The wife normally doesn't make mistakes but when she asked why she has to fool around changing batteries in the flashlight for walking the dog at night... she knew she messed up! Didn't find USA sourced flashlights in a configuration I was looking for so I settled on one that was at least...

Back in 2000 the Tundra was made in Princeton Indiana. It was the first Japanese full size truck to be made in America. I can't cite the percentages, but at the time I believe Tundra rivaled domestic trucks for American content. It was several years later that Toyota moved things down to San...

I kicked tires on new trucks for over a year (drove my wife nuts which was a bonus) until I found exactly what I wanted. Back in 2000 Toyota came out with a new truck called a Tundra. I test drove it, looked at all the available options, chose the one I wanted and purchased it that day. It was...

If you've shopped around and have decided that new Nissan truck is the vehicle for you, is competitively priced and you can reasonably afford the payments, buy it. Here are "horrible ideas". -- Buying a new vehicle that isn't what ya want or doesn't well serve your needs then wanting to...

Being from California myself... I understand the frustration. As far as gun enthusiasts in general, I've seen a great deal of what I consider less than supportive 2A sentiment. From universal background checks to mandatory training and licensing to carry... on and on. Gun enthusiasts come in...

Standard thread pitch is 1/2 x 28 and .625 long. You'll need to use someone who knows what they are doing and they'll already know correct threading requirements for an AR15 and cut concentric to the bore. Threads not being nitrided isn't an issue. If you don't know of a qualified operation in...

Gemco! Yes, I remember the book. I had to sign my name and address when buying .22s. I was a youngster, maybe 14 or so. Was there an age requirement back then? Thanks for the pleasant flashback.

Hey Bob, IIRC, a pencil eraser is what I read in a USMC TM provided with my first AR purchased a couple decades ago. Reading about how the rifle operates sure helped me avoid a lot of frustrations I see on these forums. --------------------- For anyone interested, publications like these...

It's not about 'ignorance' of those living outside of California. This is about Californians making themselves difficult to do business with. The OP was back in 2011. Since then Californians have only made themselves more difficult to do business with. And it's not just anti-gun politicians...

Was he the rebranding genius?

Nice.... :cool:

Coondog doesn't appear overly stressed during her first Tennessee blizzard.

Yeah, we're getting a light dusting here which means a general panic in Chattanooga. This doesn't bode well for my wife's Christmas package that has fallen into the SmartPost black hole abyss between our new local FedEx terminal and Post Office located about a mile apart from each other and...

Hey Guys There's been a lot of threads in the Concealed Carry and Self Defense section about modified triggers and possible legal complications. They're usually contentious discussions and don't end well. Let's keep things in this section more focused on the rifle rather than courtroom.

FixNics? Pull the plug.

Average Joe looking in from the outside... I think most any group of enthusiasts look a bit whacky.

Recently changed things around in the office. Wanted to use a new Samsung TV that only had an optical 'out' for sound with one of my older receivers that had no optical input. Got this at Amazon for $12. Seen the same thing at BestBuy for $30. Digital optical cable (included) goes from the TV...

It did. LaRue is great to do business with. "I can't wait, gotta have it now" price for the trigger is $199. "I got plenty of time" price is $125. Holiday price was $99. I was surprised that it shipped so quick. Ordered on Thursday, Thanksgiving day. Shipped just six days later Wednesday. I...

^^^^ this. A guy would have to hide under the bed curled-up in the fetal position to avoid doing anything a zealous prosecutor might try to use against him. Don't overthink it. Know and obey the law.
