Cruel Hand Luke

If you are wanting low light work then THIS is what you are looking for......Low Light Class Oct 22 Dayton TN

This one is getting closer and closer! Everyone owns a shotgun, but how many have actually learned to efficiently and effectively use it for defense? How many shotgun myths do you believe? "You just have to rack it and they'll run off" or "you don't really have to aim just point it and pull the trigger" or "Birdshot is just as good as buckshot".....you will see why all of these cliches are just simply wrong. We cover everything from loading, unloading and clearing malfunctions to transitioning to handgun to shooting on the move to transitioning to slugs for distant targets and a whole lot more. Just owning a shotgun does not make you any more prepared to use it than owning a guitar makes you a skilled musician. Come on out and get the skills to run the shotgun under stress and defend your self, your home or your business with the most powerful weapon available to civilians!

Just a few days to go!

JUST ONE WEEK TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That was my point.....people are ERRONEOUSLY reporting that the ORIGINAL bill got passed......

Apparently it is not clear what actually got passed....here is what some are reporting......http://www.thefederalistpapers.org/us/want-a-gun-free-zone-tennessee-says-thats-on-you-literally In one of the most awesome pro-gun laws to come down the pike, Tennessee is blaming business owners if they disarm citizens with “gun-free zones.” If those citizens get injured because they were stripped of their Second Amendment rights, the new law – which goes into effect Friday – allows gun owners to sue the person who set up the “gun free zone.” Bearing Arms puts it in layman’s terms: Any permit holder injured as a result of being stripped of their right to self-defense, and their handgun, in a posted gun-free zone can file a lawsuit within two years of the event as long as they meet the following requirements: were authorized to carry a gun at the time of the incident prohibited from carrying a firearm because of a gun-free sign the property owner was not required to be posted by state or federal law and posted by choice So if a grocery store in Tennessee banned guns on its property and a robber, or a bear, or a rabid mongoose barged in and killed or injured someone who has a carry permit but were prohibited from carrying his or her gun, they could sue the grocery store owner for damages. “It is the intent of this section to balance the right of a handgun carry permit holder to carry a firearm in order to exercise the right of self-defense and the ability of a property owner or entity in charge of the property to exercise control over governmental or private property,” the bill states. The legislation places responsibility on the business or property owner of the gun-free area to protect the gun owner from any incidents that occur with any “invitees,” trespassers and employees found on the property, as well as vicious and wild animals and “defensible man-made and natural hazards.” This is a great idea and other states should adopt a similar law. If you’re going to disarm Americans, then you bear responsibility for what happens to them. Awesome.

This one is coming up in just about a month!

RIP to a true state treasure.

We have a winner....The issues seem to be centered around SIG USA guns.

Right at 2 weeks to go on this one! Still time to get signed up!

We have 13 spots left as of today.

Right. You absolutely can buy a gun and give it to someone (Christmas present, etc) as long as the recipient is not prohibited from being able to own the gun. This guy did not get turned down for being a journalist....he got turned down for for being a known douche bag wife beater with an alcohol problem.

The answer I put on why I didn't think there would be any meaningful legislation passed this year..... There is not time left in the year for Congress to fashion a bill that would protect both civil liberties and do anything useful to address the real problem. Simply banning certain types of guns is not a panacea and would have little effect on crime.....we did that in the 90s and it had little effect.... So now many - even Democrats- view that with a skeptical eye and feel that banning guns at a time when we are under attack by terrorists is a foolish feel good measure that will have no effect on safety.

Since most non military "social purposes" fights in the US are LESS than 25 yards, the accuracy is more than you'll ever need (even a 4" at 100 yd gun is a 1" at 25 yard gun), the mag holds more than you'd likely ever shoot (most civilian use of rifle goes less than 4 rounds) , the sights are simple and are a notch and post like your pistol , the 7.62x39 HP, SP and plastic tipped hunting bullets (like CorBon,Winchester, Hornady, Federal, etc) are all accurate and perform well on people sized game, and the AK will still run when it is filthy if you are not very fastidious about cleaning your gun and an $89 ultimak allows you to mount an aimpoint micro without changing the balance of the gun if you feel the need for an optic.

Even if they did point it out it would not matter...TRUTH is not something they are at all interested in....

The "Average" gunowner is just that...average. Much like the "average lawn mower owner", "average car owner" or "average golfer". They know a little , think they know more than they do, don't really care to be better informed, and don't really give it much thought. They own guns like I own a hammer....just in case of emergency but I have no desire to build things and it wouldn't bother me if I never had to hammer a nail into anything ever again. Others own it like most people own golf clubs...to play once or twice a year with their buddies, complaining the whole time about how bad they play and the rest of the time the clubs sit in the closet and the average golfer neither cares about getting better at the sport and certainly does not want to invest the practice time to actually get better. Like most people the "average gun owners" cruise through life concerned more with "keeping up with the Joneses" and keeping ahead of their credit card bills each month than with how their rights are affected by political decisions in Nashville or Washington. They think the President "makes laws" , think "the government" is trying to "take their guns" and want to make sure that before "the government" does that they can make sure they get all the "bullets" , "clips", AR15s, whatever they will ever need "while they still can" , and at the same time thinks the NRA is just a nebulous group of telemarketers and mail marketers out to get more money or a boogeyman that supports terrorists, white supremacists and crack addicts having machine guns ...yet they don't understand how continually mindlessly voting for the same candidates who their union tells them to vote for actually brings them closer to that whole "government taking your guns away" actually happening.... and they cant understand why it is the party they keep voting for that keeps trying to pass the laws that will limit what guns and ammo they can buy..... They think a magazine is a "clip", a semi auto firearm is an "automatic", think "bullets" are what you call cartridges, think "Heads" is what you call bullets (or slugs...thank you TV cop shows), think "Smith and Western" is the brand name of the revolver they inherited from their grand father, think "bulk" is some buzz word that some how makes 1000 rounds of "bulk" ammo different than 1000 rounds of "regular" ammo (OK, but is it "bulk"?) , think "knock down power" is a real thing, think everything they see on TV cop shows with regards to firearms , firearm laws, use of force and gunhandling is correct, and think that because they "grew up around guns " they know all they will ever need to know. Well .....I grew up around electricity and I flip light switches on and off every day.....that does NOT make me an electrician by osmosis.... That is why nationwide about 4% of people have permits to carry , only about 1% carry on a regular basis and why only about 1/10 of that number take any additional training classes after their permit class. There are plenty of people who OWN guns that are not "Gun Nuts", or even "Gun people" and certainly not competent gun carriers....and frankly....most of them are OK with that....they just do not care. In fact SAAMI (Sporting Arms and Manufacturers Institute ) thinks that about 25% of firearms purchased are never even fired. So what we sometimes view as typical ...or "average" might be average within our particular peer group but it is in no way indicative of society (or gun owners) at large.

Or make them make an even tougher choice.....you say you want a gun ban.......then stop illegal immigration...as long as the borders are porous and middle easterners keep getting brought in unvetted then there will be NO new gun laws and the laws become void if illegal immigration starts up again .

A firm understanding of muzzle and finger discipline, solid gunhandling skills (being able to load, unload and draw from a holster and reholster without pointing it at yourself or others) and that is about it. I will cover a review of the basics at the beginning while we have daylight to get everyone on the same page, but as long as you are safe with your gunhandling you should be fine.

I have started getting deposits in for this class. I will keep a running track of available spots as deposits come in.... We have 14 spots left.
