  1. Google the Nemo area in East Tennessee near the Wartburg, TN area. There is a small campground near the river there. It's rough, rocky, and quiet there during the week. I'ma thinkin it's Rock Creek campground. I used to do lots of train watching there at the tunnel. leroy...
  2. Just got a Shadow Systems CR920 out of lay away... Fourteen shots with one in the spout, full grip, 3.4 inch barrel. Looks a lot like a Glock 43x, only a better grip and a tad lighter. Seventeen oz unloaded. It will go into service with my beloved 938 and 238. Will easily carry in your front or hip pocket. The only downside I see to this little pistolas is it's big brother, the MR 920, has a better trigger. I think it's simply a trigger geometry - lever length problem ya simply can't easily fix. That said, it is plenty good enough for repelling boarders. The trigger is about 5 lb and a bit soft I'ma thinkin. Ya got a wall to pull back to, but the trigger needs a bit more travel to break. The MR is much shorter... leroy

    FN Reflex

    I'ma likin the FN too... The internal hammer is a home run shot for me... leroy.
  4. Stupendous Brother..! A rare gem, indeed... Congratulations... leroy ...
  5. Belted... The coated bullets will not lead your barrel. They are clean. leroy..
  6. Bob.. I'ma thinkin my bullets were coated lead flat base. I have shot em out of the 238 up to 4 grains of Unique. I wouldn't worry pressure wise with the Browning lock up type pistolas. I would load em back a bit ( say 3.8 or so ) for a blow back pistola. Have fun leroy.
  7. If the .356 is a lead or plated bullet, it should be ok. As I remember, I loaded some hard cast .356 bullets ( 95 grain I'ma thinkin ) with 3.8 grains of Unique for my Sig 238. Have shot bunches of em. IWhen in doubt, I would just buy 380, ya can find it for under 40 cents per round at the usual spots Good luck. leroy
  8. Used ta travel yo in this area... As beautiful a mountain place as ya will ever see... Winters are slick n snowy because of the elevation. leroy...
  9. What Mista Nicemac said..! Mista Hozzie is exactly right... leroy...
  10. I've been following this thread with great interest. Thanks for all the insight and information as to this issue. I do not think this is very complicated nor do I believe there are any " gems of truth " nor ' insightful revelations " contained in this demented child's writings. The reason : This child was insane, pure n simple. Sane folks simply cannot fathom the the thinking of the insane. What made sense to her simply will not make sense to you n me; even if the " reasons " were articulated. That said; I am of the opinion that this child was very bright and thorough in her target studies. The TBI/Police assertion that this study is somehow so powerful and detailed as to need to be hidden from the public is laughable on its face. The TBI/Police delay and obfuscation campaign is nothing more that an attempt to keep the " Trans Agenda " out of the news and to allow things to calm and fade from the public's mind. I get that the continuing re hash and commotion about this shooting is hurtful to those affected at the school, but it ain't goin to go away. This is an issue that the public is interested in. In the end, it will matter not go away until these writings are published. No_One is right: You will find no rational explanations in these writings for this tragedy. That said, let's see what they say... Stop the legal maneuvering and bring these writings into full public view. leroy...
  11. Great job Brother... Ya got the " camo eye "... leroy...
  12. Brothers n sisters: Am on the hunt for a 45 Colt or 357 magnum Vaquero 7 1/2 barrel... Would prefer stainless but will take a look at whatya got... PM me with anything ya might have... Many thanks. leroy...
  13. I seem to be beaten up by the " I'm afraid " and the " ultra cautious " wing of TGO. Whaddya think the chances are of both houses passing this " 28 the amendment" by 2/3 in both houses ( I think ) and ratified by 3/4 of the states...? I get that we ought ta be watchful. I don't get that we ought ta be afraid. leroy.
  14. The USA ain't Germany... This was a different situation all together. The Allies made Germany a pauper state with the reparations demanded by the Allies as revenge for starting WW1. Everybody in Germany wuz sick n tired of being sick n tired of seeing the nation's output being sent to France. None other than the Supreme Allied Commander in WW1, French Field Marshall Fouch, predicted another war with Germany within 20 years. He was wrong by one year...1918 to 1939... That said; I'm by no means advocating taking Newsome's political moves lightly. We all should keep a close eye on him an his allies. The SAF and GOA are good ways to do so. leroy...
  15. I think it is, in fact, a pitch to get the Newsome name n bonafide out there in the national Commie Arena as the next " Joe Biden ". There ain't a 1 in a thousand chance of this passing and becoming a part of the US Constitution. It's nothin but political pandering for the lefties n red meat for the " Children of Lower Estate "... leroy..
  16. Looks fabulous..! Great job... leroy....
  17. Prayers goin up Brother...
  18. Get yourself a set of Cimmaron or Uberti 36 navies. Get some real black powder n balls... Learn how they work n shoot em a bunch. Ya will then know for certain why the Colt is great. If ya don't like the cap n ball thing, head to the nearest Bud's Gun Shop n pick up a Cimmaron SAA. They can't be beat for the money spent. leroy.
  19. Buy without hesitation... These pistolas are a cut above a Glock. GLWS... Wish I had an extra dollar or two and you wuz closer Brother. leroy....
  20. What Mista FUJIMO said ..! I used ta hip pocket carry a commander length 1911 in mine. A baby Glock just disappears in a good pair of overalls... leroy....
  21. Nothin prettier than Fontana Brother. It looks a lot like Norris, only steeper n more remote. Ain't sure about the fishing. Hiwassee looks a lot like Fontana as well... leroy...
  22. Doug Turnbull Restorations... None better. leroy....
  23. Analog... Got bad news for ya Brother... The diesel fuel or vinegar based stuff won't kill woody plants like brush n small trees. Our guys used ta spray em with 2 4 5 T... Nasty stuff. I ain't sure ya can get it anymore, even with the herbicide/poison training. The vinegar based stuff will kill weeds, nothing more... leroy...
  24. I believe we are in a cold war everywhere. The blue inner cities and blue states have been fighting it since the Obama years. Here's hopin it stays cold here in Tennessee. I fear it won't, however... SIGH. leroy
