  1. Me too, with a few new firearms to show off.
  2. Just got back, the gentleman who sold me this said that yesterday was a madhouse. Also picked up 60 rounds of 7.62x54r and 100 rounds of 7.62x39. And a Don Hume holster for my model 64. My firearms fund special envelope now has $3 in it.
  3. Well we drive while we carry, she spoke of road rage, where are the dozens of daily shootings over fender benders?

  6. Economy claims Harry Lane ChryslerSave Email Print Posted: 9:36 AM Mar 9, 2009 Last Updated: 2:13 PM Mar 9, 2009 Reporter: Brian Gregory Email Address: brian.gregory@wvlt-tv.com 0 comments Harry Lane Chrysler A | A | A KNOXVILLE, Tenn (WVLT) -- The weakened economy appears to be claiming another East Tennessee car dealership. VolunteerTV.com has obtained a letter, sent to employees on Friday, announcing the closing of Harry Lane Chrysler-Plymouth-Kia on North Peters Road in West Knoxville. According to the letter signed by by Kenny, Mary and Kellye Lane, the dealership will operate for approximately 45 days and then continue with a skeleton workforce to "finalize details." The letter sent to employees on Friday says: "After the passing of Mr. Harry Lane, the founder of Harry Lane Chrysler-Plymouth-Kia Inc., we have tried to move forward in his footsteps and carry on the car business he truly loved. To our regret, with the current economic conditions, we must start the process of closing the dealership." Reached on the phone Monday morning, Kenny Lane confirmed the letter, but disputed the dealership was closing. "We're not closing, we're just restructuring," Lane said. "We're having a little rough time, but we're sticking together." When asked by a reporter why the letter sent to employees specifically mentions the dealership is closing, Kenny Lane said, "We're doing everything in our power to stay open." The letter says the parts and service department will remain open. Harry Lane Chrysler becomes the second high profile East Tennessee dealership to close in recent months. Lifetime Kia of Morristown closed just two days before the end of 2008.

    A joke

    This has been around before,changed a little. A DEA officer stops at a ranch in North Dakota and talks with an old rancher. He tells the rancher, 'I need to inspect your ranch for illegally grown drugs.'The old rancher says, 'Okay, but do not go in that field over there.' The DEA officer verbally explodes saying, 'Mister, I have the authority of the Federal Government with me.' Reaching into his rear pants pocket, he removes his badge and proudly displays it to the farmer. 'See this badge? This badge means I am allowed to go wherever I wish...on any land. No questions asked or answers given. Have I made myself clear? Do you understand?' The old rancher nods politely, apologizes, and goes about his chores. A short time later, the old rancher hears loud screams and sees the DEA officer running for his life chased close behind by the rancher's prize bull. With every step the bull is gaining ground on the officer, and it seems likely that he'll get "horned" before he reaches safety. The officer is clearly terrified. The old rancher throws down his tools, runs to the fence and yells at the top of his lungs..... 'Your badge! Show him your badge!!!'
  10. I sold my guns to Mr. Gimore in January. I'm sorry sir, you can't get in touch with him, Mr. Gilmore passed away in Feb.
  11. I wouldn't call it oddball. The collectables I saw when I was there were very nice, also the craftsmanship on the packing case of that lantern set. The model railroad is an interesting touch. Now, collecting potato chips that look like celebrities, that is oddball.
  12. 870 in a linen closet during the day, under the bed at night. Always something on my waist.

