So I just regenerated the silica gel I keep in my safe. I have two containers in my safe with about 1200 total grams of silica gel (when dry). I’m not exactly sure when I last regenerated it, maybe Christmas holidays, maybe in January. Anyway, the silica gel had absorbed about 175g or 3/4 cup of water. That’s a good bit of moisture kept off my guns. I probably went a little long between regeneration, but I don’t think the silica gel was spent.

I do enough federal work that I couldn’t smoke/ingest cannabis even in a legal state.

When I last had a BG check, I noticed the form has changed to reflect that while cannabis is legal in many state jurisdictions, it remains Federally banned.

Weekend Bump. isn’t there another lever-crazed person out there? -
While not breast cancer, I am also a two time survivor of Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (including high dose Chemo and a stem cell transplant). It can be a long tough road, but with prayer faith and family, you can get through this.

1937 Remington Model 81 chambered in 35 Remington.
Snaveba replied to Snaveba's topic in Show and Tell
I will say, it’s a heavy som-bitch. -
I picked up my Model 81 in .35 Remington today from my FFL. I would have had it sooner, but I’m STILL waiting on a GB seller to ship my Marlin 1894 44mag. It’s been 3 weeks. But I digress. The Remington is in very good condition for an 86 year old rifle. Based on the serial number all over every part, it is from 1937. I believe it was sent back to Remington in October of 41 based on the E3K date code stamped on the barrel shroud. The barrel shroud has a nice brown patina. The receiver has much of its bluing remaining. It is not marked with a “B” or “C” but there is very nice hand checkering of the stock and forearm. It has a grip cap on the pistol grip which I was usually on the D grade or higher. I wonder if the rifle was sent back to Remington in 41 to get the upgrades to the wood. it has a period Marbles peep sight and folding rear sight. I took the receiver completely apart today to give it a really good cleaning. I need to get the proper tool to disassemble the barrel. It is a well-built rifle. I can’t wait to get it out to the farm to shoot. I cleaned up the furniture a bit with denatured alcohol. Like all my other rifles, I will come back with a hand rubbed linseed oil finish. Unfortunately, I could not find my small container of Winchester Stock Oil. I guess I need to buy more.

Proof that “Thank you for your service” is just lip service.
Snaveba replied to Links2k's topic in General Chat
I hope folks take my thanks as genuine. In the 80’s I was a teenager and cared about less important things. As they say, with age comes wisdom and understanding. -

Agreed on the p365.

I wouldn’t think it would be illegal to discharge a firearm at night (unless it is not allowed at all in his local) as long as he isn’t hunting. However, I think you might can shoot coyotes at night (don’t quote me on that). Deer, I don’t think he can shoot one at night.

Another trip in the way back machine - Pizza place in Nashville
Snaveba replied to monkeylizard's topic in General Chat
I was thinking Shakey’s Pizza Parlor, but I believe it was in Green Hills. My dad might remember, he went to Vanderbilt in the late 50’s early 60’s. I’ll ask him tomorrow. -

I know you are still on a long unknown path, but I am thankful it was not HLH. Still praying for your family and her recovery.
