    You’re a full blown progressive. Hope this helps.

    By the way, politics is a verboten subject on this forum.

    I’m starting to think your right!  I do believe in the 2nd. Unconditionally. Every single citizen.

    I do lean a bit center to left on abortion. I mean I don’t give a hoot what other people do. As long as it don’t obstruct my pursuit of happiness!

    im quite a bit to the right on immigration. Why are we allowing more people in when we have folks living in the streets! We can’t take care of what we have!

    I like to think I lean closets to being free and allowing others to be free. 
    I still vote for people not party’s. That’s the way we used to do it. My biggest have to is someone fairly honest. Politicians are by design dishonest. But I need them to know what reality is. But honestly until we can get politicians that have had to decide between paying for prescriptions or buying food then we will always get what we have always got. Can’t expect different if we don’t demand it.

    Most people would be better off if they quit worrying about what others have, quit waiting around to be lifted up, be thankful for what they do have, and instead of plotting and praying for the downfall of someone better off than they are, maybe study the path that person took and what makes them tick and possibly learn how to be more successful themselves.  What a novel concept.  

    I agree!!! I agree that could be a way to keep your head buried in the sand also. If we were not worried about the things others had we wouldn’t know anything about anything. That’s how the world knows what is “cool”. I know there are 2 or 3 people that do it differently but let’s say most do it because someone else had it or something along those lines. 
    I do apologize as I thought we were just chatting about what we feel is wrong with the USA. I didn’t mean to offend you as a person.  I just wanted to say the way we have done things do seem to be working for some of us. A large percentage of us anyway.  I just figured most people are intelligent enough to realize it's not really working and we should try something else. Or we can keep our heads in the sand and continue to believe in the failed American dream. Mostly because 22 veterans kill themselves every single day. To me that is a failure in every way possible. Changes are happening. Our kids know it’s not working. Perhaps not even them but perhaps their kids will not continue to try and breathe u def the sand while saying how great everything is.  I do sincerely apologize if you feel offended. We all have a certain “construct” that we live in. We create it. We believe it. Instead of knowing it’s something that we made up.

    How much does this person have the right to make?

    Whatever his/or conscious will allow. BUT perhaps I see more of an US as Americans than the ME Americans. If your stupid rich and are surrounded by desperate people and communities then you are the target and won’t last very long even in memory, instead of becoming someone who lifts others and make your environment better for everyone in it. 
    Like I said, perhaps I’m a conservative socialist. Hell I don’t know. I hate we have become a country of the haves and have nots. I know it’s been the same throughout history. I figured with the invention of a god like Jesus then it would create more shame around excess.

  4. I like almost ALL of the responses. I, in my soul feel we are still fighting the fight against rich people. Sort of. The rich will steer people to the smaller less important issues of race, civil rights, or immigration. It’s just a shell. The biggest issue is a capitalist system that favors only the rich. How have we accepted, over the past 50 years, almost 160% rise in the basic cost of living with a stagnant 61% average wage increase? That is a recipe for growing poverty. 
    I believe every man and woman has the right to make a living wage. Not all of us agree on this. THAT IS THE PROBLEM!! If we did agree then it would be. Instead most of the wealth is funneled to the top. Why in the hell do we have millionaires when people are living on the street. Families not just the normal junkies. Veterans not just prostitutes. I am not sure if I am a socialist or not. I lean  mostly conservative but the way we treat our veterans is despicable. The way we have 1 person worth over 200 billion dollars while there are our hero’s living on the streets is despicable.
    I strongly believe in freedom and the pursuit of liberty. Why are we sending more than 100 billion dollars to Ukraine, when we have families living in their cars? WTF is going on?

    We are only as strong as our weakest link.  Currently and for the past 30 years, our weakest link is the way we treat our hero’s and how the rich get richer and poverty grows like an epidemic. We are all too worried about ourselves barely getting by to worry about our kids kids future. 
     


    My only post of this nature.  Stop worrying about the little stuff, it’s the big stuff that will be our downfall.

    Garrett001- there’s someone ahead of you in line who has expressed interest in the Glock. If that deal falls through I will reach out to you. Thank you for your interest!

    Extreme "stupid" interest!!!! If I have to drive to Nashville, in the snow, on my lawnmower, with shorts on to make it happen, it will be..........🥶

  6. Hellcat RDP (HEX WASP optic & compensator) package up for sale. Cash price is 1100.00.  Less than a hundred rounds through. Will come with following mags 4-15rnd, 5-13rnd, and 1-11rnd. Following holsters 1-IWB Crucial Concealment holster 2-OWB holsters. Leather/Kydex & complete Kydex.  TLR7SUB tac light is included. Comes with factory range bag, mag loader, box & paperwork, thread protector, optic cut cover, optic adjusting tool, and flat mag baseplate for 11rnd mag. Great little pistol. Optic is dead on. Tritium night sights and they co-witness great.  Purchased for wife as a EDC. Being a small pistol , it was a little snappy for her liking so after 1350 invested we are ready to sale and moved onto a 43x.
    Prefers trade would be a Glock 45 MOS or 19x. I would be interested in mostly 9mm/40s&w/357Sig Glock pistols, Sig m17/m18,P320/p365.

    Those are all preferred trades but worst I can say is no.  
    Located in Greenback & work in Knoxville. I am willing to meet within reason.

  7. Ok fellers! Last weekend at the range, I noticed a guy shooting a white pistol. Being the nosey guy I am, I went over to take a look and chat. It was a Canik tp9sfx signature series. It was both ugly and beautiful. It fit my hand perfect. He allowed me to shoot it. I then realized it was stupid accurate. It made me look like I knew what I was doing. After I left the range I started researching the company Canik and the pistol model. Of course I needed one now! I then learned what I learned and wanted to get others opinions on Canik, the model, reliability, etc. The model is a bit large for EDC but as a nightstand gun with 20rnd available, accurate, the FDE color is beautiful, the very competitive price on these just has me pondering. So tell me what you know, like, dislike, wish was different. Thank you for your help fellers!!

  8. I have a Hellcat RDP. I’ve had it for a few months now. Close to 1000rds through it. Comes equipped with a very decent optic and a compensator. Originally purchased for my wife but the recoil was a bit spicy for her. Not one to let a gun go unwanted, I started shooting it on weekend range trips. I have 4-15rd mags, 4-13rd mags and the one lonely 11rd mag. I have 3 holsters but not the one holster just yet. I have since installed a TLR7sub light. Which of course makes holsters almost impossible to find. Also I’m not fond of kydex holsters. Remind me too much of cheap toy holsters. I’ve learned that it carries  very well. I’ve grown to be more favor to it when getting ready to leave the house. It “hides” well. Better than previous carry guns (Glock 32/23/19) Always prefer the 15rd mags as they make my hand fit so much better. Probably should have got the Pro with the same WASP optic but just don’t know if it would conceal as well. Loading the mags are a PITA. I can’t use common speed loaders. After 13rds in it gets painful for those last 2 but the loader that comes with it does help. 
    It is an accurate pistol. For me anyway. Out to 20 yards. It’s IS a little snappy but every small pistol I have shot is. I like it a lot.
