My dad has one. We'll never sell it because it's so bad it's great.

The 5-0 Radio app that I linked to above in the Apple store is free. I know there are some free ones for Android too.

+1 to the 5-0 Radio app. The LAPD Code3/Hot Shots channel can be interesting late at night. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/5-0-radio-pro-police-scanner/id341776037?mt=8 There are some for Android too. Search for police scanner in the Google store.

Ft. Nashboro is still there.

After the Capitol tour, go across the street to Legislative Plaza. The entrance to the TN State War Museum is in the SW corner. It's small, but well done and has some nice pieces including a few MoH medals. It's free, as is the TN State Museum in the same building as TPAC across 6th Ave from Legislative Plaza. On the SW corner of 6th and Union is The Hermitage Hotel. When you enter, take the stairs down to the right. Go down the hallway and hang a left to the men's room. It's the coolest men's room I've ever seen. Al Capone used to hide out in there when the feds came looking for him. There's an alcove behind the mirror to the left of the shoe shine stand. The mirror used to move, but they attached it permanently during the big remodel a few years ago. You could go through the Arcade on your way down the hill to Broadway. Entrances are on 4th and 5th between Union and Church. The one on 5th is next to the Walgreen's. Not a whole lot in there these days, but the Peanut Shop is worth stopping at and getting a big bag of peanuts to take home. Their old fashioned candy is great too including malted milk balls the size of pool balls. A backstage tour at the Ryman, maybe?

+1 to the pottery thing. Brushfire is in Green Hills. It's a good one. -
Sig Sauer Press Release on the ATF Forearm Brace Ruling
monkeylizard replied to JimmyMac483's topic in Handguns
Oh Shoot posted that link in the ongoing discussion. Post #86. http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/83504-new-twist-in-the-sig-brace-debate/?p=1233419 -
My TGO-15 lower has been in the safe until last month when I finally put the LPK in it. I built it alongside a PSA lower and it was like a Ferrari next to a Trabant. I didn't realize just how nice the CMT lower was until then. I need an AR-10 like my wife needs another purse, so I'm in when this gets put together. :D

Oopsie ... Smokeless Instead of Black Powder
monkeylizard replied to Oh Shoot's topic in Curio, Relics and Black Powder
It doesn't look much worse that some of the SKS rifles I've seen over at Classic. :popcorn: -
If Glock can't make a single-stack 9mm any better than they can make a "pocket" .380, I'll pass. That G42 is larger and heavier than the LCP or P3AT with no additional rounds. I invision the same thing from a Glock SS 9mm when compared to the Kahr or Shield.

I'm not ashamed to say that I needed a minute myself. The closing montage of actual footage was a powerful and appropriate tribute. :usa: :usa: :usa: :usa: :usa: :usa: :usa: :usa: :usa: :usa:

NRA 2015 Annual Meetings and Exhibits, Nashville TN
monkeylizard replied to TGO David's topic in General Chat
If anyone needs the URL: http://www.nraam.org/ Click the big blue Pre-Register button on the right. Registration will get you access to the exhibit hall. There are other events as well which require tickets (and $). You can see those from the "Special Events" option in the black menu bar on the page I linked. -
NRA 2015 Annual Meetings and Exhibits, Nashville TN
monkeylizard replied to TGO David's topic in General Chat
I'm going. Just pre-registered. I too would like to hear about any efforts they have in the TN state legislature to lift carry restrictions. -
We're still talking about guns, right? :D

Isn't "Best place in Rutherford Co." kind of like like saying "Prettiest girl still in the bar at 3am?"

Yuppies who vote. Maybe, just maybe these new shooters will start to think critically about firearms. Maybe, just maybe they'll start to question the anti-gun crap that so many are being force fed from birth. Maybe, just maybe, that will mean they'll think twice about pushing the Vote button for a gun grabber when they're the ones who would lose their hobby. Anything that gets more people shooting is a win for the sport and for the politics. It provides an avenue to educate people about firearms whose only other source of information is Hollywood and Bloomberg. Being overt about the politics isn't always the best way. You need to get people to come around to it on their own, and you do that by making it accessible in an environment that's not confusing, intimidating, and foreign to anything they've ever done before.

Some fuel for the Costa haters... Japanese Airsoft show
monkeylizard replied to TGO David's topic in Training Discussions
That update sucks! He says there were half-naked women on stage whipping each other and he doesn't have the common decency to share the pics? What a tool.
