  1. Whether there are or aren't, unfortunately, the eye witnesses and abductees are not very credible. Man, being created in the image of God may be what has their interest. If this is their motivation, I fear they are probably sadly disappointed.
  2. All hail SalesForce It's a web based customer relationship management platform. Problem is most leadership makes employees serve the product vs. the product serving the employees.
  3. Pretty catchy, attention grabbing headline, and a snippet. the Riverside Sheriff’s Department have 30 days to finalize all changes to their CCW policy and eliminate “any and all U.S. Citizenship requirements” from the department website that describe the application process, and from CCW application forms. Keeping legal non-citizens safe from themselves? Not being a constitutional scholar, I'm not sure what protections are extended to legal visitors. “This coalition victory is important,” added Brandon Combs of the Firearms Policy Coalition, “because it not only helps to restore access to the fundamental right to bear arms, it also sends a crystal-clear message to carry licensing authorities that the rights of the people can and will be enforced in our courts. This statement infers if you are a legal, law abiding non US resident, you should be able to exercise the US 2A. The best news, this decision was delivered by a CA court https://www.ammoland.com/2019/05/fed-judge-permanently-enjoins-riverside-countys-ccw-application-denials/#axzz5pPXXBL8o
  4. I too, use the iTarget, not as much as I should. No excuses since I've many DA/SA semi and wheelies
  5. Efforts from Bloomberg's money to skew the truth. Dr. Webster and Dr. Crifasi offer a final wrap-up discussion of the week two material. They reiterate the major points their colleagues made in this module I think this illustrates the example of using opinions and studies of comptempory learned men and women to provide facts and create truth. https://www.ammoland.com/2019/05/bloomberg-gun-ignorance-course-continues-bloomberging-rights-away/#axzz5p8RIquQZ
  6. That would be a great picture for Jeb48's thread. Have your elitist neighbors called 5-0 yet? Random, inconsistent gun fire is hard for the ear and brain to process, kind of like, "what was that?" and a pause to listen for subsequent 'noise'
  7. Which, I discovered, is different from the 007 Theme
  8. Are you sure it's not an .88?
  9. This is to the key note speaker... The quack medicine vendor is busier than ever. Money is plenty and he wants some of it. He uses mental suggestion and interests us. He is a specialist in distortion who probes into the ordinary sensations of healthy people and perverts them into symptoms. Every billboard, newspaper, fence-rail, barn and rock thrusts out a suggestion of sickness as never before. The only vulnerable point to attack the vicious traffic is the advertising. If governments forbid that as they should, the next generation will be healthier and richer. Written in 1918. Andsome insight to an APA gathering https://slatestarcodex.com/2019/05/22/the-apa-meeting-a-photo-essay/
  10. The fallacy of argument #5 is the ease to influence integrity and survey sample 4 out of 5 dentists surveyed type of affair
  11. Gave it some more thought. Here are a few arguments I've heard which have nothing to do with the truth of the statements made in the 2A. 1. The founders were in a state of evolution, creating their version of a right based on their "now" They just won and had a national interest, the new citizens pushing west had to evict the indigenous, and the police were days or decades away. 2.The founders could have never imagined the ingenuity of man to create the most lethal, effective killing small arms on the planet 3. References to what other learned, people have said, written, exposed upon regarding the 2A with the certainty these modern opinions are valid. 4. Charts and graphs showing the US is leading the world in killing civilians with small arms. If the founders saw this info the amendment would be different. 5. Public opinion polls show the amendment should be changed. 6. And the unspoken one, the influence of money through grants, donations, and lobbying. Divert and deflect the argument with hand selected facts, you can eliminate truth from any narrative.
  12. I did a DIY on my 870 Tactical, see issue, standard pull to long for me. Cut a bit off, just enough to retail the rear sling attachment. Added a Limb Saver, perfect fit, both on the butt and how it fits the stock. I went this route because I didn't want to spend money on an adjustable stock. Is this an option for your application? I've never handled a shotgun with a pistol grip, so can't give any info, just opinion, to the pros / cons
  13. Great State attracting great people. I transplanted from Winter Park (Orlando) in 1994. Can't imagine living anywhere else. Speaking with a friend about why TN. Geographic location with good airports and interstates, natural geography weather, taxes, and less intrusive .gov (my perspective) Natives and longer term residents have the view, "come on in, just don't bring and try to enact the same stupid .gov stuff you left behind." If it was so good, we'd already be doing it. Problems, yep. Compare urban to suburban / rural and the are differences of opinion. Easterners think we live in the best part of the state (at least I do - but I'm not a city kid) It's easy to highlight problems and blight within urban areas because of population density. We simply get to point at Nashville for Middle and Memphis for Westerners, and it seems idyllic here. Especially if you never travel MLK past Walter P...
  14. Tears of joy as I think about where she is, in the presence of God and all the faithful departed. I pray you rejoice in the Lord's victory over Satan with everlasting life, free from these weak and failing bodies I hope you are comforted in knowing of God's love shown through the cosmic battle He fought for her (and all of our) soul(s) Praise be to you, Lord Jesus Christ, who's blood washes away our sins and makes us acceptable before your Father!
  15. Old skool tacti-kool! Welcome aboard. For the group, Does ORSA offer SASS?
  16. No expertise with Sig, however I would: Start at 3 yards Maybe some additional lubrication, more rounds, and dry fire? It could be the mag spring or ammo brand. For $250, I think it's worth a bit more testing. Regarding night sights, they're getting dim on my '08 75B, but still visible and usable in low light. I like night sights because the inserts make a great day time sight pic. If 80% of DGUs fall in the 3-3-3 rule, keyboard kommando, mall ninja high speed operator sights are less important. I also understand 70% of DGUs occur between 6p and 6a, so low light gear could be useful...add a retinal burning LED light and night vision, those half life sights are just fine!
  17. Liked the history. Your 'inserting of active graphics' skills are impressive!
  18. Dual shoulder holster?
  19. Fair statement. I thought it interesting how everything about the 2A today is discussed in context, what the drafters really meant, how it is now attacked with the historical point of view. Thought I saw some correlation.
  20. Apparently Satan is against the 2A as well. From The Screwtape Letters 2:28:45 to 2:29:50 After I listened, I reflected on dialogue attacking our right. It's a great question; does this amendment have truth to it? Well regulated militia, necessary for a free state, I think so. Right to keep and bear, shall not be infringed. That seems a statement of fact and a truth for the militia bit. Well regulated? We're all pointing in the same direction at the same BGs? (And you get your democratic say if you show up to help)
  21. Welcome to a great forum and state!
  22. Not a RMR operator, yet. I understand from those who are, not a fad, but a very practical accessory.
  23. Once I get the Leaf situated, I'm good. 13 miles due south of Knoxville. All I need if free ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox We don't record much, so not a big issue.
  24. Welcome aboard! What's your favorite air pistol?
  25. You've got a pretty fancy firearm display platform, ballistic billiards?
