OUCH! This is going to hurt a whole bunch of people. Say bye-bye to their cheap ammo.

Well, they look pretty good now. Nice job, guys!

I'm gonna be a nice guy, and let some of you know that you should take another look at the contest rules. I'd hate to see someone who put in all that work end up being disqualified for a technicality.

Personally, I prefer the .40S&W for many of the reasons already mentioned. That's what I carry. As far as the XDM goes, I sold mine before putting a single round through it. I'm a pretty damn big guy, and I thought it was too big for carry purposes. I'm sure it's a great range/competition gun, but not so much for carrying. I decided to stick with my XD40 4" Service Model. There couldn't be a more pefect carry gun for me. If there is, I haven't put my hands on one. In the end, it matters little what we think. Our opinions may shed some light on the situation, but in the end, YOU have to be comfortable with the choice you make.

Congrats to you and your son. That's great!

Your daughter should be slapping you for Halloween.

I completely clean my guns after every trip to the range. No exceptions. Welcome to TGO.

Not you! I was talking about TGO's favorite pervert, strickj. True, but we've come to love him. strickj, that is.

But how could anyone slap such a pretty face? Wait, it's probably not her face he'd be looking to smack.

I see your point there. I know little about the military, so I didn't think about that aspect of it.

I see nothing wrong with it. I wouldn't let my 9 year old daughter wear a costume like that, but for a someone your daughters age, I find it very humorous.

I agree. My route takes me all over Middle Tennessee and Kentucky, and I too have visited just about every gun shop in those areas. Very few are worth a second visit. I was just at a little shop (don't recall the name) in Hohenwald, TN, and like most others, it wasn't much worth the first trip, much less a second. They tend do have almost no stock, and if they do, it tends to consist of Hi-Points and way overpriced used garbage. I guess, in more rural areas, this type of gun store is better than no gun store, but I really feel bad for those forced to shop in them. Two of the best gun shops on my route would be Hero-Gear in Winchester, TN and Whitaker's in Owensboro, KY. Other than some of the bigger chain stores, I've NEVER seen such a selection of guns, ammo, knives, gear and accessories in my life as I did at Whitaker's. It's amazing. And from what I saw, the prices were about as fair as I've seen.

I'm not sure if they are exactly what you're looking for, but here are some. http://gunracks.tylerrose.com/index.htm

True, and I don't think it's Kosher for a Jewish guy to be riding b***h on a German motorcycle.

Well, once you get that AR built, you and I can ensure Hendersonville will be a safer place to live.

Be safe! Thank you for your service! Bring me home a wife!

Nice rifle! My best friends mother and step-father live in Navarre, Fl. Welcome to TGO!

School Name: Small Arms Training School (S.A.T.S) Location: Franklin, Tn (Williamson Co. Sheriff's Department) Primary Instructor: Jim Mauth HCP Class Cost: $75.00 Website: Unknown Phone number: 615-794-3333 Your Personal Experience: I highly recommend these folks. This was an eight hour (1 Day) course, split into two groups. While one group was watching the dreaded video, the other group was outside on the range. Somewhere around luch time (IIRC), the 2 groups would swap. There were roughly 5 or 6 total instructors, and every one of them did their best to make the day as enjoyable as possible. There was no shortage of humor all day long. They made the 8 hour day seem like a breeze. Again, I highly recommend these folks.

They should knock you back down to 100 for asking for a darn Glock.

That's why I could never understand why so many outdoor gun ranges use large areas of concrete.

1) The umpire had money on that game. and/or 2) The umpire is a LSU fan. Guaranteed! He didn't even think about moving out of the way.

What about ricochet? The bullet could easily cause serious injury if the bullet were to ricochet off hard ground. I was at a shooting event when someone had their muzzle pointed at the ground (concrete sidewalk/walkway) when he accidentally discharged his gun. The round ricocheted off the ground, and was imbedded into the side of a garage roughly 50-60 yards away. Not sure one is more likely thatn the other.

I know we have a few members who have a close relationship with GGC, maybe they would be willing to look into this for us.

I vote for creating a friendship with Gallatin Gun Club.

I'm glad everything turned out much better than it could have. No neighborhood is safe from this type of activity. Maybe she will consider some type of personal protection.
