Well done. It does look stock. I'd bet anyone seeing the mags would think those are some kind of handles. :up:

Yeah....and you're likely to need it too.

Trading pistols with active army stationed in Kingsport
monkeylizard replied to Krull's topic in General Chat
You could call the Knoxville field office of F-Troop and ask what they think. http://www.atf.gov/field/nashville/fo-tennessee.html -
I think there's a no-fly zone in effect right now over the area. I presumed it was to A keep news choppers away and B clear the skies for surveillance drones. Just because we haven't heard about them doesn't mean they aren't there.

Facebook shutting down firearms related pages
monkeylizard replied to TripleDigitRide's topic in General Chat
Some small businesses use it exclusively. I've gone looking for some restaurant sites only to find them only on Facebook. -
I will never go to Prince Hot Chicken Shack (it's not Prince's). Their health scores usually suck and a recent post on the TripAdvisor travel forum (not the reviews...more like a regular forum) for Nashville had a visitor report that she was there when a fight broke out in front. a few minutes later one of the participants comes in waving a handgun around looking for the other dude. What a great way to showcase our city.... :( I'll stick to Hattie B's....I'll have to try Bishop's. For all you hot chicken lovers out there, there's a hot chicken festival in East Park on July 4th. http://mchcf.blogspot.com/

2 in one day. It must be your birthday or something! :up: You have about 87 minutes to make it a single-day hat trick.

And stopping at stop signs... Truth is though, some drivers make the backup worse than it needs to be. Some jackhole in a tiny car waits until there's nothing in the oncoming lane before moving all the way over and passing the bike rider. Dude! The bike is on the shoulder and you're in a subcompact! Hug the center line and pass the bike already and let's get this moving!

Sabre's story can be found here: http://nashvillepost.com/news/2011/2/8/nashville_defense_contractor_and_corporate_officers_indicted It was a nice mix of employees helping themselves to whatever they wanted and management smuggling regulated goods into and out of the country. The assets were purchased by Manroy USA http://www.manroy-usa.com/index.php AFAIK, they only do defense contracts, no civilian stuff, and I don't think they kept the Nashville plant. I thought they bought the equipment and moved it out, but I could be mistaken on that. There's a "Contact Us" link on their page if MacGyver or whoever is heading this thing up wants to try to contact them and ask.

You're presumed to be at fault, but the evidence can (and sometimes does) say otherwise.

I was wondering how long that might take. Now that you mention NYCRU, it all makes sense.

You can read the TN laws here: http://www.lexisnexis.com/hottopics/tncode/ The ones pertaining to firearms can be found under 39-17-13xx Don't stop reading when you think you've found one that says what you want to do is OK. Keep going and you may find one that says it's not under other circumstances which may or may not also apply to any given situation. Our gun laws are anything but clear. Add to this that we have some AG opinions that would seem to contradict the letter of the law while having no actual cases to reference as a real-world example.

Not quite. 39-17-1307 makes it illegal to carry a firearm and 39-17-1308 lists the defenses to 1307. Lawful hunting is one of those, but there are several others. 1308(a )(1 ) says it's OK if the rifle, shotgun, or handgun is unloaded, not concealed, and no ammo is in the immediate vicinity. So by the law, as long as it's unloaded and you have no ammo on you, you're within the letter of the law*. At the very least you're going to get hassled about it if spotted. At the worst you get a free ride, lawyer fees, firearms confiscated, and have to fight to get a suspended HCP back. If it's really for the purpose you mentioned, take Smith's advice and add in the equivalent weight in some other form. ISTM that you'd have to add weight of some kind to take the place of the ammo anyway, so just do that for the rifle too. Some water bottles should do nicely. *I am not a lawyer and there may very well be some other part of the TCA that makes it a no-no that I'm not thinking of, or some other provision that a creative officer and DA could apply. Parks, for example, have their own special laws that 1308 won't apply as a defense to.

It needs a bigger TV.

There are also funny cat videos on the Internet.

Count me in too for one.

Any person of a unlawful sale or gift of firearm in tn.?
monkeylizard replied to ted's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
If the proposed change is as it's written above, it does say the unlawful sale, gift or loan to a minor or intoxicated person. So no, it wouldn't apply to just anyone you might give, sell or loan a firearm to. Intoxicated person is an easy one. Minor is the hard one. 39-17-1319 says under 18 can not possess a handgun and lists out a littany of exceptions. If you sold, gifted or loaned a handgun to a minor and they didn't meet those exceptions, I suppose this new wording would apply, because that would be an unlawful transfer. That only deals with handguns, not long guns. The only way I know if for a loan, sale, or gift of a long gun to a minor to be unlawful is if the minor is otherwise prohibited from possession, such as being a convicted felon. I suppose there are some others (like selling/gifting a Class-3 item). I'm confused that it says these ammend 39-17-13-40 and 49. There is no 39-17-13-40 or 49. Are 40 and 49 new proposals and these are amendments to them? This sounds more like an extension of 39-17-13-03 and makes the giver/seller/loaner liable for commited crimes in addition to the 39-17-13-03 misdemeanor. -
State suspends gun carry permit for James Yeager
monkeylizard replied to ironsniper1's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
He was the one featured on Doomsday Preppers. He went to see a cardiologist for chest pains*. That Dr. had him sent to the psych-ward for reasons that I don't know. He was then deemed mentally incompetent and had all of his firearms seized and his HCP revoked. There doesn't seem to be anything on these here Interwebz from his accusers, what with HIPAA making that more or less impossible. I don't know one way or the other if he's mentally competent and got screwed by a bed-wetting doctor who doesn't understand prepping, or if he's a class-A loon and the doctor and state acted appropriately. We'll probably never know the truth. *That, boys & girls, is why you NEVER talk about fight club -
It makes me wonder what that is directly behind the monitor.

That's optimistic.
