Handgun given as gift across state lines?
monkeylizard replied to Patton's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Assuming a state-to-state transfer is being done the legal way via an FFL and all parties involved are allowed to have the firearm, does the transferor have to ship it to the tansferee's FFL, or can the whole thing be done in person at the recipient's FFL? -
"War Remains: Thomas Adams Calvert was coming home."
monkeylizard replied to LagerHead's topic in General Chat
Timely too. Ralph Bristol from Nashville's 99.7 WTN is taking a bunch of WW2 vets to D.C. today as part of an Honor Flight to let them see the WW2 Memorial on the National Mall. -
This show has tanked fast. 1) So there just happened to be a fishing area with a nearly rebuilt house and nobody around? 2) The marauders' camp....whose idea was it to go there? Was it really Tick and Jim, or were they instructed to go there by the producers? Erm...the "colonists" know it's a show. Why would they think the marauders have a camp? I'd assume they're paid actors who go off to a green room after a raid, not off to a shanty town in the bayou. 3) What's it been, 3 weeks now since they built anything useful for survival? They've been working on that air boat system for at least that long and it still isn't working.

Thanks, I'll be here all week. Tell your friends and be sure to tip your waitress.

History channel had a great show on about snipers. The Canadian former record holder guy was being interviewed (he was the record holder at the time of the show's production). Apparently his team was out of ammo, so they had resupplied from an American unit. Same caliber, but the US ammo had a hotter load, giving him extra range at the high altitude. I forget the specifics of the rounds. .50 I think. He said he didn't know if he'd have made the shot with his standard issued ammo.

Right on, strel. Since the government knows where the ex-con felons live in many cases and they don't have ANY consitutional rights, we'll bypass the 3rd ammendment on them and quarter troops in their homes. That should save us some money by shrinking military base housing. And while they're there, we may as well deputize the troops so they can search through the felon's place for whatever. No warrant needed since the 4th ammendment no longer applies. And if they kick up a fuss, we'll convict them on the same charge they got convicted on the first time, seeing as how the 5th ammendment doesn't protect them from double jeopardy. The second trial will be faster than the first since they no longer have a guarantee of a jury trial as stated in the 6th and 7th. Suspending the 8th will let the judge set bail at twenty trillion dollars, while the felon basically becomes the government's property when the 9th and 10th no longer apply. The felon can't peacably assemble to protest any of this, or go to church to talk to the pastor, or even pray to a higher power for help because the 1st is gone too.

My P-22 FTF'd a lot with the Federal 550 bulk pack from Wally World when I first got it. I switched to CCI MiniMags and it's been perfect. I need to try the bulk stuff again. IIRC, the P-22 Bible suggests that as the main spring gets loosened up from use, it will become more forgiving of lower powered rounds. With the P-22, inconsistency from one gun to the next seems to be pretty common based on what I've read across several forums. One will take anything you give it while another needs some caviar, a limo ride, and mood music to make it work.

181 and 182 here. +1 to Fallguy and LagerHead. Posting pretty much guarantees I'll go elsewhere. But I don't need an affirmative green sticker to spend, just the absence of a red one.
-
I thought the "Calming Baby" instructions' "Bad" option was a pretty good idea. I suppose for legal reasons, Granny's XXX hooch could be swapped with Benadryl or cough syrup.

+1 on the CCI MiniMags. Mine has no preference for the FMJ vs. the JHP. Either works fine. I've shot around 800 to 1000 so far. I keep CCI Stingers in it when it's not at the range. I've pushed about 100 of those through it with no problem. Not my first choice if I need one for defense, but it's ready in case I need it. You'll want to read this too: http://www.freespeech.com/1917-1911M_P22_bible.pdf If the mag has a "B" or higher marking, most of the mods in the bible have already been done. You still want to look at the trigger bar ears though.

+1. Having the camera crews around continually reminds the colonists that it's a TV show. It's interaction with the outside world that damages the experiment.
-
Keep in mind that the colonists all still know it's a TV show and not real. Anyone they encounter is scripted for them to encounter, and they know it. They just have to decide if the producers are sending them friend or foe. Michel and logger-girl were accepted in pretty quickly once it was apparent they were meant to be part of the group, and not just passing marauders/beggars/traders. They just moved more quickly with Tick. The fact that he's even there means the producers put him there. It was pretty clear that he could have had his way with them, but didn't. So they read "intentionaly here" + "helping us now" + "has skills this group is seriously lacking" = "friend". Look on the bright side. They finally cut down the stairs to the upstairs.... Though I suspect those were a second set of stairs, or from another house. Too inconvenient to cut out the stairs they actually use.

Most dangerous water slide design ever I think

That wasn't a chick. Just a euro-dude with man-boobs. Oh....you mean the 2nd rider. -

Ahead of its time. Water Slide Does Full Loop Granted, the German one has a slight angle to one side, so it's not a true loop, but it's pretty close. Sorry for a video with a dude in a speedo. -

The question still remains as to whether or not charges would stick if agents (employees) of the posted establishment denied visibility of the sign(s). Of course that assumes that the establishment owner is such an anti that he/she'd press charges. I'd guess that the odds are pretty good that a manager would just inform the person of the policy and ask them to leave. It's bad for business to make a big scene.

Uselton's in Franklin beside the Toyota dealership (behind Whitt's) is the closest that I know of. He does have a nice range, but you'll pay a lot for it, and for the gun rentals, and for the mandatory range ammo. http://www.useltonindoorshootingsports.com/ Personally, I'd take the time to drive up to see the fellas at Guns and Leather in Greenbrier. http://www.gunsandleather.com/ You could also catch 840 around to Murfreesboro to On Target. I've never shot there, but it's probably closer to you than Greenbrier. Indoor Shooting Range Firearms & Concealed Carry Permit Classes - Murfreesboro, TN - On Target Indoor Gun Range Whichever way you go, I'd call and ask about any specific rentals that you're interested in.

I've asked around on several websites, including here, about the difference in the P-22 short and long barrel. Everyone says go with the short one. The 5" barrel doesn't add any accuracy according to the responses I've seen. Of course every shooter is different, so YMMV. And +1 on the P-22 for fun. Anyone with (or considering) a P-22 should read a great writeup from a guy going by the name 1917-1911M. His discoveries about the internals of this gun have resulted in some of the modifications made at the factory. http://www.freespeech.com/1917-1911M_P22_bible.pdf
