One could say after the bullet holes he was ventilated & died. Therefore COVID related.

Just got my two builds back and they look great. Need to break away soon and get to the range with them. These were old school Romanian G kits with original pristine barrels FWIW all matching serials everywhere.

A couple of commie things showed up today. Sadly, NY compliant, but can’t wait to get them on the range.

Anyone think about asking the gator if it perhaps self identified as a kitten or something? We need to be sensitive to these things.

No longer at that price

@FP1201 i believe he will be with a possible guest visit from @Eddie Gunks

This was their in person price list, not sure if it has been updated. https://providentliving.churchofjesuschrist.org/bc/providentliving/content/content/english/self-reliance/food-storage/home-storage-center-order-form/pdf/HomeStorageCenterOrderForm-US-short.pdf?lang=eng

Picked about 5lbs that was ripe. Will go after more next weekend. Two different varieties, but not really much of a taste difference.

@TEOTWAWKI inc. at a minimum it’s 3 yrs. but supposedly once they get going it should be abundant. Like 50 lbs of fruit per vine.

i believe that today we will be harvesting the kiwis. Curious to see what we actually have on the vine as it’s taken many years to get to the point of being able to harvest. Hopefully photos to come later.

My plan was to use them for box opening, breaking down cardboard, etc. doing that well thus far. It stays open and closed well as it has rare earth magnets that lock the know open and closed. I don’t think I would want to do any serious processing with ithough. the smaller one with the...

Got a couple of knives from a Kickstarter I backed. Really liked the nautical look and replaceable blades.

Pretty sure it’s a liability thing for The manufacturer so they aren’t on the hook forever for a product.

Adding one more bore shot

I have a pair of black powder revolvers that I purchased used a while ago but never shot. They are both Euroarms Roger & Spencer revolvers in .44 and quite beautiful. One of them has plum coloring on the frame. One has definitely been used and there is some rust present, but it seems like it...

Good sale going on at LAPG https://lapolicegear.com/lapg-level3-plate.html?utm_medium=sms&utm_source=attentive&utm_campaign=20th-anniversary-deals---sept-2021&externalId=bYp6h Link is for the level 3, but if you can’t figure out how to find the level 4, well, maybe you shouldn’t be wearing them.

No idea, but only wanted to add this for the legislators

Got a new backpack for work the feature I bought it for was its ability to do this can hold these. Or soft if preferred. Sad that I thought that it may be a good add to work stuff

I’m willing to discuss this if they will also take up legislation requiring a 90% score on a test concerning a proof of understanding of the Constitution before being allowed to vote.

Got a few tease photos from a gunsmith. Hopefully I get to see her and her brother in a couple of weeks.

You aren’t going to find an AK for cheap. Guess it depends what cheap means though. For a solid AK I would personally budget 1k as a starting point. as for the AR, piece together something from PSA. Just saw an email from them and you can piece together and upper and lower for $400 not...

Let’s see. How could this go horribly awry?

I believe Sir that would be the little seen mating ritual of the members of Meal Team 6.

What else would one get while traveling, but a bicycle. While killing time, found a shop who actually had what I was looking for in stock along with an extension for a stem. Wrasslin’ it into the back seat of the truck sucked.

People are going to be disappointed if they wait for all stars to align at the same time.

It seems like the price of building an AR is approaching salad days costs yet again. Seen Toolcraft BCG for $85, full PSA kits well under $400 and hell, even high end stuff is reasonable (see LaRue’s complete uppers) if you were one of those folks who bemoaned the “gouging and rapey“ prices of...

@Dunedain Ranger if I do my job, I expect a 20-30 year shelf life but it gets rotated out before that. Here is a post I made a while back but stopped updating. that post was the basis of an article I submitted to Jim over at Survivalblog. It gets stored in Mylar bags with an O2 absorber added...

We made a huge batch of vegetable stew and will start freeze drying it. Should make 8+ trays which equates to around 32+ cups of stew.

https://www.thecarycompany.com/metal-paint-can-30wcg1#specifications something like this but would have to check on compatibility and food safety.

You could also look at the one gallon paint cans with the gold colored linings. Should be under $5 per can. But the cost will still add up.

And IIRC, you also have one of the Harvest Rights and the best storage solution for the food I’ve found is the Mylar bags in those storage bins pictured above

@spat if you can find them in stock and research sealing methods, Mylar bags inside a 5 gallon pail is effective https://packfreshusa.com/5-gallon-mylar-food-storage-bags/ if you happen to have an abundance of half gallon mason jars, those work as well for sugar and salt. Don’t need oxygen...

A few at midway with free shipping at $49 https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1022510661 https://www.midwayusa.com/product/2995201865

Nothing today sporting related, but rather associated with a previous part of my career when I lived and worked in Texas. Can’t find many shirts around these parts with pump jacks, derricks and mud rotary heads.

Funny timing. I turned down an opportunity on a gun due to lack of 32 rf ammo. If you are trying to maximize, probably gunbroker.

One of the better prices I’ve seen. $25 less than what they are asking for the other color options. https://www.amazon.com/Magpul-Backpacker-Stock-Ruger-Takedown/dp/B06Y47DCNX/ref=sr_1_5?crid=JMAB1JMUJ0Q8&dchild=1&keywords=x-22+backpacker&qid=1630102246&sprefix=X-22%2Caps%2C667&sr=8-5

and grabbed this off Amazon for some stupid price that I couldn’t let pass by

I’ll gladly trade a few #10 cans of wheat berries for one of the PEQ-15 and PVS-14 combos we left over there.

In general we follow this approach. Not so much with the rattlers in Texas. Seen too many dogs and livestock lost to them.

FWIW, we probably killed a dozen or so rattlesnakes when either gardening or walking the dog while we lived in S. Texas. Wifey had a dedicated gardening gun. J frame with snake shot.

I’m getting closer to having the kids back. Assembled and test fired. Looking forward to having them in hand.

New forum, who ‘dis?

Figured I’d try this on the off chance someone had one. I’m looking for an entry level mountain bike to ride with my wife. Must be for a tall guy (6’5”). Have cash, as well as trade fodder. Looking to keep it under a couple of hundred, otherwise I’d go with a new cannondale.

Welcome to the forum fellow gun enthusiast. Someone pretending to be a lawyer may be by shortly.

Hola. Como estas?

I hope they don’t keep any puppies in the shop that they are fond of.

Sadly waiting for something to put it on. Been waiting for the shipping notification for something that starts with La and ends with Rue.
