I use Shooter's Choice FP-10 Lubricant Elite. I noticed that BassPro carries FP-10 at their Nashville location. Some lubricants are great at rust protection however are not good as a lubrication and vice versa. I believe FP-10 provides the best of both.

Citizens file notice to recall Councilwoman Pam Murray
threeshot replied to threeshot's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Committee close to forcing Murray recall election | Nashville City Paper: Nashville's Online Source for Daily News Tuesday, August 18, 2009 at 6:39pm By Nate Rau [/url] A campaign committee is close to having enough signatures to force a recall election of District 5 Metro Councilwoman Pam Murray, according to a media release sent on Tuesday. As first reported by The City Paper, the group filed a notice to recall the second-term Councilwoman on Aug. 14. A recall election requires 15 percent of the registered voters in the district, which would be about 900 voters. On Saturday about 30 District 5 residents canvassed the area to garner the necessary signatures. Murray reportedly hosted a Stop the Recall meeting on Monday evening, although this was unconfirmed and various attempts to reach her were unsuccessful. “The Metro Council sets our property taxes, votes on the budget, which includes our school board’s budget, and decides our zoning laws,†read a press release from the campaign committee We the People of District 5. “We are currently suffering economic turmoil. The last thing we need during these times is for our representative on Council spending most of their life working in Detroit, Michigan.†Murray was not immediately available for comment. The press release references media reports that Murray lives a majority of the time in Detroit, where she works as a social worker at a methadone clinic. Murray led the charge to rezone a Cleveland Street property, which faced stringent opposition from District 5 residents. The zoning bill was ultimately withdrawn when it was apparent the bill would not pass. An ethics complaint was also filed against Murray with the state ethics commission, alleging she lied on her ethics disclosure forms. The complaint is still pending. The campaign committee has until Sept. 14 to submit the necessary signatures to the Metro Clerk. If the signatures are verified by the Election Commission, a recall election would be held within 60 days. -

Did anyone notice later in the program when Gunny was at discussing the 9mm Beretta with the other marine officer inside Quantico gun lab that Gunny had a mark/bruise above his left eyebrow? I think either the .44 or the .50 hit him above the eye with the front sight.

Citizens file notice to recall Councilwoman Murray | Nashville City Paper: Nashville's Online Source for Daily News Friday, August 14, 2009 at 4:19pm By Nate Rau A notice to recall controversial Councilwoman Pam Murray was filed with the Metro Clerk’s office on Friday, The City Paper has learned. The East Nashville Councilwoman has been under scrutiny since earlier this year when she supported a proposed zoning bill that had divided her District 5 neighborhood. Murray supported a zoning change that would have brought apartments to a Cleveland Street property, which previously served as a junkyard. Residents said Murray was ignoring their opposition by going forward with the zoning bill, which after considerable resistance, was withdrawn by the property owner once it was clear the bill would likely not pass through Council. “The reason why the removal of Pam Murray is being sought is because of the dereliction of her duties and responsibilities to represent the residents of Councilmanic District 5,†the recall notice reads. Murray also was the object of a story by NewsChannel5, which showed she lived a majority of the time in Detroit, where she works as a social worker for a methadone clinic. As was first reported by The City Paper, Murray had an ethics complaint filed against her with the state ethics commission. The complaint, filed by a constituent, is still pending. The City Paper was also the first to report that District 8 Councilwoman Karen Bennett called Metro Police following a community meeting, claiming a group with Murray threatened her. In order to force a recall vote, 15 percent of the District 5 voters in the previous countywide election must sign the petition.

BTW: All guns have a paper trail from the gun manufacture, to the gun shop and then to the buyer at said gun shop.

