Remington Arms Recall on Model 700 and Seven with X-Mark Pro

Luckily mine is the non pro version! -
U.S. Navy's New boomstick: 32-megajoule rail gun
maroonandwhite replied to jhc77's topic in General Chat
Awesome series as well. -
Just left the Walmart by 100 Oaks Mall and they had 10 bricks on the shelf. An officer ahead of me bought 6 and I bought 1.......then once I got to the truck realized that was stupid and went back for the other three. A lady also brought a cardboard box from the back for him which I believe was more .22 ammo. They may have more in the back. They had plenty of everything else as well with no limit on amount that they mentioned. It's possible that since I saw the officer buying so much they had to let me do it as well. If you need 9mm or any other handgun caliber they had it. May be worth a shot for the .22 as well.

Nashville Armory IDPA Tuesday
maroonandwhite replied to Wiljo05's topic in Competitive Shooting Sports
I shot IDPA once before I moved to Nashville. Are the gear requirements basically the same? Gun, holster, 2-3 mags, mag carriers, cover garment? Do they ever set up any reactive targets? I work about a mile for NA so I am really excited about being able to take this up again. -
Seems to have worked! I shot about 15 mags with one round in them with no broken followers. For what it's worth I did notice that the mag with the broken follower had the mag spring installed backwards. Could be something to that. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

What to expect at outdoor range? And which one?
maroonandwhite replied to maroonandwhite's topic in General Chat
I think we are going to give Guns and Leather a shot today. The wife wants to go check out the Hendersonville area. $200 for a year membership ain't bad either. -
Wouldn't bother me one bit. I could go hunting after work on weekdays!

Plus they have IDPA on a weeknight!! Since I work on Saturday mornings I have never been able to feed that addiction. -
What to expect at outdoor range? And which one?
maroonandwhite replied to maroonandwhite's topic in General Chat
Well the more checking I have done there isn't one really that close to me anyways. Nashville Armory seems like the best indoor range but it's a bit higher than I'm used to paying. No doubt worth it though. Guns and Leather is a few bucks cheaper but on the other side of town. May just have to bite the bullet and give Nashville Armory a shot. I have always been nervous at indoor ranges due to the lack of a safety officer actually in the range. I believe NA advertises that they have this. If they do then that's a definite plus. I get tired of constantly making sure someone isn't going to shoot me. -
I am looking to visit an outdoor range this afternoon with the wife to shoot a few new handguns. Can anyone recommend a good one close to Bellevue and also let me know what to expect? Do they have targets or anything for sale or is it just bring your own? I just want to show up prepared. I am not new to shooting at ranges, just outdoor ranges. Thanks!

Have any of you guys had this problem with the CM/CW/PM model Kahr's? I just traded my CW9 for a CM40. The giy told me up front that one of the mags has a broken follower. It seems to be a known but not widespread problem with them. When we made the trade I actually found out that one of the followers in one of my CW9 mags was broken the same way. It seems that the feed ramp sticks a little too far back and hits the follower upon recoil of the last shot in the mag. It seems to be more prevalent in the .40 due to more recoil. The fix everyone recommended online was to grind some of the feed ramp off with the ol' dremel and polish it up......which I did. I basically used some paste to mark the barrel and inserted the mag to see if they were making contact. The weird thing is even with a little taken off of it there is still plenty of "extra" feed ramp well below where the bullet actually touches the ramp. I'm gonna try it out for 100 rounds and see what happens before taking any more off. Just curious if anyone else has had this problem and tried this fix. From what I've read Kahr will just do the same thing if I send it in.

"Over 100 rounds!" :rofl: Can't remember the username but the guy that has the WALL of ammo on here should send her a pic or two. She would die.

Huh?

Video: Snowmobiler shoots moose
maroonandwhite replied to Erik88's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
I won't fault him one way or the other on shooting it since I wasn't there but he should have had at least a little respect for it and put it down. Who knows, maybe he went back....but I doubt it. -
Good/best barber shop in Nashville area?
maroonandwhite replied to maroonandwhite's topic in General Chat
Yeah I saw uncle and it seemed nice and in my price range. I am also interested in Green Hill Barber shop.They have two master barbers on staff. I may have to try one of these two out. -
I am looking for a good barber in the Nashville area. Moving from Memphis I have only ever had close access to sport clips and the like. I am looking for a good shop that can handle the classic cuts and really pays attention to detail. If I am going to pay $30 for a haircut I want more than some clippers ran over my head. Preferably a shop that can do good beard trimming. Any recommendations? I found Red's Classic Shop online that seems to get good reviews.

Which indoor TV antenna should I get?
maroonandwhite replied to maroonandwhite's topic in General Chat
WOW! I have had it up to my neck with ATT. They are now saying again that I can't get Uverse TV there! I spoke to Comcast just a minute ago and they can set me up with a no contract plan for a nice price that I am probably going with. Most of these folks I have talked to at ATT are so incompetent that I am not sure how they still have a job. -

UPDATE! I arrived back in Nashville yesterday to find that all the channels have been cut off. Looks like its uverse time after all. That's a bummer. -

Yeah that's what Keal G Seo recommended to me. I can confirm it does work on my end. I get all of the main local channels with a few extras. -

maroonandwhite replied to maroonandwhite's topic in General Chat
Just an update. The Mohu Leaf did work but only picked up seven channels. It picked up the basic channels fine but made me wonder how sensitive it may be. A slight movement and it would lose the signal. The GOOD news is that when I plugged into the Comcast cable I was able to get the TV to program 41 channels! About half of them were repeats or dead/scrambled but once I went through and weeded them out I now have all the basics as well as a few other oddball local channels. Thanks for the tip Keal G Seo! You were right! -
I caught that as well. :screwy:

Sold my house in Fayetteville. Close end of this month.
maroonandwhite replied to Wyldk2's topic in General Chat
Congrats. I'm about to be in the same boat. Just listed mine for sale a week or two ago. -
That is amazing.... If it wasn't so ugly I'd want one!

This is mine I built a while back. It should last a few decades.
