Not really sure why we care what happens on Armslist.

Use this thread to post any firearms, outdoors, hunting, camping related 2014 Black Friday sales alerts that you come across.  If it would be of interest to the shooter or outdoorsman, list it here.  :)  

Heheh.  My family always treated Thanksgiving as the start of the Christmas season.  The cold weather and having a 9-month old girl in the house who is fascinated by the Christmas stuff we see in stores [already] make my heart grow two-sizes bigger a bit earlier than normal.  :D

I can't help it.  I'm in the holiday mood.  :)

Welcome to TGO.

Great looking knife!  Willis came through as always.  Dude knows his blades!  :up:

I'm searching for some Weller 12 and some Eagle 17 myself.  Can't seem to find any of those locally.   Pappy is over-rated and strictly the domain of hipster douchebags wanting to make a statement about their bank account more-so than about their taste in distilled spirits.  I've had a snort of it before and frankly there are far better bourbons out there for a lot less money, available year-round.

I saw some Bernheim at the local store the other day and wasn't sure if I wanted to risk trying it.  I'm not familiar with the brand and wanted to do some research first.   Good stuff then?

  I was looking at commercial units.  The prices I saw at the time were $1800 and up.

I really thought about doing a waste-oil heater but my new garage stayed pretty warm last winter so I'm still not certain I need one.

Welcome!

Welcome. :)

I guess I'll cancel my idea of using "scratch off" posts where every post is an ad and you have to scratch it away with your mouse before you can read what was said.   :D

I got my butt whipped with a belt a few times as a kid.  It was reserved for corporal punishment and usually when I had been corrected several times previously and still disobeyed or when I had done something dangerous/damaging, I deserved it when it happened, and I think I turned out alright.  I disagree with anyone who believes that spanking a child isn't a viable correction tool.  There are a lot of leaches on society out there who might have turned out better if they'd had a knot jerked in their asses when they were kids.   But I digress.   As it relates to the story at hand, I really can't help but think that someone just has it out for the whole SoG "family".  Granted what Will Hayden is accused of, if guilty, is reprehensible and deserves the full punishment of the law (and then some) but what these two were accused of sounds like nothing more than a child getting disciplined.   Maybe I'm just becoming increasingly skeptical in my old age, but it sure seems that someone, somewhere, decided to put this family out of business and ruin them forever.

Unless you see a sign up advertising it as a range, one would probably be correct assuming it's just a person's private property.

  Welcome.

  Welcome.

I need to hunt down some more of the Weller Antique, as I emptied the last of my bottles a month or two back.  None of the local stores that I checked had any yet.

  I can't summon strong enough words to express how much I agree with everything you just said.

That thing looks mean.  Nice work!

  At times like this I wonder if trash like that talk and write the way they do because they think it's cool, or if they simply don't have any grasp of grammar.

This thread revived a desire I have had, off and on, for a while to pick up one of the Sig TacOps Traditional full-size 1911s.  I may have to put that on my Christmas list and ask Mrs. Santa to either give me the OK or go pick one up for me herself.  :)

  LOL   On a serious note though, Gordon, that thing is bad ass.  Love what you did with it!
