  1.   Gun unloaded and in the backpack should be ok. 
  2.     No kidding.  Don't like the music?  Change the radio station.  Musk has made himself fantastically wealthy selling these things to people who think they're helping to save the planet.  Since we're here, I'm assuming we're not so fortunate so perhaps he knows something we don't.
  3.     Yep, my parents live there and the little scorpions are everywhere.  We I visit, I typically see a couple dozen squished on the driveway and remove a couple from light fixtures.  They got a couple pallets of paver stone a while back and there were a good 100 scorpions per pallet.  I got stung on the finger and it felt about like a bee sting.  Thankfully it didn't swell, but it itched for a few days. 
  4. What they said. Good, snug hip belt. Sleeping bag in the bottom and heavy stuff mid/high and close to your back. Depending on how far you're walking and how much elevation, 15-20lbs sounds like a good place to start.
  5. So is this what the tannerite guy used as inspiration?
  6.     I need to do this with my old iphone.  Been thinking about it, just haven't done it.
  7.         Dirt & powder residue.   :)
  8. Not a driver's license but is a valid photo ID for any other purpose.
  9. Beltman for a good 10 years now.
  10. I go to Dr. Vines at Envision in Maryville.  He mentioned that he's worked with several high level shooters to get them what they need with regard to seeing the sights.  He's a optometrist and not an ophthalmologist, but I'm sure he can do the same for you.    http://visionsource-envisioneye.com/
  11. Sometimes we think too much when trying for a group on paper.  The conscious mind can disengage a little when just blasting targets for fun and things magically happen a lot smoother. 
  12. My buddy says his typically gets 35-40 mpg, worst mileage he ever got was around 20 fighting a 40 mph headwind out west.  He also says it seems to be common to rejet the carbs (all 6 of them! :eek:  ) way too rich, particularly when installing aftermarket exhaust.  So you might have a look into that.
  13. Cool. Valkyries are really nice, love how they sound. A buddy has one that's got somehere around 150k on it. That gas mileage does seem kinda low, I'll ask him what his gets.
  14. .... because there's a chance he might find it and get to play with it again.
  15. Happy Easter folks!
  16. I've got Coopers on my blazer and they've been fine. Lots of guys at work have their ATR's and like them.
  17. Tannerite salesman of the year. I bet you won't be able to find it in stock next week.
  18.     They used to be the cheaper option, but I'm at the point where I'd pay extra for a manual over an automatic. 
  19. I turned mine about a week ago so it'll hopefully dry out enough to till effectively.  When I tilled it last year it just turned into baseball sized clods of dirt.  I'm thinking about putting some sand on one part of it to help with the drainage/clay.  I'd like to have already planted the cooler weather stuff like spinach and broccoli, but life keeps getting the way. 
  20. From when F1 cars sounded like F1 cars. ;)
  21. The license isn't for the aircraft, it's for the pilot.  If you fly it outside, you're required to have a license.     My 8 yr old has a helicopter that's listed as for indoor use only.  The only time he flew it outside, I had to retrieve it from the roof.  It doesn't have enough power to deal with any sort of breeze.  That said, it's pretty easy to fly around the house though a gym or other large room would be best.    The controls on the quad rotors and the helicopters are basically the same.  We had the same problems as the OP at first with it, and a trip back to the store found that it had been assembled incorrectly at the factory.  Seems the blades are different and if they're in the wrong place, it won't fly at all.   Once we got that sorted, it was still waaaaay too touchy and the battery life was a joke (like 90 seconds).  So we traded that for a helicopter and he was much happier.    This is what he has: https://www.hobbytown.com/Shop/AZSH1350-Ares-Chronos-CX100-Ultra-Micro-RTF-Heli-w-Camera/   The bigger single rotor helicopters are a whole different animal from the twin rotor type. 
  22. Know your target, and what's beyond.
  23.     I resemble that remark... :)       Ever seen the EspaceF1?    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGUyIOGVa0M
