Thank you, pop pop! I don't have much interest in the Memphis area per se, but would have a lot of interest in duck hunting next year along the Mississippi flyway.

I'm inclined here in TN to have a strong preference on trades to deal with CCL holders. What are you guys' preferences on qualifying buyers or sellers that you're comfortable dealing with?

Ah, thanks for that information. On the IllinoisCarry.com forum we just rated folks one at a time, on a voluntary basis, in a continuous thread, for quality as buyer or seller. The trader feedback system here seems, well, much more systematic. When I get to making trades on this forum I will have to reference the old record apparently, at least for a short time. That shouldn't be a problem. And I could add info from gunbroker and gunauction.com as well.

I resolve to really get out and enjoy Tennessee. We love it here. The people here (and on this forum) are fantastic. I need to get way more into the great outdoors. By Spring we may actually be unpacked.....fishin' time. The only things I miss about ILLannoy are a few friends (who are talking about leaving anyway) and a few great restaurants. Happy New Year to all!

I think I'd rather be waterboarded than go to that place.

Thanks, guys. That explains it.

Wow, a good neighbor and good landlord story all-in-one. There is hope!

Why "staggered or single stack?" How could it be either or both?

Took class on Saturday 12/8. DMV 12/10. Prints 12/11. License rec'd Tuesday 12/18.

Welcome! Just got here 3 months ago from Chicagoland. You beat me to it!

This was an interesting forum a couple of years ago, before my time now here in TN. I'd be interested in current and useful opinions, though I'm guessing nothing much has changed. The formula seems to be, look out for yourself, period. And actually, that makes sense. If this SHTF stuff happens, it's really gonna be ugly. And so sadly, you really want to be on the ugly side of ugly. Yikes.

Well, why not? Ordered the Ruger yesterday, picking it up tomorrow.

Don't know how long I can resist. I may lose the AR platform for this. Thinkin' aboudit.

Well, I think it's a close call, but that just might beat my Tisas ......................Wow, what a nice Heirloom! I've seen a lot of 1911's and I too might vote for that as the ultimate beauty queen, though I didn't get to hold that one like you did. But I trust you on this one. Congrats. To hold that would be an honor.

Hi Bersa, In your statement above you say, " Well, needless to say the recoil was about like a 12 guage 3 inch Mag round which I was not really expecting and it hit my shoulder fairly hard. " A 12 gauge 3 inch mag has about 5 times the recoil (in ft-lbs) vs a 30-30. On average about 53 vs 10, so I don't know where you got that from, but your story was, as always, very fun and interesting! Q

LEVERevolution ammo is designed to have a polymer point to enhance the aerodynamics of otherwise flat-nosed 30-30 ammo beyond 150 yards. OP said 50 yards would be the max shots taken. So unless there are some other great features I think LEVERevolution would not be cost efficient.

Hi Chance, get on down here to Tennessee. We got here a few weeks ago from Streamwood ILLannoy, and absolutely love it. We live about 4 miles outside of Maryville. The TN tax on investment income will be 2% for tax year 2019, 1% for tax year 2020, and then gone. Would expense and hassle of moving to SD and then TN be worth it to avoid those low rates? You'll quickly see that the members on this forum are a MUCH happier group than our poor old buddies on the IC forum. Let us know how your plans progress. Happy to answer any questions you may have about the IL to TN transition. Every single surprise we've had has been a good one. Just sent my IL CCL and FOID card back to the IL State Police today. Sayonara! So glad to be out of the nuthouse they call Illinois (and Chicago.) Q

Ok, play games. Cajonpredfan and I were talking about general historic results by both parties. By that standard this is no big deal, at all. If you want to fine tune our statements to just Dem gains (which we were not talking about)......fine. Celebrate.

Right. This is exactly what is meant by "Fake News." Now most of the country is under the impression that this was a huuuuuuge historic loss of midterm seats, when it was one of the least in many many decades.

Check out this list. Maybe it's in here: https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/shtf

Check out ammoseek.com . In this case, that caliber search produces 267 results ..... https://ammoseek.com/ammo/7.62x54r

That's why I was the lone vote above for several cases inside a suitcase. I want my guns to be as inconspicuous as possible.

That is the absolute correct statement of the applicable law.