Chattanooga Times Free Press | Police shooting victim had 43 wounds Video Chattanooga Times Free Press | Video: Police shooting victim had 43 wounds Tuesday, Aug. 4, 2009 Police shooting victim had 43 wounds Six Chattanooga police officers fired 59 bullets to subdue a suicidal armed man last month, a police spokeswoman said today. A preliminary autopsy report shows the victim, Alonzo A. Heyward, 32, had 43 bullet holes in his body. Without question, those wounds led to his death, the medical examiner's report indicates. But police said the use of force wasn't excessive. "When we are trained to shoot, we are trained to shoot until we subdue the threat," said Lt. Kim Noorbergen, police spokeswoman. "We are not trained to shoot to kill, as many people think." Mr. Heyward was pointing a shotgun at his face outside the McDonald's restaurant on Rossville Boulevard in the early morning hours of July 18 when approached by police, according to previous police statements. Officers followed Mr. Heyward to his home on Seventh Avenue, continually asking him to disarm, but Mr. Heyward didn't comply, police have said. On Monday, Chattanooga police released an audio recording of the encounter. The recording comes from the microphone of Officer Lauren Bacha, who apparently arrived at the scene after Mr. Heyward already was on the porch of his home. One neighbor is heard telling officers that Mr. Heyward had been threatening to kill himself all day and had been drinking. Police say that once on the porch at his house, Mr. Heyward pointed his weapon at them, and that's when they used a stun gun. When that didn't work, the officers resorted to deadly force. The audio plays out as a heated exchange between Mr. Heyward and police, followed by the sound of Mr. Heyward being hit with an electric stun gun and then three volleys of gunshots. Lt. Noorbergen said those three gunfire bursts indicate officers didn't think the threat posed by Mr. Heyward and his gun was quashed. "You hear a five-second delay and then more gunfire," Lt. Noorbergen said. "In these situations we do what it takes to stop the threat." The autopsy report, which is not yet final, details gunshot wounds on nearly every part of Mr. Heyward's 5-foot-9-inch, 180-pound body. Bullet holes were present from his chin to his ankle, but Lt. Noorbergen said it's not clear which of those were entry or exit wounds. "In one case we know there were three wounds for one gunshot," Lt. Noorbergen said, explaining a bullet entered one part of the body, exited and then entered another part. But the officers did fire a total of 59 rounds at Mr. Heyward, the lieutenant said. A standard .45-caliber pistol holds nine bullets, but not all officers carry the same weapon, she said. From the start, Mr. Heyward's family has questioned the use of force. No one was at the Seventh Avenue residence on Monday. "It was like they had machine guns, all shooting," said James Heyward, shortly after the shooting. "All the officers fired a round. (Alonzo) said he didn't want to hurt anybody, he just wanted to hurt himself." Medical Examiner Report http://media.timesfreepress.com/docs/2009/08/43bulletwounds.pdf

Why does Federal mark the HST ammo as Law Enforcement? You have to go to a different website to even find information about HST verses the main Federal site. LE - Home Are there any laws the prevent purchasing of ammo that is marked Law Enforcement?

I assume this would be the same procedure for a two or more story house where the safe will be in the upstairs master bedroom. In order to place a metal plate under the floor, you are going to need to remove the carpeting in the location where you plan to put the safe in order to cutout a hole in the floor near where you will place the safe so that you can place a metal plate under the floor or remove the entire subflooring. Repair cutout or subflooring with the bolts through the floor with metal plate, cut holes in the carpet for the bolts and lay carpet back down. Mount the safe. I can see a thief using a crowbar to rip the safe from the floor, including the steel plate. Take the entire small safe and break it open later or at your home.

For LEOs in uniform, that statement would be acceptable. For conceal holders, how did the person with the taser know in advance that you had a gun?
-
Are these special bolts that prevent you from using common hand tools to remove the bolts?

gun safe modification - it it ok?
threeshot replied to wileecoyote's topic in Gunsmithing & Troubleshooting
On a different issue, what is the fire rating of the particleboard inside the safe? I am assuming that the original board was fire resistant to avoid burning once the outside of the safe gets hot to achieve a certain fire rating of the safe. -
Unless there are more than one perpetrator.

I noticed that WSMV still has their poll asking the question "Should guns be allowed in areas where alcohol is served?" at the bottom of the homepage even though it as become law. It makes me wonder if the reason WSMV is still running the poll is due to the judge order a hearing within the next 90 days as opponents continue to challenge the law. BTW: Current results are: Yes: 36% - 865 votes No: 64% - 1543 votes

Guns likely out in Franklin parks | tennessean.com | The Tennessean Vote to opt out of state law set for July 28 By Kevin Walters • THE TENNESSEAN • July 16, 2009 FRANKLIN — Franklin's city parks will likely remain off-limits to guns owned legally and illegally, if discussions aldermen had Tuesday about the matter are any indication. On Sept. 1, state law will allow permit holders to bring their guns to parks, unless local governments opt out of the law. Brentwood and Williamson County voted this week to opt out. Franklin aldermen will vote July 28. City Administrator Eric Stuckey, Police Chief Jackie Moore and Parks Director Lisa Clayton told aldermen they have safety concerns about allowing guns in heavily used city parks. They also mentioned the legal conflict in the use of parks by children from county and Franklin Special School District schools. Alderman Bev Burger wants to seek a state attorney general's opinion seeking greater clarity about laws pertaining to schools' use of facilities where guns are allowed. Alderman Dana McLendon, who supports the state law, was wearing an empty holster at the meeting. McLendon talked about the safety of gun owners and the need to make a rational decision about the divisive issue. "Let's don't make the decision in an irrational, emotional misguided way," McLendon said. Aldermen Ken Moore, Mike Skinner and Clyde Barnhill were skeptical about allowing guns in parks while Pearl Bransford admitted she hadn't made up her mind, though she said her husband has a carry permit. Burger, who has said she's applying for her own carry permit, said she's received 66 e-mails from residents in favor of allowing guns in city parks and only 18 against. Franklin Mayor John Schroer, who wants the city to opt out, also said he is against a "sunset clause" similar to the county's opt out, which expires in a year.
