1000ct Ginex Small Pistol Primers Thompson's Station, TN area. I can meet, do PPU or drop off within 15 miles of Thompson's Station.

(I ended up with these from a Lumber Liquidators store credit. No need for flooring right now, and these are some of the better things they had in the way of tools. Both are unopened, sitting in my garage.) I would take $250, but my preference would be to trade for a revolver in 22lr. Franklin/Thompson's Station area.

Cool. Anybody have any direct experience with Stoeger Condor Supremes?

20ga 3" chamber E.R. Amantino and Condor Supreme on one side Gaucha-IGA Made in Brazil on the other Imported by Stoeger-NJ So, I'm guessing this isn't a Stoeger gun, just an import by them? They seem to go for a little bit more than their Stoeger counterparts that I can find on GB. Any experience from the forum?

Both. 5'8" and 165lbs. My Sig P250 Compact disappears under an untucked polo in an MTAC. Many on this board have similar experiences, I think.

Have you tried an MTAC as well as a belly band?

This has been said many times on this forum, but the cheapest way to improve the accuracy and reliability of a 1911 is to.............wait for it........... trade it in for a Sig P220.

I had some FTFs and FTEs during maybe the first 200rds from my 250c 9mm. Just a break in period, as far as I can tell. Since then, I've had 400+ rounds with no FTFs or FTEs.

This show and Burn Notice are the only television shows I've been excited about for several years.

Another +1. It isn't the mechanical accuracy that makes this gun so great. The gun points extremely easily and is one of the easiest I've used to rapidly reacquire a sight picture. The slimness also makes it great for CC.

I'm an avid Dave listener myself. Congrats!

Hmm. I'm of the school of thought that if the officer wants to know, they'll ask, and I'm then happy to comply. I've gotten pulled twice over the past two weeks, armed both times. 1st time: I wasn't aware that a brake light had gone out. I handed my DL when asked. He ran it, told me to get the light taken care of and have a nice day. He didn't request my HCP, registration or insurance..... 2nd time: The officer pulled me over and gruffly suggested I'd just made an unsafe right hand turn. I told him I didn't understand, as I stopped completely, and made sure it was clear before turning. It was a very busy intersection, but nothing unsafe occured. He ran my DL, and told me to be more careful next time, but no request for HCP, registration, or insurance.... In the first case, I think the officer was just being helpful. In the second, I think the officer was just fishing. However, neither asked for an HCP or gave any citation.

I compared the MK9 and K9 (basically its big brother), and eventually went with the K9. The MK9 is a tad too hefty for pocket carry (The PM9 is a great weight, but Kahr has a better rep regarding their all metal offerings). For IWB or belt carry, I'd highly suggest considering the K9 (a bit easier to shoot well-longer sight radius, and an increase in capacity). It is still not a light gun, but it disappears in an MTAC. **I don't know if Kahr has made strides in the reliability of their polymer line. Maybe they have. If so, definitely worth considering.

Do I think the government has some responsibility for policy that encourages keeping jobs on US soil? Sure. I'm pretty sure that most of the workers at the Nissan plant in Smyrna are American. We aren't flying folks in to do those jobs quite yet. If Tennessee was a union state, I doubt that plant would be in existence. In the current debacle we're discussing, trade unions are a much bigger contributor than outsourcing to other countries.

If it is a job that someone with no formal education and English as a second language can do successfully from thousands of miles away, I'm not sure that the "high pay" was justified. As for doctors, I'm not familiar with any risk of outsourcing there. I'd imagine the costs of transport to India for head surgery would cut into any possible savings in labor. That is one of those "outsourcing proof" jobs. It basically comes down to the value of certain skills in the marketplace. However, I'm also a big fan of tariffs, reducing the incentive to bring in goods from foreign countries (a solution to the foreign car "problem"), and a similar effect can be had on labor through legislation.

Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Mercedes, and others all have plants in the US, and are not having anywhere near the financial problems of the Big Three. No unions, so their workers get paid what the market will bear.

Is anyone on this board a garage door master, professionally or as a hobby? I have an extension spring garage door that has worked ok for the past year or so, but some parts broke off this morning. I don't want to spend the 4-5 hours it would take for me to fix it, when I'm sure someone who knows what they're doing could do it in one. An extension spring fix would be fine, I'd also be interested in switching to a torsion system if you have the equipment and knowledge. This can be a cash (or I have an Astra .38 and a Smith Model 10 revolver for trade if you're interested) deal this evening or Wednesday or Thursday, the sooner the better. Donelson (Nashville) area. PM me.

Any recommendations from folks who carry a full size semiauto in a shoulder holster?

I'm trying to decide on a carry method for my P226. Given the size of the gun, I'm considering shoulder holsters. Do any of you find shoulder holster carry practical, or use it on a regular basis? For those of you with shoulder holsters, what model(s) do you find useful? Finally, do any retailers in the Nashville area have a wide variety to examine? Most of the stores I'm familiar with only have 1-2 various models in stock at any given time.

Pleasure to do business with, even if it was by proxy.

This was not clear in the original post, but when the registration of the vehicle was run, the registered owner (who is present) shows as having a HCP. I have no insight into how fancy cop databases work, but that is what was suggested by the OP. I do agree that without the HCP flag, all this other stuff would be a nonissue, and the folks would just be on their way home.

Gotcha, so the registration was in your name, thus the HCP flag. I have a car with a trunk, so my weapon would (and has, in similar situations) gone in the trunk. If you're willing to say no to a search request, it looks like the best answer is "I'm not sure" to the question about weapons in the vehicle. If one is unwilling to deny a search request, say "Yes" and bend over and take it.

Oh boy. Let's not open that can of worms..... I guess my question is, what is the reasonable suspicion towards the passenger that turns the interaction into an investigatory one? Suspicion of underage drinking? Something else?
