He will most definitely become bear chow one day soon.

That sounds pretty reasonable. It is hard to really know what went on when you only have the convicted defendants side of the story. I hope more info comes out during the appeal processes. This is an interesting case.

Mars, not trying to be argumentative but I don't understand this. When the judge ruled the document was inadmissable, he had not seen the document. He took the word of the batfe on what was in the document. The batfe lied to the judge about the contents of the document. How is this not perjury?

As to the perjury...The defense requested a batfe document. They testifies that it contained privileged tax info and therefore didn't have to turn it over. After the verdict the defense was able to show that the batfe lied and the document did not contain the privileged info they claimed. That is perjury. The judge ruled that the form did not matter. The defense should have been allowed to present the info and let the jury decide if it is relevant. It does not matter if the judge ruled the document irrelevant, the batfe still lied to the judge to keep it out of court. That is perjury.

Mars, I understand you can't believe everything a defendant tells you. Here are couple of things I have a problem with. You keep saying the Olofson clearly new the gun would fire in burst mode. How do you know. The only person saying this is the man that was actually was arrested with the rifle. This man has been caught in several lies and he was paid for his testimony. Shouldn't the threat of going to jail for being in possession of a "machine gun" be enough to compel him to testify? Obviously not because the batfe has to pay him for his testimony. The batfe itself concluded that the rifle was not a machine gun but a malfunctioning semi-auto. That wasn't good enough so they changed to soft primer ammo and kept testing it till it malfunctioned again. We do not know what mods you claim were made to the gun because the batfe would not let the defense inspect the gun. Think about this, you are trial and you are not allowed to examine the evidence against you. The defense was not allowed to have one of their experts examine the weapon and testify. The reason is the prosecution and batfe said it was irrelevant if the gun was modified or if it was simply a malfunction. That didn't matter. The only thing that mattered was if they could make it fire more than one round with the pull of a trigger. Lets say that you are out shooting skeet with your over under. You pull the trigger and both barrels fire because of a malfunction. You are now looking at federal jail time for possesing a machinegun. There is now legal precedent for that scenario. I forget which case but a higher court in a different jurisdiction ruled that a malfunctioning gun does NOT a machine gun make. The judge wouldn't allow the defense to even bring this up to the jury. Put your self in Mr Olofson shoes. He is told that it does not matter if the gun was modified or not. It does not matter if the gun malfunctioned. It does not matter that the batfe concluded that it was not a machine gun. The only thing that matters is they were able to make the gun fire more than one round with pull of the trigger. Remeber the batfe has no set testing procedures to follow. They can tinker with your gun as much as they want to get it to malfunction. And once it malfunctions you are guilty of having a machine gun. I am not a lawyer but I know right from wrong and this just seems wrong.

Mars, not sure if you have seen this thread over at ar15.com, but it is 88 pages of the history of the case. Mr Olofson post a lot of the documents from the trial and tells his story. His screen name is Bladerunner. There is a lot of info there and it really sounds like he is getting railroaded. The batfe committed perjury int he case to keep certain batfe documents out of the trial that would have helped his case. It is a lot of reading but it is worth it. He had public defenders for most of the time and they didn't do a good job. GOA is now footing the bill for his appeals. They have gotten one of the big law firms who worked on the heller case to represent him. Here is the link: http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=1&f=6&t=507483&page=1

Don't do it. Although the 45lc is not a high pressure round it does have more pressure that a 410. The max saami pressure for a non ruger 45lc is 14,000 psi. Rugers can handle a higher pressure. The max saami pressure for a 410 is 12500-13500 depending if it has a 2.5" bore or 3" bore. It doesn't seem like a lot of difference but I would not recommend it.

You will have the perfect gun after your next trip to Nashville.

A hookah bar is basically a place to go smoke tobacco. A hookah is a tobacco pipe of Near Eastern origin with a long, flexible tube by which the smoke is drawn through a jar of water and thus cooled.

Well I am a little late to the party but will throw my .02 cents. I love kahrs. I have owned three different models. They all have been very reliable and accurate. They seem to just fit my hand right. Good reliable guns.

We all are gun guys and gals so when we see or feel a bulge on a hip we automatically think gun. If he isn't a gun guy then he probably will not automatically think gun. I wouldn't worry about it.

Would that be Dinty Moore Beef Stew?:D:D

Put this in your gutter, turn the auger on and send along the gutter. The spinning flaps throws all the leaves and crap out of the gutter. After it reaches the end of the gutter or a turn, just switch it to reverse and it drives right back to you. The kids got this for me for fathers days. Cant wait to try it out.

Me!:D:D

Hopefully you will have enough time to rack one into the chamber...it's better to just keep one in the chamber. imho.

Thanks for all the replys. TDR - Thanks for the leg work. I would like to keep his first bike under $1000 if I could. He is average height wise but a bean pole. He only weighs about 85 lbs. The one comment on most of those were "to fast for me". Thats why I was thinking a smaller sized bike. Although I dont want him to outgrow one to fast either. Mugster - thanks for the link to mtdr. I will check them out.

My 13yo son has decided he can't live with out a dirt bike. Anybody here have any experience with bikes in the 70-100cc range. Any tips on suggestions on brands to consider, brands to stay away from, etc.. would be appreciated. Not looking to get into motocross or anything like that. Just something to ride around the neighborhood or down on the farm. Also, are there any good training/safety classes around Nashville? Thanks

What kind of pump shotgun is that? The wood looks really nice.

Although I am a fairly accomplished hunter, I have never hunted bear. We were interested in hunting black bear in East Tennessee. We were trying to keep the cost down but may look into getting a guide. Thanks.