    New snub

    AHHHHHHHH!!! The best kind of new gun, an old classic. My first handgun, purchased last May, pre-36 made in '53. I'll never voluntarily let it go.
  17. Is your shoulder sore?
  18. I'll do it, if I can take my 870 and XD-9.
  19. Karma strikes again.
  20. They were: http://orsahp.com/new_shooters_clinic_faq.aspx CIVILIAN MARKSMANSHIP PROGRAM SERVICE RIFLE CLINICS Welcome to the ORSA High Power Rifle Program’s “New Shooter†web site. Here you can learn about how to get started in our rifle marksmanship activities through ORSA’s CMP service rifle clinics. CMP SERVICE RIFLE CLINICS are an important first step for all of our new shooters. Clinic participation qualifies you to purchase surplus rifles and ammunition from the government’s Civilian Marksmanship Program. Clinics also prepare you to participate in CMP Games events and NRA rifle competitions scheduled throughout the year at ORSA. First-time competitors who do not hold an NRA High Power Rifle classification are required to complete at least one CMP rifle clinic before firing a CMP or NRA match at ORSA. Because of the informal atmosphere during clinics new shooters are able to learn, ask questions, and interact with their instructors and coaches in a way not possible during match competition. Each clinic begins with a Saturday morning classroom session during which you will receive basic background on topics including: Range safety and operations Course of fire and shooting positions Target scoring and pit operations Equipment maintenance Saturday afternoon you’ll have a first chance to put this information to work on the range. You’ll be paired up with one of our experienced rifle competitors for some individualized coaching while you fire a practice match. COST Adult participants pay a nominal fee of $10 for each rifle clinic. There’s no cost for junior shooters under 18 years of age. If you don’t currently own a suitable CMP Service Rifle (M1, M1A, AR15, or bolt action military rifle) or an NRA Match Rifle ORSA has a limited number of M1 rifles for loan with CMP ammunition available for an additional $20 per shooter. REGISTRATION Clinic registration takes place at the ORSA Clubhouse Saturday morning between 8:00 and 8:30 am. If you need to use a club rifle and ammunition you will need to make arrangements with the CMP clinic contact listed in the annual schedule posted on the ORSA HP Rifle web site (http://orsahp.com) at least one week in advance to confirm that support will be available. CMP and ORSA require all first-time shooters must complete and sign a certificate of eligibility and waiver of liability before participating in a CMP rifle clinic or match. You may download a copy of this form at here to have it ready before registration. EQUIPMENT You will need to bring the following basic equipment to participate in a CMP rifle clinic: Rifle and sling 3 magazines, M1 Garand clips, or 4 stripper clips for bolt action rifles 60 rounds of ammunition **Hearing protection (ear plugs and/or muffs) **Eye protection / shooting glasses **Empty Chamber Indicator (ECI) (available for purchase $1.00) Clipboard, pencil and paper (or a rifle scorebook if you have one) Rain gear (for yourself and to cover your equipment) Loose clothing, suitable for weather conditions Sweatshirt and hat Sunscreen Drinking water (LOTS of it) Food for the day Optional items for personal comfort as desired (sunglasses, bug repellent, towel or face cloth, folding chair, etc.) ** indicates required safety items You should also consider obtaining the following equipment as you gain shooting experience. Your coaches will probably have many of these items at the clinics. We recommend that you observe and ask about what shooting equipment competitors use and prefer before investing a lot of money in specialized items like this: Shooting jacket Shooting glove Shooting mat Spotting scope and stand Shooter’s stool Cleaning rod and chamber brush Sight blackening lamp or spray Scorebook Rifle competition is a fun and rewarding pastime that creates lifelong friendships and memories. We hope you will take advantage of as many of the CMP rifle clinics as possible to meet other ORSA rifle shooters, start your involvement in competitive shooting and build your skills to whatever level you desire.
  21. What would you call the grip that the woman is using?
  22. The Dead Horse Young Chuck in Montana bought a horse from a farmer for $100. <>The farmer agreed to deliver the horse the next day. The next day the farmer drove up and said, "Sorry son, but I have some bad news... the horse died." Chuck replied, "Well, then just give me my money back." The farmer said, "Can't do that. I went and spent it already." Chuck said, "Ok, then, just bring me the dead horse." The farmer asked, "What ya gonna do with him?" Chuck said, "I'm going to raffle him off." The farmer said, "You can't raffle off a dead horse!" Chuck said, "Sure I can, Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead." A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and asked, "What happened with that dead horse?" Chuck said, "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $998." The farmer said, "Didn't anyone complain?" Chuck said, "Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back.." Chuck grew up and now works for the government.
