LOL @ Fox ! he did have a police record. It just didn't make a distinction what kind of record it was. He probably could have made a few phone calls to correct it but since he was totally never denied a purchase he did bother..........JMHO a friend of mine would get delayed on every gun purchase he ever tried to make because the initial search showed he had a police record. He was a retired Police Officer!

I think your going to be very happy with your choice. Back years ago I had a dog trainer show me how to read a dogs facial expressions and you can get a pretty good impression of the dogs personality. Your pups facial expression is one that shows content and is attentive and will be a smart dog and train well. He's a beauty for sure and your going to have a great dog in my opinion. Oh yea, going out side to go potty will happen. It will just take a little time. Until then you may try paper training him.

Well I don't have to much to worry about for a while. I just got all of this done and am good now till 2026 on both DL and HCP. I figure by then I won't worry about doing much of either one that I would require them................JMHO

I could have went to a breeder and got a pup but except for Beagles back when I rabbit hunted I have always had mutts and I have a real soft spot in my heart for rescue dogs. Many of them get adopted as puppies and grow un in a family and then as the kids grow and go to school and parents work the dogs usually wind up either at a Rescue center or dumped out on some country road and the poor dog is totally lost. That was the case with Darby, A young couple adopted her as a puppy and had he for 5 years and I can tell that they spent quite a bit of time teaching tricks and playing fetch and many other things I am still learning abut her. but then came a real baby and Darby was no longer the baby and she was jealous and showed it by growling at the baby under her breath but enough for them to hear it and she was put up for adoption at the Sumner County Sheriff Rescue Center. I went there looking for a dog but they didn't have anything that just grabbed me so I came back home and got on line looking for other Rescue centers near by. Found one called Hairy Moose about 10 miles from my house. When I brought Darby home I went and stopped by the Sheriff's Rescue center to show the lady what I was taking home and before I could say anything she called to Darby by name. I found out that she had Darby at her center for 3 months and could not get her adopted out so moved her to the Hairy Moose to see if they could find her a home because they have more traffic of people looking for a dog and Darby had been there and was running out of time before they would put her down when I got her. I asked the lady if she knew the history behind her and she was able to tell me everything right up to the food she was fed growing up. Funny how things happen sometimes.

I lived through one Cold War and I expect to survive another. Lets face facts and the facts are if a Nuclear War starts there will be no winners but a lot of losers. Both countries would be destroyed almost imediately and both sides know that!! Along with many countries that are not even involved in the conflict. Both the United States and Russia have been Sabre rattling since the early 50's which in turn keeps other countries around the world in control. As far as NATO is concerned they are building a stronger alliance of neutral countries that would become involved if it was to become a ground war but if it goes Nuclear NATO is more or less not much of a player. As far as super fast Missiles, you can bet that if Russia has been working on such a weapon the United States has been working on ways to destroy them almost as soon as they are launched. There are no secrets anymore with the technology of today. I will go to bed tonight and sleep as well as I have for most of my life......................JMHO

Revolver/Caliber for Hog Protection while Dove Hunting
bersaguy replied to A516's topic in Hunting and Fishing
I more than agree with this for sure. If the hog gets close enough to do you harm a round of number 8 birdshot directly into the face will take out both eyes disbaling hogs sight giving you plenty of time to get away plus discourage the hog from wanting to get to you plus you will have time to shoot it a couple more times if you would choose to. Bird shot at close range can really do some serious damage..................JMHO -
How many of you have ACTUALLY been hog hunting?
bersaguy replied to Handsome Rob's topic in Hunting and Fishing
I agree with you on this rob. A lot of talk but no real proof. I have never been even though I have been offer to go on hunts I have never went. I do wish that even half the people that talk about hunting them would actually hunt them because in many places they are getting out of control and doing some serious damage to farmers crops and land. I did watch a program on TV last week about a bunch of hogs that showed up all at once in an area that didn't have any 6 months ago and they were actually going into peoples yards and doing damage and keeping the people from being able to go outside. Some local hunters and the Wildlife Service in that area organized a hunt and drove the hogs out of the housing area and into open pastures and between the hunters on the ground and the two shooters from Helicopters from Wildlife Service they erradictaed about 90% of the hogs but said that if they didn't get all of them the way they breed and have litters 2-3 times a year they would repopulate that area in a matter of 1 -2 years. I didn't know they bred that often and had babies that often. It's no wonder they are becoming a major concern in so many areas. -
What is your chosen Self Defense ammo
bersaguy replied to Ronald_55's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
I began doing some thinking after reading some of the posts about 380 Calibers and since I have at lease 4 Magazines for my Bersa Thunder I have loaded 2 of them with Hornady CD and 2 Magazines with Fiocchi FMJ. That way if I am going to be out and the weather is cold I will load the FMJ magazine in so if I need to use it I won't have ss much problem with perp wearing a lot of clothes as I would with Hollow Points. In warm weather I will put the Hornady Mags in. I can do the same thing with the Model 85 Bersa. Load 1 Mag with Hornaday Hollow points and one mag with FMJ's. I think options are a good idea and glad I read the posts on that situation....... -
Man Who Shot at California Deputy Had Been Deported Three Times
bersaguy replied to volshayes's topic in General Chat
The wall is like a locked door. It may discourage a lot of people from trying to scale it but it won't stop all of them just like a locked door won't stop everyone but it will stop at least 80-85% of them. Border security can handle the rest. Right now the border is an unlocked door that is almost a wide open door.............. -
The NRA is to busy sending me reminders that i have not sent in my membership fees to renew my membership. So far I have gotten 3 cancellations and four 7 day extentions with them almost begging me to remain a member and the only reason I have not renewed my membership is because I have not seen them doing anything that is what the NRA is suppose to represent but they make sure you get your renewal reminders. I am not sure I will renew yet. Still thinking about it...........

