    Custom 1911 Grips. Let’s See Em.

    These are a little on the thick side but I do like em. On one of my older Springfields: And some I made a few years ago for a refinished mixmaster Colt/Rand:

    Which vehicle would you choose if you could only have one?

    Dang it, I didn't know the world was ending. I just sold my Marauder this past summer!

    What do you do about a crazy person ?

    Body cam. If you want evidence of her confrontations, its less obvious than holding your phone in your hand. I've been dealing with a bad neighbor for going on 4? years now, I feel your pain. Its frustrating, and its hard on the family.

    Luxury Watches

    My most expensive watch is a Tag Monaco I bought last winter in Vegas. I've wanted one since seeing Le Mans, just really couldn't justify it. Thankfully a bottle of bourbon while my wife was out shopping convinced me. Don't wear it that often, my daily for work is an OD G Shock, and when I'm...

    Wall Hanger - Auguste Francotte Pocket Revolver

    My only wall hanger is a Remington side by each 10 gauge. I pulled the firing pins out of it because its basically just a piece of art now, but they are socked away in case I want to take it out to burn some powder. I have a problem with the idea of rendering a firearm permanently disabled...

    Our Sheriff's Department Has a Sense of Humor

    I rented a 2019 GT this past summer when the wife and I went to visit our oldest son for his army basic graduation. Fun car! Unfortunately it had flappy paddle shifters, but it was still a good time.

    Our Sheriff's Department Has a Sense of Humor

    I'm ok with that. Hell, they should have used some of it to buy cigars too. Maybe a cool car for the arresting officer(s). Better to use it than put it in a box in the lockup.

    2019 Ford F150 Limited

    Like I said before, she has the keys to it. I likely won't drive it much other than the odd trip when she allows me. On the plus side, I have a new toy to keep me occupied. I traded my old F350 in on a new '19 at the same time, now I just have to figure out all the tech stuff it has. I...

    2019 Ford F150 Limited

    Just got one of these the other day. Has the juiced up eco boost (450 hp and the 10 spd auto). Dear Lord, this thing is fast for a pickup truck. Get your foot into it and it dangles. I shouldn't let my wife drive it but she has the key and I don't unless she lets me drive. Some things need...

    Whats your latest purchase? "guns/accessories"

    My M40a1 replica came in today, pretty pleased with it so far. Haven't fired it yet, but hoping maybe tomorrow. Slicked up and lapped action/bolt, 24 inch Rock Creek barrel with the correct USMC profile and a cerakote finish. Bedded into a McMillan HTG stock. Can't wait to get out shooting...

    2 that need to GO!

    I'll argue against shooting crows. I love those birds, and ravens too. I've been working on getting some to accept me for the last year or so. Nothing to report so far, they are a stoic creature. But I'm still trying.

    2 that need to GO!

    I don't "hate" coyotes, they are predators of opportunity. You can't fault them for that, its what they do. That being said, I know ranchers who have had coyotes come into the pasture and latch onto a calf/lamb that is being born, feet haven't even hit the ground yet. For that reason I will...

    Corner Gas

    You may be thinking of Trailer Park Boys. That one is Nova Scotia.

    Corner Gas

    Dog River is the fictional name, Rouleau is the name of the real town. Its about a half hour from the provincial capitol Regina. I was driving through the area a few years ago, after the show was done. Everything was still painted up and signs were still in place. Not much going on from what...

    Whats your latest purchase? "guns/accessories"

    I realized you can't do everything yourself, or at least I can't. I ordered a McMillan stock earlier this year and when it came in I decided I'd go for it and got the shop to build me a replica M40a1. I'm currently waiting for it to show up in the mail, hoping it arrives tomorrow. Its not a...

    Anyone else on a gun buying moratorium ?

    I am sort of. This year I only bought 2 Savage .17 hmr's, a 5" 27-2 (how could you not buy that), and recently commissioned a builder to whip me up an M40a1 clone. I did sell a pistol this week to offset things, a 7.5" Ruger New Vaquero in .45, but I already regret that.

    How long have you carried the same EDC pocket knife?

    I've been using a Benchmade Volli for a few years now, lost my first one when I left it on the shelf at Home Depot. Had to have another like it, its in my pocket no matter what I'm wearing. My right side pocket is worn on every pair of pants I own. Before I found the Volli I had a Knives of...

    A rambling question about collecting

    My wife has been telling me for the last couple years that I'm in midlife crisis mode. I would like to think I'm more like a squirrel with a short memory (and have always been like that). I might just need to rein myself in and remind myself that life is good, I have what I need, and I need to...

    A rambling question about collecting

    I think I've posted pictures of my car before but what the heck. Its a horribly beat up '55 210, it has a mild small block with a Muncie M22 and a Currie 9" rear end in it. Its kinda fun to drive, but its more scary than fun. Original drums, bias ply skinny tires out front with drag radials in...

    Angle Grinder Kickback

    Happy to hear you survived it, of course you already know all the cautions others here have voiced. As someone who has spent my entire adult life in the trades, I've heard every excuse for not using proper ppe, and I've used some of those excuses myself in all honesty. Ppe is a pain. It slows...
