Godcountrygun, do you have any experience with any small FFLs charging a good rate in the Nashville area? I would be glad to add them to my list for future business.

The American Suppressor Association has been sending out notifications and call-to-actions on this as well for the reason stated above by Chucktshoes. https://americansuppressorassociation.com/atf-form-1-update-take-action-now/?mc_cid=741b756079&mc_eid=0afb189d88

I was lucky enough too. It had just been on the range for some testing and it was being put back on the bench.

Just adding to an old post with a recent experience. I have used DTV Tactical Innovations here in the Nashville area to engrave three SBR lowers. They are located in the Royal Range USA building. They were laser engraved and they knocked the three of them off while I waited. https://www.dtvtacticalinnovations.com/

I have used Music City Pawn a few times over the years for transfers. Always a smooth process with them. They have a few physical locations and I used the one on Nolensville Rd. They were $25 per item and then $12.50 for each additional plus the$10 for the State. I believe they are now at $40 per firearm plus the State's fee. I'm not sure how this compares anymore but have noticed that most places seem to be at least this much so it may not matter . https://www.musiccitypawn.com/firearm-transfers As for suppressors, it looks like a lot of places are maybe keeping a few items in stock and utilizing Silencer Shop to handle carrying most of the inventory and becoming affiliated with them or one of the other such organizations. I have used Royal Range and Silencer Shop recently. You could check out Silencer Central online as well. I have a friend who just purchased through them and was extremely pleased. Also, the guys over at Nashville Gun and Knife are always a pleasure to talk to, very helpful and worth checking out. Sorry it isn't all that specific but I have found the price charged has kind of stabilized recently and you have to factor in convenience to yourself as well.

For the self-defense portion of the knowledge you are looking for, I would start with a copy of Andrew Branca's book The Law of Self Defense Principles. It isn't exactly free but the $8.95 S&H he'll charge you to get a copy is as good as free for the amount of information and detail. He has some other offers there as well. He posts to his blog and YouTube as well. link to the offer if you want to check it out. https://get.lawofselfdefense.com/v1-full-freebook-lp/b.html and his site: https://lawofselfdefense.com/

Thanks for the input. I will be mounting to various SBR/pistol length (10.5", 11.5", 12.5") as well as the less "regulated" 16" plus. Using a Dead Air Nomand 30 and a Silencerco Omega 36M. I went ahead and started to ordered a KeyMo setup as I have an ASR with the Omega. Best way to tell what you like is to try it.

I have heard nothing but good things about the Keymo system. As you said, finding things in stock now is a challenge. Thank you for the feedback.

Does anyone have any experience with both the Silencerco ASR mounting system and the Dear Air Keymo system? I would appreciate any feedback on the two systems you could share. Benefits, detractions of one over the other. What you prefer and why. Etc… Thank you in advance,

Thanks for the feedback. May pick one up and give it try. As you said, A.J., the videos on the site show some heavy hitters implementing it. I'll try and find the two round version and take a good look at it, though, bobsguns.

Checking to see if anyone has any experience using a match saver / Matchsaverz (https://matchsaverz.com/) on a shotgun in either competition or "tactical" training. Thinking of picking one up to try but thought I'd see if there was nay feedback before dropping another $25 plus.

Copy that pop pop. You are correct, I wouldn't want just any Criminal Defense attorney, either. I should have clarified. Most have also just defended actual criminals as people like those of us who are forums like this don't go around getting into trouble. But I would want someone who understands what is legal when defending one self. Gun, knife, bat, open handed, whatever. So what one can do in these situations is far more important knowledge than general firearms law. I would probably reach out to Dana McLendon first. I know he has a lot of experience, is active in the gun community and I believe he is at least in USCCA's network. I cannot recommend enough that everyone read Andrew Branca's book at the very least. Following his blog for awhile would help in addition. He dissects actual events so you can see where you would actually stand in real life senarios. In our current environment there are a lot of people that would love to make an example of a nice juicy gun owner. We already see it happening around us.

