In state con carry has no reciprocity. As an example, Vermont, the original Con Carry state, has no permitting system. Citizens of Vermont have to acquire non-resident permits from other states to allow them to carry outside of Vermont. So while I absolutely desire a true Constitutional Carry bill to pass, I will keep my permit as I do require the ability to carry outside of TN.

The ConCarry bills only remove the necessity to get a permit. They do not affect the permit system that already exists. The permit will still be there for those that wish to acquire one.

Optics ready pistolas... Somethin to play with or the " Real Deal "..?
Chucktshoes replied to leroy's topic in Handguns
I do have to admit that I’ve developed a real fondness for the Eotech style donut of death dot/circle reticle. It’s fast when I want it to be and precise when I need it to be. -
Not only is ATN trash, they were also guilty of ITAR violations in helping export 3rd Gen night vision gear to Russia.

If you’re planning to lock the gun itself, yeah. If you’re planning on using one on the case, maybe. The lock must be able to secure the lid closed. If the lock allows the edge of the case to be cracked open, no.

It’s not necessary to use a TSA lock on a gun case. I didn’t use one last time I flew and won’t use one. Outer luggage yes, but not the gun case.

A while back David purged a bunch of long dormant accounts from the database. Those are the posts that remain. -

First page on DDG as well, but at the bottom of the first page. -
Which means more time to call them.

WARNING! Tisas 1911 is a DO NOT BUY or... (Tanker's Revenge)
Chucktshoes replied to a topic in Handguns
Yep. He got banned years ago and then this thread kept popping up again, and again, and again taking up a life of its own. IIRC Tanker really hated cops and used to post every single story about police misconduct he found. A good chunk of his posts disappeared in one of the Gen Politics purges. So somebody added the Tanker’s Revenge to the title and it’s still going. If I had to venture a guess it’s because “Tisas” is a very unique word so the search function works very well and always points to this one thread. -
Optics ready pistolas... Somethin to play with or the " Real Deal "..?
Chucktshoes replied to leroy's topic in Handguns
I apologize as I don’t have much experience with the aftermarket slide manufacturers. I have 3 pistols with optics. My Springfield Hellcat OSP which came factory ready. My Shadow Systems War Poet which came with an optic, and a Browning HiPower which is currently with my gunsmith getting its slide milled for an optic. I’m normally not one for milling the slide, but that one is a bit of a special case. It’s gonna get a rail installed as well. -

And that even after the Nashville prices have gone stupid. -

Chucktshoes replied to leroy's topic in Handguns
They are the real deal and as much of technological leap as optics were on rifles. My preferences are as follows. Milled slide > plate system. Direct attachment allows for a lower profile and a more solid mounting. Either purchase a new, precut slide, or whole new gun designed for the optic you want. If you decide you don’t like it, you can put the original slide back on and sell the aftermarket slide for a lower loss than a gun with a chunk missing from its OEM slide. For the optic, Trijicon RMR or Holosun. Everything else just comes up short. I have no opinion on the taller iron sights as my optics sit low enough in the slide to utilize the OEM standard sights. Only my opinion, and worth what you paid for it. -

I bet. Especially in the Bay Area I would imagine it’s a really, really foreign concept. -

Still here for it. -
I keep reading the stories of new strains that are appearing on a seemingly daily basis that are believed to be either resistant to the vaccine or are not showing up on the tests. I think folks should really start preparing themselves mentally for this never going away.

I’ve shot at Stones River when I’ve visited Nashville. It’s a true public range operated by the TWRA. I like it. Here is a list of all the public ranges operated by the state. Others would have to help you with the private ranges around Nashville. https://www.tn.gov/twra/hunting/firing-ranges.html -
Yeah, he’s got a few million now.

The wha?

Once again I find myself in Nashville with some unexpected down time. I’ll be on lower Broadway initially, but if any of y’all would like to meet up, hit me up.

Are you prepared for this incoming ice storm?

My wife has been feeding some that took up residence at our place.
