I appreciate the thoughts nraforlife. Unfortunately, this company has a history of November layoffs. Their fiscal year runs along with the calender year so they want salaries off the books for 2009.
There are a lot of loyal guys in my office that busted their rears for this company. Motivation is not very high in the office these days...

My company gave me a termination date of Dec. 12 for a Christmas bonus. Shut down the whole office... The fun of working for a publicly traded company: you are nothing but a number and all that matters is the stock price.
Oh well, as someone else stated I have lots to be thankful for. I am actually viewing this as an opportunity to get out of a huge corporation and work somewhere that I can make a difference.

All I can do is send condolences and pray for you. I have no idea what you are going through but you and your wife are in my prayers.

Although I quite like the Ruger I, II, III , my vote would be for a 41 or 17
Good luck finding either of those for around $300! If you do, PM me in a hurry!
I do agree with you -- you can't beat a good S&W. I'd also add the model 18 to the list.

I stopped in yesterday just to browse. The owners seem like good people. They are still trying to get the store stocked. Seems like they are selling stuff as fast as it arrives.
I'll be going back when I'm in the market to spend some cash.

I've got a 8310 on AT&T. I love the Crackberry. My service with AT&T has been great.
They are addictive. My wife laughs at me over being so accessible. Now I expect to receive my email within seconds...

If you are a Sam's Club member, they have a 24 gun Winchester safe for $623. They don't deliver so you have to have way to get it home.

If you dont mind a German made frame (slides are made in the U.S. I believe) , check out the Sig P239 in .40 S&W. These were designed by Sig for Concealed Carry... I had one recently, one of the most accurate guns that I have ever had.
I carry a P239 and love it. The only time I don't carry it is when I'm wearing shorts or I'm in a huge hurry and then I drop a J frame in my pocket. They are extremely accurate and well built guns. They are not cheap. I did run across a (very nice) used one priced at $525 at a local gun shop today.

Wifey and I both voted tonight.

I don't have any personal experience with him. From what I've heard, he will sign your Form 4 -- at least for suppressors. If you're looking for full-auto or DD, I dunno. "He's not from around here" so I wouldn't expect him to be super gun-friendly. Hopefully, I'm wrong about that!
I looked into getting a can a little while back. I'm still waiting to clear up some funds to make it happen.

Chief of Police (currently Ronal Serpas) is the CLEO in Nashville. Its not the Sheriff like in most of TN.

I carry a Sig 239 in a MTAC most of the time. Its very easy to conceal and extremely comfortable to wear. My wife usually doesn't even know when I'm carrying. About the only time I don't use the MTAC is in the summer when I'm wearing shorts and a t-shirt. In those cases, I throw a S&W 442 with a pocket holster in my pocket and go.
I just bought a 1911 body for my MTAC. This will let me carry my 1911 when I need to go concealed.
The MTAC is expensive but its worth it. I wish I had bought it before the three other holsters I picked up for my 239.

and wait, and wait...
Reports are that it is taking most of the 90 days the law allows for people to get their permits these days.

I bought a Jeep from them a few years ago. I had narrowed down what I wanted to something very specific. No one in town had a used Jeep that met my criteria. Carmax had one -- in Atlanta. For $150, that they apply to the purchase price, they trucked it in.
They were easy to deal with. Good financing and a quick deal.
I personally feel you can usually get a slightly better buy if you are willing to haggle alot and spend a significant amount of time working on a deal.

While I never met Marswolf in person, I feel like I know him well from this forum. He will be missed. Prayers for your family. RIP.

I love the old Remington rifles. If you can find a good deal on an old, iron sight Remington you'll have something great to learn with.
I've still got a model 33 that I've had since I was child. I don't shoot it much nowadays but its a great gun.
-
I got mine in 31 days earlier this year. That's 31 days from paperwork to permit in hand. I did call once after 27 days. I got the standard issue "it was issued today" message.
This was back in Feb/Mar -- which is about the time the news started their expose on the DOS.

The only problem with going to Guns and Leather for a transfer is all the other goodies you'll want to buy... I think I've been there a total of four times and have a Sig and a 1911 to show for it! They've always been friendly and easy to deal with.
We charge a $25 transfer fee normally to random_customer_01, but since it means taking a potential customer away from FGS, I will do it for free, this once. We are about 25min from Nashville occording to how you drive.But lets be honest, it takes about 1 minute to log in a gun, and depending on the POS system you use, 2-5 minutes to put the gun in your system. $50 to do a transfer is outrageous. Hell, some people think 25 is outrageous.
EDIT: I'm also drunk, so get it while the getting is good.

I've got a USP 40 and a P7. I love them. Very well made and accurate guns.
-
I also used ar-15.com for guidance on my first AR build. Not too difficult as long as you take your time (and have some semblance of mechanical abilty). There's something a little special about shooting a gun you built.

The state seems really inconsistent: Some people's HCP takes 90+ days while others get it in 30-something days.
I got mine in around 35 days back in Feb/Mar. That was even during the time when Channel 5 was doing their "expose" on the HCP.
Maybe their is a method to the madness?

You don't have to decock. When I took my class (also at G&L) you had to shoot DA/SA revolvers DA. Said it was mandated by the state. Semi-autos did not have to be shot DA.
-
I haven't used a Hornady but I have a good friend that has one (progressive). He speaks very highly of it. I am very happy with my Dillon.
I don't think you'd be making a mistake with either one. Buy the better value.

I've got a bad case of EBR disease:
- Colt SP2
- DPMS flat top
- Tactical innovations M4 clone
You can't have too many ARs...

No, your book is only for guns transfered via your C&R FFL.
