Let me start off with saying if you feel unable or unwilling to do the following care instructions then these aren't for you. Care Instructions 1. Keep your knife clean after each use. 2. You can wash your knife with soapy water. 3. Immediately dry off the knife. 4. Apply mineral oil or vegetable oil after use for long lasting results. 5. NEVER PUT YOUR KNIFE IN THE DISHWASHER!!! Made from 1/8" thick D-2 steel. Rockwell hardness is 58-60. They have camel bone and G10 handles. I'm not providing a block with these as one of the magnetic style blocks would be best. Your home and style and price range depends on what block you'd like. The magnetic blocks are all over Amazon, Ebay and o places. Price is $225 shipped for the set. I will only sell as a set.

IMO, the NRA is a useful whipping boy. They have the name recognition across pretty much the entire spectrum of political leanings. GOA, FPC, etc, not so much. And I like it that way. This gives the anti-gunners a big NRA-sized target and leaves those other orgs doing the actual work mostly left in peace to do what they do. The NRA is sort of a useful idiot.

I don’t care about the 200 dollars, I care about the pita process with the ATF and all the legalities of ownership. If I want to take my sbr into another state for a class, I shouldn’t have to ask permission.

Agreed, lesser of 2 evils. I will say, however, that the time to vote your conscience is in the GOP primary. The moderate/RINO seems to keep winning the big nominations instead of the conservatives.

You're right, the weather is about the same, but I'm getting old and I feel it more.

New guy trying to stir the pot. I've carried 1911s for about 40 years. Ain't dropped one yet.

I was saying this very thing to my wife- I noticed an awful lot of people there that are at least as old as I am if not older- There isn't enough money in the universe to get me at a action such as this- Those my age and older should stop and think of the real reason they are there in the first place- There are way too many that are believing the lies put out by leftist media- I would think that by the time you are old enough to start using Metamucil you wouldn't be foolish enough to believe everything you hear- And shame on your old ass for getting involved in stupid crap like all this in the first place-

I have what I believe to be is an unfired, LNIB Winchester 1886 Extra Light in 45-70 for sale. Made in Miroku, Japan. Includes a brand new and uninstalled Lyman receiver sight. This thing is absolutely beautiful. They don’t make this model anymore. $1300 cash FTF around Columbia to a Tennessee resident over 21 years old who is legally eligible to own firearms. HCP preferred. Not really looking for any specific trades but you never know. Could always use a Trijicon RMR HD.

The higher ups sure had a good time on our money. When they busted Wayne LaPierre on all his illegal perks to the tune of 5.2 million, it sure shined a light on their corruption. I was no longer an NRA member after almost 30 years. I'm sure we're kicking a dead horse here, but good to be reminded why gun owners should swing their support to Gun Owners of America and other such pro-gun organizations. Our local range, Middle Tn Sporting Association, voted to eliminate the long running requirement of belonging to the NRA to be a MTSA member last year. That vote easily passed.

@ TN Phil - The Taurus you mentioned is probably fine. A Ruger LCP or LC380, Shield, Taurus 605, Charter Arms .357, Rock Island M206, or used Glock would also serve just fine and not break the bank. If I had it to do over again, I would buy my first carry gun and then buy a good belt and holster, plenty of ammo, a way to carry reloads, a good light, frequent trips to the range, and classes on practical shooting - before buying another gun. You are starting a journey, not choosing a destination, and this stuff would help you get down the road smoothly.

Don’t get me wrong, a Taurus is adequate, but honestly, as I am reading it, I think your mindset on it is a bit messed up. You are naturally correct in focusing on carry gun before the (presumably more expensive) fun gun in a couple of months. But the carry gun is life saving equipment, and therefore not something to skimp on. Especially when significantly better arms to be had for minimal price differences. On this forum you can often see well cared for Glocks (for example) go $400 or less. Additionally (and this part often gets overlooked) all the other equipment like spare parts, magazines, and (especially) holsters are ubiquitous. I recommend people build these costs into the initial investment for the best return. Lastly, have you shot numerous models, to include the Taurus, for firsthand experience? Online opinions (mine included) mean Jack squat in the face of personal experience.

I think they’ll be alright. Ruger isn’t interested in the brand name, but they were interested in the manufacturing capacity. According to what I’ve read, those folks still have jobs.

Someone educate me, please. This parliamentarian dudette removed the part that took this stuff out of the NFA, but left in a reduction in the tax cost? Why the hell do we even allow a lib to be in that position when. We control the senate?

