Yeah, I wanted to like Oxford because it was so convenient to work but my first time there was bad enough that I didn't give them another shot.   ETA - each Uncle location has at least one senior barber as well but they charge a small upcharge for booking an appointment with them over the others.  I've had cuts by both before they did the upcharge thing and those guys/gals are definitely aces but Uncle seems to be fairly picky when hiring barbers to begin with and I've never had one of the non-senior barbers do me wrong on a hair cut.

Depends on how much you are willing to pay for a haircut.  I've been to Oxford as I work right across the street from it and I hated the way they cut my hair.  They were pretty reasonable on price though.  My favorite is Uncle though.  They are more expensive but they give the best hair cut(s), shaves, etc on a reliable basis that I've found outside of my old neighborhood barber who passed on many many years ago.  I've seen the Governor getting his hair cut at Uncle a few times while I was there at the Bell Meade location.   http://uncleclassicbarbershop.com/

Wow, me likey!  So based on the page you could step into an Aimpoint quality level red dot w/ 6x flip to side magnification w/ kill flash for $348.  I have several of the PA micro dots but this has me thinking about upgrading.

Don't know if the site is going offline every so often or something but tried again just now in Chrome, Safari, and IE 11 and each one cannot open the page.

I'm signed up just about everywhere including Cabela's, Midway, Aimsurplus, Luckygunner, Wideners, SgAmmo, USACsales and a few others too.  By signed up I mean mailing lists, facebook pages, twitter, you name it.  I have several alerts set up for email on slickguns that spam me everytime a deal is posted where a certain caliber is below a certain cents per round.  Steelcased .223 can be found in a lot of places for .28/.29 a round.  I walked into a Murfreesboro show a few months ago and picked up a case from an ammo seller there of .223 tulammo 55gr for .29/round out the door.  I'll concede that .22lr is still hard to come by currently but just about everything else has been in stock around the net a ton of times and with free shipping in some cases.  I also watch the forums here as well as ar15.com, akfiles.net, and theakforum.net for people selling ammo.  Back in the summer I picked up two cases of 5.45 from a lady in Brentwood who was advertising on akfiles; she was getting rid of her 5.45 ar upper and was offloading all of her 5.45 for super cheap.  Also, the CMP is still great for .30-06 as well.     Actually as I write this lanbo's armory has steel cased .223 by the case for .24 per round.  Better move fast though - you're welcome.. http://lanbosarmory.com/index.php?referrer=cnwr_4191340829622&main_page=product_info&products_id=2207

Don't get me wrong, I think the resellers ought to go stand in a fire somewhere, but why are people still buying ammo/hunting for ammo at walmart?  I haven't bought ammo from a local brick and mortar store in almost two years.  I buy all of mine in bulk usually from a small handful of different vendors online and I still come out way ahead of what wally world charges for it.  That's not to say that the online places don't also run out at times but most places have email/text alerts when things come into stock and its as easy as reaching for my cell phone to buy cases of whatever it is.  Just seems foreign to me in this day and age to go driving store to store locally to look for ammo.  Am I way off base here?

Like the guy and his channel.  His vids can get long winded but those make for great ride-home stuck in mid-tn commute traffic time killers.  I like that his reviews consist of more than just running 50-100 rounds through a particular gun on camera like a lot of the other big you tube channels do.  It appears to me that when he does a review, for better or worse, it is honest and there has been a good deal of time spent on it.

Dry and canned good yes but I was referring to the real stuff like milk, eggs, produce, meat, etc.  And the last time I checked they are only test marketing that in 3 west coast towns.

Well so far it seems like the most favored is the 1903A3.  Hersh - I sent you a PM about your reply.

