Makes sense. I've open carried on my own property when making contact with trespassers.

Ironically, you can open carry in NC without a permit. I'm not inclined to, have always preferred discretion.

Examination of NC law reveals that there is no accommodation for transfer of out of state permits there. Oh well, guess I'm jumping through all the hoops again.

I get that, What confused me is that I was told by the NC sheriff's dept was that it was specific wording in the TN statute that prohibits transfer, which is not true.

We'll be moving to NC in a few months. I've had my TN permit for about 15 years or so and contacted the Sheriff's Dept in NC where we're moving to regarding this question. I was told that TN permits are not transferable, but a NC permit would be transferable if I were moving from there to TN. I've read the TN permit law from front to back and find no wording that prevents transfer, despite being told by the NC authorities that the TN law is so worded. Anyone know the definitive answer? TIA.

On the rear "bumper" there are two keyhole slots with metal bars having right angle bends and a washer welded on the shaft a couple of inches in. Pull those out and lock in that position, that releases the hydraulic pressure on the drive units. Also, if one or both of the steering bars is not completely pushed outward in the neutral position, mower won't start.

Thanks for the reply. Hopefully they'll become more plentiful in the next few months.

Did you have to pre order it and if so, what was the wait time? Currently only available from Sportsmans Outdoor on that basis. Thanks.

Yes, very absorbing and easy to read.

I'm currently reading a non fiction book published this year titled "The Dark Secrets of SHTF Survival" by Selco Begovic, a survivor of the Balkan War in the 90's. It's multiple vignettes of real life things to consider when the bottom drops out of society. It's very sobering.

Welcome from another expat yankee, fled Connecticut 25 years ago. I spent 30 plus years in all aspects of residential construction. Based on the age of the home you're buying, it's possible and even likely that the worn linoleum floor contains asbestos. You'd be better off not disturbing it and going over it with a new low profile floor ie: engineered hardwood, porcelain tile etc... You might want to be sure that any inspection tests for asbestos in ductwork, popcorn ceilings, flooring. Abatement can get expensive and your purchase price should reflect that. Good luck.

Yeah, that's beyond ridiculous. I just used Amazon for a quick ID. Thanks to hughd for the link. Word of caution: the Antiguans take their hot sauce seriously and there's no shaker cap on the bottle! Having vacationed there on several occasions, they put a punch bowl full of Susie's on the buffet tables.

This has been our favorite for years, made with Scotch Bonnets and mustard (really adds depth to the flavor): https://www.amazon.com/Susies-Original-Hot-Sauce-5oz/dp/B006Y3PU2A/ref=sr_1_fkmrnull_3?crid=3O0D4Q9DDCA&keywords=susie's+hot+sauce&qid=1552833765&s=gateway&sprefix=Susie's%2Caps%2C232&sr=8-3-fkmrnull

Swai is tasty, you can buy frozen filets at Kroger. If you have a Costco membership, look for corvina in the seafood case. Also very tasty and reasonably priced.

Taurus 605. It's an all steel .357 with hammer. Put reduced power springs in it to lighten the double action pull and shoot 38 spl. I've owned one for several years now, never had an issue, very accurate for its size too. Price is about $275.

Nice collection, Grayfox54! Everyone has their personal biases. I don't care for Glocks or Harley Davidsons even though they're both classics in a sense. I prefer CZ and Ducati. And Walther.

MSRP is usually higher than street price on anything, willing to wait and see what they go for. I'd go $550. I paid $369 for the 22LR version and love shooting it.

Due to start shipping out to retailers the end of this month. Let's hope they've ironed out the issues from when S&W had the license to manufacture, have always wanted one. https://www.guns.com/news/2019/01/15/the-iconic-walther-ppk-ppk-s-is-now-u-s-made-and-ready-to-ship-this-month-photos?fbclid=IwAR1JOaVyT_enbwNQUKZ_BfFT_noYsIQe89vi_qVw-7AmNWAkqQYX4s5s_uI

I bought a small boat trailer kit last year for a Sunfish sailboat. It didn't have any nuts, bolts or screws included. Rather than send me the hardware, I had to repackage the whole damn thing and return it and wait  another 3 weeks for a replacement to arrive.

Taurus 605 .357 loaded with Speer Gold Dot Self Protection 38 +P 135 gr JHP, in a Fobus synthetic owb paddle holster, 1 or 2 HKS speed loaders depending on where I'm going.

I just picked up a Walther PPK/S 22LR, only had the chance to run a couple of magazine's worth of chow through it, but no FTF or cycling problems and is very accurate for its size. I'm a sucker for its classic lines. I have heard that they can be finicky with ammo brands, high velocity rounds are recommended. I saw a video that demonstrated cycling problems with Winchester 555, shooter sprayed silicone on a batch of rounds, loaded them up and they cycled perfectly. Don't know if there would be any harmful effects or not.       http://i1146.photobucket.com/albums/o526/subsonic55/PPKs%2022_zpspf4xc52t.jpg

I have a Rossi M92 in .357 with a 16" barrel. Biggest complaint is that the loading gate seems a bit short for the length of the magnum cases. Haven't had any jams, but receiver is a little clunky cycling the magnums as well. Other than that, first time at the range I was hitting 3" groups at 100 yds with iron sights. Most enjoyable.

I prefer revolvers. I like mechanical simplicity and frankly, I'm a better shot with one. I always carry a speed loader or two, and do practice reloading with them.

No soap, spoke with a product specialist at DNZ. Threaded holes on the receiver are side by side, all DNZ mounts have holes aligned with barrel. My brother gave me this rifle and he has an uncanny knack for purchasing especially weird firearms, should have known.

Thanks guys, will look into them.
