  1. Got some driving/listening time coming in the next couple of days. I have trained with "the Weems guy' and Randy. Both top notch trainers and feel fortunate to be able to benefit from their knowledge.
  2. Totally avoidable by the homeowner. He left the intruder and was in the safety of his own home. Came back out armed and shot the guy. Should have called the police. IMO, stupid, murder. Will have a lot of time sitting in a cell figuring other options he should have taken.
  3. FWIW, I have one of these when imported by Remington. Built like a tank. Great O/U for hunting and have used it and loaned it for clay games. Love to have one in a 20ga.
  4. I appreciate all who devote time to legislative issues; be it in person, phone call, or simply an email. We are all on the same side here. Forums are difficult to share emotion and can often be misread.

    Carry History

    started with the M&P shield and haven't found anything else that I like better. Round count over 10 does not interest me at all. Just added weight. Shoots well, easy on and off with Desantis Peagusus holster. Goes at 4-5 carry or appendix with ease. Lot of nice, small quality guns, but nothing I see as 'better' for me.
  6. I prefer any of my M&P 9mm, For two legged critters and larger 4 legged critters, simply carry regular loads of your preference. Carry a spare mag with CCI pellet loads and slip it in when needed.

    1911A1

    I have one of the early Remington R1. Runs like a champ. Two courses with over 600 rds each and not a single problem, all factory ammo. Gave it to my son. Have a competent gunsmith, preferably a '1911' guy check it out.
  8. yes, one of the advantages that the CCP has as well.
  9. Free to a good home . In Knoxville to pick up - about 100 pieces

  10. Very few people are taking the ECP course. Folks don’t know what they don’t know. Permitless carry has limitations. ECP is still the way to go.
  11. If you mow up a slope, hold on, it may pop a wheelie. Can't pull implements and control from driver's seat. If you have large, flat acreage probably the way to go. I like the big Deeres, 350 and up, especially if you need to fertilize, etc with it.
  12. Message me contact number. Will call Saturday
  13. I would recommend you stick to the 12ga for your clay shooting. Trap and & SC are 12ga games. Ammo is cheaper and more readily available. 30" bbls good choice unless you are a larger person...then maybe the 32". Heavier gun= less recoil. 12 also has more flexibility with loads to lessen your recoil as well.
  14. Have 5000 LPP.....if you have SPP.
  15. I do have the special expander, not an expensive item, that does it all in one station. Most advocate seat and crimp as separate steps for best results as well.
  16. The LNL has 5 stations, big advantage for a lock out die as well as separate seat and crimp process. Autu index works just fine, as a progressive press should. They all have idiosyncrasies, but in my opinion, superior to the 550. Compare apples to apples look at the 650.
  17. I have the Hornady LNL as does one of my fellow shooters. We each have loaded thousands of rounds over the past 7 or so years. No big issues and Hornady has been right there for help if needed.
  18. You should politely tell Whole Paycheck that as long as they are posted you will take your business elsewhere.
  19. No effect if shooting North
  20. other prohibitive elements to carrying a firearm in TN (f) (1) A person commits an offense who possesses a firearm, as defined in § 39-11-106(a), and: (A) Has been convicted of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence as defined in 18 U.S.C. § 921, and is still subject to the disabilities of such a conviction; (B) Is, at the time of the possession, subject to an order of protection that fully complies with 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(8); or (C) Is prohibited from possessing a firearm under any other state or federal law. (h) (1) A person commits an offense who carries, with the intent to go armed, a firearm and: (A) Has been convicted of stalking as prohibited by § 39-17-315; (B) Has been convicted of the offense of driving under the influence of an intoxicant in this or any other state two (2) or more times within the prior ten (10) years or one (1) time within the prior five (5) years; (C) Has been adjudicated as a mental defective, judicially committed to or hospitalized in a mental institution pursuant to title 33, or had a court appoint a conservator for the person by reason of a mental defect; or (D) Is otherwise prohibited from possessing a firearm by 18 U.S.C. 922(g) as it existed on January 1, 2021. (2) An offense under subdivision (h)(1) is a Class B misdemeanor. Additionally, without a permit one cannot carry in county,city, state, or national parks. Federal law prohibits possession of a firearm in a school zone without a permit. Also IMO open carry is a bad idea in general and should be avoided -- Legally posted property applies to all civilians as a general rule, with or without a permit.
  21. 686 Beretta listed in classifieds
  22. Tenn. Code Ann. § 39-17-1315 Federal buildings will be off limits Judicial proceedings
  23. Go up to Iron Mtn. sporting clays at the 407 exit. Hang out there and chat up with the shooters...IMO avoid the 101 and Red Label. I have had both and the recoil is heavier. The x25 series guns from Browning will serve fine. The Berettas mentioned will also. Skeet and trap are not as popular as they once were, but both are fun. Sporting clays is the main attraction now and it is basically a 12ga game, as is trap. The 12 can be 'loaded lite' and be just fine for shooters of all ages. Fit is important, but don't worry too much about it. The human body is very adaptable as long as one is comfortable in handling the gun, especially with the LOP (length of pull)
