All good here in Hendersonville but the flooding is impressive - nearly the highest I've seen Old Hickory Lake. I'm worn out today. Last night our golden retriever climbed into bed with us and promptly claimed 3/4 of the queen size mattress, somehow.

Thanks to all who have posted in this thread. I have Lanier Concrete coming out in a few days to give me a quote, and I'll get in touch with Roy Goodwin this week.

I don't have experience with either, but I like using a 3x prism scope on an AR. For me it strikes the right balance between quick acquisition and helping see the 75-150 yard targets more clearly.

Congrats, Spots. Glad to hear things are going well. That is one of the coolest carry rigs I've ever seen!

Have you used a contractor in the Nashville/Hendersonville area for asphalt or concrete work? Please tell me about your experience. Thanks for anything you can share. I'm looking to have some driveway and patio work done at the house and I'd be grateful for firsthand info from folks who've "been there, done that."

To people who seek to tell others what to do, civil liberties are perennially offensive.

"As for the uncertain lot that the future has in store for me, why should I demand from fortune that she should give me this and that rather than demand from myself that I should not ask for them?" Seneca, Letter XV, Epistulae Morales.

I don't think .38SPL or revolvers generally are disappearing any time soon. I bought a good electric drill, but I kept my screwdrivers (and revolvers) and still use them where it makes sense. Revolvers still have applications where they shine. I'm a 30-something year old, if that matters.

To me a trainer stops being top tier when he teaches there is just one right answer for all situations and threats. I was taught to choose tactics by looking at all relevant factors, such as the mission, enemy, terrain, time available, etc. For example, when hiking and camping near GSMNP, a bear encounter's more likely than a disarming and mugging, so I open carry then.

Check out Burris, too. I have used a 3x Burris prism scope (model 332, I think) in several run and gun matches and it works well. Inexpensive, too.

"Fresh brisket on the board!"

To the top.

Bump for reduced price.

All PMs responded to. Thanks.

This. And I'm not saying the murder was justified; I'm saying a lot of prospective jurors would feel ripped off by insurance companies. It reminds me of the Bernie Goetz trial in NY years ago after he shot 4 or 5 would-be muggers. If memory serves, he was acquitted by the jury on all charges. What he said about the incident was something like, "Well, screw those guys - they... they were trying to rip me off!"

You just raised the bar, Defender!

KCT, thanks for your interest. Respectfully, I am not comfortable traveling to a different county to meet a brand new TGO member to then sell these items for less than my asking price.

Disappointed to read that story. I hope NCOs there are making sure their soldiers get fed, one way or another. Those NCOs should also be writing letters to their congressman asking him to initiate a congressional inquiry into the officers' actions.

You need to talk with TGO member Smith. He knows a ton about AKs and will get you sorted out. Incidentally, he's also a stand up guy.

Appreciate the OP starting this thread - news to me. Glad our state officials resisted this. Unfortunately, I expect more of the same antics from the federal government.
