For the month of July if you sign up 2 friends you can attend the TN Handgun Permit Class for 1/2 price ($55). If you sign up 4 friends you come free. Not a bad way to get some solid training is it? All you have to do is know some people. Keep the money for yourself or discount everyone’s training in your group. The choice is yours.
p.s. we won’t tell anyone what you do.
We have had good response to the Mossy Creek Training launch. Right now we have classes scheduled on July 2, 10 and 17. We have also had some inquiries for the Women’s only classes. Look for them in August and September. If you need a class date, we only need a few people to have one, so email us wiith a date that works and gets some friends together and we will have a class.
We have completed our intial tests for the Mossy Creek Arms AR-15 Model 1542. By the way, anyone know what the 1542 means? We have done our intial function testing to see if it will feed all types of ammo with different mags. Our AR will have the Magpul Mags, which we think are the best, but the gun needs to run anything. we also have some of the nasiest ammo, that still ran. This is exactly what we want. We are trying to build the best custom AR on the market.
Make no mistake about it, we aren’t trying to keep up with the cheapo market. We have spent a lot of time and money trying to get you an AR that is different. Our company is differnt as well. We aren’t trying to reach the world with our rifle, we are trying to reach you. We want you to check it out. Pay attention to the MCA site to see about getting a chance to shoot our rifle before you buy. You won’t be dissapointed.
We are so excited about the opportunity to offer the Handgun Permit class in Nashville next month. July is looking to be very busy for the Training section. I wanted to remind some of our female readers about the opportunity they have to train in a women’s only environment and whythat is so beneficial.
If you don’t have any equipment we have it all. We will rent you a firearm, provide the ammo, and show you how to use it. We will also put you in a position to purchase a firearm that is right for you. If you have any reservations feel free to email us and ask any questions (remember no stupid questions,), and set up a class date for you and several of the girls. We will answer your questions and get you ready to start shooting.
If you have been considering obtaining a TN Handgun Permit you are required to take a class that is at least 8 hours long that will cover some of the basic fundamentals of shooting and safety as well as give you a basic understanding of TN laws pertaining to the handgun permit. You may be thinking that the course is worthless because you are already a great shooter, have knowledge of the laws because you found them on the internet, and have a full understanding of the responsibilities being a handgun permit holder.
I want to encourage you to revisit all 3 of those assumptions. Are you familiar with the liability that TN places on each bullet that leaves your firearm? Have you no room to improve by revisiting the fundamentals? One of my favorite things to do is to take “good shooters” to an IDPA match and let them discover a dynamic world that isn’t shooting cans on the back 40. It can be humbling. We all need to be reminded of the fundamentals as we progress.
At our handgun permit class you will be challenged to improve your general knowledge of firearms use, nomenclature and function. You will be taught by competition shooters, sworn law enforcement and even a FBI certified firearms instructor who regularly qualifies the marksman for a TN law enforcement agency. All of our instructors bring something to the table that will help you become a better shooter.
Don’t blow off the class as something to go through. These classes will build a solid base if you are a new shooter and help the seasoned shooter refocus on fundamentals and marksmanship. In the end it might be 8 hours that saves your life and livelihood.
Since I entered the gun business in 2001, Glock 19′s have been the same price at the dealer level. We have not seen one increase in 9 years. Pretty impressive if you ask me. I wish I could say the same for things like gasoline. Unfortunately everything seems to go up even though the manufacturing processes are getting simpler.
Glock has just introduced their first price increase and I bet you didn’t even notice that it had happened. The new Generation 4 Glock 19 is about $30 more than the standard Glock 19. Not bad you say because it comes with so many cool features like that interchangeable backstrap.
When you will notice is when the Generation 3′s are fazed out. It will be a while. I think there are still only 4 models with the RTF. But don’t worry, it’s coming.
Now I don’t have a problem with this. I think they have added value that wasn’t there before so it makes sense. If you are going to raise prices give me something. They have with the Gen 4. If they keep it at this price for another 9 years I won’t have one complaint.
By the way a Glock trigger job makes a great addition to that Generation 4!

I recently had the opportunity to check out a friend’s Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22. The 15-22 is a dedicated 22lr AR look a like. They sell for around $450 and come with one mag.
As far as looks go, this is a great reproduction. The lower is actually one piece with the buffer tube that is made from a polymer like substance. It has a 6 position stock front and rear sights.
He told me that at the range he only had one failure to fire and attributed it to the cheap bulk pack of ammo he was using. That was surprising to me, because most of the time these types of weapons can be a little picky until they are broken in good.
His only complaint was that the gun’s front sight was not adjustable. All elevation had to be corrected at the rear sight. I think if an adjustable front sight was added and another mag thrown in, this would be perfect.
Obviously you can get a conversion kit for your AR for less than half, but then again you don’t have a dedicated shooter. Stay tuned for more on the conversion kits. We are working one up right now that is pretty sweet.
Not the kind you are likely thinking about. Bill Seaver who runs Micro Explosion is hosting a boot camp in Nashville July 19, to teach you all things social media. Bill and I go back to college and he is responsible for helping me create what you have come to know as MCC on the web. He doesn’t do design, he helps you think about how to do business in today’s world.
As a perk to all of our readers Bill is offering a discount code off of the normal price. You can check out all of the pertinent info at his blog. Enter the following promo code to get your discount: socialboot_mcc
Guys you know I don’t promote stuff I don’t believe in. This guy is quality. You won’t want to miss this opportunity. This will work for all walks of life. Business, churches, schools, 501c3′s etc.
And for the critics of things like this; I receive nothing for this. Just tell him buddy at MCC sent you. That will probably nullify your $50 discount though so be careful.
If you are looking for a course to satisfy the TN requirements to get your Handgun Permit you can sign up now for courses that are starting in July. We have 3 dates available right now; July 2, 10, and 17. The cost of the course is $110 which includes training materials and the NRA Basic Pistol book which is an incredible reference.
I believe that we have put together one of the most professional, well qualified cadre of instructors in Middle TN. If you are in the Nashville area, we hope that you will choose to train with us. We promise that you will leave a safer, better shooter when the class is finished. If you are looking for a cookie cutter class to pass you through, you need not apply. This is a serious course that will take at least 8 hours.
Space is available, but it is limited. We intentionally limit our classes, so check out the Training Page for more info and sign ups. We look forward to working with you.
