    Guess they got more.  Wish I had more money. 

Don't underestimate the accuracy of the Mini-30.  Most of the poor results are due to using crappy commie block surplus ammo.  If you work up a load for it and find out what it likes, it'll be fine.

Welcome!

Glad it worked out.  Did you get the vibe that the LEO's knew him?  That might explain their complacency. 

Can you determine what part of the gun it's hanging up on?  It might be as simple has holstering/drawing a bunch of times and wearing the holster in a bit.  My crossbreed came with instructions on using a hair dryer to warm the kydex and a damp wash cloth to keep other areas cool.  Basically you warm it until it just starts to become pliable, stretch it a tad, and cool it quickly with the damp wash cloth.

    Exactly.  Only a politician could come up with a crime prevention bill that has no hope of preventing crime.

Welcome!

For hunting when there's no leaves, Realtree.  When there are leaves, most any of them work.  That said, the best camo there is.... stillness.  Learn to be still.

  Our neighbors when I was a kid had a couple.  Yep, interesting dogs. 

    I just got some from AIM, they didn't change their prices.  Looks like I got some of the last of it as they appear to be sold out of everything now. 

Basically, you do not want any holes pointed straight down.  It'll throw up dust when near the ground.  You do want as many holes as possible pointing up.  That helps reduce muzzle rise.    Swapping out a "permanently attached" muzzle device without the proper tools and skills is a recipe for disaster.  I you've never done one, get help.

Think vertical.  Buy/build some shelves above your space to keep things out of the way when not in use.

Anything that's available and not absurdly over-priced?   And tell us what that may be.     But seriously...  along the lines of old bolt guns... mausers, enfields, 1903's, ...

  I think you highly over-estimate your fellow man.  I think more people will associate the shirt with the movie "300" than anything else. 

One thing I've read about these is people intercepting the signal and using it to spy on you (or your kids).  Verify the security of the signal.

    That's one smart dog.  He's already got you believing the cats did it.

Welcome!

Cool! Though when I first saw it, this image immediately popped into my head.....

Biden will never see it.  The aide that checks his email for him will see the sender and delete it, assuming he's not already blocked. 

Here's a ton of info about them...   http://www.colt22.com/

While polishing the feed ramp may or may not do anything constructive, you can do it just to make it pretty.   If you use a dremel and polishing compound, hold the barrel in your hand.  Don't put it in a vice.  Why?  So you won't use too much pressure.  If the ramp starts to get warm, you're pushing too hard.  Just like spraying paint, constant motion is the key.  Go slow, stop and check your progress frequently. 

Nice!  Dad has a 1st series that his father bought for his sister (Dad's aunt).  It's the sport model.  A very nice little gun, if somewhat finicky.   What you've got is worth a pretty penny, so take good care of it.

    Water - learn to build a solar still.  A couple of them will yield an adequate water supply.  Add a few rain barrels and you're golden.  Food - learn to garden and can.  Hunt (or even raise) small critters for meat.  With 30 acres, I'd say you're in good shape.
