Not a clue what the back story is on this one. Maybe a movie shot? Anyone recognize the actress if it is.

Other differences between NY CC and TN EC. For anything but the restricted permit you have to have a valid reason for wanting a permit like you carry large amounts of money for your job. Personal protection will get you a no. I lived in a very conservative county, the judge that made the decisions even came to our local meetings of the NY gun rights organization and it still took me 6 months after I turned in the paper work. My reason was I take walks after dark in the country. Took a month just to get the personalized application which included a photo and fingerprints on the application. You also can not even touch let alone own a handgun without a permit. The system is setup to delay issuing as long as possible. This is to make the world safer, but there is no class room or range requirements just bureaucracy.

Prop Guns???

Looks like a nice cruiser.

Welcome from NE TN. Too far away to give suggestions on a range. I have set my own up behind the house and go to a public range in the Cherokee National forest when I want further distance or shoot things that might annoy my neighbors if I shoot too much at home. What do you take to the cruise-ins? I have a couple old vehicles and take in a few shows every year. Check out my profile page for a photo of one of them.

Was the armorer even present during the shooting? Seems like the guns should be locked up when she is not present.

I was into whips and chains before I retired.

I always wonder why they need to know sex and race on the form at all. Seems like profiling. Of course I also wonder why we need the form at all, especially for those of us that already went through background checks to get a carry permit.

Wife and I are 73 and got our boosters 10 days ago. She wears her mask when ever she goes in anywhere. I put it on if required or the majority of those in the building have a mask. I don't think masks do much to protect me or anyone else, she things it does. I don't want to rock the boat or start a fight over a mask.

Good idea, I'll try it in the Spring.

LMT L2BPG grenade launcher - Cut off??

We bought our place before the Kudzu started greening up and I saw lots of vines and thought it might be the case but the seller made it out to be no problem. The way Kudzu propagates it is nearly impossible to kill it completely, the best you can do is control it. Goats are one of the best methods if you can fence in the area. I had a local goat farmer that was interested in using part of my property but in the end decided not to because of a seasonal stream running through it that he thought young goats might drown in and some trees that the older goats may girdle and kill. What I gave done to control mine: Mowing regularly if possible, I had a large area terraformed so it could be mowed once a month. I smothered one hillside with some old tarps I had that I spread out and weighted down with rocks and let the sun cook it for a coupe of summers. I also buried a bunch under shale fill where I wanted to extend a flat area over a drop off. In the deeper woods I noticed what looked like hoses running through the woods then up trees, turns out the Kudzu would make runs till it saw a little sun then go up. I spent a lot of time with clippers and bow saw cutting the vines to kill the Kudzu that was spreading out over the tops of the trees. Some were 2-3" in diameter. Now for the real control method when you have areas you can not do any of the other methods. Trycera herbicide, I asked the people that control Kudzu for the power company to keep it from climbing the poles and ripping down the wires. They use a very strong mix with a truck mounted tank and sprayer and the Kudzu starts wilting with in hours. The active ingredient is Tricolor: 3,5,6-trichloroethane-2pyridinyloxyacetic acid 29.4%. I us a generic version called Crossroad from the farmers Coop. I mix it 8oz to the gallon which is about twice what the jug says but way less than the professionals. On a sunny day the Kudzu will be wilting by the next day. I used a lot of this the first couple of years with many heavy sprayings each Summer. Even hired a pro to do massive spraying to the worse areas twice. Now 6 years later I spray about 6 gallons (mixed) along a ravine that is not mow able and I do not own both sides of along my driveway and the edges of my woods. I do this level of spraying early when it is just getting leafed out and again in July. I do extra touch up spraying of about 2 gallons each time a couple of more times each Summer. Of course I continue watching and clipping new shoots or spot spraying as I see them. I'm convinced that if I just stopped I would be back where I started within 5 or 6 years but the Trysera and mowing has it controlled. I started with it being solid Kudzu on both sides of about 800' of my 1200' drive, about 1/2 acres beside the house a couple of acres out in front, and hit and miss around the rest of our 7.5 acres. Seeing what "bobsguns" posted while I was typing this long message, Roundup does not work well enough to bother with. The Trysera if used carefully will not kill grass and such but will turn it brown for awhile, it is a broadleaf herbicide.

Since live ammo should not have been on the set, since it was declared cold since he was not pointing it an actor when he shot, seems like a murder plot from a bunch of TV shows.
