May I ask if you found this beauty locally or on a motorcycle website? -
Sorry my man, all the TGO Pro-Tech knives I have left are all keepers for now. I considered offering you a Magic2, but that cool mechanism talked me out of it. Good luck with your search.

I’ve sold a couple. I’ll check to see if there’s anything left I’d like to get rid of when I get a chance later this evening or tomorrow. I started out with #9 and then moved to #3 after the previous holder of the #3 position dropped out.

What's the Chances of Tennessee Going Gunless?

Zero! -
This is similar to what I’m hearing and reading about the movie. Little political explanation, fewer explanations about the cause of the division and heavily focused on the journalists. That being said, I’ll probably watch it several times on Netflix.

I believe I mentioned earlier that I’m a fan of “3 of 7 Project” on YouTube. I always wondered why I could relate to Chad, even when I had a differing opinion. Here is a short video of Chad and Blake explaining the meaning behind the name. This is the type of ministry I love. It’s positive and optimistic, without the in your face condemnation and judgement. The channel is well worth a follow. -

I’m also enjoying “Shogun”. Rest up and get well soon. -

I just finished the first season of “3 Body Problem” on Netflix. It’s a very good sci-fi series. I can’t wait for season 2. I love asking questions and discovering or having answers explained, so the pace of the series was fine for me. My wife also ask a lot of questions, but she wants immediate answers, so it was a hard no for her. -
I'd like to hear more about the Canadian connection and the related gun sales activity.

Pretty close. Also, if you all remember how crazy inventory and prices started getting out of hand some years back. I started the practice for redundancy and spare parts if things had gotten as bad as some had predicted. I was always the contrary optimist about that situation, but I wasn’t crazy enough to not be prepared. It just became a bad habit. My wife loves to travel, so guns are the most affordable things I can purchase for myself.

It’s not difficult to believe. Lots of guys on here have some serious collections. I don’t think it far fetched that most would be in like new condition. Despite differences that some of us my have, outside of my family and military buddies, these are some of the most honest people I’ve ever met. I normally purchase new, moderately priced guns in pairs. I’ve sold and purchased several that are exactly as described. Some guns get a magazine or two through them, and some don’t. I have some expensive guns in the safe that I just wanted, and they’ve never had a magazine inside them. The most important thing I’ve learned about buying or selling on here is to be honest. A good reputation makes it easy to do both. In most cases, if the sale were local, I’d almost always throw in something (ammo or accessories) for free. Good luck with your future sales or purchases!

We tracked the kids in high school. From the stories the girls tell on him now, it didn’t stop my son from being a sneaky hell raiser. Now, every family member shares their location if traveling out of town alone. My son had a crazy flight this morning from Gainesville to Miami to New Jersey. He checked in each step of the way, and is currently sharing his location until he arrives back in Gainesville next week. There is no daily tracking. That reeks of insecurity. A complimentary notification of destination is all that’s required between me and the wife when leaving home.

Blackjacks, Saps, Batons, etc

I purchased this tire thumper and small felling axe in this color to match the colors on my old side by side. They were usually with me on the trails or under the rear floor mats in my Ram, over the rear floor storage compartments that carried matching color ratchet straps, portable air pump, tow straps, tire plugs and tool bag roll. I could always justify having them with me. I also have a pretty hefty walking stick with a retention strap that I purchased to use when I had jury duty in downtown Memphis. Never a problem with security or the court during the period I served. -
GLWS! Just curious, are you going to be replacing this with another unit? I currently own the HP Reverb G2 V2 and I’d like to hear from anyone who has invested in the new Apple product. If I run across anyone looking for a good bargain unit, I’ll pm you their info.

Classic. This and the howling female.

I really enjoyed the original. The new series looks to be a winner. -

I like him. He’s never to high or too low, and regardless if I agree with him, he always explains his stance with conviction. -

I’m currently enjoying “Masters Of The Air” on Apple TV+. It’s about WWII bomber pilots and crews. Very good series. On YouTube, I’m following 3 of 7 Project featuring former navy seal Chadd Wright and Chadd’s separate page. He’s a common sense independent thinker who prepares for the worst without overthinking everything and spreading panic. Both pages are very good in my opinion. Chadd thinks Trump is the best president in his lifetime, but thinks people who worship Trump and display Trump flags, hats and other paraphernalia are idiots. -
I purchased several silencers around the same time. I wanted dedicated silencers for certain pistols. No reason other than not have to swap out during range sessions. I have the Silencerco Omega 9K & 45K, Osprey 9, Octane 2.0 9mm, Octane 45, Dead Air Mask 22, Surefire SOCOM 300 SPS and Surefire SOCOM 556 Mini2. If I were purchasing today, I’d probably invest in a top shelf multi-caliber can.

I’m enjoying these answers while I think about a discussion in the benefactor lounge. I’ll maintain very few people are willing to pay pennies more for anything. I know we are talking about products, but all one has to do is look at the bellyaching anytime fuel or groceries go up. I believe the majority of Americans would balk at the idea of purchasing something at a 10% or higher price point, just to buy American, regardless of the product. People don’t want to pay 10% more put food in their mouths or gas into the automobiles that take them to earn their livelihood. I doubt they’re willing to pay a premium for anything else.

Probably my last post on the most recent videos. More videos to be released in a few weeks. Two patrol officers who made the scene on dash cam discussing how the SCORPION unit was a big red flag. They also said they were too hands on, and adrenaline junkies. The female officer said Nichols was messed up bad. The male officer said he didn’t want to see Nichols, because he didn’t want to have to write about it. I wonder how many other good cops knew that unit was off the rails and didn’t want to compromise themselves by speaking up.

I just watched another video of the cops at Nichols home telling the parents Nichols was intoxicated and on something stronger than marijuana. As they walk away from the home, Mills says “I just hope… he needs to make it. We did everything by the book.’” They were only seconds from the cove that lead to Nichols front door. In another video, it appears one of the cops notices Nichols isn’t breathing after being placed into the ambulance and says “they need to bag him.” I’ll update more for those not interested in watching long videos.

The little stunt the mayor pulled by giving Davis the interim chief title last week is going to blow back on him.
