10-Ring

I'll take it

Tempted on the 9

Zippos are cool, but not worth their weight when you really need a fire. Same for flint and steel, it's cool, but takes up space and weight. 2 Bic lighters (just for redundancy) and you have a small and light weight reliable fire source. I've tried for years to add one to my pocket for EDC. I don't smoke and seldom actually need a lighter, so it always finds its way out of my pocket. I have made it a point to put 2 Bics in my boat, all of my vehicles, and my ATVs.

More often than not in the world we live in.

Pretty sure my face looks like this. Just had the TV on in the garage and it happened to be on.

Man I wish someone would steal mine.

That snail is carrying the ATF's mail.

GunBroker is a great indicator of what a gun will actually bring.

There was a run of 15-22s several years ago that had a defect that allowed them to discharge when out of battery. The ban is likely connected to that. Appleseed banned them for that reason.

I think Maverick is the best thing going on the cheap side right now. I have a 88 Security. Despite it probably being one of the cheapest shotguns I own I trust it. I've fired it a lot. It's seen a ton of truck miles and several hundred trail miles via ATV and SXS. What it hasn't seen is a lick of maintenance outside of wiping mud of it. It's never failed to go boom. If I lost it today I'd buy another tomorrow.

I've seen several who claim to be "knife makers" that are just reselling Pakistani knives. Years ago there was such a fella on Facebook. I reversed searched the images in his ads and called him out in a group. He blocked me. Actually running a Google image search of some of these images yields some interesting results. I've never heard of John Knives, but I would say he's a fraud.

I get off my ass and go work outside and BAM, I miss out.

Creating AI "art" with my 4 year old. The longer you look the more questions you will have.

I do not have one lying around but man, flatbeds are the way to go. So much more versatile than a traditional bed. I had a F250 with a toolbox under the bed on each side. Made removable bedsides and tailgate. IIRC the bed was 7 feet wide, room for all kinds of stuff. I got a Tundra afterwards and at the time the only flatbeds being offered were aluminum and cost $10k+. If I ever get rear-ended I may build one myself.

Do you really want to go down the slippery slope of how much acreage is required to be able to shoot on it? I have a range on 1.5 acres with a solid backstop that is totally safe. I had a friend that had 20 acres that was completely flat and not safe to shoot on. In my opinion the acerage involved is irrelevant. What is relevant is whether or not bullets are leaving the property. It seems that isn't the case here, but we are only hearing one side of the story. Also, my interpretation of what he said was that he was in the county and there were no nose ordinances.
