A couple of months ago I remember reading that the president of Mexico said that he'd restrict border crossings if Biden paid him 20 billion. I wonder if that happened.

I'm on the Mobil 1 bandwagon. It works well and doesn't gum up in very low temperatures. I do quite a bit of repairs and refurbishments in addition to normal maintenance, and I'll bet one quart will last me ten years.

California's high speed rail project is a disaster. Let's throw more money at it.

Looks like a Mossberg 5M4 or similar.

I had it in my head that they were not listed as R or D, but that's not the case evidently. Got an Albany County sample ballot. Tom Marcelle it is.

I gather that a NY Supreme Court position will be on the ballot, and if I remember correctly, judges are not aligned with any political party. Any info on who to vote for?

TFB video on the Turkish gun.

After three weeks of no results due to virtually no rain, I reseeded on Monday because the weather forecast looked promising. Got a couple of good thunderstorms and by Friday I had sprouts everywhere. Don't know if these are the new or old seeds or a combination. Anyhow, all is well. Looking...

I planted a patch of radishes two weeks ago because some rain was forecast. Since then, I've had one ten-minute rain shower, and nothing has sprouted. How long will the seeds remain viable like this? Will they sprout if we get some wet weather maybe next week?

I have one on a .223. One of the issues I read about is that you need to ensure the recoil lug contacts the aluminum bedding block when the action screws are tightened down-evidently, they're not all perfect. Mine does and it shoots very well. If you want to clean from the breech without...

Rifle grenades for the British Lee-Enfield. On the left are WWI rodded types, the black one near the center is a smoke grenade. On the right is a sheet steel cradle held in position by a bayonet, with a No.5 grenade with a short rod. The later cup type discharger is hiding a No.36 grenade with a...

The deceased probably had a lung blown out.

I suspect it won't be any cheaper in the foreseeable future due to increased costs for lead and brass, plus bidenflation.

I've read that they used oversized shotgun type shells to blast whatever residue off the walls of brick kilns.

I took the survey and made my lack of support for non-lead ammo known. I don't like where this is going. Sounds like a (political) solution in search of a problem. As far as I can tell, the survey can only be accessed once, through the link in the email from the DEC.
