MacGyver

That’s an impressively low bore axis.

Dang. Stair falls have taken a few of our beloved members over the years - at least one way too young. Be careful out there. My prayers are with those who loved him.

Oh my goodness. I was telling this story to someone just the other day. Glad this thread hasn’t been lost to the ages.

The temperature dropped 30F in 9 minutes yesterday as the front arrived west of us.

These are great belts. If you're looking for a good base for an EDC platform - this is about as good as it gets.

Meat is one of those things that you probably shouldn't put first on your canning list. You definitely need to have your canning safety squared away first. But, protein is a precious commodity. It's a good skill to have. I grew up with people who would pressure can chicken every time it went on sale. It's quite good in recipes - more or less perfectly braised, tender meat.

I think you’ll be surprised how good it is - especially for stews and chili and tacos and stuff like that.

This is a great deal on a very limited item.

The FTC actually has more room to act than about any group out there. Filing the complaint that lets them see the documentation of this company acting in bad faith over a period of time is important. Companies go out of business all the time. Continuing to take orders after you're effectively out of business is frowned upon. The resolution won't be quick - FTC cases go on for years. The money in this case is likely already gone for good. But, they can hold the management team accountable.

I’d encourage you to file a complaint with the FTC.

Very few people start out looking to commit a crime like this. But you do look up one day and find yourself in so deep that suddenly committing another federal crime to try to find a way out seems reasonable. The most charitable thought here is that when you run a gun shop, there’s paperwork that has to be done exactly right every day. That’s a minor burden when you’re selling three a week. When you’re moving a hundred or more per day like they were in the Obama boom - well - that’s a compliance department.

Unbelievable. I did a bunch of business there over the years. What a shame.

I went back and checked. I’ve got a URX-3 wrench - that unfortunately is different enough that it won’t won’t on a URX-4.

Saturday was awfully cold for dark to dark. Glad you were able to salvage it yesterday.

45-70 is pretty mulch my go to for everything larger than a rabbit under 150 meters.

I know I have an SR-25 wrench. I can't remember if I have a URX-4 or not. I think the URX-3 used something a little different. Let me check.

That’s cool. Who knows what’s squirreled away out there?

Was out at Boxwell with the scouts this weekend. The deer were everywhere. So we’re the turkeys. Imagine my surprise when I tossed a bag of trash in a construction dumpster and about 15 turkeys flew out

I expect you may have something on a pig rifle that will work in a pinch - but renting a FLIR for half a day is really worth it.

There’s a reason no one let’s go of these.

I can smell that bore cleaner from here...

That’s really cool!

Neat!

This is the correct answer.

What a fun little fishing boat - that will probably fit in most people’s garage.
