  1. This sheds a little more light... https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/education/2019/03/21/active-shooter-training-schools-teachers-injured/3234928002/ Seems there were multiple scenarios. The "hide and wait to get shot" was to illustrate that doing nothing gets you dead, while fighting back is a better option. While actually shooting them maybe wasn't the smartest thing, there's nothing like a little pain to drive a point home.
  2. I'd presume that's what GS meant by "all bets are off". If I knew they were shooting, you're darn skippy I'd be kicking, punching, gouging, ... May as well make it realistic for all involved.
  3. You mow 8 acres? Mow an 8-10ft border around it and let the rest grow, it makes good critter habitat. Find a farmer nearby who wants the hay and let them have it (my in-laws do that).
  4. I haven't had shoulder surgery but have spoken with several people who have, as I also have had shoulder issues. Their answers are 6 months to 75% (which means mostly normal just being careful about some things) and 12 months to 100%. Unfortunately, it's a really slow recovery. None regretted it and all said it was better once healed, but it's a long road.
  5. Welcome!
  6. Likely a decoy
  7. Cumberland Mountian state park is nearby.
  8. The rich and famous using their money and position to get benefits not available to the rest of us? Say it ain't so!
  9. Shooting to stop the threat is self defense. Shooting to kill is manslaughter at best. That's the topic of the civil suit.
  10. These are the "extra deadly" bullets that will be brought up in a civil suit. "Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, regular bullets might have stopped little Johnny without killing him, but the defendant chose these super killer bullets because he wanted to kill him."
  11. Does the law address the fee for the background check?
  12. I have one of the cable attached, key locked boxes. After buying it, it occurred to me that anyone cable of breaking into a car will likely have no issue getting into a flimsy sheet metal box. So unless the box is hidden somewhere not obvious, there's really not much point.
  13. My wife is interested.
  14. This. Boil the water, remove from the heat, stir in the sugar, and let it cool. Need to clean the feeder every couple weeks, they can get kinda gross. Don't be discouraged if it takes months for birds to show up. Humming birds like running water. They won't drink or bathe in stagnant water. https://www.thespruce.com/provide-water-for-hummingbirds-386404
  15. There is no "public/BLM land" like that here. Everything "public" is a national forest or park. You either shoot at a designated public range or on private property.
  16. That's was I was thinking.... simulate firing on a side slope.
  17. Welcome!
  18. Says "limited stock" at the Morristown location.
  19. I renewed mine about a month ago, HCP is still a separate paper form and card.
  20. Before the idea of wildlife management came about.
  21. Think carefully about light, power, and air. You can't have too much light. You don't want to have a tangle of power cords and/or air lines across the middle of your bench while you're trying to work on something. My solution was to mount a power strip under the front lip of the bench. My overhead light is also plugged into the power strip so it reminds me to turn it off when I'm done. I don't trust battery chargers left plugged in.
