Is there anyone better than Kyle Busch right now? He sure made getting around Jimmy Johnson look easy! I have not been a Kyle Busch fan but he doesn't seem to be the "Little Prick" that he used to be. He's one hellava driver. Like him or not I have to admit that fact.

I think that was Bill Heard Chevrolet commercial. Probably why they are out of business.

I stopped by Guns & Leather this afternoon and they referred me to S&W directly. I called S&W and gave them the model # & serial # and they got it ordered. I found out that this gun was manufactured in 1984. I had traded for it at a gun show about 3 years ago and had no idea about it's history. I would love to know where the gun has been. Anyone know how to track it? Thanks for the advise.

How long is the turn around when you send S&W a gun?

I've got a S&W Model 686 w/4" barrel. It was stolen from my home in a burglary in Dec. 2006. I have just gotten it back from the MPD after it was recovered from an apt. in Napier homes while the Sherriff's Dept was evicting a tennant. The gun is in great shape with the exception of the rear sight missing. Can someone tell me where would be the best place to get a replacement. Thanks!

I guess that is why they call it the LEFT coast!

My feeling exactly. I've run around 1000 rounds of 40 cal thru my Ruger P-94 and have had no problems except that I seem to have a little more green buildup in my wallet than with other brands!

Welcome and enjoy. Love Signal Mountain area. I have family that lives there and it is an awesome sight especially when the leaves are changing in the fall.

Mine stays on my hip most all of the time. When I get up in the morning I put on a pair of sweat shorts and do 2 miles on the treadmill and I don't wear it then but it is in reach. After a shower it is on my hip.

Does your significant other have an HCP?
Volzfan replied to a topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
My wife does not drive and is rarely out of the house without me so she feels like she doesn't need it to be able to use a gun in our home if/when necessary. I still want her to get her HCP anyway. -
Yes I carry every normal day. Flew to Daytona Beach last month for vacation and left my gun at home. My gun is on the nightstand while sleeping, on the bathroom vanity while in the shower then on my belt till time for bed. Fortunately my employer has no problem with it. They have even showed some interest in getting a gun themselves. I will normally keep it with me while doing yard work. I nearly shot a neighbor's dog that charged me while I was cutting my grass. My gun was drawn and the dog in my sights when he finally got control of the dog. You just never know when it will be needed.

Thanks. I thought I was probably pretty close.

This is the first forum that I have ever been involved with and I would like to know what the definition of a "Troll" is. Can someone please enlighten me? If being an absolute jerk is close then Joeocoee was one.

I am not a LEO but may I make a suggestion? Last year I took a citizens class about the Metro Nashville Police Dept called the Citizens Police Academy. This years class is going on now. During that class I got the opportunity to do 2 ride-alongs in the South Precinct. That was eye-opening. You should contact your closest precinct commander and see if you can get to do a ride-along. That will give you an 8 hr shift to pick an officer's brain. If I was not 50 I would look at joining.

I had a friend that bought a lesser weight safe and after he got it where he wanted it he put around 500lbs of lead in the bottom.

I am with you 100% on the Winston Cup. I know that NASCAR has a contract with Sprint but All of those previous champions were WINSTON CUP champions!! RJ Reynolds and the Winston brand played a huge part in getting NASCAR where it is today and I don't think that they should just pretend that they don't exist now. Yes, I am "OLD SCHOOL" but I have been a fan since the mid 70's and I can't just let it go. Firecracker 400 Southern 500 World 600 Etc. Those really were the good old days when everything NASCAR did was not all about the money.

Hypothetical Question on Restaurant Carry
Volzfan replied to a topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
To me the risk of giving up my HCP isn't worth the risk of carrying into Applebee's or Logan's, etc.. I'll go to Cracker Barrel or some other like them instead or just leave my heat in the car. -
When asked for ID do you show your carry permit or driver's license?
Volzfan replied to a topic in General Chat
The poll is a trick question to see who really reads them! DL only for me. -
TNT is about to take over as the best network. I have been a big Fox fan but tonight may have won me over. I think that Wally is the weak link but still not that bad. He is a better broadcaster than he was a driver.

NASCAR has gone downhill but I think it is mainly because of the safety issues that have been put in place since DE died. I am hoping that this new car will turn into a good race car soon. I go to the races in Bristol and they are not the same either. Last Aug. Busch race was good but the Cup race sucked. The spring races were better and I am hoping for the best come August.
-
Just glad it wasn't 48 in victory lane.
-
That is one of the guns on my "Bucket List"!!!
-
I'm in Nashville but I'll try to stop in on my way to Bristol for the races in late Aug.

The only time that I have been called was back in the early 90's and that is long before I got my HCP. At that time I was in a Ch 13 bankrupcy from a failed business. I was working on a salary + commission with a company. They would pay the salary but I would have gotten no commission while on JD. The judge had already told us that he almost never granted hardship excuses fom serving. Fortunately for me, they had called in more potential jurors that they needed so I was dismissed for that reason. Had I had to serve as a juror on a long, time consuming case I would not have been able to make the payments on my bankrupcy. I would hope that this judge would have let me off with my reasons. I had all of my paperwork in case I had to present it to him. I too believe that JD is something that you should do if called and since I have been in better position to serve I have not been called. Even so, I would doubt that I would make it through the lawyers interviews.
