Thanks for the info. I called Brownells and they said they don't do work there. They also will not recommend nor tell you of shops in your area....I'm guessing they don't want there name associated with somebody else's work incase the work would be subpar. They give me a website of a list of...

Thanks for the info. I'll check them out.

I want to get some work done on a shotgun and need a good gunsmith in Waterloo/Cedar Rapids Iowa area. I've tried googling gunsmiths, but can't find any close enough.Those that I find are 3-4 hours or farther drive away. I would prefer to take the gun to the person & not ship it. I live in the...

I was using the Gold Bond medicated powder with no luck. Then like above I googled the same and that was what I found. I tried the apple cider vinagar(one application) and then used Lotrimine AF cream twice a day. It was cleared up in about week. One thing about the vinagar...when you apply it...

Like many others have said, you get use to and dress for it. Right now it's 1F & the wind make it's feel like -13F. The high for today is suppose to be 6F. I'm heading out in about 3 hr. to go bowhunting. Will be hunting from a treestand.....not sitting a blind. The coldest I have...

Yea Baby!!:D

Like the title says...selling a L/XL HSS Pro Series vest. Wore it for 2 yrs....NEVER had a fall. Last year I bought new harness to wear under my jacket. Good condition...the camo(Realtree) is fading a little. Will include treestrap, caribiner and deer drag/suspension relief strap....I might even...

My brother-in-law was the first to let me shoot something other than a BB gun. It was a Henry 22lr rifle. He actually taught me about shooting & hunting.

Yes, it is the same pattern.

Black coffee at home in the morning and occassionally UNsweetened tea with or without lemon. Sweet tea makes me gag. Got it in a resturant one time not realizing it was sweetened. Now I ALWAYS ask if it is sweet or not before ordering. Probably my favorite "tea" is a Long Island ice tea from...

Sometime last night/evening they changed the forecast again. They dropped the predicted crest to 15'. I just looked at the river gauge online and it appears as thought it crested about 4:30 this morning at 13.5'......1.5' above flood stage & about 10' below what they originally predicted it to...

Well they changed the forecast for the river to hit somewhere between 21' & 25' between 7pm & 9pm this evening. I'm high and dry(well the sump pump is running about every 1 1/2 minutes)...if the river gets to me the whole town will be under. Yep, know all to well about the emergency teams...

Scentblocker Dream Season Smackdown XLT jacket in Mossy Oak Infinity camo sixe XL. I bought the jacket this winter and just realized I ordered/received the wrong size. It was on sale for $99...as you can see in the pic, regular price is $130. Just want to get my money back out of it. The ONLY...

Would love to!!! This has been the wettest our spring on record. Everybody can look forward to food & gas price to rise this year. :( Many fields have been washed out, flooded and/or just didn't get planted because of all the rain this spring.

The rain just won't go away!!! In the last week it has rained right at 13" here. Last night we got 6.1". :eek: :eek: There was a line in our river shed that received 4"-6" last night. The river, that splits our town in half, has risen from 6.5' at midnight to 11.5' at 6:30 this...
