Steve RA Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 The Texas (TX) state sales tax rate is currently 6.25%. Depending on local municipalities, the total tax rate can be as high as 8.25%. At the local levels, city taxes can range from .25% – 2%; county rates vary from .5% – 1.5%; transit from .25% – 1%; and special purpose districts from .125% – 2%. However, the combined rate of local sales and use taxes cannot exceed 2%, making the highest possible combined tax rate 8.25%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point i was trying to make is; Ohio has a restriction on the purchase of magazines . You can not purchase a magazine, in Ohio, that holds more than 30 rounds (with the exception of 22 rim fire). Nor will companies outside Ohio ship magazines, in excess of 30 rounds, to an Ohio address. There is no such restriction in other states, like Tennessee.

Fwiw the rule must say you are not allowed to use a mag that holds more than 30 rounds. But they sure do sell them. As a matter of fact Wright Patterson AFB gunshop sells 60 round sure fire mags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi-Power Jack Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 going to cross reference this with jobs! That's just silly, in my opinion - What's jobs got to do with picking a state - obviously firearms and weather and BBQ are MUCH more important.

pfcchambers Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Being from Utah I certainly could throw my vote for it. If you love the outdoors and shooting its a great state. I currently leave in Tx. Active duty and stationed here. It is nice and gun laws are pretty good. But surprisingly not near as good as Utah. Plus the one thing I can not get over is there is no public land. It really restricts your outdoor activities unless you happen to own a ranch. I do love the Texas winters but I can not wait to get back out West. Southern Utah is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegionShooter Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) Anyone have an opinion on Tennessee? Nashville is great, as is most of the rest of the state. 40 minutes from Nashville one way and 40 minutes from LBL national rec area the other where I live. Hunting for days, outdoors for days, land is reasonable, Class 3 friendly, CCW friendly, southern hospitality, good food. Lots of great things down here. State sales tax, well not so great. 9.75% BUT, no state income tax so there's a trade off. And if you live near the Kentucky border, well their sales tax is around 6.5% I think, so you can drive there to purchase big ticket items. And if you're into this sort of thing, you're in bourbon country... Edited September 15, 2014 by LegionShooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clipper Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Driving East on I-40, all Oklahoma exits advertise casinos, in Arkansas, they advertise Porno Shops, in Tennessee, they advertise gun shops. I don't do casinos or porn, but guns....now I could live with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranger Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 My wife and I are considering Alabama for retirement. We specifically are interested in life on a big lake or the Tennessee River. We live in Canton - northwest of Atlanta now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
