  1. I took my gun out of the holster yesterday and found rust on the disassembly latch on this gun. It isn't even a week old yet, I haven't even fired 100 rounds through it. Any thoughts on the next step for preventing this. Do I need to contact Beretta about this. or is it something I just need to keep on top of with this gun. My other gun is a Glock 34 and I haven't even seen the hint of any rust on it for the several years I've owned it.
  2. Was I the only one disappointed in the gun show last week? The only decent booth for handguns that I saw was from a local gun shop not five miles from my house. I told him if I wanted to look at his guns I could have just stayed home. I probably will not be back to another Bill Goodman show. Just my opinion.
  3. Fabulous weapon. Mine is always near
  4. Cool. I'm in. just let us know the details
  5. The Glock 34 is currently my only firearm, and other than the size, I love it. I think you will have several thousand rounds worth of fun out of it. I do.
  6. Taken from online search Condition One: Ready To Rock In Condition One, the pistol has a cartridge in the chamber and a fall magazine inserted into the magazine well. This state of readiness occurs just prior to firing the gun. In Condition One, a Glock handgun is brought into action simply by being brought on target. When placed on the trigger, the shooter's finger disengages the safety lever located in the middle of the trigger. In Condition One, 1911 pistols are in a mechanical state commonly called "cocked and locked." In this mode, the hammer is back and the thumb safety is up and in a locked or "safe" no-fire position. The magazine is full and in place. To bring into action, the 1911 is brought on target, the thumb safety depressed into fire mode and the trigger is accessed. The 1911 also requires that the grip safety located at the back of the frame be depressed in order to fire the pistol. In Condition One, a firearm is in its fullest state of readiness. The operator is simply required to draw or present the pistol to the threat and apply the mechanics necessary to make the pistol fire. Condition One would be a correct choice when it is necessary to carry the pistol in a state of readiness for potential imminent use. Condition Two: Dangerous And Awkward In Condition Two, the pistol has a cartridge in the chamber and a full magazine in place. Glocks cannot be carried in Condition Two as they have no external hammer. When a 1911 is carried in Condition Two, the thumb safety is off and the hammer is down. The grip safety is still in place but does not come into play until the hammer is brought back for firing. This Condition of Carry offers the dual disadvantage of being both dangerous and awkward. To bring the pistol into action, the operator must first cock the hammer to the rear, making this method of operation slower than the "cocked-and-locked" method of Condition One. Furthermore, Condition. Two could be dangerous if the hammer slips during the risky "dropping" process or if the gun itself is accidentally dropped while in this hammer-down mode. This mode of carry is not recommended under any circumstances. Condition Three: Is It Child Proof? In Condition Three the chamber is empty and a full magazine is in place in the magazine well. Condition Three is applicable in both the 1911 and Glock systems and is a common method of carry for military organizations around the world.
  7. I have an old 20 gauge single shot gun that my father gave me. He really didn't take good care of it. It hasn't fired a shell in well over 20 years, and I'd like to get it restored to it's prime again. It is a Winchester 37A, I called the customer service line and they couldn't even give me the date of manufacture. But that's beside the point. Does anyone know of a company in TN, preferably in middle TN that will refinish this shotgun for me? Any help is greatly appreciated.
  8. some of the guys here did a meet and shoot at CHMR. I heard it was a great success. I was busy that weekend and could not attend. I'd love for somebody to put together another one
  9. I got mine in three weeks and three days.
  10. Let the angels rejoice. My permit came in the mail today. That makes it officially two weeks and three days.
  11. Extremely interesting show. It really makes you think about how you would handle the situation. Glad to see it coming back.
  12. I know what you mean. I only have a Glock 34. with a length of a little over 8 inches. There is no way I'm concealing that, especially in summer.
  13. At the two week mark, no permit yet. Really didn't expect it, so not disappointed yet.
  14. I've been shooting there for about 3 months. And yes, Charlie is a great guy. It is a great time hanging out talking to all the guys and of course going through a couple of hundred rounds. Hope to see you there sometime.
  15. Thanks a ton for the info. Some of the times you guys had leaves me feeling very hopeful. I'll let you all know when it comes in.
  16. I just spent a couple of "wonderful" hours at the Dept. of Safety filing for my HCP. I immediately went and got fingerprinted, just so I could get it all done in one day. What are realistic wait times for me to get my permit in the mail? My co-worker said his took 8 weeks almost to the day. I really hope it's not that long.
  17. I can't be there, cause I work nights. I have heard her story on talk radio. It is very compelling. If you get a chance, go see her.
