Welcome, Hoosierdood. I moved to Tennessee from Anderson, Indiana, in 2000 and I love it (miss my family, though). I live in Tullahoma, about equidistant from Nashville, Chattanooga, and Huntsville, AL. There's a lot to like here and the TGO members are exceptionally knowledgeable and helpful.

My wife and I currently own an M&P Shield 40, M&P 9c, and M&P 40 full size. Plus I have a Boberg XR9s. I also have owned a Nano (gave it to my adult son). All are super reliable and good shooting guns but the Shield has the best shooting trigger of all. The Nano is too blocky-shaped (like a Glock) in my opinion to be a good deep carry gun. That's why I got rid of it. The Shield is smoother and more rounded, easier to conceal. I alternate between it and the Boberg for daily carry. I have a S&W 442 .38 Spl. I use for pocket carry when I ride my motorcycle or wear dressier clothes.

I'd forgo the supercharger and go with an RV type cam, K&N air filter setup and torque-specific chip.

Welcome, Jim. Tell me about your motorcycles. I live in Tullahoma (abt. 70 miles S of Nashville). I've been riding motorcycles since 1966 (1966 Benelli 125 that I ran my paper route with).

Places like Ace Hardware, Lowe's, etc will have the right anchors.  They will also have drills for drilling concrete,  basically carbide inserted tips on the drill that effectively scrape the concrete away in the shape of a hole! Keep the hole cleared of the dust often or it'll jam up and break your drill or sprain your wrist when it grabs.

Two part epoxy is what I'd use to seal the holes.

Welcome, Nadia. I'm a Yankee transplant, too. I moved from Indiana 12+ years ago.

My pets are all great swimmers: I have 4 aquariums set up in my home office. These guys are my frontosa colony.

  Same here IF I only ordered one gun at a time. Once I ordered two at once.  One of them was listed as a "rapid ship" or whatever they call it. The other was not. They shipped together at the slower rate, and I'm a VIP member, supposed to get preferential treatment. Other than that, everything has gone great with them but I haven't ordered anything in the "Great Gun Panic of 2012/2013."

I traded a couple of revolvers for a 1970 Harley Davidson golf cart to use when I'm working car shows.

I'd be up for that once in awhile. By Saturday, I'm ready to get out of the home office and talk with like-minded folks.

Well, at least with a 6mm, you won't have to compete with many people for the ammo on the shelves! Welcome.   If you're into activism, check out Tennessee Firearms Association (www.tfaonline.org). TFA also has a pretty active Facebook presence (http://www.facebook.com/groups/TennesseeFirearms/).

  True but the part about consignments seems to not be well enforced. I've put guns on consignment and each place told me that if I came to pick up the gun, I'd have to do the TICS check. In all 3 cases (3 shops), they didn't do one.
