  1. yeah, I still carry my Kimber 4", I even stood in line in front of a Knox Co Deputy at chic-fil-a 'print' and all. If they dont post properly its not illegal, even to open carry. The most they can do is ask you to leave.
  2. well to answer my own question I went by there last night. And Erik88 is correct I did not see any posted signs at any entrances except to the Regal Movie Theater, which appeared to be a standardized sign from Regal, but it is VERY small. I have been there several times and carried because I did not see the sign. However there is a Code of Conduct on the side wall of the main entrance, #7 on the list is no weapons including firearms and knives. This does not constitute a legal posting so Im going to carry there until they follow the law.
  3. I saw some discussion on this in another thread. I have been in there many times and have not seen posted signs, however I enter through the Sears entrance almost exclusively. Anyone seen signs on other entrances?

    Mileage?

    2008 GMC Sierra, just rolled over 116,000, average about 51,000 per/yr. Im a consutling forester, with property all over East Tn
  5. Looks much better after tomorrow Im about 80%, There
  6. The Poster says "carrying a dangerous weapon is prohibited .....unless on official buisness". What if I "officially" dont want to get my ass robbed, does that count?
  7. I like Hornady XTP in my Kimber 4", I also like Hornady Critical Defense FTX it has a polymer fill in the hollow point that helps prevent FTF. I also like all the others listed, Golden Saber, speer gold dot, in respective order. Most of the Hornady stuff can be found for about $20 for a box of 20 which for SD ammo isnt bad
  8. haha, yeah thats my thumb, he was so fat and squirmy that was the only way I could keep ahold of him
  9. My name is Neil, here I am NOT shooting something in Montana
  10. +1 good observation!!!
  11. As a reputable buisness owner I think you have a responsiblity to offer a fair price. Like Rick of Pawn Stars says, here is what its worth, here is what I can offer because I need to make money. If its hadled like that then its up to the owner to make their own discission. If its portrayed that $100 is all its worth and thats not true, then I think we portray the buisness as unfair. If they offer $100 because they dont really want the gun, then thats they're right. This is just a normal gun shop not an antique or relics specialist, I would think it would be hard for them to unload the gun for a proffit.
  12. Im looking for a new knife for EDC work/self defense. I like these two most. SOG Aegis Tanto Zero Tolerance Scavenger 0400 I like both knives, but The SOG is AUS-8 steel and the ZT is S30v I can do without the serrations but its not a deal breaker the SOG has a Zytel handel and the ZT has an alluminum, I like the light weight of the SOG. The pocket clip on the SOG is bayonet style (complete hidden) and the ZT leaves quite a bit exposed. SOG = $75 ZT = $120 These are the points Im debating, what are yall's opinions.
  13. best advice I've read here yet, get her a 1911 in .38 super, its not a 9mm and its not a 45. And best yet, its not .40
  14. I have several boxes of .300 Savage and .41 Remington Magnum. I can surely spare 1 of each if you would like them. Let me know an address or if you wanna meet
  15. Found some, Applied Techologies on Alcoa can get about any size you want. Just call ahead because they have to bring them from a wharehouse but can usually get them by the next day. PS just makin monkey fist's. Wife is in Med School so need things to kill time while she is studying constantly
  16. Thanks, yeah I should have been a little more specific, Im looking for like 5/8" or 3/4"
  17. yeah its really too bad about how the market works sometime. We dealt with the same thing, people held on to there timber until they needed the money. It just turns out the market was so far depriciated that it wasnt worth cutting. We told lots of people unless your going to be foreclosed on, just hold out untill the market rebounds otherwise your going to lose your ivestment you've been holding onto all this time.
  18. haha, no we just make sure the loggers are following the law and not ripping off the landwoner. Most landowners have no idea what their timber is worth so when a logger offers $25,000 to cut they think, "wow that alot of money". But in reality that timber could be worth 2, 3, 4 times that amount. Plus we decide what gets cut on a basis of forest health and prolonged income, vs what can be made all at once. You could get $100,000 dollars for 300 acres of timber but may not get to cut there again for 100years, or you can scale back and cut less and be able to cut again in 10 years or less. Thats not to say that all Loggers are crooks because they are most certaily not, but there are a lot that are, and without a timber evaluation you dont know how to tell who is who. BTW Lets not confuse FORESTER with HIPPIE, we are for cutting trees, we just want to have a plan!
  19. I am newly married working in knoxville, my wife is in medical school so I would love to find a job in Johnson City, that is an awful commute . I am a Forester, I have a BS in Forest Resource Managmenet from UT and have been a Forestry Consultant for 6+ years. Let me know if anyone knows of any work in the Tri-City area
  20. Anyone in knoxville know where I can find loose steel ball bearings in various sizes under 1" diameter? I Know I can buy them online but I would rather just go pick some up.
  21. I love my Ruger BH .41 mag, such a cannon. I hate buying ammo for it though!
  22. If that doesn't make sense, your thinking about it too much
  23. holy thread hijack batman, what does this have to do with OP's question? 7+1 in the gun, spare 8rnd mag weakside back pocket... .45
  24. These are amazing, saw one in person while fighting forest fires in Colorado some years back. It wasnt very big maybe 15-20 ft tall, but still very awe inspiring BTW this can happen anywhere there is a wildfire is caused by the extreme heat updraft
  25. Just got the M-TAC holster for my 4" Kimber 1911, and I must say it is very comfortable. I had be using the Galco Summer Comfort which worked good but with a heavy gun it was cumbersome and pulled my pants down at the conection point. So for anyone wondering, if your gonna carry IWB, Id recomend this holster. Just sayin Inside Waistband Holsters - Minotaur Holsters - products new home - Minotaur MTAC Holster
