I just bought a new Maverick truck and paid $1100 extra to get a straight gasoline engine instead of a hybrid. I am too old to be the one experimenting with new technology. I don't even carry a smart phone, I'll just finish out what time I have left living in the past.

The TGO people will always come through. Pretty good bunch of people here.

Thank you Jamie.

I moved from McMinn County 4 years ago. I belonged to Chilhowee Rod and Gun Club in Athens. After moving to Lenoir City I am amazed at the lack of places to sight in a rifle scope. I would like to join the Oak Ridge Sportsmans Club but need a sponsor in order to join. Would someone on TGO who is a member be willing to sponser me to join. Thank you.

I also have a NIB Maverick 88 18" I would sell for $285 and I'll just keep the 590.

Doesn't sound like a good idea to me. If you screw the slide up it will be your problem. If S&W can not get it out they will put a new slide on the gun. Do it right and send it back even if you have to wait a couple of months.

You need a New Riot Gun for the New Year.

Brand New Mossberg 12 Gauge Persuader Shotgun. 20 inch 8 shot. Has Bead Sight, Heatshield, Bayonet Lug, Sling Attachments, and comes with a factory pistol grip still sealed up in the bag. Comes with the factory box and everything it came with from the factory. I ordered this gun new about a year ago and tucked it away and forgot about it. Never fired. Only reason for selling is because I have 3 NIB riot guns and thought I probably don't need that many. Located in Lenoir City. $525

They chewed into the plastic fuel tank on a new John Deere tractor I had stored in the barn a few years ago. I now keep rat bait out in the shed at all times. About 8 years ago I bought a new pontoon boat in November. I stored it under the boat house on a lift above the water. I put a cover on it to keep it clean over the winter. When I took the cover off in the spring there were two bushel baskets full of foam rubber in the floor. They had chewed a hole in the cover and hollowed out a winter den in my seats.

The important thing is not what you see but what I have learned. I never bought a benefactor membership because I thought I was too old to learn to post a picture in the classifieds section. Now I know I can do it. Things are looking up.

It doesn't get any better than watching your kids do well. Congratulations.

Actually I just bought my 49 year old daughter a new Bright Red Kia Soul for Christmas. Since she is an only child and will inherit what little I have, I decided to give her part of it now so I can watch her enjoy it. Of course I also bought myself a new Ford Maverick truck while I was at it. No need to leave any money behind.

What part of TN is White House located?

Aren't we all!

I ordered a new Ford Maverick truck a couple of months ago. It is in transit and should be here next week. I could have ordered it in a hybrid that gets 42 MPG. I paid $1,100.00 extra to get it with a standard gasoline engine instead of the hybrid. I expect that one day electric automobiles will be the norm but at 70 years of age, I doubt that I will be here to see that day. I think electric cars are still very much in the experimental stage and I will let someone else do the experimenting.

Go online and look up Chilhowee Rod and Gun Club in Athens, tn. They have great facilities and are very reasonably priced. I was a member there until I moved to Lenoir City. They have meetings once a month. Go to a meeting and apply at the meeting.

Retired Railroad Locomotive Engineer. When Kentucky falls in, it will be because of all the coal I hauled out from under it.

I posted a gun on there a few days ago. When you log in and go to publish the ad it will let you list a few each month free. Like you I was a bit concerned about the $2.99 charge but it did not ask me for any info or credit card information. I believe it is still free for occasional listings just more complicated. I just went over there. Went to top of page and hit PUBLISH button and it took me right to the listing page. Try it. I think it is working.

Here's you something to think about. Trump had great policies and if he could have controlled his Trump personality just a little bit better, he would still be president. I really believe if I were this woman's neighbor we could get along. I believe I could shoot on my property without pissing her off. The problem with people today is everyone is so defensive that they can not see the other person's side. It is always better to try and work with your neighbors than fight with them. I've had bad neighbors and I've had great neighbors. If you want a great neighbor, be a great neighbor. In the end it is worth the extra effort.

That would have been the start of a great relationship with your neighbor for the next 20 years.

A few years ago I had a 35 acre farm that I used for a shooting range on occasion. First thing I did was go knock on the door of the elderly widow who lived next door. I explained to her that I would be shooting at times and that I would call her before hand to make sure she did not have anything going on that my noise might interrupt. I also assured her I would have a proper backstop and would never be shooting in the direction of her house. We got along great. I had no legal requirement to clear it with her but a little courtesy goes a long way towards having good neighbors.

I would send it to Smith & Wesson. They would probably replace the frame for a reasonable price and send it back to you. Then it will be done right.
