I really would like to see just how many times you would see them out in public if they lose their armed protection. I bet they would not leave the house. Most of them are not like Trump who has his own security. He was offered secret service protection for him and Carson a while back but only after he had to ask for it. Trump just said that he will use his own security and just bill the Federal Government each month for his security. Kind of sounds like Trump might not trust the Secret Service huh?......................... :up: ...............jmho

Does that mean if you carry open you don't need to have a permit?........................ :shrug: All I saw it said was gun owners in Texas will be able to open carry.......... :ugh: 

This is a big game of Russian Roulette being played by both the American oil companies and the OPEC nations. Back in the 1970's when OPEC put the Embargo in place and brought our country to it's knees there were no options on the table but to pay the price. Well it's payback time and now we are an Energy Independent Country and don't have to depend on OPEC and now it is them sucking the dry teats. You can bet that OPEC would love to see our fracking businesses fail but because they have the backing or our big major oil companies they will never shut down but just slow down and remain vigil in case OPEC tries to run new games.   For those of ya'll that are not aware of it the oil that is in the franking fields was discovered back in the early 1950's. It was decided that because they at the time could buy oil from OPEC for 10.00 a barrel than they could extract it that they would just set on it till a later date and continue buying from OPEC.   Now as to why the American Oil companies waited till 5 or 6 years ago to go after that oil, I have no idea. They knew where it was and how big it was. It was said to have a lake of oil larger than all of Saudi Arabia and several other OPEC nations combined. My only guess is the American oil companies were enjoying the very large record profits during all those years of high oil prices. I do know that we need to not get to comfortable with this because I don't look for it to last.      Someone is going to burst the bubble, it is just a matter of when....................jmho

This works for sure. Back when I was growing up I had Beagle hounds and so did a buddy of mine. If it got dark and one of our dogs was out of hearing distance of our whistles if it was his dog he would take off his teen shirt and hang it  near a tree base and every time we went back the next morning the dog would be laying on the shirt or very close by and would come running to us. We use that trick for years and to this day he still hunts with beagles and he has still had to use that trick a few times.................... :up:

If it is against the law to do, you can bet there is someone out there doing it................jmho

I think the AG and Governor are going to end up on the short end of that stick before this is over...... :ugh:   http://bearingarms.com/va-gop-may-strip-mcauliffe-protective-detail-concealed-carry/?utm_source=bafbp&utm_medium=fbpage&utm_campaign=baupdate     http://www.ammoland.com/2015/12/252373/#ixzz3vSd5tRcc

Tennessee  politicians have always loved a gas tax and will try for one every chance they get. This is just another attempt to screw the Tennesseans out of more hard earned money for their pork fat pet projects...............jmho

I have not purchased any thing since the store opened in Tennessee but back before when I ordered from Buds in Louisville I didn't have to pay sales tax to the FFL. Only fee for the transaction and back ground check. I think now that Buds has come to Tennessee you are required to pay the sales tax, transaction fee and back ground check but not totally sure............. :shrug: :shrug:

New avatar is required I guess............... :up: 

I have a lifetime hunting and fishing license combo in my billfold right now. I have bought one every year till I retired and got my lifetime for 10 bucks. It was always a combo license which didn't bother me because at the time I was doing both. But with that said many of my friends that don't do both always complained about it.

He is just trying to sway voters and gun owners to his bid for the White House. I think most folks can see that and most gun owners won't be falling for it. I honestly don't know for sure that folks can trust any of those running on GOP ticket to actually support the 2nd Amendment as they say they will. I have not seen the NRA actually come out and say anything about any of them directly yet...............jmho     We all know where Hildebeast stands so no need to go there. ..............JMHO

I also have always thought that you should be able to purchase a Hunting License or a Fishing license separately but in Tennessee as long as I can remember it has always been a combo license. In most states you can purchase one or the other but not here. I know many people that fish and do not hunt and vice- a-versa..............jmho

That is strange because every place I went over the last couple days folks told me Merry Christmas. Walgreens, Walmart, Krogers, Lowe's and a couple more places...........And Yes, JESUS is the reason for the season and we should keep CHRIST in Christmas...........JMHO

Hope one of the TGO staff will delete this post please since one is already on site. Thanks

If the new owners are smart, the first thing they should do is find another state and move the company and get the hell out of that whole area of Blue states.............jmho

