No question there is much more work to be done by all of us...but there is no denying the huge scope of this victory. Way to go!!!!!

Lot's of good advice given in this thread, especially the recommendation about using Johnson's paste wax. I've used this "trick" for decades and even some of my most heavily carried guns look almost new. Thank you sir for your service.

Not really a bad price. Look at it this way, would you have bought it on the spot for $350? I don't know about your area but by me fifty bucks doesn't even fill my gas tank nowaday's. Pre lock Smiths are doing nothing but going up and in my opinion the model 36/60 is one of the very best...

Here's my understanding of how this went down. The Briley amendment did exist, it was written and did add public recreation areas and civic centers. It was even referenced word for word in one of TFA's e mails. SomeKid is absolutely right, Briley wrote it without having any intention of...

That's great news SomeKid! Do you know if 2184 passed with the Briley amendment or is it just for state parks?

Dang, SomeKid was right all along! There really is nothing lower than some of these people. I heard about this several days ago but didn't post because I was afraid the whole sorted affair would sound unbelievable. What I do hear is that the votes are there to pass this to the floor of the...

I use Speer GDHP 135gr. +p; when you care enough to send the very best...

The bill, as written, provides for carry in State parks, no more no less. The Briley amendment to the bill "deletes the section of the code that makes it an offense to carry weapons on public parks, playgrounds, civic centers and other public recreational buildings and grounds. TCA Secs...

Just to piggyback on what Kentucky and Correia have already said, we have a great amount of power at the state level. In the lower population states (let's face it, our entire state has half the population of New York City) we have a downright disproportionate amount of power. The simple...

According to the State legislature website it appears SB0011 was passed by the Senate Judiciary Committee by a vote of 9-0. It now moves on to the Calender and Rules Committee in both houses where it should be set up for a vote by the full House and Senate. This bill "extends the...

I'm more of a Glock guy than anything but I do own a 442 that I carry sometimes. My wife owns a 642 that she carries all the time. Both have locks. My 442 has just over a thousand rounds thru it and I believe my wifes has a little under that. I don't really have much of an opinion on the...

Kentucky A truly commendable effort!

Well said young fella!

Wow Somekid you might actually trust these guys less than I do. I think we'll be fine. SB 0053 passed 30 to 0. It actually is different than SB2143/HB2184 in that it deals only with TWRA properties. This new bill addresses State owned parks. The obvious amendment to be made would be to...

Somekid, I very much like your idea on adding the amendments and I've already approached my Senator regarding some of them. I'm not quite sure what you mean about a stealth attempt at killing park carry. How can a bill that provides for carrying in a park be an attempt at killing park...

This bill still has to pass the House and Senate. The House bill number is HB 2184 and the Senate bill is SB 2143. These bills have a very good chance of passing if enough pressure is applied and kept up. Contact your reps now.

There is a thread on this in GD http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=270955. It certainly should be here also. It looks like it will be coming up for a vote on 4/25. The House bill is number HB2184 and the Senate bill is SB 2143. This has a good chance to pass but it needs support...

House and Senate bill numbers... The number of the house bill is 2184 and the companion bill in the senate is 2143. They need to hear from us on this. Yes, we still will be stuck with the restaurant ban but things have to start somewhere and this is a good place. Don't forget, when the...

This is very good news. Once again, if someone could provide a bill number I would be most grateful.

re: crossdraw I carry my 442 crossdraw when I'm working outside. It rides close to my belt buckle at about eleven o clock. Many people disparage crossdraw but I never understood why. For me it is one of the most stealthy ways of drawing a gun, and with practice it can be accomplished...
