Looking for Ruger 10-22. No preference on Black/SS, Wood/Nylon furniture. Not looking for new. This is a gift for a new shooter and would be his first 22. This is what he wants. Let me know what you have to let go. Thanks for looking.

Standing up for his beliefs. Good for him! -

My thoughts exactly. Early on, the Nashville Chief, in a presser, indicated he had read the Manifesto, but not finished it yet. He was still investigating it,and would not speculate on any reasons for the shooting. I believe the shooting was completely in retaliation for the Tn laws just passed on the Drag Queen shows. The young lady was, I believe, mentally unbalanced, and wanted to bring attention to her cause. But that's no excuse for shooting children and staff. Initially it was stated that a Canadian member of the LBGTQ etc, was in Nashville for the intended demonstration. I think the shooting scared her off. I've heard nothing else of her. -
A well dressed professional hunter! lol!

A year ago, about that anyway, I had a5 minute or so conversation with of the solicitors. He was a fairly nice guy. Listened to all I told him about the LaPierre issues. He very politely asked if I'd reconsider my stance and donate to become a Benefactor Member. I told him no. I would not donate as long as Wayne and his cronies were running the show. After a brief silence...he actually told me he understood and agreed with my comments. I hope he wasn't fired over that.

Old enough to know better! Or, conversely...old enough to not give a s***!

Ah com'n now! That was a great one! I thought it terribly funny! My wife however...did not have a sense of humor. Thought it in really poor taste. I just told her "It's how we roll on TGO!"

A great many of us here understand and agree with your decisions and how you manage your life with your companion...the furry one, not your lady. lol. Although sometimes their are similarities in both situations. In either case, many of us, myself included will prioritize our daily lives for them. Our last, Molly, was my constant companion throughout my cancer issues and recovery. When her health issues cropped up, we took as good of care with her as with ourselves.

Yes it does. But weren't there some exciting and interesting threads and posts in those days? Some of the biggest laughs I had came from them. Wish I could remember some of them. Sadly, those were the days I was on some really nasty chemo drugs and my recolections are spotty from them. The Valdemort era was wonderful though!

One is none...two is one...Therefore you only have one and can buy another and have two.

Thank you, sir. Been called a lot of things recently, but not "established". Old Fart most often, and "he who walks like drunken sailor" more recently. I'll text tomorrow, at a reasonable hour. I have an early morning doc visit, and late afternoon event scheduled.

Makes me think of my Dad. Why? It just does.

If you wish to pass it along, I would gladly take it. And just for the reason you would like. I have a few young friends that would benefit from this. Sadly, they are not in my neighborhood. I would need to go outside Nashville, to the Cookeville area where some of my young 2nd and 3rd cousins live. As you say, a good way to introduce them to shooting. Thanks for offering this. Beautiful Pup!

Well...that certainly was interesting. -

So brilliant an analysis. Really. I wish I could have said it this well. -

Problems are plentyful and hard to define at times. Solutions are easily found...especially by government; they're just not easily put into place. Please take this as the scarcasm it is intended to be. Nothing in life is easy...except dying. -
WAG. Could the 629 be a Lew Horton? I tried to find one back in the days of Rabbi and Eastside. It sounds vaguely like what I remember of it, especially the 3" barrel.

Wonder if he meant car caught up in? Possibly referring to the EV vs gas push? Just what I took it to be. Maybe wrong. Just a WAG on my part. -

Wifey and I were talking a few nights ago about Biden and obsession with the AR/Assault Rifle. My thought and response was this...Why does he want them gone? So the Chinese forces won't have a population that can defend themselves. That's what he's being paid to do. JMO I told her to think about the line attributed to the Japanese as to why they didn't want a land assault on the US mainland...becasue there would be aman with a gun behind every rock and tree. Biden and his controllers are trying to make that impossible with all these past and proposed firearms laws. -
Sorta looks like me in the 70s! Embroadied shirts and jeans were stylish then! Hair and frizzy beard abougt right, but never wore a doily on my head.

Aside from the "want" factor; I think these might be an option for people like my wife. Those with small or weak hands and wrist issues. I've tried several revolvers and now on semi-autos as a best choice for her. Long trigger pulls and weight are also issues this Glock could avoid. I'd have it loaded and charged, safety off, if it had one. This way it's action ready. As I tell her, this would be, once again...my opinion, good for her. If and when it's necessary, pick it and ready to go. Finger off the trigger( and she does that well) until it's mandated you have to shoot. I tell her fire until 1 situation is over, and/or 2 until the gun is empty. I also have placed lasers on all that I've gotten for her. Just watch the dot and pull. As usual, these are just my opinions.

Sadly, I've never kept a G17. But have a G23 and a G34. Does that count?
