Oh Shoot

I'm rather fond of the XD9 myself: - OS

He was the old fart who beat up the young punk on a bus somewhere that was in the viral video and news some time ago, best I remember. - OS

Dude, you're calling Chuck Norris and Hulk Hogan gay? - OS

If the US totally tanks, what's going to be worth anything except physical goods or skills with which you can barter? Even if you were making better return in foreign markets, it has to be translated into US dollars to be spent here. If the USD totally melts down with hyper-inflation, even gold and silver aren't going to be worth much of anything in the short run, except again in more of a barter sense for those who still trust its value in an intrinsic sense. Though it does seem illogical to bet on what's become a Ponzi economy, it's still the safest bet until the house of cards collapses. - OS

Just sent a brand new Skyline in for service. No company is perfect. - OS

There's no difference between concealed or non-concealed as far as TN knife law. - OS

Not calling you out. Just a comment, since that's the only one that has still been reported as not having the sign; since it's new, guess it has slipped under the radar -- for now. - OS

It wuz attempt at a jokie poo. - OS

You were sleeping with your ex-wife? Good y'all have no grudges. - OS

Yeah. Real X factor is that the perp might take the money and run, but you shoot him and then just by reflex alone he pulls his trigger, killing cashier or whoever else. In which case your action went from no one harmed to perhaps two or more shot or dead. Maybe he has a frigging automatic AK. Maybe he has an accomplice you didn't see. Etc. You could trigger a frigging massacre. - OS

I bought one gun from feller on there. Met in a restaurant parking lot, like I have some TGOers. - OS

They're totally impractical. Can't steady it as a rifle or a pistol. No better capacity than handgun, but much more bulky. I'd say grab one. - OS

Then it must be the only one in the state that's not. - OS

BladeHQ is very good, nobody ships faster. I've probably bought more knives through eBay and Amazon than anywhere else, though. - OS

Automatic high capacity tactical assault Glock. - OS

There isn't any indication he's even a TN resident. - OS

Was referring to the no handgun sign principle, not their financial practices. Just sayin, too. - OS

Well, maybe. Try squeezing them closer together, closer than you may think. You have to press the follower down out of the way to do it. If you haven't had to move the follower out of the way to adjust them, then they are probably too wide. - OS

Actually might not be a brown recluse. I copied the pic and enhanced it. No "fiddle" markings on back, and those trailing appendages on abdomen don't exist on any other brown recluse picture I can find. Also, they aren't funnel web makers (they actually make a random and irregular web), but those appendages are characteristic of some funnel web species. - OS

Reeve is one of the publicly listed VeRO members on eBay. Matter of fact, he's the only knife company that chooses to show membership, for whatever reason. Only VeRO members can get bogus listings removed; it doesn't help for the rank and file to report auctions as far as counterfeit and the like. - OS

I generally feel this way too, and indeed voted Libertarian in the last general election. But it retrospect, thank Gawd all the votes for fringe candidates didn't add up to enough to defeat Obama, or I'd be feeling guilty now. I'm telling you, this Obama cat is something previously unknown outside of political conspiracy novels. O will continue to destabilize this country more than any other influence in its history. Though it won't cure many of of our problems right away, he must be stopped. Seriously. I'll vote for the Republican candidate this time around if they nominate a frigging possum, and encourage everyone else to do the same. - OS

Yup. FFL can sell long guns, but not handguns, to those in most other states. Doesn't have to, but can. However, individual to individual sales of long guns are same as for handguns, must be transferred in state of buyer through FFL. - OS

Yeah, I forgot about that little niche ruling. I wonder how that plays in all the thousands of counties across the US when you get stopped with one? Thinking of the guy over in middle TN that had to go through court for the federally classified .223 pistol. - OS

Yeah, "single action" striker, in that slide must be cocked each time. Trigger on C9 pistol and 995 carbine aren't horrible. Not quite Glock/XD level, way above a Sigma, way below most 1911s. The HiPoint .40 pistol has trigger pinch for me for some reason, but the 9mm doesn't. Never shot the HP .45, or the carbine in .40 or .45. - OS

I'd rather parcel myself out so lots more folks can personally commemorate. - OS
