppose I could have pulled rank and explained why I will no longer spend any money at Bass Pro-but I don't feel like I should ambush her- PS-I order or buy all my firearms lately at Range USA-easy order system-

  43. I find OC to be a slippery slope. I can think of a couple of reasons the right to OC is important 1) in some states simply printing is considered open carrying, and if open carrying isn't legal in that jurisdiction the person can be charged. Legal OC prevents this. 2) in certain circumstances I prefer to OC but I'm not likely to encounter others while doing so, such as hiking and back country camping. So while I believe the right to open carry is important, I don't believe in doing so in public, which is tricky because I also believe that we will lose freedoms we don't exercise. Also, the last thing I want to deal with on a grocery run is some opinionated Karen, that is offended by the presence of my firearm. She will make a scene and I'm not going to educate her, or change her mind. If you are into those kinds of confrontations then open carry may be for you.
