  1. I think Samuel Colt had them beat by 180 years on this.  Nothing to see here IMO.  I don't think this is going to do anything that my 642 won't.  Speaking of which I don't think that gun has left the safe in a couple of years.  I NEVER carry it.  IMO opinion there are much better carry options on the auto side, and just for the record I do love shooting wheel guns.
  2. I'm assuming that a Lone Wolf barrel will put me in the modified class?
  3. Just curious as to the status of the guy that you are debating with.  Does he carry or does he just expect someone who is to come to his rescue?  If someone who is carrying feels compelled to go take out an active shooter then more power to them.  As for me my first priority is getting me and mine to safety, if taking out the shooter becomes an option during the course of that I'll do what I feel is best.  Everyone in the room that chose not to carry a gun that day may become disappointed if they were relying on me to protect them. 
  4. I love mine and so has everyone that I've let shoot it.  Guess I got lucky too.  Never a hiccup out of it either.
  5. I am 100% in favor of legal OC, I'm also 100% against acting like a donkey's rear while doing it.  I generally prefer to OC while hiking, fishing, etc. generally in a remote outdoor setting where I'm not going to come into contact with many people.  There is no need in getting the sheep all riled up no matter how much fun it can be.  I think the biggest issue responsible gun owners face on the subject of OC is the lack of discretion by most all of the people who OC in public places.  If this opinion offends you then suck it up butter cup. 
  6. You know what sounds really intriguing to me?  That last few months of work some of you talk about.  I don't think I could bring myself to do it.  I'd be calling in from a beach somewhere within 48 hours with a line like "Hey remember me?  I used to work for you back when I was poor."  Then I'd buy the company and fire everyone that had ever made my life difficult there.  Then again it would be kind of fun to just do whatever I wanted at work for 3 or 4 month and not really care what happened.  Nah, I'd take the money and run and hire a bunch of armed guards to follow me around, Bloomberg style. 
  7. Why do we have to take all the good stuff away from the Indians?
  8. I had just copied that from Facebook and was about to post it in the Hollywood actors thread.  Although I don't agree with Mike Rowe 100% he is still lightyears ahead of Washington/Hollywood and still a pretty decent guy IMO.
  9. Not exactly sure what you are looking for, if you don't know someone with land your best bet to hunt private land would be a lease.
  10. A Glock 17 or 19, and a 300 BLK upper with a can. 
  11. Sorry I can't get behind this measure.  I don't bow hunt but I do muzzle load and hunt modern rifle as well.  I may be inclined to support the measure more if I were more interested in archery than muzzle loading, but I'm not.  I made this decision when trying to figure how to best manage my time.  I had planned to hunt archery this past season and had this in mind when I bought my sportsman's license, but when it came time to get in the woods I just wanted to fish.  I can take plenty of deer during muzzle loader and gun season so I've decided to forego archery, and fish instead in order to best utilize my time in the outdoors.  I also disagree with the insinuation that shooting a modern muzzle loader is just like a single shot modern rifle.  In my experience it has not been and I still consider myself a student in training of the muzzle loading rifle.  Though I've had success muzzle loading over the past two seasons that I have tried it there have been several "hicups" along the way in which I would have taken a deer were I using a modern rifle, yet I was unable to do so with a muzzle loader.  Under optimal conditions a modern black power rifle may rival a conventional rifle in terms of accuracy and distance on a shot by shot basis but as anyone who has spent any time at all hunting knows conditions in the field are rarely optimal.  In addition to the challenge of hunting with a muzzle loader I also enjoy being able to hunt, what is a lot of years, the peak of the rut, before everyone hunting the modern rifle season is in the woods.  As a lifelong hunter I feel that taking a deer with a muzzle loader is much more challenging than taking a deer with a modern rifle.  Enough so that it still warrants its own two week season. 
  12. Think we could make him wet his pants if we had an oc demonstration in your front yard?
  13. Congratulations to your son I wish someone had given me a rifle when I earned my Eagle.
  14. Metro uses much more common sense in their laws than the City of Mt. Juliet does.
  15.   If I were in a situation in which gun politics had zero to do with my business I would keep my personal beliefs out of it.  I've been there in the past and was more than happy to take the money of people who no doubt had different views than I.  I like money so I had no inclination to alienate them.  Of course if I was some big time movie star with plenty of money I'd probably promote my agenda without caring what anyone thought.
  16. I've got time on my hands and now that deer season is over I have time to get involved.  Where can I find info on the Wednesday night matches?
  17. I never understood why these idiots think that because they have found success in the acting world anyone would care what their political opinions are.  It simply makes me treat them like supposed good chicken restaurants, give me a free side of your political views with your otherwise wonderful product and I'm not buying either.  Just sell me your great product and we'll both be happy.
  18.   Yeah this was a cool place to live growing up, our population has tripled in the past 15 years or so, evidently that extra 20,000 we got were a bunch of liberal bed wetters. 
  19. City ordinance prohibits bow hunting as well, plus I really don't care to take up any other hobbies right now.
  20. The local PD has been very clear that they don't care what we have to say.  Local game warden has told us that we are good to go because the land is zoned agricultural.  I plan to keep on hunting there and I am prepared to take it to court if need be, I figure the cost of an attorney to protect my honey hole is a lot less than the cost of a lease.  I just want to have my ducks in a row if we get there.  For whatever reason I cannot find the AGs opinion that I posted above on the TNAGs website, any help on that would be appreciated as well, I searched every opinion from 2001 and couldn't find anything. 
  21. I did find this attorney generals opinion on the subject from 2001.  I think this is good enough, if anyone has anything else to add I'm all ears.
  22. Yeah I figured as soon as OhShoot saw this we would have an answer, I've been scouring since I got up this morning.  I've heard too many dependable people tell me this, yet no one can seem to back it up.
