    Nashville police allowed to carry personal high-power AR-15 rifles

    Nashville considers itself to be a "progressive" city, not a gun friendly place. Yet 30% of the police own their own AR rifles? So much for LE being anti assault weapon...

    Wait for it...... I called 888-678-7894 on Friday to upgrade to Life for $300 without using a sponsor. To date, my credit card has not been charged nor have I received an email confirmation. I did contact NRA Member Services yesterday and got this reply: Orders made over the phone can...

    Contacted by BATFE today!!

    If I had filled out forms that stated I was purchasing a weapon or weapons for my own use, what is the problem showing properly credentialed batf agents that I did indeed still own them? After all, they already know I HAD them. They are also verifying someone did not purchase in your name...

    I love Utah. Peeping Toms, not so much.

    I am with MJRW on this one. I once caught someone outside my neighbors house. Turned out to be a another somewhat confused neighbor, a pentecostal minister, 80 years old, definitely not a peeping tom. He had backed though the neighbors yard with his car in the middle of the night and was...

    "I Designed A Pillow That Safely & Comfortably Stores a Handgun. What do you think?"

    I am starting my own product, the security mattress. Large enough to hold long guns as well handguns. In a pinch you can hide under it. It also doubles as a bank and a stash for "picture books". :neener:

    "I Designed A Pillow That Safely & Comfortably Stores a Handgun. What do you think?"

    Nope, not sleeping with a gun under my head. Nightstand seems more practical, plus I will remember to put the nightstand gun in the safe before leaving the house. Is it April 1st already?

    Off duty Police told they can't carry at University

    Concerning TCA 39-17-1350 Assuming this law applies, did the officers attending MTSU go to the Principals office every day to report? Exactly where is the Principals office, I can't find it on the campus map. 1) Who carries a firearm onto school grounds or inside a school building during...

    How usefull is your permit if you work?

    Talking strictly legally here, how often do you carry? I am restricted from carrying at work. I can't commute while carrying due to parking restrictions and can't leave a weapon on my bike when I ride. So once home, I only carry when walking in the neighborhood and on the weekends. Of...

    What would you change if you had Open Carry?

    The TN Handgun Carry Permit is technically all you need to carry concealed or open. In middle TN you generally won't see open carry by plain clothes folks other than gun store clerks and the bank machine guys. Open carry here would almost certainly get you unwanted attention. If open...

    Off duty Police told they can't carry at University

    I would expect any leo to respond to an armed robbery they witness on duty or off. That said, law enforcement response is not guaranteed, either by law or common practice. I had a problem with trespassing. My local enforcement told me to post no trespassing signs. When the problem...

    Off duty Police told they can't carry at University

    SomeKid, you and I are in agreement. I am only passing on the "official" postition. Back to the Original Intent of my post. What LE is saying here is we don't agree with the law, we have been breaking the law, and we want to continue to break the law because we find it inconvenient. Can...

    Off duty Police told they can't carry at University

    SomeKid, Thanks for finding the AG opinion. It answers the question about the legality of MTSU's position. But if you reread my post, note the law enforcement position is that they ARE ON DUTY during meal breaks. The AG opinion is about OFF DUTY officers. I found it interesting that the...

    Off duty Police told they can't carry at University

    Actually the police in Nashville DO eat in restaurants that serve alcohol on their meal breaks. I have seen them many times, last Sunday for instance, two marked cars from Belle Meade at Chef Yang off of White Bridge road. During a house committee meeting last session over the proposed TN...