Man Who Shot at California Deputy Had Been Deported Three Times
bersaguy replied to volshayes's topic in General Chat
Well, he won't have to worry about the wall and coming back a 4th time. The police officer put an end to that and for that I applaud her and I wish she would have had 16 rounds and could have shot him 16 times....As far as when will the politicians stop protecting these people is when these people begin killing them or family members of them. Till then they have no reason to stop protecting them. They need them to help stop the wall. As far as I'm concerned they need to begin burying the illegals under the wall and put a marker where the Criminal is buried as a reminder to those trying to sneak in our country...................JMHO -
Will be keeping you and your in my prayers nightly.

They finally figured out they don't need a reason or have to explain why they rasie and lower the gas prices. They just do it and people keep buying it is why you have not heard any reasons why it has gone up.........

I had some really smart people in my class both in classroom and on the range when I went to take my permit class. It was not a to diversed group. Did have two middle aged ladies that aced their classroom and Range tests both. Then we had 1 elderly gentleman That did fine in classroom grade but range test was a lot different and I have to had it to Chad, our instructor as he ask the class to bare with him and Chad and his partner were down on the range trying to assist the gentleman in passing the range test. The issue was the gentleman showed up with a Smith&Wesson Snub 38 brand new in the box that he had never fired and 1 box of ammo. 1.5 hours and 4 boxes of ammo later the man was able to get a passing grade. Chad told the gentleman if he planned on using the gun for anything he needed to dedicate a lot of time and ammo at the range with the gun.

So just goes to show that even when back ground checks are done a felon criminal can still legally obtain a handgun so what will more back ground checks do if the ones now being done don't work? I have a friend I grew up with that still lives up there and he said he knows of a few other cases where felons were able to go through back ground checks in Illinois and were allowed to purchase hand guns but it never made the news and was caught and corrected and guns were collected by police before they could be used. I would like to know why they did not imediately go and take this guys gun away instead of sending him a letter asking him to please turn the gun in. All the letter did was tip him off that they knew he was a felon with a gun and he knew sooner or later they would be coming for it!! How many criminals are going to respond to a letter like that and take their gun and voluntarily turn it in?................

Recommendation on safe movers in Knoxville
bersaguy replied to Under-No-Pretext's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
Have you tried calling the people you purchased the safe from originally to see what they would charge to come out and move it. They might give you a better price since you bought it from the originally. Just a thought!! -
He better lose more than his HCP. He better lose some money in fines and do some jail time. He was evidently a Liberal with an HCP that took offense by someone supporting our President and country................JMHO

I have been writing my elected officials and also emailing them every week but have not heard back from any of them. You can bet when election time comes around I will hear from them wanting my vote. When I do hear from them then I will remind them of the many times I wrote them and they never replied back and see what their excuse is then. Along with telling them my vote depends on their excuse for not replying back.................

I don't think there can be a law written that will prevent criminals from getting guns. When laws are written and passed the only people that they effect are the people that legally own a gun and abide by all the laws written and passed. We all hear about many times a good guy with a gun stops a bad guy with a gun from doing a lot more killing then they would had the good guy not been there and reacted accordingly to stop the bad guy. Everytime this takes place the police call the man a hero for stepping in and stopping the bad guy. Those are the kind of stories the liberals don't want people to hear about because it goes against every one of their agendas. According to the Liberals there are no good guys with guns. If they had their way every gun owner would be a criminal and that is their real goal...........JMHO

Men Arrested for Stealing Machine Guns And Silencers From SHOT
bersaguy replied to DaveTN's topic in General Chat
After reading the post from the link again I am now wondering just what kind of Kangaroo court system they have in Neveda that they would even think about letting these guys walk out of court at all. And then it said there is a possibility they "MIGHT NOT" be able to posess a firearm again after their trial and if they get convicted and go to prison which I am doubting now that may even happen. Who has the shotgun they bought at the present time? This whole thing is a total joke and they may walk from all of it with a slap on the wrist if they even bother to appear in court at all.............JMHO