Voting for Democrats is a definite loser- Just look at the disaster any Democrat run city or state leaves- So not voting for the Conservatives is also not the answer-

In November, 2015 I decided to add a high capacity optic equipped pistol to my carry rotation. I had never even shot a S&W M&P but I am a S&W fan boy so I bought a new 4 1/4" M&P40 PC Ported and put a Type 1 (the only one made at that time) Trijicon 6.5 MOA RMR RM07 on it. I also installed the full Apex internals, everything that they sold for it. I tried a few different holsters and settled on the CompTac Flatline. Thousands of rounds through it and not a single malfunction of any kind. For defensive carry it is topped up with Federal 165 HST. When either of the M&Ps do nightstand duty they get a Streamlight TLR-1 A few years later I bought a 5" S&W M&P9 PC Ported and put a Trijicon Type 2 3.25 MOA RMR RM06 on it. It also has full Apex internals in it and rides in a BladeTech holster that I had used in IDPA for my S&W M&P9 Pro Series. About a half dozen years ago I decided I wanted a Trijicon RMR on a 1911. After looking at all of the "candidates" the least valuable one was a S&W SW1911 in .45 ACP that I had bought new in December of 2012. Because the Trijicon RMRs are wider than a 1911 slide Trijicon makes an adapter that includes a rear night sight and includes the front suppressor height night sight. After much research I decided to send the slide to Parker Mountain Machine, and I'm very glad that I did. I'm a retired Machinist, Tool & Die Maker, CAD/CAM Operator, CNC Programmer and Operator I can appreciate outstanding machine work when I see it. The machining is fantastic! I originally put a new Type 2 Trijicon 6.5 MOA RMR RM07 on it but later swapped with the M&P40 PC Ported as it gets shot and carried much more. I've already introduced the members to my S&W CSX with a 6 MOA SIG Romeo-X that is currently carried in a 1791 pancake holster. None of my revolvers have red dots, yet. Cheers James

I wasn’t saying ya’ll are fussing, just making a general comment about the yearly summertime drama the weather people and/or treehuggers stir up and the mentality of people nowadays: Guys at work: The high today is 106!! Global warming!! Me: No, the high is 93. Them: But TV/news/social media said 106! Me: That’s the heat index, a made up number. The temperature is the same as last year and the year before and the year before that. Them: But it’s 106!

I was finally able to pick up a Winchester 71. Been on the hunt for one for quite awhile. All the ones I wanted were in excellent shape and had the price tag to match. I found this one in an auction out west. It has seen a lot of use but that just gives it more character. The rear sight has been removed and a Lyman peep sight installed. I guess because of that nobody seemed interested and I picked it up pretty cheap. Now I just have to give it a good cleaning and put a few rounds through it.

Agreed. I'll give the seller another free bump (even though its already at the top). I've listed a lot of stuff here, GOC, & various other forums and groups. At $20/year, this is the most expensive (lol) of all of them and is so worth it. The amount of bs and riff raff it keeps out is well worth it. And the feedback here is far more reliable. I just wish it had more reach but that's also a double edged sword that comes with the aforementioned bs. All in all, I deal with far more confidence here than anywhere else.

I love Colts. I will always pick one up if I run across a good deal on one. Here is my current collection of Colts. Revolvers: Anacondas in .44 mag and .45 colt, Python, Officers Model Match in .38 spl and .22 and a Bankers Special in .38 S&W 1911's: 2 USMC Decom M45A1 CQB and a Lightweight Commander

I talked to my son-in-law yesterday and he told me the morning was fine and crew was getting job closer until 3 white vans showed up and 8 ICE agents got out. 30 minutes later he had to shut the job down because he was now 17 men less working. ICE arrested 17 illegals on his jobsite and took them away. They were all men from a Temp Service. He found out later that day that ICE went to the new Football Stateum Lost 48 Temp Company employees to ICE and they had to get more vans to pick them up. My son in law went to the office of the Temp Service to find out what was going on and why their Temp workers were put on jobs when they didn't have Green Cards and the guy said that they were not required to check for green cards. Son-in-law informed him that they would not be paying them for the half day and would not be back for workers anymore. Now with that said. If anyone on TGO is looking for a good paying job Liberty Construction is hiring legal citizens and Americans. If you are interested send me a PM and I will hook you up.

I know many don't like to speak of this, but it is a fact for all of mankind. The Bible says, "Every Knee will Bow before Christ." That means Yours and Mine. Do it in this realm, one is ok by faith, in the next realm, too late. Just come home from our nephew's funeral in Montgomery Alabama. He was our first extended family death, "Before His Time" we have experienced. Mark was 64. His death was totally unexpected. He had heart problems from about 18. May have had problems before that, but he found out, in the military, for sure. It was so bad they discharged him out of basic training. He entered training for the "Blue Beret" wing of the Air Force. The training was very strenuous. That is where he found out he had Heart problems. His wife and family are devastated. As we sat in the church yesterday, and saw all the people she had to greet, it was hard. He had 3 boys, one of which was killed in a stupid road rage situation, not his fault. Their son was 31. He was a passenger in a car and was thrown out and killed last year. His mother lost him and now her husband of 35 years. I was sitting there thinking, one had better be ready to meet God and Jesus, "NOW", because we are not knowing when our number will be called. Mark was a Christian. That is the only comfort his wife and family can gain from this situation. The son was a Christian also. Are you guys ready to go? I am. If not, you need to find Jesus and become a faithful follower of Him. Judgment is real and will be faced by all, in the next realm. "The Realm Of Departed Spirits." Learn about it from the pages of the/your Holy Bible. "It is truth, Guys!" Edited to add: Read about our impending death in (Luke 16:19-31) It is red letter text, straight from Jesus Christ words, recorded for us in Luke. That will be our next realm should Jesus not come back to earth before we meet our death first.

I’m north of Nashville. Asking $700.

My nephew came over today and had a used Sig 226 9 MM he purchased from the guy that purchased it new. We took it to my range and ran 30 rounds through it. He wanted to hold down the round count through it. Round total is now 48. The 226 looked brand new and not a scratch on it nor any holster wear. Still in original box with all paperwork. Great pistol. Haven't met a Sig I haven't liked. I gave my Sig 229 to my grandson. He is a 40 cal fan. Edited to add. My wife said for me to give our nephew a gun. Gave him my new 686 + 3 inch, when I am through with it. Also gave my Grandson my Ruger MIni 14 Ranch Hand 223/556 2nd generation carbine when he was here last week. Going to take it to him in Sept when we travel to S Carolina and let him borrow it until I am through with it. Really thinning my collection so my wife will not be bothered with giving them away.

FFS Fuddclowns, just shut up. GOA and NAGR are doing all the heavy lifting with FPC helping. NRA is a dinosaur org, full of corruption, which has engaged in a symbiotic relationship with the jack-booted baby burners of the ATF in a kabuki theater of "muh activism". Been sick of it for a decade, and then some. FU NRA, go away.

Recently purchased new, Ruger Single Ten stainless steel 4.62" barrel 10-shot .22lr single action. Has seen one range session, shoots well. Includes original box, papers, etc. Asking $650 I'm located in Tipton Co., willing to meet at a reasonable distance, buyer must be of legal age, not be prohibited from possessing firearms, provide current valid TN DL or ID, TN CCW permit preferred and be willing to sign a bill of sale. Must ship to your FFL if not a TN resident and can ship to your FFL if meeting in TN is not feasible. Not interested in any trades and price is negotiable, can accept USPS MO or other digital payment methods.

We've had this discussion before on here a few times. But I'm still of a mind that the NRA shouldn't be doing anything that isn't related to firearm safety, training, and education. They lost the plot going into legislative influence, and didn't do much of a good job. Let GOA handle all that, and SAF can work the courts.

Lol. I have to agree, I feel exactly like the @MEGASTAR regarding the NRA.

The Durham County GOP had a raffle. They would give away one gun a day through May. $30 a ticket. They texted me that I had won a Winchester Defender pump action 12ga. I was so excited. I picked up the shotgun and bought 100 rounds of 00 buck shot. Unfortunately, I just had my shoulder replaced and cannot shoot it until September. I have a few shotguns but not a 12ga pump. This Defender is made in Turkey. I have a Remington Wingmaster 16ga that I have had since the 1960s. It is smooth as butter and will rack a shell with one hand. When I raise it to my shoulder I am automatically looking down the barrel. It is a beautiful shotgun that has put a lot of meat on the table. This Defender......not so much. I am 6'2" and I have to reach for the forearm to rack the slide. There is nothing smooth about this shotgun. I could buy a new stock for it but that would cost as much as the gun is worth. I think it needs some breaking in, so in September I'm going to run that buck shot through it. It is camouflaged, so I got that going for me.

Smith and Wesson Model 19-4. Pinned and recessed. Asking $900 obo. Located in the Chattanooga area. Need to have a valid TN license and be 21 or older.

Extra props to the deacon who deployed his concealed F150

Well, lots of noise about drops and NDs. Not in the habit, y e t, of dropping handguns. 320s have had their issues, 1911s, SA revolvers, and then don’t forget shotguns are not drop safe and I can’t tell you how many I’ve witnessed in the duck blind, but luckily none fired….multiply that nationwide every season. I don’t think I would make that issue the top of my list on which gun to carry unless dropping things routinely is your MO.

I have a good friend that has gifted me a number of fine firearms. He stopped up a few Saturdays ago and had a pair of 25s that he thought I would enjoy. A gorgeous 25-5 in .45 Long Colt An equally beautiful 25-2 in .45 ACP with original barrel. The hard chrome finish is spectacular and very durable. They were plated 25+ years ago and the 25-2 in .45 ACP has but the fainest turn line. I shot a 4" 625-3 in IDPA for some years and a 5" 625-4 in USPSA and sold both of them when I stopped shooting them so I'm looking forward to getting some .45 ACP moon clip shooting in (I still have my 646). I can't recall ever having shot a .45 LC so that will be a new experience. Cheers James