Just a little note that if thinking of speaking to someone about this, we are discussing Self-Defense and not Firearms law under this topic I really don't care how many FFLs you've helped out, how many gun trusts you've completed, or how knowledgeable you are on SBRs, pistol braces or state regulations. I want someone who can keep me from going to jail in a criminal case for defending myself. Then someone with Civil Law experience so I can keep my assets. I believe it was Andrew Branca who said something like, the three worse places to get Self-Defense advice: The Internet, Cops, Lawyers. The other attorney in the Franklin area may be Dana McLendon. https://www.danamclendonlaw.com Charles Chip Cain is in Franklin as well but I'm not sure if he handles criminal defense or just firearms related issues. www.cain-law.com

I think that having an "insurance" policy in place is a great thing, especially if you carry outside the home. I believe what is even more important is to increase your understanding of what is actually legal and how the legal forces that can work against you will analyze your actions. Knowledge will make you a whole lot less likely to end up in a situation you where you need the coverage that you have. After really following Andrew Branca and watching him tear apart cases and incidents as well as content from Active Self Protection on YouTube, CCW Safe and others, it is amazing how I have learned. I am constantly hearing people in our community who have been around a long time say things that are just not at all accurate (to put it nicely). Much of this information can be obtained for free or is generated by the companies and individuals associated with them, that we are discussing.

Here are a couple resources worth checking out that may help you decide. The Virginia Citizens Defense League has a legal plan comparison you can download at: https://vcdl.org/page/legal-plan-comparison John Lovell speaking with Andrew Branca about various plans. https://warriorpoetsociety.us/should-you-get-concealed-carry-insurance/

I don't have experience directly with USCCA except for attending some of the local education (recruiting) sessions they have done. I believe they are reputable and you wouldn't be making a mistake going with them. That said, I joined CCW Safe after spending a great deal of time comparing. It is like so many other things, they all have some strengths that you wish the others also had. After reading all the fine print, I concluded that CCW Safe had a higher probability of providing more coverage (criminal and civil), giving more say/choice in representation, had an advisory board of highly reputable individuals, etc... The fact that USCCA has a lawsuit by a member and that USCCA had not issued a statement (at least not at the time of my decision) did not weigh in their favor. Yes, I do understand that I do not know all the details, but it is concerning.

Membership is $35 a year. Everyone should be paying this to support this site and all the efforts that are put into it, anyway. The way the world is working against us, putting some things behind a paywall may not be such a bad idea, especially such a reasonably priced one that supports a great cause/site.

Seems very reasonable. Places some hurdles in the way for scammers but a legitimate individual can easily navigate past them.

Appreciate the time you took to detail your experience for us. I will check it out.

Sorry for the late post but I received this post as well.

I meant "not. I have not been receiving emails from the Classifieds. I followed some individual classified items this morning to see if I received notifications from them. I will let you know if I start to receive email notifications from these individual posts.

I have not started to receive email notifications for the Firearms classifieds i follow. It looks like there have been a couple of new posts in the past few hours. I have added Tactics and Training today to what I follow.

I'm definitely ok with you using my account.

David, My whole career has been and is supporting tech and I have often been the "one man show". I understand the difficulty, am sympathetic and respect the all the time & effort you put in. I also believe we have all been very patient with this issue and considering how important it is to all of us, continue to be. But we have not heard much back from anyone on this in a while so I believe we have all been wondering if it was still being looked into. TGO is more to all of us than just a Forum, it is a community, so please trust that we all respect that and those who use there time to keep it in existence, very much. I thought it was understood that the issue was with the Classifieds portion of the forum. We have been discussing how we do not receive notifications from the Classified section but do receive email notifications on things pertaining to this thread. As ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ stated above, I believe I am getting all emails except for those from the Classifieds. I’ve documented many of the things I’ve tried such as changing email delivery to a Gmail account, which didn’t resolve anything (I’ve since changed back to my main account). I’ve tried “toggling” the Follow on and off on a forum. Tried following individual items/posts on the Classifieds forum, logged in, logged out, tried different combinations. Etc… I would love for this to be a brain fart moment on my part and a simple fix that I have overlooked. I just don’t know what else to try or who to contact. This forum is the only tech support I am aware of for this site. That is why we have posted our concerns here. Please excuse anything that does not flow well in the above. It has been a long day. Thank you again for your time,

Thank you MemHeli. I tried following the forum using the other link you mentioned on Monday. Still nothing here as far as notifications for the classified forum. I'd say that I'm getting a litle upset but that wouldn't be accurate as I have been extremely upset about this for a while now. This absolutely sucks and there doesn't seem to be anything that is going to be done to rectify it.
