lovemywoods and I have hosted around 100 different INGOers at his private range over the years and we've never had any major issues like the one described in the OP. I think this issue is the exception and not the rule.

im probably sitting right around 75-100 myself

SACRILEGE!!! BLASPHEMY!!!! Platinum should only be used to surround multiple large (over 2k) diamonds in ladies rings! Anything else is a Mortal Sin!

 

[Mr.JAG]

Has the OP at least checked the user profile of this guy? That will at least tell him if he has been on INGO recently....

that is what makes the scrap cat worth so much..

 

[Mr Evilwrench]

Cats are basically platinum coated glass balls. That's why people steal them. The platinum never goes away, even when the cat degrades, and there's a couple hundred dollars' worth in there. It has to be there because the .gov sez so. Your tax dollars, as well as some other of your dollars, at work.

I can't imagine being presumptuous enough to avail myself of your property without specific permission. That's what I'd expect of someone. And if I got stuck like that, I'd be standing there next to the thing waiting for you, apologizing and offering to make it all right. Does this guy seriously think he's going to dodge this? There are all kinds of VINs and license plate numbers that are going to go straight back to him.

You're safe! I like you Gamez, especially when you ignite your AK forend and other unusual stuff!


I do hope people reading this thread don't make a decision to not share their property just based on this one incident. Whether it's land or your firearms (especially NFA goodness), your knowledge, or your time, INGO members are a great group of folks. I've seen many generous acts done by INGO members. Don't let this one episode change your point-of-view!

Epic thread def need pics soon!

Don't count on it. Just sayin. The member who had his property violated is a man of honor, and will deal with this as he sees fit.

I just clicked next 17 times and will fall asleep without knowing the end of the story. Paul Harvey would never stand for this.

big tractor and a tow strap......oooops sorry about removing your front (rear) bumper

LOL..... I pulled a buddy out who had his truck buried to the doors in a rut.
Wouldn't move so I took a running start...... peeled the bumper like a sardine can.

I actually seen a guy try to pull out a truck buried to the axle by attaching to the right side frame only. He got a good 15 foot run and when he hit the end of the tow strap, there was nothing but noise and exhaust smoke from the diesel. Throws it in park and when the diesel exhaust cleared, the stuck truck had moved, but not out, only up on the right corner.

Yup, that's right, he warped the stuck trucks frame so bad that there was a 1.5 foot difference. Wish I had a camera that night.

How did I ever survive before cell phone cameras?

Yeah I've seen guys try to get in pulling competitions and hook the chain to their rear axle. Then proceed to get the axle pulled out from under the truck. Idiots are out there, watch out for them!

OP I'm sorry to hear about your situation. I really hope it gets straightened out soon. This is why I will only let people I know well enough that I trust them on to my property. Otherwise, nope not gonna happen. I'd bet money on it that a good tractor could pull it out without much problem.

OMG, that's just stupid. That's like four 3/8 inch U bolts, even if they hold a rear axle alignment would be in order at LEAST.
