he could also drive to Outdoor Junction in cookeville, exit 288, thats about 30 miles from the Peavine exit. They have a brand new indoor range and a friendly staff. I dont know of any IN crossville but I'm sure there are some. He could go buy Dave's Pawn and Gun and ask those guys, its on North Main St, beside Sonic, they are pretty helpfull.

if its a carry gun, then I would be proactive in checking and keeping up with round count on the spring. if its not a self defense issue, just wait till you get about 2000 or it fails to return to battery. Id still stick with the Wolff Springs
-
yeah man, that spring needs replaced. Once it stops returning to battery the first thing to check is the recoil spring. I have an eclipse pro, had the same problem, and fixed it the same way! Id say 2000 rds is about the life of a spring. Id buy Wolff springs to replace it with. Id say 800 is a little low to be replacing the spring.

Obama Leaves Out White Americans

you're assuming someone is checking for voter cards. Hell they're probably paying illegals to vote -
Obama Leaves Out White Americans
Lumber_Jack replied to dubya3488's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
He did that on purpose. See the people who were "lacking representative votes" were, youngpeople, african americans, latinos, and women. He is trying to conjure up the same votes that got him elected to keep his congressional majority. If more middle-aged white people voted he couldnt guarantee his minority(racial) bias to gain democratic votes. His main points in campaining were that not enough minorties vote thats why a Republican like Bush had been in office for 8 yrs. This was basically a vote for Dems in november so I can keep ruining this country but remember these are just my opinions -
I've heard others talking about there "not being enough time". How does this process work. Is there a deadline for the vote. Sorry for the ignorance of our legeslative process

Make sure your belt is snug as well. before carrying, and still now while not carrying , I have a tendency to wear my belt a notch lose. Just something I developed and keeps my pants from falling off but not secure in place. While carrying I secrue the belt nice and snug, this was uncomfortable at first but just because I was used to wearing my pants loose. Just remember if your pants move your holster will move! Also a quick sharp upward draw will help prevent the holster from following the gun. Just enough to free the gun then smooth with the follow thru. Just my two cents

Im overseeing the thinning opererations on hundreds of acres of timber today. I breath a fresh breath with every tree that hits the ground. So refreshing!

Eric will most likely be headed for Kansas City unless something crazy happens. I am more impressed with Bradford after seeing the interview with John Gruden on ESPN. If you havent seen Gruden interviewing draft picks its pretty good.

I agree with Jcochran88, shoot the longest shell it can hold, and get a turkey specific load in 5 or 6 shot. If your gun in chambered for 2 3/4" then just get those. Lets face it all the equipment in the world cant kill a turkey without the hunter doing the work. So if you have a 20 gauge just know your limits. How close does the bird have to be to kill and not wound. Here's what I'd do. Go buy some shells, get a cardboard target(or turkey silhouette) . Shoot from 10, 20, 30, 40 yds. See how the pellets cover your aiming point. Once you dont have a good coverage over a spot the size of a turkeys head, thats your distance limit. You can kill a turkey with a .410 but he'd just have to be close. And dont worry shooting isnt the hard part, its getting the bird to come in to begin with. Good Luck

+1 lets make no assumtions here, the HCP test is not a training course on how to shoot. If you use a laser and qualifiy I see no problem, I think its worse to use a weapon you wont carry than to use a laser on one that you will. Plus Im no expert but Im surely no novice, but I still was nervous during the qualification, so I say take the class where she can use the laser if she is nervous, it sure makes things easier
-
well I applied on March 10th, printed on 13th and mine was in the mail box today April 9, so Id say it wont be long. Thats 30days counting weekends, 22 buisness days. Its pretty good now that all the rush has died down.
-
Qualified on March 6, applied on March 10, fingerprint March 13, HCP in mail today April 9th. Thats exactly 30 days counting weekends from application to permit in hand. Thats pretty good if you ask me, especially since its really 22 buisness days. Seems they have gotten there ducks back in a row in Nashville
-
I dont see why not, there sure isnt a rule from the state saying you cant use them. Maybe a certain school offering the class may say something, but I doubt it. When I qualified the guy next to me used a .22 revolver with laser grips!

I took my class yesterday, and our instructor asked for more experienced shooters go in the first group. So I and 8 others volunteered. One guy in my group did not qualify. I heard the instructor say "theres just not enough on target". I looked and there were very few holes, and our instructor only counted shots on or inside the 7 ring. Guy was older but not over 65, I am not sure what his prob was. He was shooting a Kahr 9mm. I felt bad for him, but its a simple test, I dont think he has to take the whole class again but just the shooting part. Its always a good idea to practice at least once before qualifying. Im experienced and still shot 50rnds on friday to freshen up.

I often carry my Ruger Blackhawk .41 magnum 6" barrel. I have yet to shoot a deer with it, but its only a matter of time

Congrats on the weight loss JG; I will offer a tip or two, you can try if you want. 1) Substitue Canadian Bacon at breakfast, still has lots of protien, calories, but less fat 2) add a snack between breakfast and lunch. Your body will shift from fat burning to fat storing if not fed in that 5hr window. so say 7am bkfast - 10am snack - 12 lunch. a snack being 200 cals of whole grain bread & peanut butter, cheese stick, etc. Now this may push your daily cal intake higher but you would be better serverd cutting a few later in the day. this may sound odd but the book "The Abs Diet" is truely a great guide to lifstyle change in wieght loss. Even if your goal is not a washboard stomach its really a good 'make sense' kind of book. You should check it out. Again congrats on the great work!!

1989 Ford Crown Victoria. It was the summer after my sophomore year of Colloge, I was home for the summer and my dad bought the car so I could get a job. it had the 351 5.0 v-8, it was a boat but it sure would bawl the tires. Me and my buddies would roll 6 deep in that thing!

No that Leroy is giving bad advice, but I would send it back to sig first. If they see you have had "work" done of any kind they may not fix it for you. Thats assuming Predator Customs fixes the feed ramp and you still have FTF or FTE

I agree, if you a sure whitetail deer is your only game for the high powered rifle I would consider.270 in a decent bolt action, Rem 700 or similar. If you think you might hunt elk someday I would go with 30-06. I know lots of people who hunt with 7mm mag, .300win mag, and these do fine but can make a mess especially on the exit hole, if your not shooting 200yds. Others will disagree but I hunt with a savage 99e lever actions. It shoots .300savage which is pretty similar to a .270 but less powder and of course bigger bullet.

Now there is a loaded TRP that sells for $1300 and that comes with checkered front strap, beveled extended mag well and some other extras, just making sure we're comparing apples to apples. your best bet may be online, sorry Im in knoxville so I cant help much with local stores
