  1. Remember to not let TWRA catch you using center-fire, or larger that .25 caliber on small game such as tree rats and other "non-furbearers & crow". Not that it makes any sense, It is not legal in Tennessee to hunt with those. Dispatch of nuisance wildlife on your property may be a different matter.

  2. Discovered I had a open bleeder resistor on the high voltage supply to a radio amplifier.  I didn't know I could jump backwards 20'+ in the process of blowing a hole into my finger.  Fortunately, the concrete wall behind me stopped my head.   In another amplifier incident, I discovered how to make a bank of HV electrolytic capacitors invert themselves like very noisy sea-cucumbers. My ears still ring after 20 years.   My stupidity was not limited to my adult years.  When I was seven, I learned how NOT to cut a marsh-mellow stick off of a tree (hint...grip the tree *below* the hunting knife, not above).
  3. I tried to apply, and got sent to the On-line Obamacare Waiting Room.  Seriously.   They can't even do basic IT.
  4. Please tell me you are not the pilot!!
  5. They wither into 9mm Hi-Points
  6. OK, I want to learn about these critters.   Contingent on there being a local to 37716 (ex. Clinton, Oak Ridge, Knoxville area)  FFL & reasonable transfer fee,   I am in for -     1 Lower.  and possibly an upper if I can afford it.    I will need someone to teach me all things AR-assembly   *please, someone PM me the price on the uppers (I already know it for the lower)
  7. Still, there has to be quite a story on that one, including your addendum.
  8. He shares responsibility.
  9. Here is a beautiful example showing photos of all the matching numbers (several locations)..http://home.comcast.net/~gunspotz/1851colt.htm   Here is another, in your serial range - http://www.antiquearmsinc.com/images/Colt-1851-Navy-Revolver-california-gold-rush-civil-war-sam-colt-3rd-model-not-squareback/Colt-1851-Navy-Revolver-california-gold-rush-civil-war-sam-colt-3rd-model-not-squareback-7.jpg
  10. 301019? Hard to see in the pix, but looks like six digits
  11. The serial number (if still there under the corrosion) is on the forward part of the trigger guard, right behind the screw that attaches the guard     http://www.collectorsfirearms.com/colt-1851-navy-revolver-u-s-marked-serial-number-90645-c7213/
  12. This site lists the serial # ranges from Colt  (and I sure Colt has it as well)   http://www.vincelewis.net/coltnavy.html
  13. Google Electrolytic Rust removal - Here is one example using Rebar and baking soda  http://www.ehow.com/way_5534328_electrolytic-rust-removal.html
  14.   and that guy wasted tax $ today.
  15. this. (and I OC when I want to)
  16. and ties up two NM state troopers just so he can take a tour.........     You know, it is lawful, but when there is no real purpose, at least have the decency to call ahead and also offer to reimburse expenses.   Maybe bring a small group to meet with your legislator too.   http://www.kob.com/article/stories/S3172245.shtml?cat=500
  17.     I don't know about good way, but at least it don't scrape off too quick.  Plenty of texture & character.
  18. I remember seeing a similar photo from/at LBL a year or so back.
  19. All five of those leaves are the same size . Ginseng 3 large, 2 small. That is poison oak?
  20. R_Bert

    Check this out..

    I'm guessing the warranty on that thing is voided?
  21.       About a year ago, there was an outfit started up on Hiwassee Avenue in Knoxville, East Tennessee Ammunition, LLC, but their website has disappeared. Still a few references on Manta, etc.
  22.   If it has the breech plug, then pull the plug out and shove the rest out the back end with the ram-rod/jag.  That's what I do on my T/C Encore ML.   Blow the crumbs / powder out with an air hose, then wash & clean as normal (it probably needs it anyway).
  23.   I stay away from day care centers,  Toddlers with guns frighten me.
