I'm hoping the funding they have gets used more wisely from this point on, but I still have concerns about them adopting a more aggressive stance to anti-2A legislation and statutory creep. Their laissez faire attitude has almost made them irrelevant in my opinion. Can they regain relevancy...
Older Chapman pirogue with wooden gunwales, 14ft. I doubt it has ever been used, but has been kept undercover it's entire life. $450 in the Baton Rouge/Hammond areas.
I've had good luck with anything CCI and Yellow Jackets in all 22 firearms. My CZ's don't seem to care what I put in them though and shoot nearly as well with the worst bulk stuff.
Some 270 Win reloading components left over from my father in law. In the Baton Rouge or Hammond areas.
Barnes 140gr TSX boattail - 39 count
Hornady 150gr SST - 72 count
Winchester NOS brass - 33 count
Loose brass some once fired, some twice - 128 count

Modified on one shotgun is not necessarily the same as mod on a different gun. If I was having no luck with modified, I'd try Improved to see if it made any difference. Certainly I would pattern the guns with different chokes to see the shape and density of their pattern. Had a shotgun years...
I was at CMP a few months ago and got to see a Garand that was recovered in Afghanistan. Still covered in desert dust. CMP is probably the biggest milsurp source left. Royal Tiger Imports has some stuff and you'll see a few K31's and Swiss Lugers coming in in small batches through different...
Back in the previous century when I was a backpacker, my go to was Lipton butter noodles with a can of Swanson chicken and Tony's. Got me in trouble though. One week the kids didn't like what she was fixing a few nights in a row so she said you cook. I made backpacker stew and they licked the...
The value of these rifles is all about the quality of the work done on it. The base action is an excellent one for a custom build. After that it's quality and condition of the barrel, stock wood, and craftmanship that went into it, and finding someone who wants it. Likely there are no caliber...
Not really an expert and not enough pictures, but it looks like a nicely sporterized 1908 DWM Mauser manufactured for Brazil. A lot of them were used for custom builds back in the day. It was made by DWM, but it is a sporterized Brazilian military Mauser in my opinion.
Looking for a Yugo M59/66a1 in original configuration in very good condition. Besides cash, I have some potential trade items if interested including Cold Steel and Bugei katana (never used and sharp), or a Llama 32acp Especial (mini 1911). Preferably in the southeast , south central parts of...
Lately I've become interested in why tomahawks were developed. Obviously, they were used as weapons, but so was everything else up to and including sharpened sticks. Wiki says they were invented by the Algonquin's as a general purpose tool. It had to have a lot of utility for them to go...
We did the Rhine river cruise. It's pretty regimented and different than ocean cruises I'm told. You have a stop every day in a different city; some better or worse than others, but you get a broad flavor of several countries. That said, if you want to hit a lot of the highlights and sleep in...
Did a Viking river cruise and liked it. Probably wouldn't like an ocean cruise.
As far as germs, when I was 7 my mom took us 3 houses down to play for a few hours so we could all get chicken pox.
