It is a newer one with the accutrigger and synthetic stock, stainless. I suppose it'll be worth whatever someone pays for it, if I can get within $40 of the final price I may just do it!

I bought a Savage MK II a while back just before Christmas. However I really wanted the Marlin listed above. Stainless, tube fed, bolt action, that is what I was looking for! But I had to settle for the Savage since I could not find the Marlin anywhere. Now on CheaperThanDirt, you can get the Marlin for $220 + shipping, or from BudsGunShop for $239 including shipping. If I could handle the Marlin I could make my decision myself, but what do you all think? Also, the Savage is very close to mint condition, only 300 rounds down the barrel. I should be able to sell it and have a bit of cash left over if I buy the Marlin. Input?

I like this guy...

Well like I said, months ago I was quoted around $150. However last week I was quoted around $250. Probably will join simply because I live very close to VO.

Well, I was told the exact same thing about a week ago. Unfortunately they told me it was supposed to be around $150 a year, but that was 6 months ago. I guess the redid their estimate:( Still plan on joining.

I agree. If the opportunity cost of taking the class is taking a day off work without pay, then you could arguably equate a monetary cost. However, I took my class on the weekend, my only opportunity cost was 1 hour of sleep, and whatever else I could and would have done in that time period. Since I don't work weekends, the opportunity cost was low. Add a bit for gas and the class, about $100 plus sleep. Then the fee for the permit, a bit over $200 total. I spent more on my holster.

Ok. Thank you very much for this information. I believe this answer all my questions. To sum this weekend up: Even if I see a general posting at the campground, it is ok for me to carry?

8. It is a violation of the law to carry where it is posted with this sign: PURSUANT TO § 39-17-1359, THE OWNER/OPERATOR OF THIS PROPERTY HAS BANNED WEAPONS ON THIS PROPERTY, OR WITHIN THIS BUILDING OR THIS PORTION OF THIS BUILDING. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS PROHIBITION IS PUNISHABLE AS A CRIMINAL ACT UNDER STATE LAW AND MAY SUBJECT THE VIOLATOR TO A FINE OF NOT MORE THAN FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($500). The wording must be substantially similar. A sign with a picture of a handgun with a slash through it does not count. http://www.usacarry.com/tennessee_concealed_carry_permit_information.html Going to play it safe in this account and honor the slashed gun signs, but this is so confusing and there is so much misinformation floating around. Constitutional Carry FTW!

Signage is something I would like clarification on a well. I read something today that suggested a mere "slash through gun sticker" is not adequate posting and carries no legal weight for a business. What is required in the state of TN for a business to properly restrict carry?

Trying to figure out if carry is accepted here. The whole carrying in parks thing is confusing. Something about if it is posted it is still ok unless it is posted in a specific way?

I was under the impression (from the Lead Mine Gun Club) that the mall was off limits. However they don't post many of the entrances, I believe the only one that is "posted" is the front. All that is posted at the front is a "rule". Should be good to go shouldn't I?

Ferrel is the guy being charged with the crimes against the woman. You are speaking of Jones.

I agree that bumper stickers mostly are unwanted by me, but if others wanted to buy them from me then that would be awesome. So for those of you interested, what sorta prices would you expect to pay? Just talking about the typical square ones with witty text. Also, if I do decide on attempting this, I would be willing to give anyone a free bumper sticker if they have me some sort of witty thing to put on them that I decide to order some of.

Professional meaning quality, or professional meaning a lot of money invested in graphic design?

My very brief questions consist of this? Would anyone be interested in a bumper sticker site that specializes in gun based stickers? If so, what would the majority of you pay for a single sticker shipped to your house? Would you be willing to buy one, or more than one? Would you possibly buy some for friends? I ask because I have a HUGE desire to start a business of some sort, and have always been trying this or that to make a few bucks in addition to my job. If I could do well enough to break even plus a few bucks, I think this would be a fun little experiment. Be honest, prices and quantity demanded people!

I really really like this idea.

I think it would be nice if we started always using $2 bills at places we frequent to put into perspective how gun owners in Tennessee really are a large portion of consumers.

Just found this today: http://www.gunfreediningtennessee.org/ Figured it'd be worth a look for you guys.

This guy is the one that shoots all sorts of machine guns. Word is he is "gaining hits" for someone's gunship by using their stuff. I'd say he stays perfectly within the law.

So perhaps the .22 Beretta Bobcat would be best? If it is dependable, that would be great! Ammo would be cheap enough to plink with all day. Is the .22lr HONESTLY better than .25 acp?

Everyone should read Alice in Deadland TODAY. It is a wonderful read with a major twist with all sorts of wonderful concepts built into it. I bought it OB the Kindle for .99. Worth all 99 pennies!

Go Go Caliber War!

A long long time ago, before we were dating, I overheard my Fiancé stating "Never will I hold a gun", implying that the guns themselves are evil. Just the other day, she told her mother "I somewhat enjoy shooting". Things change;) She fired one of our friend's Beretta .25's. She liked it because it was small and didn't cause discomfort. I have talked her into getting her CPL, and she wants one of those small guns. I am between a rock and a hard place trying to become comfortable to the idea of such a small caliber. I would love to get her a revolver, .38. However, I would rather her get something she loved and would enjoy practicing with vs something she wouldn't. Should I go for one of those small Beretta's in .25 or .32? Or should I attempt to sway her a bit further into a higher caliber?

Ah yes, the Tactical. I plan on that specific model within the next year or so.

Well I have very much looked at the CZ 83's, but I cannot decide on a .32 or .380. How serious do you think they would be if I requested a 9mm Makarov version?
