  1.   FIFY! :up:
  2. Wait, you said East Nashville? Just wait until after dark and have at it.  :)   Seriously though, there's also Charlie Haffner's place down near Spring Hill. It's not 3-sided like OK Corral but shotguns are good to go.
  3.   How does a senator who isn't an anti-gunner defending himself support any of those statements? They are all true (Sen. Boxer has a carry permit) but this story has nothing to do with hypocritical leftists. Not everyone with a D next to their name is an anti-gunner.
  4. He talks a good talk, and is on our side when it's easy to do that, but when when push has come to shove in the past, he has sold the 2A supporters out to dry to business interests (ie. his money donors)
  5. There was a cabin behind her, not a tent.
  6. Manufacturers can tell which wholesaler/distributor the gun went to based on S/N. The wholesaler can tell which retailer they sent it to. After that (in theory) it's a paper file hunt through the 4473s at the dealer.
  7. I wish I could believe that.
  8.   Tin foil hat not required when they come right out and say that's what  they're doing.
  9.   That should work. Kids in the 50s were taught their desks would protect them from a nuke. :D
  10. The comments are great.
  11. Then there's this guy. Don't know exactly what he did or if his actions made any difference at all, but he wasn't going down w/o a fight. Hope he pulls through.   http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/oregon-college-shooting/oregon-shooting-heroic-veteran-chris-mintz-was-shot-7-times-n437291
  12. That's about as good as it gets.
  13. Streamlight and Fenix get my money. My Streamlight Protac 2L is 260 lumens and easy to carry in a pocket. I'm very happy with it. I have a couple of tiny Fenix E01 lights that I keep in my cars' ash trays for quick access. Not super bright, but that's not why I got these tiny E01s. I'm impressed with the build quality so I'd have no problem getting a larger, more capable light from Fenix.
  14. I think what crossfire meant was that if you're using "I'm going trap shooting" as the cover story for why you have a shotgun, then you wouldn't need more than 2. Most trap/skeet ranges prohibit more than 2 being loaded at a time.
  15. American Rifleman is their "general topics" publication. It has handguns, long guns, historical pieces, and political stuff (ie Send us more money before Obama takes youre guns!!!OMG!!!WTF!!!BBQ!!!). I suspect that last part is in all of their magazines.
  16.   FGS is $70 (or more) plus $10 for the TICS. From their own website:     Nobody is disputing that the FFL should get a little scratch for their time and providing a legally necessary service. But market competition being what it is, $15-$25 seems to be the going rate around here for that fee (plus $10 for TICS which goes to the state). I'll pay up to $30 + TICS for someone in a convenient location. After that I'll drive a little out of my way for one of the $15 places.
  17. The official WH corporate policy is no firearms, excluding law enforcement. It is my limited understanding that WH corporate lets the franchisees interpret and enforce that with some discretion, but I don't think corporate would be happy with banning LEO in one extreme or not enforcing the policy for civilians in the other extreme. I suspect franchisees need to to toe that line pretty close.   Assuming that the information provided in the link I posted above is true, I have no problem with them asking the guy to put his gun in the car. I'm actually surprised he's not persona non grata at that WH location, assuming again that the info in the link is true.
  18. Here's an update from the other side's perspective.   http://www.eater.com/2015/9/30/9423481/waffle-house-refused-serve-armed-soldier-owner-statement-guns
  19. Anybody know what Everything Weapons' rate is?
  20. They incorporated the TN store as a different company from their web store.
  21. The library front desk will validate parking, but it's only for (I think) 2 hours.   All street parking meters (if you can find any) are free after 6pm M-Sat, and all day Sunday.   All parking operated by the city or state (meters and certain garages including the library and the Music City Center) are free to anyone with handicap plates or a placard, 24x7. That's state law. For meters, just park there with your plates or placard. No need to pay, you won't get a ticket. The meter maids will see your plates or placard and skip right on by. For the garages with an attendant (like the library) you'll write your name and plate/placard number on the back of the parking ticket you got when you entered. Hand it to the attendant and tell them you have disabled plates. They'll let you out. I'm not sure how it works at the unattended lots like the Music City Center. Payments there are all done by a kiosk.
  22.   That's both expensive and going to be all jammed up getting in. The police do a really good job getting people out, but it sucks getting in. It's convenient if you don't like to walk, though. Whenever I go, I ALWAYS park at the Library garage. It's the cheapest in town ($8 all day on weekends) and in a good location. It's #85 on this map: http://www.parkitdowntown.com/maps/interactive-map
  23.   Yes. Rippy's was the same way, minus the flag.   Roberts Western World is the only honky tonk I know of that is not posted. At least they weren't the last time I looked.
  24.   How about for less than half that price? $2399.95 http://www.electricgeneratordepot.com/husqvarna-1-5-acre-robotic-automower?google=1&CAWELAID=230006220000003322&CAGPSPN=pla&gclid=CLm926XhncgCFUY7gQodrDIHgQ   Not sure what the actual "range" is on it. That site says 1.5 acres, but I've seen others that say .35 acres. Either way, if it doesn't finish, it goes home and recharges, then finishes. I have to say that it's tempting.
