I'd even be giving any surviving pinko leftists a bye by then. Probably. ;)

Come on now, let's not go too far with our tolerance.-

May I interject here?
"Windage" and "elevation" are two different things. "Kentucky Windage", as far as I know, refers to holding off the target to the left or right (without adjusting the sights) to adjust for wind.
I've never heard the term "Kentucky Elevation", but I imagine if it were a thing, it would be holding over or under to adjust for distance. -
As an interesting aside, those Nato cans are based on a German design and they were much sought after by British troops in the war as their cans were prone to damage and hard to carry. It actually got to where the Germans would leave behind booby trapped cans.
Hence the term "Jerry" can.
They may have been on the wrong side in that war, but they know how to make stuff. -
Now that you say that, we have had this discussion before, haven't we?
:lol: Yeah, two or three years ago.
Woke up with it not hurting except for a minor irritation thankfully. Well if I can keep from touching it with my tongue lol.
I'm still going to have it checked Monday.That's good. You got a brief respite. I would get it fixed ASAP.
Come to think of it, I have an uncle that pulled several of my baby teeth. I'm sure he'd be happy to pull yours for a fair price.
No, he isn't a dentist. :devil:

For years, I carried a Ruger Blackhawk .41 Mag around the farm. Occasionally I'd carry IWB concealed.
It's not my first choice for self-defense. But I'd carry it over a .22 or .25. Single actions actually ride IWB pretty well for me. -
Looking forward to more info. I like light barrels if they hold zero.

What part? Steer Creek here, it has been eighteen years or so since I left.
Between Tellico and Ballplay, but I went to school in town. I think I was a few years ahead of you.
I never really left. Circumstances made me sleep in Knox most of the time, but I get back as often as possible. Hopefully be back full time soon. -
Tooth pain is the most excruciating pain I've ever experienced. There's no way I'd go all weekend with that. Maybe go to a clinic and get some painkillers to survive on. The only time I've ever taken hard-core pain meds was for tooth pain.
Can't help with the dentist. I grew up in Tellico Plains. We always went to Athens or Maryville to the dentist. I have bartered guns for service with the dentist I see now, but I don't know if he'd do the same for anyone. I knew him before he was my dentist.
Best luck. -
All them sissy mary hippies cant take cold weather. Their feet freeze in their birkenstocks and they lose the will to protest.
Not to mention the ones whose britches are around their knees. Their arses will freeze off. -
Wonder if that's what I heard about 5:45 this morning? My first thought was something just landed on my roof, but there's nothing above my house but air. I walked around outside and didn't see anything. I'll check in the attic when I get home this evening.
That's interesting. I kept hearing what I thought were small limbs falling on the deck about the same time.
I need to go investigate. -
As a friend of mine likes to say, "if ya lub it, lube it. "

I like it. He didn't give a price for the BEV Block. Or did I miss it?
-
Well they know now what Mel Gibson was talking about in "The Patriot".
Dog is a fine meal. Just ask BO.
However, I wouldn't eat without water. Just dehydrate quicker. -
Why not a miniskirt? I see a guy walking up and down Kingston Pike all the time wearing one.
Wintertime? No problem. Add black leggings. -
I will add this. T years as a Marine and we started on A2's in boot camp then got issued A4's in the fleet. While the 16" collapsible stocked carbines are all the rage in the civy world and with all other branches, the Marine Corps is big on tradtion. I loved my A4. Yeah it makes vehicle and helicopter stuff more of a pain in the boot, but when it comes time to accurately put lead down range out to 500 yards, I still feel most comfortable with a full stocked 20" AR instead of a 16" carbine. So enjoy yourself.
I like a compromise. I'm leaning toward 18" barrels now. 16 is just too short in my opinion. Barks too loudly, loses too much velocity. But I have both 16 and 20 inch rifles. So my next one will be 18".

I've never used one of their uppers, but I've made a couple orders from their site. No problems.
They also used to set up at Knoxville gun shows. That's been several years. Owned by a couple of ladies, I believe. Very nice people in my opinion.-

I remember hearing the same thing from another police chief in a large urban area (Detroit maybe?).
My interpretation? "We need more money. You better give it to us or you're on your own. ". It's a scare tactic. Evidenced by the statement from the woman at the end who doesn't own a gun.-

Pancake Pantry! :) It's cash only, so be ready for that.
Honestly though.... I've never had anything in that area I thought was especially good for the money. The reasonably good local places tend to be way over-priced and way too "touristy" for me. The chain restaurants are the same as every other one with 20% higher prices. They all get their food off the same Cisco or US Foods trucks anyway. Given the option, I'd go to Cracker Barrel. YMMV.
All true. Except for the Cracker Barrel.
Like R1100R mentioned, Best Italian in Cattleburg is pretty good. Of course it's been over a decade since I was there.

Greenbrier Restaurant. One of the only reasons to go to Gatlinburg. Actually if you just want a good Gatlinburg experience nothing fits that place quite like a Taco Bell.
:rofl:

Ouch.
Welding it would be my first choice, and I know a couple local welders who could do it. It might need to be re-heat treated after welding to ensure strength. That likely would require stripping the finish. I'll have to look up the temp for the heat treatment to see if that would kill the finish.
There are structural epoxies available that work well with aluminum and applying them is pretty simple. We do it all the time at work (I fix jet engine parts for a living). You'd need to blast the area to remove the finish so the epoxy will stick. Then you basically just mix the stuff, glob it in there, cure it (typically heat cure), and then machine it back to final dimensions.
That said, fixing it will cost more than just replacing it. But since is a special one, you might not have a choice.
Talk to Mike at Lawenforcementsalestn here... He's got the machine capability to do the work properly and he's in Oak Ridge. Getting another lower and having him re-do the engraving and the machine work might be the best option. Or if you just want to fix it, that's fine too.
Mike could definitely fix it. But he may have to serialize it and add it to his records.
I have used epoxy to fix misdrilled pin holes before. It held up fine.
Were it me, I wouldn't have an issue with it. But I probably wouldn't use it to defend my life, either. -
Looking for a cheap reliable blaster? Try to find a used Taurus PT 92 or 99. Or a Stoeger Cougar.

Macon originally. Lived in Henry county and Statesboro for a while.
Just curious. Have some friends in Dawson County.
Welcome to Knox.
Macon always reminds me of the old story about the guy who had an airline ticket to Maconga.
Maconga? The airline employee had no idea where that was. So he shows her his ticket.
MACON GA
So, as far as I'm concerned, Macon, Georgia doesn't exist.
It's Maconga.

Before that, I would have to sign it as the almighty...
Really? 10 laws?

Meh. I'm gonna keep watching. I don't usually like documentaries, but this one is pretty good

I wonder if Dolomite ever tested the Surplus Pistol Powder that David is, or was, selling with the .300 BLK. He may still have some.
