  1. It probably won't change your premium much, and you may not be able to set it lower, but you don't really need $50,000 in Uninsured/Underinsured Physical Damage. That fixes your car if the other party is at fault and doesn have nay or enough insurance. That's not uncommon here in TN with all our illegals and meth-heads, but it won't take $50K to fix a 2012 Ford Fusion. See if you can drop that to $25,000 and if it affects your premium at all. $50K may be the minimum, but it won't hurt to ask.
  2. Aw man....if that was me, I'd have grabbed my AR-15 with NV ACOG, my backup MP-5 with a silencer, put on my 5.11 gloves, vest and kevlar helmet and swept the house to dispatch the opfor with extreme prejudice. I'd have proceeded to clear the attic, the crawl space, and the backyard shed using tactical moves I learned playing COD Black Ops. It's totally like the real thing. It's what the Army uses to train their people now, just on bigger screens. My buddy's a SEAL Team VI member and he said it's true. I'm glad I didn't get the HBAR on my AR-15. Those are no good for clearing rooms.   J/K.     Seriously though, you did the exact right thing. You had a good position with your family behind you and the cops on the way. No reason to risk getting yourself shot, or having to deal with the aftermath of even a justified SD shooting if you don't absolutely have to.
  3. Med Pay is the only one you may want to reconsider. It will cover your deductible/out-of-pocket portion that your main healthcare plan doesn't cover. It also covers passengers in your car, who aren't necessarily covered by your healthcare insurance.   Also keep an eye on your Comp and Collision coverages. If you like to drive your cars until the wheels fall off, at some point it's not worth carrying comp and collision. Your deductible becomes the whole value of the car.
  4. Tell him to go to a range that has rentals. Try out several and pick the one that (a ) is comfortable to shoot and (b ) he's accurate with.   Unless he has tried a few, he won't know what his best choice is. It may or may not be a Glock.   Personally, I prefer 9mm over .40 for both cost and capacity.
  5. Here's the map   http://www.parrishnet.com/images/Walmarttactical.jpg
  6. Yep. Full with a baby crib.
  7. Twnkies
  8. If Morgan and Duane had been clearing the town for a little while, they could have thinned the herd down a lot. There weren't a whole lot of walkers left in the town. If he intentionally left his wife walking, it's feasible that she'd find Duane.   I thought the same thing with the guns. Morgan has an arsenal up there, so they took one duffel bag? Oh, and Rick one-hands it. Not a whole lot of ammo in there....
  9. What about this?   http://www.autoanything.com/travel-accessories/74A5308A0A0.aspx
  10.   To be fair, I'm not subtracting the value of the training of 10 whole officers. Let's assume that gets more than covered by the value of the SMGs, launchers, rifles, and an undisclosed quantity of misc. parts. If I estimate $250 per Glock and shotty, you're now looking at north of $1,000 per SIG.
  11. Yes they are, but they do require special training in how to handle, transport, plant, and harvest them. How many officers should I put down for this training?   [/SIG Salesman]
  12. From a facebook friend of mine. Names changed to protect the innocent:   <<Mary>> In the same breath, James expressed joy and excitement that "The Walking Dead" is on tonight, then proceeded to to state that he was no longer interested in "Once Upon A Time" because it's too "far-fetched." Uh...what?
  13. I figured on the low-end at $0.40 per round that comes to $120,000 worth of ammo. Add in the cash and you're at $133,500 or about $563 per gun. That's before valuing up the 630 .40-caliber Glocks, 53 12-gauge shotguns, four .22-caliber rifles, 14 submachine guns, six 37mm launchers, various gun parts   Someone got raped on this deal. Call the poli...oh...nevermind.   I'd like to think there's someone in the city's internal audit department that should be looking into this deal.
  14. We're about a year into the apocalypse. Passing him by would be a very realistic thing. Yes, they could use all the good people they can get, but they were on their way out to get supplies. Hardly a good time to pickup a stranger and risk getting murdered and robbed. Maybe they would have helped if they were on the way back. Lock him in a prison cell until you figure out what to do with him. I don't know....     They said on Talking Dead tonight that one of the themes this season is "you can't survive alone". Morgan being alone went crazy, the hispanic family on the bridge wasn't doing too hot on their own, and now backpacker guy.
  15. Tthey don't "make" laws any more than you or I do, but certain groups of people have more sway than others on those who do. In this case, LEO organizations are seen by some lawmakers as SMEs and are listening to them.
  16.   Ah...the old Tony Soprano technique
  17.     The deer carcass guy was the lone prisoner that Rick threw out to the walkers. The character's name was "Andrew". Oscar killed him at the end of "Killer Within" down in the generator room. The one watching from the woods was also Andrew, since that camera shot stopped being used after they killed him and it was associated with the one who left the deer carcass. It was discussed in one of The Talking Dead aftershows, IIRC. If there was a tattoo insconsistency, it was just a goof, not a plot line.   The sniper in the watchtower is dead. Headshot. They showed it in slow-mo on The Talking Dead during their "In Memoriam" bit.   The zombie-wagon was the Gov's.   3.5 is slow....This last epipsode did nothing much to move the story along.       I'm still trying to figure out their transportation choices. It's the end of the world and the best things they can find are a 1996 Dodge Ram, a Hyundai Tucson, and Dale's old broke-down POS Winnebago? Looks like it finally bites them in the next episode. Tallahassee had the right idea....
  18.   This. Gun-people know "Magpul". Non-gun-people know "Beretta". SNOWBAAAAAAAALLLLL!
  19. It just goes to show that CTD is still trying to screw us. They're dead to me. SGAmmo is awesome. Thanks for the notice of in-stock.
  20. Yep. When you want to read a thread, right click it an choose "open in new tab". It will create a new tab for that thread, leaving your original tab on the "new content" list right where you left it.
  21. Yep. And I just learned about clicking the dot/star beside each topic. It takes you directly to the first unread post. Stars mean its a thread you have commented on.
  22.   Very true. I was buddies with a sergeant at the alarm shop at Bitburg AFB in Germany. A few years earlier, that crew was sent off to a cruise missle site to strip it down before turning it over to the German gov't as part of an arms reduction. They had a retina scanner from that place that had zero paperwork. Nobody knew they had it. Nobody knew where it was supposed to go. Any of them were unofficially welcome to it, but what are you going to do with something like that? Eventually someone will ask why you have a multi-million dollar retina scanner protecting your man-cave. When Bitburg closed, I assume it went to the Spangdahlem alarm shop...one more step removed from any paper trail and one step closer to a black market sale, I guess.
  23. Got three. One for each vehicle and one for the bag.   Thanks for the tip!
  24. You're reading the letter of the law correctly. By the letter of the law, yes you can be arrested for being armed and then have to present your HCP to the judge to get out of it.   In "reality" that's not going to happen for a whole host of reasons, not least of which is that no cop wants to have to explain to his captain or the judge why he's wasting everyone's time for no reason.   As I understand it, the nuance of TN making an HCP a "defense" to an unlawful act is that it opens up options for Law Enforcement to do things legally such as confiscate the weapon during a stop. You're breaking the law by having the loaded gun, so they can take it from you while they check out your "defense" in the form of an HCP. Basically, they get to treat you like a criminal until they have solid proof that you aren't, because by the letter of the law, you are a criminal by being armed.   If the law against being armed was worded to be null and void for HCP holders rather than just a defense to that law, then law enforcement probably couldn't legally do that since you wouldn't actually be breaking any laws. They could still stop you and ask for your permit if they saw the gun, but could not take it during the stop.   Again, that's just as I understand it, but the reality is that with an HCP you're good to go as long as you're not in a prohibited place.   As OS said, read up on 39-17-13xx.
  25. I told you Gov. Perry would try to land Magpul.
