That's one big bug. I did try my hand at carpenter bee skeet last summer with my Governor and #8 .410 birdshot load but I would have to up my game if they were that big.

I carry a Coast G10 in my pocket. Been a couple years now, it has went through the wash dropped more times that I can remember and still works. The dust cover over the reflect was lost some time in the past. It runs on 1 AAA and is very small. $5.35 on Amazon currently https://www.amazon.com/Coast-Inspection-Pocket-Light-Black/dp/B0015VY4SC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1515815209&sr=8-1&keywords=Coast+G10 It is not the brightest light but it small and cheap. I have much brighter lights but cost to much if I loose them (and I have lost a few) and they are big in comparison.

My Brother In-Law died last week and I am trying to help my Sister In-Law put some prices on his guns. Most I can find some references online to give her and idea but one has me stumped. Breda Brescia semi automatic 20g made in Italy sl 571242. I would put it in the roughly 80% or better condition. Breda seem to be well thought of semi shotgun on some of the forms but can't find many changing hands to get an idea on price. Any ideas. Sorry I don't have more pictures for some reason the other side didn't transfer to my computer. I'm not offering them for sale here (at least not right now) because they are in Ohio.

Vanguard has the lowest rates for long term mutual funds and are very helpful moving accounts. I have moved all my scattered accounts plus my retirement roll over to Vanguard with their help. I stopped playing with individual stocks a long time ago, I always picked wrong. I'm in an assortment of mutual funds now.

I have not pulled the trigger yet but I am think of installing some Blink cameras. Fairly cheap and free video storage and contact up to a certain number of minutes of video then it writes over the oldest videos. Indoor and outdoor cameras can be mixed on same account. Wireless install makes it easy. My son has a couple of these cameras and has been happy so far, but they have only been installed a few weeks. https://blinkforhome.com/

I have watched a few episodes, not a great show but it is ok once in awhile.

I did bad 29 out of 50. The choices did usually get me down to two but I'm a lousy guesser. With nothing for scale and not much exposure to some of the more obscure cartridges I'm surprised I did that well.

I have a couple of the big ammo cans. Probably close to 100lbs when full. I keep them on a Harbor Freight furniture cart. Works well just roll them in an out from under the bench. I use them for more long term storage. I keep a year or so of each caliber in smaller containers for easier access and so I don't have to expose ammo in the bigger cans to moisture as often so the dry bags last longer.

New York couple mount a machine gun on their car to show how everyone can prepare for WW1 July 13, 1917. Boy would the NY Liberal's heads blow up on this one today.

I still sometimes think I need a Luger but don't know why. My Dad brought a silver plated one back from WW-2, supposedly an officers gun. He sold it when I was still pretty young and I know who has it. He doesn't want to sell it back but it may become available at some point since his kids don't have much interest in his collection and he is around 90.
