  1. [quote name='Flatwoods Forge' timestamp='1352232861' post='840236'] I'll have to wait on spending the cash on the camera and on the software. We are a one income family right now, with to many bills to count due to a stupid youth. I'm loving the advice though. All of this stuff will help. I don't really plan to make photography even a hobby, right now I just need to be able to produce quality photos that make my products look as good as possible. All of this is a lil overwhelming, I had no idea there was so much to it. Looks like I'll have to start saving for a camera, software, and a light box setup. [/quote] Your products are portable. Check around for family, friends, folks in church that can produce some decent photos for you to get started. For the price of pizza and beer, or a expertise swap (oil change, etc), you can get what you need. You may also find someone who is interested in your handi-work and your dad's place just for the photography opportunities in your collections, or the Belgian draft hoss.
  2. [quote name='Jonnin' timestamp='1352231899' post='840217'] They are nice guns. I have the plr (its the SU action in a pistol barrel and stock) and have shot the rifle SU as well. Reliable and accurate. While a good gun for the money you want to avoid shooting steel ammo in them (manual says this as well) and you want to be careful of blasting 100+ rounds through it in 5 min sort of thing (you can overheat them). If you treat it reasonably well (do not overheat and use brass ammo) it will serve you well as an inexpensive AR alternative. They are rather lightweight. Their 10 round mags do not fit into ARs. But AR mags fit the rifle, there is some small difference in their factory mags. [/quote] [quote name='OhShoot' timestamp='1352232336' post='840226'] Up to ~6,000 rounds anyway. - OS [/quote] If one is original owner with purchase papers, KT will likely replace a worn out bbl under warranty. Otherwise, the cost of replacement is still reasonable. I only know one or two persons that actually wore one out, and it was far more than 6k to do it. I have a SU-16 and a PLR-16 amongst my numerous KT's, and love them.
  3. [quote name='mudstud' timestamp='1352171107' post='839796'] wish i had some picks to put up took my son with me sunday before chruch and saw three does my son felt the need to wave at them lets just say they did not wave back [/quote] Heh. I think when I was really young I hollered out once in a while - "Daddy !! Deer!!!"
  4. I will continue to look for a job.
  5. [quote name='my82cam' timestamp='1352069478' post='839085'] I did find something out, they must have started making semiauto muzzle loaders, that or someone in the woods can reload in just under 2 seconds [/quote] [quote name='KahrMan' timestamp='1352130841' post='839364'] I don't think that is a new invention. It seems I hear those semi-auto muzzle loaders almost every year. [/quote] Just a thought; My dad and I routinely hunt together from the same stand. It is not uncommon for two guns to be on a animal from the same tree. If I miss, he won't. and - double bbl muzzle loaders are available - [url="http://www.chuckhawks.com/traditions_express_article.htm"]http://www.chuckhawks.com/traditions_express_article.htm[/url]
  6. [quote name='Sam1' timestamp='1352146400' post='839476'] Oh man you are kidding me!!! I just took all of my PMP books to McKay's in Nashville yesterday afternoon, barely got anything for them, would've much rather given them to someone. Never did take the actual PMP, but our final replicated what the actual exam was supposed to be like and the PMBOK was good for technical knowledge, but the other one we had was better at explaining the methods in an easier to understand format. No idea what the book was, but will send an email to one of my classmates and see if they have the name/isbn of it. [/quote] Thanks! Maybe you are talking about the Rita Mulcahy books. I took (and flunked by ~2 pts) the exam a few years ago. Just now getting restarted. I need to replace my books, etc. as they were a bit dated, and worse, unavoidably left behind in my old office. Hoping to have better time with it in a few months.
  7. [b] [/b] Has anyone taken the PMI Project Management Professional (PMP) exam recently (i.e. since August 2011 when they updated the exam)? What study guide & materials did you use other than the PMBOK book?
  8. I am sure adult entertainment theaters across FL are breathing a sigh of relief that their spokesman has finally pontificated.
  9. Pee Wee Herman puts his hand on politics, [url="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/peewee-herman/sandy-obama-election_b_2068783.html"]http://www.huffingto..._b_2068783.html[/url] and chooses the best frozen custard. oops. Meant to put this in P&L forum.
  10. [quote name='OhShoot' timestamp='1352066411' post='839052'] TCA 39-11-106 says: "Handgun" means any firearm with a barrel length of less than twelve inches (12'') that is designed, made or adapted to be fired with one (1) hand; - OS [/quote] Uh-oh. My Thompson Encore Pro-Hunter .308 pistol is illegal. (factory 15" barrel & pistol grip)
  11. [quote name='Lumber_Jack' timestamp='1351997436' post='838653'] Feeding deer corn is still legal, [color=#ff0000]you just can't hunt within a 250yd circle zone around the feeder or shoot into that zone. [/color]It is legal to use feeders and hunt trails leading to the feeders. Now is that what was happening here, who knows, but that's why stores still sell deer feed. [/quote] knowingly, or unknowingly. There is [u]zero[/u] room for ignorance or mistakes.....
  12. outstanding !
  13. FB was down to $19 a few days ago; hovering ~22 right now but was turning down again.. fun to pull up the chart and look at the dismal dive Still interested in who is next FB replacement..
  14. Well, that wound looks like it could be older, but all the BP's are at the polls this week....

    USPS in Farragut

    Clinton Post Office has shipped a few shotguns for me, no problem.
  16. I am curious; can you use a ultrasonic clean/lube system on the MKII or MKIII and get by without dissembling it ? I have a buddy who basically removes the wood grips on several of his guns (non-MK) and runs them through the ultrasonic. I understand from him that there are certain limitations, for example do not do anything with gold inlay.
  17. I am so short that 30 rounders drag the ground on tippy-toes.....So I shoot on a foot-stool.
  18. It is complicated, more than necessary, to the point that the opinions and understanding of field officers who enforce regs can easily differ. However, this years guide is only 72 pages, compared to last years 96 (88 year before that).
  19. I did, but no one offered me a cool sticker !!
  20. They are the same as any where else when ordered at Bud's etc.
  21. Looks like even Hillary was turned down - http://nation.foxnews.com/hillary-clinton/2012/10/26/report-hillary-asked-more-security-benghazi-obama-said-no
  22. Maybe Romney will "take the offer" & donate it to charity (in addition to his presidential salary he has committed), or maybe someone will offer matching funds.
  23. I am getting a security certificate error block msg pop-up on most every thread. Not too annoying, but noisy.
  24. Question - (I am using a Samsung Galaxy) I have hundreds of points of interest (hunting stands) stored as KML format. At home I use Google Earth, but have not been able to transfer the KMLs to Google Earth Android. Does Trimble Outdoors or the Pro versions (in Android) allow importing/exporting and storing of KML waypoints and points of interest?
  25. "Obama Bin-Ladin" heh.
