      Snowmageddon!

      I did groceries on Sunday afternoon. Fired up the snow blower yesterday (I do like the extension cord hook up for the first start in a while) after pulling/checking the plug and filling the tank. Cranked over the old CJ-5 this afternoon just because it's so much fun in the big snows and it...

      Gun Show Thread

      I enjoyed the 36-45 mins it took to walk both buildings with Hopper on Saturday. Looked like a 60/40 split of firearms related/actual firearms. Lots of AR parts if that is your thing. There were a few tables of private collections as well. I just didn't take enough cash!

      WTS/WTT: CZ P-01 SOLD!

      CZ P-01 w/ NATO Stock Number, 2 15rd mags and a 1791 Holster...$575.00 I put 200 rounds through it for a class with no problems. Southside/Greenwood location, though I do routinely travel around Indy and the donut counties for work so some flexibility on a meeting location. I would like to see...

      Reeder Custom Guns

      Nice Magyars! That is really the look I am going for, just less the ejector rod...no real reason, the ejector rod-less Colt SAA's have always just looked cool to me. The single six platform, 'reduced' with 22lr/22mag and better fixed sights would be a neat update on the theme.

      Reeder Custom Guns

      Ok...I know I asked about Reeder Custom Guns, but is there anybody locally who can do this type of work? Looking at doing a Sheriff Model style revolver on an older single six. 2.75" or so barrel. I like the look of the Heritage Barkeep as a start but think done well on a single six platform...

      What's everyone doing about lower back pain?

      TRX...low impact, lots of core. Your body weight and foot position determines the resistance. I have also recently added a little kettlebell to the workout. 1-2 times a week with some off day stretching as well. I partially herniated my lowest disc almost 23 years ago. The core work really...

      Do you own a firearm chambered in .22LR?

      Hmm.... 4 rifles, 2 pistols, and 3 revolvers. I think I need another to make it an even 10!

      Any Jeepers in here?

      I've got the max tow package option, so 7700# tow rating and the heavy duty, wider Rubicon axles with 4.10 gearing. The CJ as of now sits at about 3500# and the trailer at just over 2000#. I don't use 8th gear at all and try not to exceed 65 or so. Not always a quick trip but still faster...

      The official Status update thread #227. Lets see what 2022 has in store for us

      I was much faster 35 years ago back in high school! Not so much today. That's why I carry...just to buy a little more time to git!;) The reality is that last year was pretty crazy in the landscape industry and I just didn't keep up. Trying to be a little more active now!

      Bug Out Bags 101

      jsx...thank you for that. I remember one of the responders helping had actually taken ahold of my daughters shoulder to move her along a little more quickly. He almost got cold-cocked from behind before I realized he was helping. We were all pretty confused. I only yelled at him a little...

      Is it ok to celebrate my 50th post? A chocolate malt from Steak & Shake sound good!

      Bug Out Bags 101

      9 years ago we had 3 idiots try to blow up our neighborhood. Scariest night of my life. We were hustled out of our neighborhood in our pj's, leaving a lot of vital stuff unattended and initially unprotected. LE did secure the neighborhood but we learned a few lessons. We now have an E&E Bag...

      New S&W SAO compact

      That comparison really brings out the ugly in the Shield, and I can understand the trigger dingus to satisfy the lawyers. I think I like it, but I carry a Springfield 911 9mm...

      Any Jeepers in here?

      Talked about my Jeeps a couple of times, figured it was time for a family pic. We've hit the Put-in-Bay Jeep Invasion the last few years...it's a pretty good party!

      What new firearms would you like to see developed?

      A scaled up NAA revolver shooting a straight wall .25 centerfire? Similar case length to a .32 long. Needs to be kept smaller than the old Remington Pocket BP revolvers. And maybe Ruger could do a Bearcat with a 5" barrel for it?

      Thank God for Carharrt

      I have a couple gifted by employers from the mid to late 90's...they are showing some wear right at cuff/sleeve. Got a nicer, finer material Carhartt for client meetings and such. Snap off hood. This one was made in Mexico.

      Handgun for Nephew's 21st?

      S&W 929? Would be nice to have ammo commonality with his Glock i a revolver platform.

      What gun stuff did you buy today?

      Looked hard at an NAA Anti-venom in 22mag at a Noblesville shop...nice little revolver but not a fan of the theme. Still looking...

      Rotary dials, small town party lines, and woods walks with my Dad and his Ithica M49, and a 50 count box of shorts....my intro to .22's leading upt to my Glenfield 25 at age 13.
