you can soften your 9mm with reloaded 147gr. some even use 165 gr,

Price is 1.0, rebate is either.

also note that I have seen the shield priced in the knoxville area for around $250. Plus S&W rebate for military active, retired , or honorably discharged for $40.

I’ve carried a 1.0 Shield almost daily for 5 yrs. Shoot it often. Stock except for ameriglo yellow night sight. I have a safety on mine. Completely reliable, easily concealed. Remember as your round count increases so does the weight. There is a reason it is one of the top selling handguns.

No surprise to me; same old Taurus. Looking for an inexpensive pistol go with the SCCY. Lifetime warranty no matter who made the purchase.

I don't know, but doesn't this RED FLAG LAW for guns apply equally to rape? Remember that guy, Brett Kavanaugh?

Just a FYI for anyone that finds themself in the situation and have an OP. One can immediately obtain a HCP, valid only in TN for 60days. Time enough to take a class for a reg. HCP in the interim. Just follow 39-17-1365.

Remington R1 is a nice, solid gun in various configurations. If you are looking to buy once, get a Dan Wesson.

M&P full-size 2.0

Discharge of a gun in the city for 1. Possession of a handgun while consuming 2. Impairment not a requirement....just influence, and that is one sip. Child endangerment 3. Fleeing the scene 4. All wrapped up with a 'consciousness of guilt' by fleeing. Wouldn't want to be that guy.

new SCCY 169, holds 10 +1. Reliable. Shield 269. Either before Taurus IMO.

IMO yes. The statue deals with the permit in regard to a violation. However, alcohol consumption will in all likelihood complicate the investigation and your defense. In turn, expect a corresponding increase in your legal fee.

My mother and family are from Russell Co. , all early and pre 1900s.

Yes indeed, congrats to CHL on the turbo. Those times are based on the times of the elite shooters, and therefore those pins are definitely earned, not given, through dedicated practice in “ pistol marshal arts.” Also thanks to CHL for guiding and instruction in my journey of defensive pistol shooting. Gabe White is truly a professor in pistol shooting, both for competition and defensive use. It was a great class and getting to rub elbows with very skilled classmates, some known throughout the pistol community, was an awesome experience.

I carry to 1.0 shield with safety. perfectly happy. I have shot the 2.0. A little nicer for the reasons mentioned, but no difference as a carry gun except for the highly textured grip. If you wear it next to your skin you will wind up sandpapering the panel down. J Floyd had the 1.0 without safety for 269. I like either, just personal preference and cost issue.

Like him or hate him, that was a very good discussion on an aspect of TN law that can be enlightening and beneficial to readers. Granted, a little more civility was in order and that should have taken place with the mods and vendor rules adhered to. Always enjoy the legal discussion on SD.

Got to admit I am a Branca fan. Took his daylong class in Nashville couple years ago. Read his book a couple of times. Never miss his weekly webinar. The guy is endorsed by Massad and about every gun show host in the country. I think he gives solid info, but like most things there are two sides to most positions. However, if you carry a gun it would be prudent to give his book a read.

Also don’t forget J Floyd’s Just down the road on the left. Sometimes better pricing....9mm Shield 269 now

You all do know 'weed' is legal in Colorado, right?

to me the versacarry works very well with small guns, esp. the LCP. The only combo that I can carry comfortably and safely appendix. Also works around the side at 3 or 5 easily.

yes it is a large store with a 20 lane indoor range. Rental counter. Rifles allowed. Clothing. In other words, a big 'candy' store.

Certainly your perogative. And better not to say anything than to talk indiscriminately. However, I continue to educate myself on this subject by personally attending classes plus reading articles by known authors with expertise in this area. Nothing wrong with helping your attorney help you. Hopefully neither of us has to experience this.

From slingshot to B.B. to an old buldged barrel single shot 20ga that belonged to my dad and uncle. From bird,duck,dove hunting for a number of years. Then it was my son’s first gun as well. Still have it. Probably not worth more than $40 tops but the most valuable gun I have.

Have the original plus the desantis nemesis holster. Use a VersaCarry device with it occasionally. Have shot it as a BUG in a match. Certainly adequate but bigger guns much more fun, faster, and accurate. But a great gun for its purpose.
