Problem is that you couldn't actually trap for these guys in this type of an area. Snares or leg holds would get more dogs and cats than coyotes. Animal control is just going to relocate them. I figure lining a nice winter coat with them would be a better idea.

They love 'em some house cats and trash, so you will only see more of them if you see one now.

I still always laugh thinking about the days I spend sitting on the cold ground waiting for a deer to happen by. Nothing to do but try to stay still but warm and scan around for movement and sound. Now we can sit and play on our smartphones while we kill that same time using everything but live satellite to improve our chances. Hope you get a big one today that is just short of moose size.

Nice knife! Wish I had friends like that. Lol So you belt carry something that size every day?

Yeah I have never understand how people just lose gun parts. Do you do gunsmithing on your couch or something and the cushions eat them??

Exactly why I try not to trade, buy, or sell with friends and family..... There is always some type of drama.

Thanks. I usually figure things out and make it all work, but I kind of don't want to pull that trigger on a live round the first time and something terminal happen. I will look around for a good deal. I do know I need a barrel wrench. I have a 7.5 inch barrel that has to come off the partial upper I got before it even comes close to my lower parts. And I don't even have a dog to worry about getting shot.lol

Nice to meet you.

Oh, so I am guessing some people place the unit in a bag when putting those in so if they fly, they don't go anywhere. I had seen several people mention to be careful, but nothing about a bag. I can understand, I still have a Dell laptop screw missing because it fell on my office's multicolored carpet. lol

Plastic bag? That one zoomed WAY over my head. Care to educate me in either AR tools or comedy?

Wow. I would have figured the copper would bend under that weight. I think you should christen it the "Battle Cigar Carrier" (BCC) The tag line could be something like "Always have one around to smoke after you win that tough battle" lol Then you could do whatever military symbol the buyer wanted on the flap below the stud hole. Maybe even add a belt loop on the back if they wanted. These are the kinds of things that bounce around in my brain.

I am looking at putting together and AR. I know I am like the last person in the world to decide to do that. I really did not mean to, I just ended up with enough parts that I said " What the Heck might as well get the last couple and be done with it." I have read a lot on line and I see a wide range of "must have" tools that vary from article to article. Since I am not going to be assembling 50, but may want to do more in the future, what do you guys suggest as a basic set of tools? Thanks

Interested how you made the cigar holder crush proof? Is that copper pipe? Both nice looking jobs.

Cool history. To me it is sad that he was tried for that. Back then doing stuff like that was not thought of as illegal. How much innovation in a lot of gun areas are we not seeing because someone is scared to death that they will get arrested for working on it? Innovation has always come best from the free minds that work outside the corporate box. Corporations are driven by their marketing departments and sales, not R&D

I would say that is skirting the line of breaking the law..... and maybe your wrist if it is full auto. Plus that is one ugly fore grip. Never liked the finger grooves in those.

In their next story they will announce a .45 Full auto in 9mm lol

That is a nice looking gun. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah I like the basket weave. It is a classic. Did Barney carry a 6 inch barrel model? Saw one like this that I thought about. I need to see what styles George does and what prices. I do a little leather, but nothing as involved as a holster. Plus I may want a double speed loader case to match.

My biggest part of getting a holster is picking the type I want. Anybody have any idea what type would be era appropriate for this gun?

Nice to meet you

Now if I can just be as lucky a few more times and have the money to buy what I find. Lol

Yeah hoping they see it eventually.

Feel free to drop me a line any time. I like getting to know others around

Yeah. I saw that somewhere in the literature I read. It is hard to beat this design. 90 years old and it still snaps crisp when you pull the trigger.

Oh I know. I was already looking at another, but my funding will keep it sane. LoL
