I was thinking about going back for the Colt DS. That sucks. Did they still have the Mini14 with the factory folding stock?

^GT Distributors. It's in Rossville, GA but they can transfer that day to TN

Just wait, I was in a local shop that had so many DA revolvers that were trade ins I was about to go crazy they seamed like such deals. They had a Colt Det special that seamed like a steal for $300. So many K frames I couldn't even look at them all. There'll be more come around.

Police can still be told to leave with our firearm and we have to. We just can't be prosecuted for carrying past a sign until after we have been told to leave. I don't know any LEO's that open carry off duty so it doesn't matter.

The $300 sounds a little low for a 65 unless it's a real rough piece.

Oh and you should be mulching not baging. I only recommend baging before you seed in the fall if there's heavy leaves or during summer brown patch if a fungicide has not been applied.

Do not hire one of the chain lawn care companies, they only want your money. Find a local company. You can pay them to do it for what you spend in products alone. If you put down a preM before March 25th you most likely don't have crabgrass but instead dalisgrass or maybe rough stalk blue grass. The rough stalk blue is a cool weather perennial and most likely came from cheap bird feed. The dalisgrass would have to be dug out. This is a Fescue lawn right? Describe this grassy weed some more for me.

The PT1911 is supposed to be a great firearm, I don't know that I've ever even read of a problem with one of them. The polymers do seam to be what make the crap list frequently. I don't have a problem with Taurus but for Heavens sake please test it thoroughly before depending on it.

Do you reall think you wil end up in such a perfect played out scenario? In less you hit a innocent bystander your good in that situation but think of George Zimmerman. People already think he is a vigilant, if it came out that he loaded up the bullet that killed Travone would it seam like maybe he was living for the moment to kill someone. I shoot my 38spl reloads better than any of the factory loads I've ver come across but it's not worth it for taking a chance.

I've owned two Taurus autos and one was perfect and one was not. I sold the less than perfect one back to the shop I bought it from for $50 less than what I paid for it. My good one actually would have magazine FTF troubles due to weak magazines after about a year but beretta springs fixed that. Both of these were the 24/7 platforms. They say the PT92 is a great firearm. My father in laws judge has had a few weak primer strikes but only with me(I gave no reason why).

If a HCP is all you have saying you can carry then you must follow the same rules. Other than LEO very few can carry everywhere(well almost everywhere). EG-Some judges will have credentials to carry like LEO.

Well, your not going to get charged because you had reloads in your firearm, but you better believe a juror will hear that you loaded up your own hot, deadly ammo. If I ever have to use deadly force for whatever reason I want to make every single juror believe I am just like them. This is what defense attorneys try to translate to the jury. What percentage of jurors reload? What percentage of them have bought ammo at Walmart?

If you are on trial, the last thing you want to do is look like a "Gun Nut" to a jury. I don't want it to be brought up that I loaded up some of my own recipe of man killers. I've had a defense attorney say if he can argue the defendant used the same gun, caliber, and ammo the police use to protect citizens, it carries a lot of weight.

^That is a valid point but if a would be assailant is anything like a cop, a firearm stands out like it has spot lights on it. I go back and forth all the time on wether or not looking like a cop is an advantage or disadvantage.

I knew a guy that worked at a pawn shop(because he needed a job) and had all 4 people that tried to buy handguns denied in one day. One of the people had just reined a HCP days before. They never figured out why it happened. He had done dozens of checks before this happened over a couple of months.

Thanks, Scott seams really excited. I couldn't thank of a more deserving guy than him(or at least one with a Sig220).

How are the Banana grips on that 640 btw? I have a set Pacmyar Compacs that I often put on but like the bananas because there thinner,

I have a cousin that does in East Ridge, really cool guy and I owe him some favors.

I have been Voluntereed a lot of HCP's in the last few weeks, there growing at a fast rate. I never even talk about it any further and can't remember a time that I've even ticketed a HCP holder.

^Most of the Man with a gun calls come in from financial institutions, doctors offices, or liquor stores. You know most of the places people think you can't carry a gun into anyway. Movie theaters kind of get a lot of MWG calls and so do some of the restaurants that still think if they serve alcohol you can't carry there. I've found out nurses are the worst to freak out about a man with a gun.

Ive probably only asked about 10 or less and found 2 that didn't have one. One guy thought if he was open carrying he didn't need one.(this happens a lot) The other guy had a empty gun so it wasn't too relevant. I don't go around asking the people I see, I do when I'm called to a MWG or they happen to be fitting a description or something.

I have been a LEO for 6 plus yrs. Exactly, someone denying to display a HCP or other credentials to carry is in violation of the law. AKA a criminal. I don't go around asking to see everyone's permit but if I see a particular someone I have a question about I will ask if I'm in my jurisdictional right.

I think dudes story was BS, I can't think of a single LEO that would not have drew down on him and hooked him up.

I would have slapped the cuffs on you. You could have had your HCP revoked for that action as you were in fact violating the law. You do have to show yours HCP any and everytime a LEO ask for it. You just don't have to volunteer the information. BTW, I have recently found out any "elected" magistrate can revoke a HCP in this state. I saw it happen on Tuesday.

The testing of the 5.7 round I've been involved in doesn't prove that it will be a serious over penetrator. After initial impact it starts to tumble.
