Congrats, love the gen 4's. The G23 makes a great carry package. Sold my G23 when I got my 19, had my reasons but I'm sure there will be another 23 or 22 in my stable again soon enough.

IDPA at nashville armory?tonight?
miller_man replied to broox's topic in Competitive Shooting Sports
Say what?? They have IDPA matches at nashville armory? -
Mmm, looking good! Those grips are a nice touch.

I think if your probably going to be carrying a glock as a duty gun in the near future, a 19 or better yet a 23, makes really good sense. But I would also try them both out if at all possible, shooting them would be much better than just holding them. Lastly, lots of gun folk agree everyone should have at least one glock, and lots recommend the g19/23 because of its versatility. Best part is, you can't really go wrong with either.

Cool, prob try to make it out early and help setup.

What time fellas?

These are some amazing skills
miller_man replied to Dolomite_supafly's topic in Training Discussions
Wow, both those videos were amazing. Some of those drills were awesome. Looks like I've got lots of room for improvement, lol. -
Thieves targeting vehicles with gun related decals
miller_man replied to daddyo's topic in General Chat
Yep, this is the main reason I don't have any gun related decals on my truck. I don't hardly ever have a gun in the car (except on the rare occasion I go somewhere restricted), but still don't won't someone breaking in my truck looking for one. -
Sounds like it's time to find a new gun shop. Just moved from Chattanooga myself, which gun shop is it? Have heard nothing but great things about Dan Wesson 1911's.

Yep, pretty much sums me up perfectly.

Well, putting on my grown up hat, even though I don't want to - I do have to agree with this. Still funny though.

GSSF Match - Music City Tactical Shooters
miller_man replied to HOGNUT's topic in Competitive Shooting Sports
Yes, it was a great day to get to the range. I did decent for myself, not great but not bad. I'm used to about weekly range trips, but between moving and work, not getting to shoot for almost a month, BOY it sure was fantastic getting to smell some gun powder and feel some recoil again finally!!! Nice club you guys have out there, looking forward to getting back out and meeting some of you. -
GSSF Match - Music City Tactical Shooters
miller_man replied to HOGNUT's topic in Competitive Shooting Sports
Headed out as well. -
Several nights a week, has been the biggest improvement factor in my shooting.

That's what I've heard. Glad to hear it, I've got one of their rock chucker kits, hope to never need em, but glad to hear they are good to deal with. I've had a good experience with Lee as well. Don't ask how, but I managed to strip out the threads on my 9mm decapping die. Called them up, told them it was my fault - they said just send it in and they'd fix or replace it. Had it back a few days later, couldn't tell if it was new or fixed but I was a happy customer.

That's awesome. Now I have a task everytime I go to wally world now, lol.

A thought I had on increasing .22 LR availability
miller_man replied to JAB's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I like it. I think it has some merit, and could possibly allieviate some of the problem. Would it instantly solve the problem? No. Is there any real chance of the ammo co's doing it? Not really. -
GSSF Match - Music City Tactical Shooters
miller_man replied to HOGNUT's topic in Competitive Shooting Sports
Sweet! I can just come out sunday. I have to go out of town for work friday and saturday, so I thought I'd miss IDPA or whatever on saturday. This is good, I'm getting about desperate to get out to a range again. So they'll replace springs? Lol, man I just ordered a new recoil spring for my G19. -
Ya, I think the 22 cazyness is still going strong mostly because so many people are still buying/hoarding it. I've also read that its pretty low on the list of calibers for manufactures to produce because the profit margin is so low. I know I've walked away from shooting 22lr for now. Which sucks because it is so fun, but half the fun was also tied to it being so cheap to shoot, not anymore! I can't bring myself to shoot any when I think about how I used go shoot a 500 rnd box for fun over a few hours for around $20. I've bought a little here and there over the last few months (like real little, like maybe 1-2k rnds), but it was all from the store at resonable prices and I was buying other calibers anyway. I hope it comes back to the old normal, and sooner than later, but I've mostly put it out of my mind and just go shoot my centerfire cartridges.

Mmm, looks very nice . . . you poor soul.

Just got myself a LCR a few weeks ago. Was torn between the LCR or the 442 for a few weeks. Really came down to the smoother trigger of the LCR (really only did a dry fire comparison at a store, not a real great comparison) - and most important to me was the ability to put a real, visible front sight on the LCR (the XS big dot). I have crappy vision and the j frame front post wasn't gonna cut it. Although I haven't been able to find one is stock yet to put on my LCR. I've only been able to get it to the range once so far and run a box of umc 38 spcl through it. It was pleasant and fairly easy to shoot for a 2" barrel snub nose. Looking forward to my holster showing up and trying it out in my pocket for a BUG or really hot days when I wanna strip off the shirt. Cosmetics for a carry gun are noexistent to me, hence I carry a glock daily :shhh: .

Music City Tactical Shooters--IDPA Match May Third
miller_man replied to Mechanic_X's topic in Competitive Shooting Sports
Thanks Catseye, sounds pretty good - hopefully I'll see you guys out there. -
June 7-8 Close Range Gunfighting Chattanooga
miller_man replied to Cruel Hand Luke's topic in Training Discussions
Hey Randy, should be signing up for this one soon - just got to get settled in from this move and make sure my income is stable before I drop the coin for this. Looking forward to getting back out there and learning some new stuff. -
Music City Tactical Shooters--IDPA Match May Third
miller_man replied to Mechanic_X's topic in Competitive Shooting Sports
New to the nashville area and the forum here, but thinking of getting out to one of these soon - might just head out to this one. How many people usually show up and how long does it usually run? I was shooting in chattanooga IDPA a few times but the numbers started to push 80+ and the event took 4-5 hours, usually was just too much standing + waiting time for me. I did notice it looks like you guys run it twice a month, so maybe that spreads out the people a little bit. Either way, if I don't get out to this one - I'll get to the next one. Just don't wanna dissapear for over half a day and have to face my better half this soon after our move. Need to find somewhere out here to shoot anyways., -
Another new member here. Heard good things about this forum from others, figure it was about time to join. Looking forward to mingling with other TN gun folks. Been just about obsessed with shooting since I got into guns about 3 years ago. Mostly enjoy shooting handguns, but if you can load it and it goes bang I probably like it. Have had my carry permit a little over 2 yrs and carry everyday. Taken a course here and there and shot some IDPA as well. I just moved from Chattanooga to Nashville (Belle meade area) and looking to find some new venues and places to shoot. I will be getting out to the music city IDPA matches soon, and really looking for a place to train and shoot some real drills and practice - I've just about gotten past the square ranges anymore. Thought this would be a place to find some places and people to do just that.
