  1. If you weren't 5 hours away I'd be all over this. What a fantastic little pocket rocket

    Revolvers

    I don't see myself walking away from revolvers anytime soon. This is my current favorite, a Model 25-5 in .45 colt, packed around in a Simply Rugged Alligator skin pancake.
  3. Gun is sold, sorry I thought I had updated
  4. $1650 obo, I would like to sell this week
  5. Bad news for your wife is I'll deliver for the right amount of money
  6. $50 price drop, 1800 flat. Looking for a quick sale.
  7. Yes it does. I don't think the ones they built for browning in the 80s did from what I remember if the one I owned many moons ago
  8. Anything is negotiable and Ive got a trip to Chattanooga to pick up a Model 28 from the gunsmith this coming weekend
  9. I have a NIB Winchester/Miroku 1886 Deluxe 24" lever action chambered in .45-70. Absolutely gorgeous rifle, make a fine collection piece or put it to work putting down deer. These are hard to find in stock these days. $1650 obo local to Oak Ridge, Knoxville, Sevierville etc.
  10. Have you tried doing it from within the classified forum itself? There is a button at the top in the forum that says start new topic.
  11. Looking for a Model 11, Savage 720 or Browing A5 in 12 gauge for a project. Finish doesnt matter, as long as it functions with full house buckshot loads. Cheaper is better, not sure on budget so just send me whatcha got.
  12. Wow!! That's a killer deal and those are some gorgeous guns. They lever action is absolutely beautiful
  13. That may be the coolest thing I have ever seen. I don't have any of your trade interest but if you ever start looking for fancy wheel guns let me know, maybe we can work it out lol
  14. I don't know that there is an answer to that. I was more just demonstrating the difference that appearance, attitude and mannerisms can make if you want to open carry. I have open carried from time to time. Usually it's a nice revolver in a well tooled holster with a tucked in dress shirt. It's not totally open as it's mostly accompanied by a sport coat. If people assume I'm LEO than that's on them. I don't generally look the part with a full beard and several tattoos, as well as a revolver instead of a service pistol but I don't go out of my way to convince them one way or the other. Most of my open carry is at my church where the people are very pro 2A and someone comes in with bad intentions then open vs concealed will probably matter very little. That said my default carry method is appendix IWB with an untucked work shirt, and it works well enough to make a Commander length 2011 disappear. If I'm further in town than the hopping little burg of Oliver springs I'm probably concealed.
  15. So something I have learned working in a manufacturing environment that relates to most aspects of life. Perception is reality. What people perceive in a 1-2 second look/interaction will shape their thoughts and their response to those thoughts. 3 different scenarios to consider. Scenario 1. Clean cut professional looking adult wearing business casual styled clothing with a tucked in shirt is opening carrying a firearm in a nice leather holster. Scenario 2. Unkempt looking adult in old, baggy, dirty or otherwise sloppy jeans is opening carrying a firearm in a cheap nylon holster thats floppy or leaning out and unsercure, with their t shirt obviously tucked behind it to display the gun. Scenario 3. Male in hip hop styled clothing is carrying an unholstered firearm in his pocket with the grip openly out and on display. I have seen all 3 of these in public local and recently. There is a right and a wrong way to do things. I'm not saying I'm for or against open carry as a typical manner to do things. As a right I support it 100%. But if you open carry you are guaranteed to receive a better response 98% of the time if you are well dressed, wearing a well fitted holster and belt and acting in a polite and respectful manner.
  16. Let's hope so. It'll probably kill the value on the lock models, but I'm ok with that. I think Colt has really come out swinging the last few years and maybe Smith has finally figured out that putting in a half assed effort isn't good enough anymore. If they will get rid of the lock and now start improving their QC then they have a good chance of turning it around
  17. Link to the S&W website. https://www.smith-wesson.com/product/model-686-plus-mountain-gun?trk_msg=6MOH81AD49P4R69C4TC1SSV4OC&trk_contact=BJNKDAVROJC4GFS0DO83TNLU1O&trk_sid=O06I4B988SHKPQEBOHDK4RSLEC&trk_link=JOIFNNCT07H4HD1K9JT67Q4ODO&utm_source=listrak&utm_medium=email&utm_term=MORE+INFO&utm_campaign=Smith-Wesson
  18. Saw this over on reddit. It was posted to the Smith Facebook page but was removed shortly after. They are still up at lipseys, see the link and pics. I'll be picking up the first 44 I can find if they are a true 4" one piece barrel no lock. https://lipseys.com/itemdetail?itemno=SM14040 https://lipseys.com/itemdetail?itemno=SM14041
  19. MSRP is on the S&W website. 849 for the 36, 979 for the 10 and 1099 for the 19. I'm glad to see new no locks but you can get dandy almost LNIB examples of all 3 of those guns for less than the MSRP. Hopefully street price is a bit lower and this is the beginning of the end for the lock
  20. No sir, I've never held an FFL and I've lived here in Oliver Springs since I got out of the Marine Corps in 2012.
  21. Milwaukee tools, batteries and charger for sell. 1/2" high torque impact, NIB. 1/4" drive impact, like new without box. 1 - 5.0 ah battery, lightly used. 2 - 1.5 ah batteries approx. 6 months of light usage. 1 - rapid charger. $350 paypal F&F for everything shipped or add 3% for fees for G&S.
  22. This would make a dandy bike to commute on. I live next to some of the best motorcycle roads in the world and haven't had a bike in years. Shoot im only 1500 shy of the price in my gun and fun fund lol
