I to was promised my fathers old Remington 22 single shot that my mother bought him back in the 50's. Never got it. One of my other brothers got it and instead of offering it to me to buy he sold it to a stranger. Needless to say I have not spoken with this brother in almost 15 years and honestly don't even know if he is still alive. He knew I wanted that gun and sold it to spite me.

Lucky it was only one death and I would almost guess that particular Zombie was targeted............jmho

So I am thinking about starting a TGO Hall of Shame
bersaguy replied to TGO David's topic in General Chat
I don't see anything with a Hall of Shame at all. I always say if the shoe fits wear it and if someone deserves to be placed in the Hall let it be! This is your site and you are the one that has to deal with these less desirable's so you do it as you see fit and folks can just deal with it...................JMHO -
Gun Violence in Chicago -Where is the outrage?
bersaguy replied to polecat's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Can anyone remember the last time our local news networks didn't mention a shooting or a killing right here in Nashville? It seems like an everyday occurrence these days also. As for Chicago, it has always had murder issues all the way back to the roaring 20's and has never changed. There have always been murders in the Windy City. It is only because of the mass shootings that it has been brought to the fore front. Back in 1974 right after I returned home from Service I went to work in the Illinois Department of Correction and was stationed at the Joliet Prison branch. There was a whole walk(Tier) of Black gang members 80 cells worth with 2 in each cell. They were mostly members of a Black organization known as the Black P Stone Nation which was in connection to an area of Black Stone Avenue in Chicago. I ask one of them what he was in for because he seemed so young to be in a Main Prison system. He was 16 years old and doing life without parole for the murders of three other black youths all under the age of 15 because they refused to join the Black Gangsters Street Gang so he just shot each one in the head and walked away. So this is not a new problem in Chicago. It is just a really old problem that has never been solved nor will it ever be and the news medias have finally figured that out so yea, it's not news any more in Chicago...........jmho -
Very sorry to hear of your loss Ben. He is now with GOD and his pain is gone and I wish you and your family the best and prayers coming........

Clinton suggests she'd consider mandatory gun buy-backs
bersaguy replied to polecat's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
"One thing else to consider if it moves forward, theft will skyrocket. It'll likely be a few or no questions asked deal for those who voluntarily produce them for the buy back. Lock them down tight! You have a point but I think anyone that would risk stealing a gun is a thief and a criminal to begin with and they would not steal it to sell it to the cops. They would most likely steal it to commit a crime of some type..............jmho -
Maybe Obama has finally figured out that if he decides to do something stupid that he does not have the support of just about any law enforcement in any state at state level so he does not want them to have weapons that our military has. The law enforcement agencies in New York proved that when that stupid governor passed that law requiring all New Yorker's to register their Black rifles and semi auto rifles and only about 5% of them did. All the law enforcement agencies including the state police told him to pound sand if he thought they were going knocking on doors to arrest anyone that did not register their guns. That busted his bubble don't ya know. Told him where he stood with regards to the law enforcement in his state................ :up:

This is a recent article written about Australia's point of view verses America comparing the two and Australia's saying their gun laws would never work in the United States for many reasons. It is a long article so read it when you have time. I read it all. The last few paragraphs are the most interesting about facts. http://www.thefederalist.com/2015/06/25/the-australia-gun-control-fallacy/ -
is it illegal to sell a gun with a non functioning safety?
bersaguy replied to JoeJ615's topic in General Chat
If it were me and I was trying to sell a gun that is designed with an external safety I would not sell it till the safety was fully operational. If I could not fix it myself I would take it to my gunsmith and get it fixed. Then and only then would I sell the gun. There is no way I could sleep at night knowing I sold and unsafe gun to someone that might have young children either in the home or visiting the home. Or even some adults for that fact.................JMHO -
I practically grew up on my Grandfathers Farm/Ranch in Cheatham County and we had whole hog Bar-B-Ques for family gatherings every summer 3 times. Beginning on Memorial Day and ending on Labor Day and my Grandfather was very particular about his wood. It was 70% Hickory and 30% oak and we would cook an entire hog for about 20 to 24 hours on an open pit using nothing except hot ash chips from a large fire burning about 20 feet from the hog. Family men tended the fire and shoveled hot coals under the hog all during cooking process. it did take about 24 hours to cook a 175 to 200 lbs hog that way but it was a wonderful experience and I got to hear some great stories from the elders of the family as they sat around the fire. My Grandmother made the Bar B Q sauce that was mopped on the hog about 10 or 12 times during cooking. I sure do miss those days of family gatherings. It seems as the elders of the family began dying off their traditions died off with them. My family has spread to the four winds and no longer gather except to bury someone and only then do many folks find out that the family is getting smaller...............I still have my memories and they do come to me when I also drive by a BBQ pit during cooking hours............Just an old mans memories is all................. :up: Oh yea forgot to mention the quart fruit jar that was always being passed around while the stories were going on. I don't think any of them would have been complete without that fruit jar....... :rofl:

What is confidence? A Navy Seal walks into a bar and takes a seat next to a very attractive woman. He gives her a quick glance then casually looks at his new Apple watch for a moment. The woman notices this and asks, "Is your date running late?" "No," he replies, "just got this state-of-the-art Apple watch, and I was just testing it." The intrigued woman says, "A state-of-the-art watch? What's so special about it?" He says, "It uses alpha waves to talk to me telepathically." The lady says, "What's it telling you now?" "Well, it says you're not wearing any panties." The woman giggles and replies, "Well it must be broken because I am wearing panties!" The Navy Seal smirks, taps his watch and says, "Darn thing's an hour fast." And that, my friends.......is Confidence!

After years of hesitation, Democrats rally around gun control
bersaguy replied to DaveTN's topic in General Chat
I don't guess anyone saw the chart produced by CNN after the debate where CNN challenged Clinton's number of 90 People a day dying in gun Violence. The chart showed that the largest amount killed by guns each day are accidental or Suicide. Mass Shootings was the smallest number on the chart. Clinton was careful not to define her numbers in every part where they discussed guns. Even some of their own committees say that they will have to tone down a lot of their gun control talk during the back end of the campaign and focus on more important issues the people want to hear about or they will lose in the General Election............. :ugh: :ugh: -

If they want that, I want all of them to pack their bags and get the hell out of no only Tennessee but The United States of America and go the hell back where they came from. Muhammad maybe their gods messenger but he is not mine nor any of my family's. Jesus is Our Messenger to Our GOD so just pack your bags and get the hell out............Not my so humble opinion this time......... :mad: :mad:

Bass - Cheatham west of Commodore Yacht Club
bersaguy replied to Peace's topic in Hunting and Fishing
This time of year it's hard to top a buzz bait. On Old Hickory I use a black with a chartreuse twin trailer 95% of the time with great effect. Glad to hear you were on them today. Son In law went to Priest lake today and said he had to fish in the pocket he launched in till fog cleared. He ended up catch several small fish was all but had fun from what he said. I have always said when you go fishing it is always better to have a jerk on both ends of the rod and not just one................. :up: :up: -
There are a great many businesses that offer 10% Senior Citizen discount and Veterans 10% discount but don't advertise it and unless you ask if they offer one you won't get it. I don't think Seniors or Vets should have to ask. I think the cashier could ask and that way they would all know or Just post it for all to see..............jmho

If you enter a gun store you are "the wrong crowd"
bersaguy replied to Glenn's topic in General Chat
I guess I have been running with the wrong crowd since about age 10 and not been in trouble with the law my entire life so guess I will just stay with the crowd I'm with. Seems to be a very safe bunch to hang out with.................. :up: :up: -
I will be seeing my doctor on the 14th for my semi annual checkup and I will be getting my flu shot while there. I had the Pneumonia shot last year along with the flu shot but only have to get one of those every 2 years. I contracted the Hong Kong Flu back in the mid 70's and I gave it to both my boys and wife in less than 24 hours. It was the worst flu I have ever had and very contagious. I made up my mind right than I and my family will be protected. Even though it is just me and the Mutt now, I still don't want that nasty stuff.........jmho

"Does he throw holy water on you and see if you melt?" Now that's funny right there but I don't think he is looking for vampires, just Christians but with that in mind he might want to have a pet pig in the store while sale is going on or offer free pack of bacon with every purchase..................jmho

Yea, I have one about 20 miles away. I don't really need any 380 or for that fact any ammo at present time. Would have to buy a bigger safe....... :rofl: I have not been going to the range as much until I get my eyes fixed but was just letting folks know that some of the Walmarts now have 380 ammo. They have been having most all other calibers except 22's all along but just now beginning to see the 380 back in their stores............. :up:
