Very rarely do I go to South Nashville. Thank you for the offer anyway.

I really like it, and have been shooting 2 3/4" shells in it. Then I read where it might be chambered for 2 1/2". I really like it and don't want to blow it up. I should get the chambers measured so I'll know for sure. The 2 1/2" shells would be good anyway because it weighs nearly nothing, and is rough on the shoulder with regular shells.

http://www.rstshells.com/store/p/18-20-Ga-2-1-2-Lite-Vel-1125-7-8-oz-Load.aspx   $11 per box here. I'm thinking about trying a case in my old Ithaca.     http://shop.polywad.com/product.sc?productId=39   $10 per box here if you buy a case. Higher than 2 3/4", but today, the price isn't too out of line.

Yes I do, actually. Moreover, I do not want nor expect Syria, Afghanistan, Egypt, Libya, Iraq, etc. to come here and try to straighten out our problems.   I don't expect many of them want us there either.

They're going to kill somebody. That's how they've been bred and raised for thousands of years.   I figure that as long as they are busy killing each other, they're leaving us alone.   Why should we get involved. We would only go kill some of them, and they're already doing that without our assistance.   This way, none of our men and women get killed in the process.

Wow! Thanks for sharing, and I'm sorry this happened to you. I've never heard of that before. Do you think it was static electricity from your fingers, or something from the cell phone?   Hope you get better soon!

Nice rifle!

Can someone explain to me what these people obviously baiting a race war intend to gain from it once it happens? I don't expect it to be easy to stop once it gets started. I also don't see it being far off in the future.

I haven't found a bad place in Tennessee, save for Memphis.   I'll give you a bit of advice. When you come here, forget everything you think you know as it relates to politics, religion, and "the way we do it in New York".   Also, do not comment on anyone's southern accent.   We don't like that here. If you insist on "doing it the way we did in New York", stay in New York.   Tennessee is a different place in every way imaginable.   I guess the area depends on whether you prefer mountains, hills, or billiard table flat land. We have it all from mountains in the east to flat land in the west.   If you enjoy sneezing and sweating in the summer and shoveling snow in the winter, Tennessee is for you.  

I happened to be listening to Beck's radio broadcast one morning when he found out about it. He was carrying on about the Trevon Martin case when a lady from Knoxville called and talked about this. He had no idea, as he isn't in Tennessee, and the story never made the national news.   During the next break, he read about it on the internet, and when he came back, he went off!   What doesn't get reported in the news is much more telling than what does get reported in my opinion.

It'll be good as anything you can lay hands on for your intended purposes, in my opinion. I would check the availability and price of ammunition before buying. Most likely it won't be a problem, but at least you'll know for sure.   A 25-06 is a great round for the reloader.

They're just like anything else John Browning designed.....Perfect!

Obama; if you had a son, would he look like one of these guys? :huh:

A Marlin model 39 lever 22 is guaranteed to put a smile on someone's face. Be prepared to shell out some cash for one though.

I'm 40 and still do a lot of hunting with a 243.

Heck, you're a guy! You're supposed to like guy stuff.   I bought a new Stihl leaf blower last fall, and I've had nearly as much fun with it as most any gun.

Honestly, I've heard more about the Obama's new dog than I have about this shooting.

I voted against Corker, and I'll vote against Alexander, but I think Chris Christie has a better chance of winning the Boston Marathon next year than Joe Carr has of unseating Lamar. Hope I'm wrong.

There. I fixed it for ya.   I know this won't be popular with some, but it would have been driven into the ground had the races been reversed. I've yet to hear or see a news story even mention that fact in passing. I know it was made painfully clear the ethnicity of Treyvon Martin and Ronald Zimmerman.   Anybody else notice that? Just an oversight I'm sure.

I guess the question remains "What do you do with someone like this?"   I know I used to really push the line on a lot of things as a high schooler. It drove my teachers nuts, gave the principal fits, and really didn't help me much other than relief from boredom.   I like to think I grew out of a lot of that. I don't believe Embody ever will.

Model 21 Winchester, Parker, LC Smith, , Lefever, and Ithaca doubles were the premier American shotguns of yesteryear. Many of them still survive after decades of hard use afield.   I used to trade at Game Fair when they were on West End ave. I haven't been to their new location. Judging by their inventory, I expected them to be arrogant asses, but I've been treated very well by them in the past. They always kept top shelf guns and fly rods.   I'm of the opinion that a proper shotgun should have two barrels. If I had deeper pockets, I'd feel the same way about rifles. I expect you'll really enjoy that one. Take it out and bust some clays, shoot some squirrels, or a myriad other things it was designed to do. You'll really appreciate the craftsmanship and quality in it that just doesn't exist in a Mossberg pump or even a Remington 1100 for that matter.

Thanks. I'm definitely interested. I like the fact it is made right here in Tennessee!!!

Prices and options?   If we agreed to buy a lower receiver in the earlier thread, are we still bound to that, or are you just starting over?

You know, I'll bet that if a group of concerned gun owners got together and had a serious meeting with him, there would never be anyone prosecuted.

Did you show them your badge? :cool:

LOL! I don't think they'd miss you much.     How far above your target's center is this line?