Yep, weatherman said that there is a snow storm system building in the west right now that will more than likely blanket the north east with about 3 feet of snow the end of next week so they better enjoy this weather up there while they can. 75 yesterday in NYC. I don't figure we will get much of that snow storm down here. I figure once it reaches Texas the warm Gulf of Mexico will blow the most of it north. Seems to work that way most times. As far as ICE goes. I learned a long time ago when I use to play in the snow with my 4X4 trucks that on ice with steel studded mudder tires you could go ok but when it came to stopping on ICE you could not stop any faster or safer then a car with bald tires............... :2cents:  

Anybody else heard about this yet? Don't want to re post if it has already been posted?       http://bearingarms.com/stag-feds-revoke-ar-15-manufacturers-license-sloppy-record-keeping/?utm_source=bafbp&utm_medium=fbpage&utm_campaign=baupdate

Weather man on channel 5 just said it will be Wednesday before we might see more normal  temps for this time of year and until then Rain, rain and more rain with storms mixed in. I'm ready for some snow instead of rain............jmho

Welcome aboard and don't be bashful about posting here. We are always looking for new folks that might have input that other members might be able to put to use................ :up: :up:

I would say in regards to not allowing our greatest military minds from doing their jobs by a White House calling the shots instead of the military. We have not been allowed to actually finish anything we are of got involved in since WWII. McArther had Korea won till they relieved him and replaced him with a must less adequate Officer. We could have won Vietnam if the White House would not have tied the military's hands at every turn. We could have eliminated the need for the Iraq war which was not necessary to begin with had they not told Stormin Norman to stand down at the city limits of Baghdad and allowed him to finish it there.  To many Monday morning Arm Chair Quarterbacks calling the shots is what I am guessing was what it was in regards to.........jmho   

Thank you David and Merry Christmas and  thank you for the video. Very Inspiring for sure. And to all the TGO' folks a Very Merry Christmas and a Very Special Merry Christmas to our Military both Active and Veterans. Thank you very much................ :usa: 

Welcome aboard and glad your here. Would love to see your collection for sure..... :up: :up: :up:

Bloomberg's group has to resort to trying to get sorts celebrities and Tinsel Town Hollywood celebrities to promote his agenda because he cannot get enough of the general public to support his agenda. Every time one of these celebrities supports him they don't realize they lose 1000's of fans. Every time I hear of one either in sports or Hollywood support his policy I boycott that person from that point on ..........jmho

Kasey spent the night under my bed. Back when she was a puppy and even up to about 4 years old she loved staying out in her dog house during some really serious storms even when I would try and get her to come in. Now it can thunder 25 miles from here and sun shining here and she is scratching at the door wanting in. That tells me a rain storm is in the area. All the time she is in she it almost tied to my leg when I move around the house. We got a little wind and some rain was about all last night but I did lay in bed and watch for the all clear. Hope ya'll that have property in the damage areas come out unscathed as possible................ :up: 

Well, I guess I will throw my 2 cents in here. I have been around guns all my life and my wife that passed away in 97 had not been. After a short time she was at the range with me shooting guns till she found the one she felt the most comfortable with. It was a 380 caliber. She shot all of my guns and that was the one she settled on. So that was what I bought her. She carried it with her all the time as she was a Home Health Care Nurse and sometimes had to come home late at night. We would go to the range monthly to stay crisp.   At the present time I own a couple heavy caliber hand guns and have ammo for all of them yet I choose to carry a Model 85 380 Bersa. As I have gotten older and my poor health has began to so up more I am more comfortable with the 380 than I would be with a 1911 or a Tokarev.............jmho    I also wish more women would get involved in firearms, not necessarily because I consider them a weaker sex but because they would be able to defend themselves in situations that they would other wise be a victim. I would also like to read posts from lady shooters and get their views on things. My son taught his wife to shoot everything he owns which is quit a number of long and hand guns. She also prefers a smaller caliber firearm so she also chose a 380. Mind you she is 5"1' and weighs about 100 pounds but I saw her shoot her 380 and I damn sure would not want her shooting at me.   Now with that said I also think that there are probably many men out there that would rather not have a girlfriend or a wife that knows about guns or has one of their own. I think most of it is a complex some men have about a firearm is a manly thing which is a crock of crap. It is not a man thing. It is a choice thing to them.   I say welcome to all lady shooters and hope we have more of them join and contribute to our forums................... :up:  :up:  :up:
