I started marking bills in the Fall of 2007. So far I have marked 248 bills and have had 29 bills hit with a total of 32 hits (some bills get more than one hit). So about a 10% success rate for me. I used to mark them more regularly, now, not so much. I try to mark all my cash before traveling. That way I don't end up with matches 30 miles away. It's kind of a let down to see an email that I got a hit, then to find out it was at a gas station in Hendersonville.

Heat is good. Except for the magical Hollywood 20 round revolvers, I put the final battle in Open Range in my top 5 favorites.

Correct on the Bill of Sale. It's not necessary from a legal perspective as far as the transfer of ownership goes. But it shows that the firearm changed hands and on what date. Checking a DL isn't just the age and state, it also shows that the person is who they say they are. Does the name/address they gave you on the Bill of Sale match the DL? If not, something's not right. Some sellers will require an HCP for an FTF sale. It serves the same purpose as a DL, and it also tells the seller that the buyer isn't a felon or otherwise prohibited from owership (at least they weren't when the HCP was issued). An HCP is about as close to going to a shop and having an FFL do the background check as you can get without actually going to the FFL.

Am I the only one with "Bad Bad Leroy Brown" stuck in his head?

Nah, we can't have that. That would make sense. We can't have logic getting in the way of gun laws.

The Clay Target complex on Briley is great for clays, but they don't have a paper target range. Charlie allows them at CHMR. He just asks that you not shoot the OSB/Plywood. He'll setup cardboard stands for shottys. Call ahead and make sure he's got some on hand and that an area is available that he'll allow them.

I talked to Charlie about this the last time I was down at CHMR. I have a shotty I need to pattern for turkeys. He said no problem. Just call ahead and make sure the upper range isn't in use. That's the small one up by his house. If it's available, then he'll setup some cardboard to shoot at. He just asked that shottys not be used on the OSB/Plywood since it's more expensive and the shot tears it up pretty quick.

I stand by my disclaimer. Thanks guys. This continues to reinforce my belief that I'd be really bad at crime. -

This may be a stupid question, but isn't evidence used to connect a person with a crime? So the OP tells the responding officer "I shot that dude in my living room when he broke in on me while I was eating popcorn and watching some really interesting threads on TGO. Are you a TGO member? No? You should join. It's great." What need is there for evidence to connect the OP to the shooting? There's a dead body and a confession. I mean, is CSI going to show up next and dust the OP's house to find his fingerprints to place him at the scene? He just confessed to the shooting. I fully understand that in the real world, the gun may or may not be confiscated. I'm just curious as to why it would be needed as "evidence" in a case like this? -
True, but I keep other stuff in my safe too. Family photos, important documents, digital media, and other stuff like that that's not covered under insurance and is a pain to replace if it's even possible to do so.

Nashville Sporting Arms has that angle covered. They're in a small strip that has a liquor store. NSA is on the left end. Google Maps "Women like a man that drinks and shoots firearms" -Unknown Hinson-

FYI - Lowe's had a deal on a couple of Centurions this weekend. I think the sale goes through Sunday.
-
Because nobody cares what the finish looks like when you're using it to knock off a Stop-N-Rob. Besides, it will just get messed up when you throw it in the river afterwards anyway.

Lowes is the best. Their sale started on-line on Wednesday at 11:00pm our time. I picked out what I wanted (all items from the sales ad were on line), chose in-store pickup and paid online, then showed up late this morning with my order number. 5 minutes later I'm headed to the car with a pre-loaded cart of my stuff.

A TWRA agent stopped by the hunter Ed class I attended a month or so ago. He said one problem they're having with hogs is that people were still importing them for hunting. He said that played into the decision too.

I have an M&P MOE (black) and I'm very happy with it. My first AR and so far it likes the cheap stuff just fine. It's more accurate than I am. I tossed on a Primary Arms M3 red dot and a grip-pod and called it done. With their cantilevered mount for the M3 there's still room for their 5x magnifier and the MBUS rear site.
