TGO David

It's almost guaranteed not to affect anyone east of I-65 if the radar data for the past several hours is any indication.  Middle TN's geography is once again ensuring that everything slides north and to the east of us.

In other news, the search feature still works.  Albeit slowly.

I think this is a remarkable difference from the Ruger that rolled over so quickly during the last ban.

Our endorsement is for the event itself as a way to support the firearms industry and to get the word out that we prefer that our Second Amendment rights are not trampled by the Obama Administration.  Our endorsement is not for Larry Ward or any other person.    If Jesus Christ Himself would descend from the heavens and sponsor a pro-2nd Amendment event, I'd gladly choose that one to support over one organized by Larry Ward, you, or I.  Barring something promoted by an infallible deity with an eloquent speaking ability, this event seems like a reasonable one to support despite the fact that the guy who came up with the idea doesn't seem to have spent very much time with Toastmasters.   It's pretty simple.  You're a smart guy, Oh Shoot... I'm surprised that Occam's Razor failed you and you didn't draw this conclusion for yourself.  :)

David, contact me directly via PM.   Thanks.

Search before posting.  There was already another thread about this.   http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/58449-burglary-possibly-tied-to-gun-owner-map/    

Good post.  Pinning it to the top so that it can be referenced easily.

Closing this thread to save the world from yet another Internet rumor.   http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/58452-walmart-ammo/page-3#entry884923   That post is all you need to know until proven otherwise.      

Simple request... if you're going to copy and paste something like that, at least have the decency to format it properly rather than letting your Clipboard throw up all over the forum.  The mess you posted trainwrecked the way HTML was being rendered on some browsers. Thanks. :mad:

There's no way for me to say this without sounding rude, but you need to understand that we've been working on this server issue almost 30 hours a week for the past two weeks and that's on top of my regular 45-50hr a week "day job" which routinely has me working 7am - 4pm and any number of hours between the time you likely go to bed and wake back up.  Keeping that in mind, I am absolutely exhausted and know pretty damn well what's causing the problems.   If you think you know something more about why double-posts are happening, I'm ready to hear it because I could use the relief that sudden insight would bring.

  Read Ben Shapiro's book Bullies.

I'm somewhat interested in getting a small group together for occasional Saturday morning coffee and discussion at a Nashville or Franklin area restaurant.  If you're interested, post up or reply privately.   Keep in mind that I want this to be small and I'm not making it open to all-comers.  I'm not going to publicly post where this is happening and I sure don't want folks showing up openly carrying because I don't want a lot of undue attention.  Consequently, I'm going to just say right now that I am going to be picky about who I invite.   Sorry if that sounds elitist or makes it seem like we're up to some sort of Forum Illuminati nonsense.  It's not and we're not.   If you're interested in talking about current events, the gun culture, political things, the weather, or TGO in a general sense, this might be for you.  If you're looking for fellow freedom fighters who are looking to stage a coup, keep looking because this isn't it.   :)

OMG... NO ONE RUSHED TO WELCOME ME SO I MUST BE THE ONLY HONEST, TRUSTWORTHY, GOD FEARING PERSON HERE!!!!!1 :panic: In case you haven't noticed, this site is huge. We see an average of 60-75 new registrations a day right now because of the political climate and the fact that a lot of people are waking up and realizing that something important is at risk of being lost if folks don't get involved. Your introductory post is one of a handful that maybe got missed by the dozen or so folks who actually make it their mission to welcome new members to this community. You'll have to pardon them for not seeing that you had finally arrived and heralding it with trumpets and confetti. Welcome to TGO. Don't be high maintenance.

Changed title from "As Expected" to "Burglary possibly tied to gun owner map" ... seriously folks, use some good titles so people can find this stuff when they search.

As busy as the server has been lately keeping up with legitimate traffic, I sure am glad we can have a thread like this where we're +1'ing a bunch of crap just to increase our post counts.   Oh, and add more load to the server.   :bored:

    Cool!  :up:

Who did you finally have do the install for you?

  I am now.  :)

I could certainly look at her for a four year term if she were elected President.

Regarding the Accuwedge, here is a good thread beating it to death elsewhere, comprised of people who rely on their rifles to get them home alive:   http://www.m4carbine.net/showthread.php?t=89153     Cliff's notes: Looseness between upper and lower receiver doesn't affect accuracy. Inserting unnecessary foreign objects into your rifle's working-space is asking for trouble. Don't do it.

  We have ways that have proven highly effective.  Why are you so concerned about it?  Do we need to watch your account activity?

So apparently the guys at the ENDO blog have a nickname for James based off of his eerily similar appearance to a LGBT porn star named Buck Angel who is apparently a female-turned-male (via hormone replacement therapy) and has the appearances of a man with the naughty downstairs bits of a woman.  The guys on M4Carbine were quick to point out this blog entry the other day and then someone asked for clarification on why they call James "Buck" and, well, the story unfolded.   I tell you all of this so you won't go Googling "Buck Angel" because I'm sure it's not pleasant.   You can see their Buck Yeager meme at the bottom of this blog post.  No, that's not James.  But damn they really do look alike.  The main point being, the blog gives a pretty succinct bullet-point break down on what has transpired.  And the meme makes me laugh.   http://www.everydaynodaysoff.com/2013/01/10/buck-yeager-will-kill-anyone-who-tries-to-take-his-guns/     ####   Edited to add:  There's been a lot of talk about his history in Iraq.  I don't have a dog in that hunt and am not going to Monday morning quarterback something that I wasn't present for.  I'll leave that to those of you with active combat experience to judge.  My beef is and remains the fact that as a prominent member of the civilian firearms training industry (whether or not you like him or agree with him, you can't argue that he isn't known) he really fucked the rest of us good with his lack of filter in the first two installations of the "Pack Your Bags" videos and offered himself up as the most useful idiot possible to the gun-grabbing antis.   Just wanted to clarify my position on this as all of these conversations seem to have taken on a lot more complexity than what is necessary.  None of this is about Route Irish or his AAR; it's about screwing the pooch so publicly, so grandly, that it plays straight into the hands of everyone who wants to make a case that his appearance, demeanor, words and intentions are indicative of all gun owners and are exactly why so-called assault rifles should be banned.   That's my bitch here.

  Noooooooooooooooooo!  :panic:

I just wanted to make sure folks caught this.

  This is what i was about to post.   But as our co-admin MacGyver posted a while back on the subject of running a suppressed home defense weapon, I'd at least like to be able to hear what the police are asking me once they arrive.   I'll be running a can on both my nightstand gun and my shorty AR soon enough.
