    Valid point @dsdmmat. Could be that primed brass with no bullet or primer is now considered a SBR.

    Economics of home freeze drying. My very limited experience

    You still have to cook raw foods. Freeze drying doesn’t kill the bacteria, just puts them into some sort of Han Solo type stasis. So when you rehydrate it, they will still be there and ready to do their thing. something like freeze drying raw eggs gives you more flexibility than cooking...

    Economics of home freeze drying. My very limited experience

    Just pulled out the raw, breaded tenders and put one aside to rehydrate and see how it does. As expected, out of the FD they are bone dry and devoid of moisture content. For packaging they go into 7 mil mylar bags and they sealed up with the impulse sealer that comes with the price of the...

    Economics of home freeze drying. My very limited experience

    @OwnTheRide you are correct. bit of a method to our madness up front. For the first few runs, we want to remove us as the issue. Doing the precooked/prepared helps. i will be curious to see what the total cost is when we do bulk raw product as there are several steps we would want to take...

    Also, as a heads up, the CAT TQ is on sale at LAPG if you buy 3. Code is CAT2199 and reduces the cost to 21.99 each. Good through 2/4.

    I’m a simple person when it comes to the kit I carry on me. It’s designed for stopping bleeding. The boo boo kit is in the car and at home. It’s a shear, TQ, compressed gauze, chest seal x2, nitriles and I threw in an emergency blanket for shock. Only thing not pictured is the mini sharpie...

    Hello fellow firearms enthusiast and welcome to our forum where we have discussions on topics such as cooking, snow removal and our wood working hobbies. You may be better suited at an AR specific forum where they would have many more enthusiasts who might have experience with that sort of upper.

    Automatic AR-15 Exploding [video]

    I believe that is the largest danger, the 300 will chamber in a 556 without an issue. Article Here and here too main reason for me that I didnt want to get into 300BO. I’m enough of an idiot normally and didn’t need to add to my odds of something going poorly.

    The ice cream sandwiches and yogurt are done. This batch won't make it into storage either. They will be snacks for the next few days. This is 2 ice cream sandwiches and a quart of yogurt. Both are really tasty, but I prefer the tang and creamy texture of the yogurt. Uncooked chicken...

    Economics of home freeze drying. My very limited experience

    @Criticalt we use a dehydrator as well. We do like the Excalibur and have gotten lots of use out of it. There will still be things we use it for, like sliced tomatoes as those don't do well in the FD. Making tomato powder is a different story. Definitely FD is the way to go there.

    Back to the economics for a minute. The chicken was picked up from Sam's club since we were there and was 12.98 per 4lb bag and we got two. We ended up packaging it into 6 mylar bags and used six oxygen absorbers. Including electric cost, total cost for this batch was $34.96. The final...

    Davis trade in Reputation

    That pretty well lines up with most gun shops. If you can find a mom and pop they may work with you more on a trade value for something that has been on the shelf longer as they have much more skin in the game vs a regular salesman type collecting their hourly wage.

    And the chicken is out. While you could eat it straight as is, it really sucks the moisture out of your mouth. The color in the middle of the nugget is from the bread coating. These things are dried out. The sample one rehydrated surprisingly well, put it in the air fryer for a few minutes...

    Is buying a Revolver that can use Moon Clips worth the cost ?

    I will respectfully have to disagree on the size. I can easily pocket carry the LCR, not the G19. As for the recoil, I haven't shot the 9mm LCR and I don't carry full house 357 loads for carry. I understand that the recoil maybe a bit much for some folks hands, but it should depend on what you...

    Did a gallon of pickles since the wife liked them so much. Turned into 1/2 gallon plus 1 qt Mason jar. Just put in 8 lbs of cooked chicken. We shall see how long this takes and then how it does afterwards.

    I say the FNFAL is the greatest battle rifle of all time. Prove me wrong.

    I say the FNFAL is the greatest battle rifle of all time. Prove me wrong.

    Ill throw out a couple of thoughts. The collapsible stock on the HK91 is probably one of the most uncomfortable cheek welds I have ever experienced. Having shot the FAL, a G3 and a M14 using a giggle switch, I found the FAL as the most controllable. To be fair, I had minimal time with M1A or...

    I say the FNFAL is the greatest battle rifle of all time. Prove me wrong.

    Wanting to start a gun thread here, go figure. My position (as you can guess, slightly biased) is that the FNFAL and its variants are the greatest battle rifle of all times. The definition that I am using for a battle rifle is an autoloading military service rifle chambered to fire a fully...
