    Oh man. Did I miss him?

     

    Yep, you missed him. And all evidence has been removed.

  2. Since I think the way judges are "elected" is completely against the TN constitution, I always vote to replace. The system is corrupt and we need to shake up the status quo.

     

    TN constitution calls for election of judges. The "TN plan" has a commission that gives the governor three names and he can select one or tell them to give him three more. Then after they serve, the citizens get to vote to retain or replace. How that can be considered "election of judges" is beyond my comprehension.

  3. From http://www.atf.gov/content/firearms-frequently-asked-questions-unlicensed-persons#gca-unlicensed-transfer:

     

    Q: To whom may an unlicensed person transfer firearms under the GCA?

    A person may sell a firearm to an unlicensed resident of his State, if he does not know or have reasonable cause to believe the person is prohibited from receiving or possessing firearms under Federal law. A person may loan or rent a firearm to a resident of any State for temporary use for lawful sporting purposes, if he does not know or have reasonable cause to believe the person is prohibited from receiving or possessing firearms under Federal law. A person may sell or transfer a firearm to a licensee in any State. However, a firearm other than a curio or relic may not be transferred interstate to a licensed collector.

    [18 U.S.C. 922(a)(3) and (5), 922(d), 27 CFR 478.29 and 478.30]


    Q: From whom may an unlicensed person acquire a firearm under the GCA?

    A person may only acquire a firearm within the person’s own State, except that he or she may purchase or otherwise acquire a rifle or shotgun, in person, at a licensee’s premises in any State, provided the sale complies with State laws applicable in the State of sale and the State where the purchaser resides. A person may borrow or rent a firearm in any State for temporary use for lawful sporting purposes.

    All I could find is this:

    That says 70% dated 11/2001

    The state isn't good about publicizing some of their decisions. I'm an instructor - the state sent information regarding the change of course of fire over a year ago. I don't have it in an electronic form or I would post it.

     

    They probably still state it as a 70% requirement since you can score 100 points with the new system (50 rounds - all in the 7 ring).

  5. It's 70% so 35 out of 50 anywhere on the black. No bonus for being closer to center or anything like that. It's just that easy. As for caliber start with a 22. It builds proper muscle memory. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

     

    Not anymore. The state changed the qualification last year. They now use a B29 target - its 22" x 11.5". Anything in the 7 ring or in counts as 2 points. In the black but not inside the 7 ring is 1 point. 50 shots - 70 points to pass.

  6. That's a silly statement. I can't physically disprove it anymore than you can prove it. But whatever helps you sleep at night.

     

    I've taught undergraduate classes at Vandy. Athletes took my class along with normal students. Well, as normal as engineering students can be. :)

  7. Springfield Loaded - around $800 or $900. Spend the rest on ammo. I've been temped by Dan Wesson's but so far one hasn't made its way into my safe yet.

     

    It has everything I want in a decent 1911 without extra cost. I've owned more expensive Kimbers that I wouldn't trade my SA for. It doesn't compare to a high-end 1911 (but nothing does).
