  1. I picked up some Honey Moon a few weeks ago along with various other beers that they don't sell back home in Kentucky, and took them all with me to leave with my dad so he could try some different things. I sampled the Honey Moon lager and decided that I liked it enough to pick up a 6-pack for myself last night. Had one before bed. Our fridge generally stays well stocked with Yuengling Black & Tan and Yuengling Light Lager but I may pick up some Yazoo Dos Perros to mix up my selection a little. Despite what that makes it sound like, I may have a single beer once a week. If that. It makes me feel pretty sluggish if I drink much of it and my metabolism loves to just store those empty calories away. Now, Jack Daniels on the other hand... I have a hard time saying no to Single Barrel.
  2. The only rules we insist people go by are the ones in our "Code of Conduct". Just a bunch of common sense stuff.
  3. Welcome, Dave. Got any pics of your 1911 you can share? We love some 1911s around here.
  4. It's just indicative of the truth that SCOTUS Justices are appointed by the sitting President at the time. The sitting President almost always (has he ever not?) appoints someone who's beliefs mirror those of his own political party. In other words, it's the Good Ole Boy System at the highest level.
  5. Merging some threads so that we don't have a dozen different topics on this. Thanks.

    Definitely not something to carry on hikes as protection against bear attacks.
  7. Gents, I appreciate the replies. If you'll refer to post #34 you'll see that a new extractor resolved the problem that I was having. Already on order for the rifle are an extended magazine release, hex retaining screw, scope mounting plate and a few other odds and ends. Next month I'll probably order a threaded 16" barrel so that I can share a suppressor between this and my SBR AR15 project, and a nylon coated polymer stock.
  8. Welcome to TGO, Charlie.
  9. The victim should have stayed the hell in his car. Obviously he thought he was tough enough to go confront the guy who cut line. Obviously he was wrong. What if the guy who cut line had been strung out on coke and instead of beating the dude, he shot him in the face at point blank range? I bet pride gets more people killed than we'll ever know.
  10. "Cell phone." "Pager." "Multi-tool." "Insulin pump." "Springfield Armory XD Series, 9mm, 16 rounds. Wanna go shoot sometime?"
  11. Did the guy call 911? Did he try to intervene in any way? Or did he simply stand there and "collect evidence" in case the attacker beat the victim to death? The fact that he stayed in such close proximity tells me he wasn't exactly in fear for his own life.
  12. How in the hell is that guy being called a Good Samaritan for video taping it? Jesus this stuff just makes me sick.
  13. Here's the flip side to this coin... We don't always get to choose when we will have to fight. Sometimes that choice is made for us by the other person. When that happens, you will react... but how? Something to ponder.
  14. It certainly narrows down the possibilities doesn't it?
  15. As I told the other guy, I would have just kept my mouth shut. The thug was obviously being a bully and looking for a reason to flex his "muscle" ... so anything you said could have given him that reason. Mouth shut. Eyes and ears open. Mind on your surrounding and plan of action should you be forced into a situation where you had to defend yourself. No place in line at the store is worth going to jail over, even if you are ultimately cleared of any wrong doing. And if you mouth off to the guy in the store, who's to say he won't be waiting for you outside? Bad idea. Cooler heads prevail, so be the cooler head.
  16. You may not have been snugging the rifle's buttstock up close enough to your shoulder if that happened. I've never had a rifle rattle me to that degree, but then again I always pull them up tight against me. Food for thought.
  17. A guy on a car forum posted this question as a thread and asked for feedback. I thought it would be interesting to see what the members of TGO would have done (or not done) in his shoes. I told him he should have kept his mouth shut.
  18. I've always assumed the check at the door was for anything you were bringing in to sell or trade. If they start patting you down or wanding you for your carry weapon, I would stop going entirely.
  19. I've never done the unload thing. My carry weapon is my carry weapon. I just keep it concealed and go about my business.
  20. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=812_1214310936 A peak into the future of America if we become lazy and complacent in defending our rights?
  21. It definitely has potential.
  22. Well I could help him out on the range fee for On Target. We have an annual membership so I'm allowed to bring a free guest every so often. The biggest problems I have had with that range is that sometimes the lanes are in various states of disrepair and the ventilation system doesn't always do a great job of keeping the smoke down.
  23. Tower if my schedule and yours permit, I'd be happy to meet you and have you shoot at On Target (indoor range) in Murfreesboro while you are in town. It's about 30 miles southeast of Nashville proper. Also several of our members are also members of Owl Hollow and any of them could have you as a guest there. Cost for a guest to shoot is $5.