It has already been touched on but it really depends on what you plan to use it for.  I hate seeing people drop 2k at best buy or apple for a facebook machine.  If my wife's laptop died today I would replace it with chromebook.  Can't speak for Tigerdirect but Newegg is good to go as well as Amazon of course.  Actually, if Amazon sold groceries, prescriptions, and alcohol I'd never shop anywhere else.  Except for guns and ammo of course  :rofl:

So the agreement with my better half is one rifle and 1 pistol per calendar year.  We are heading into tax return season and I just received my rifle from last year (a CMP M1 Garand) so I have been thinking a lot the last couple of days about what I should go for next.  I have a short list of the one's on the top of my mind but it is getting harder to choose just one.  I am more of a mil-surp kind of guy so most of what I'm after isn't exactly practical on the ammo availability end of the scale so don't let that be a major factor in your overall opinion.  So, here's the list and my initial thoughts on each one:   M1903-A3 - now that I am in the .30-06 club this sort of makes sense but it is tipping the scales on the budget and may have to skip the pistol purchase if I go this route for this year. K98/M48/M24-47 - I still do not have a true mauser in my collection.  I would probably steer more towards the Yugo's here.  I also do not currently stock 8mm Mauser ammo so this would be a new caliber to buy for as well. FN-49 (8mm) - I like the gun overall but this is probably nearer to the bottom of my list overall.  Also the 8mm ammo investment being a concern as well. Enfield SMLE MkIII - I already have a No. 4 and I would like to have the .303 Ishapore look-alike as well. FN-FAL - I don't really do much in the .308/7.62x51 realm these days but I used to have a very pristine Israeli Heavy Barrel kit built on an enterprise receiver a million years ago.  At one point I sold it and have sort of regretted it a little since.  I could probably squeeze out a nice Imbel parts kit and receiver but that would necessitate skipping a pistol purchase this year much the same way the 1903 would.  This would also sit for a while and wouldn't get built right away as it would take some more money down the line for the proper smithing or tools to do it myself. SKS - I have a good looking Norinco spiker from back in the day but would like a nice Russian, Yugo, or even a really nice Type 56 to go along with it; preferrably Russian though. Mosin 91/30 - Have a standard round receiver and a nice M44 from a while back but was thinking of a hex or maybe even stepping up to a PU version. M91 - have been hearing for a while that Zastava would be bringing in the M91 and if they did you can pretty much throw the rest of this list right out the window.  I am hearing now that they will be here this spring but that's been said a couple of times already in the past.   Hit up the poll and/or post comments below and thanks for the feedback!

My vote would be an M1 Garand or FN FAL variant.

Nuke it from orbit - its the only way to be sure..

Yep.  Maybe it would be better to get RK or even another promoter to start a really big show downtown at the new convention center?  Can you imagine if Nashville ended up playing host to a southern version of the Tulsa show or the Indy show?

LOL at these comments!  I did see this episode as well and I couldn't stop shaking my head and grumbling at the tv screen everytime he and his cohorts were on there.  the whole concept of "we really aren't prepping because our plan is to go full retard and try to take other people's stuff" speaks volumes about what kind of person he is.

why is it that Keltec can't seem to figure out how to make nice iron sights on their rifle products?

Yep, that sucks.  Is there a way to petition the fairground to not charge parking?  I'm in the same camp as most others that I refuse to pay for parking AND entry fee.  I wonder if there were any hendersonville specific vendors that will make the jump and join the murfreesboro show making it larger/better?  I also wonder if they will start having the murfreesboro show more often now?

As has been stated already - I don't understand why it needed to escalate to this.  The reports I've read indicate that this happened during the previews as well so the movie wasn't even really playing yet.  Not that it would be excusable if the film was rolling, just saying who gives two craps about the previews to the extent of starting a fight and taking someone's life over?  Ex cop should have just went to the theater management and had the guy kicked out or asked for a refund.

Saw it this afternoon and there was a large group of combat vets and their families in the theater also.  Very powerful, especially the credits (make sure to stick around if you can).  Lots of sniffles and applause as the lights came up.

Wait.. it's a work computer?  She even has an IT guy at work?  Has she asked them to provide a computer for her?  If it is medical field related there are all sorts of security and risk factors involved in using a home machine for work purposes.  I've worked in the medical and educational IT realm for the last 15 years and there's no way any of my previous employers would ever let someone use a non-company issued PC that wasn't locked down and secured for a work from home gig.

Not necessarily the easiest catalog to play around in but Brownell's and Midway both have huge selections of parts and tools.

Yep, the only two in the mid TN area that I plan on attending in the future is the Murfreesboro and Hendersonville shows.  Parking fees are ridiculous at the Nashville show and low vendor attendance at the Franklin, Lebanon, and Dickson shows prevent me from going back any more.

Horrible show. Don't waste your time or money.
