Very rarely will I dry fire any of my center fires , the rim fires I try to never dry fire. Was surprised to read in the manual for my wifes new Ruger SR-22 that dry firing it was perfectly OK . Not sure what is different about it but it does help a beginner practice more effectively 8) Being a Ruge...

First toy rifle was a Kadet trainer . Similar to http://www.gunauction.com/buy/12668027/toy-guns/kadet-trainerifle-savannah-tennessee with no but plate , or at least not now. The short section of barrel is missing , the sling is gone ,still has the wood "bullet " though. We got pulled over...

Congrats on the new pup

We had a tough cat . The second time he had a bad encounter with dogs he came home mostly soaking wet. There was a dry strip roughly at the back of his front shoulder and another just in front of his back legs , he was in a ( or several ) dogs mouth(s) and shaken at least three times. The puncture w...

Looks like time well spent .

Good reminder thanks !

I keep a small zip-lock bag of dryer link in my hunting pack for tinder because it is so easy to ignite .

I must have slept through this one. Yea, send them to me and I'll lob a 2# concrete can at them. Gotta be close though, the cannon don't have rifling. :D -----------6 I'll see what I can do Sixgun , I don't have the second plate yet . Jasper wanted hands on to see what may have gone wrong . I told ...

I've detected your tranny problems: It sez Chevy :lol: :lol: no kidding, that's a good one :D Yep, keep tellin' yerself that! And Chevy probably gets their flexplates from the same guys that Ford & Chrysler do... I got to agree with TTT on this . GM put an undersized trans in a fairly heavy veh...

Great pic !
Is Tia getting a new sibling to pass all her knowledge to ?

1894

Clearly... too much torque and a shift kit, contact Art Carr! Whatever you do with those junk flexplates... wear shooting glasses when you do it. Yep that original and unmodified 5.3 cranks out a lotta torque . :lol: Maybe Jasper put in a shift kit on the rebuilt replacement transmission I bought. ...

Thanks everyone for the replies ! Most backed up that lil' voice in the back of my head and that's why I asked so many questions. For those that thought I was looking for some long term steel to shoot at , my bad for not clarifying my intentions . If I ever do want something like that I will look in...

I will soon have 2 cracked flex- plates from a small block chevy. the first one looks like this : http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f59/littlelou66/flex%20plate/IMG_0086_zps8227922b.jpg The second one should not be as rusty as it only has 600 miles on it . The first had 58 k on it when the trans. wa...

No sympathy cards... send MONEY! And I thought I was having vehicle issues of late. I'll send money as soon as I can print some up. I think you are going to need a WHOLE BUNCH! Good luck. Brent This ^^^^^ Getting the third flex-plate put in my avalanche right now . :roll: Maybe I can get to 70 k mi...

WOW !! Great post and Pics !!

Beautiful Rifle , Great shooting , and happy to see Tia in the field as well !!

My Akita was the most beautiful dog I ever owned, and way too smart. They don't age gracefully, though, and it broke my heart. I have heard they often have mental/personality issues when they age, is that true? I know that they are one of those breeds that require knowledge and skill to own. A lot ...

Some nice tributes on that link , Thank you for sharing junkbug

In Alaska, there are too many brown bear in many places right now. The Karelian Bear Dogs are pretty impressive. They say one can hold a bear in one place, while two can move the bear where they want it. In Scandinavia they used to send them after moose - a couple of them could kill a moose. The mo...

Pretty easy to look up the serial #s vs date codes to find a year of mfg. Congrats on a nice 1894

1894

If I'm not mistaken , Marlin rifles always had a safety . Hammer at the 1/2 cock notch .
From what I've read , the x-bolt stuff started around '83-'84 .
I think that you should send that dangerous .357 to me , I'll make sure that even without the lawyer safety it will stay in a safe loving home .

For most outdoor cooking I just use the gas grill . Quick and easy .
I have dipped my toe into the world of low and slow BBQ and it's fun. Just a cheap chargriller with the offset fire box is what I have and with the help of some good forums I can usually turn out some good stuff .

1894

A beautiful rifle . The fit , finish , wood , metal , all look great

1894

John , congrats on your digestive system 8) I enjoy some heat and flavor , but have become less tolerant over the years. I have some dried / smoked serranos I use once in a while . Our current pepper crop is mostly Jalapenos , and some red hot cherry peppers. Love making ABTs with the jalops . Look ...

I think I'd want some wind flags out, since there's $$$ on the line... :wink: But for sure, I'd use my Remington 700 in Triple Deuce (.222 Rem).

.... By the way I just purchased 2 5 shot mags from Remington for a reasonable amount. So I would check them out before this run is gone if you need one. I used the same mag in a Nylon 77 and shot at least 50000 rounds through it before a friend lost it, so all the moaning of how bad the plastic ma...

Same old same old for me . Marlin . 32 , 35 , 44 .
They feel like they grew there , carry great , shoulder to point of aim regardless of if I'm wearing a t-shirt or a thick wool coat .

There have been a few " compliant " versions I've heard about. I think that the " low capacity mag " in the picture is just standard issue for to comply with current nys laws.

I don't see very many deer where I hunt either , dang " forever wild " state park .
But I know there are a lot of places that are over run with them . I just hate the politics behind blocking a useful tool for hunting .

1894

You guys must be overrun with deer like we are in Pa. The insurance companies have given the Game Commission so much heat, we can use just about anything, short of full auto to hunt deer. Here in S.E. Pa., the deer are like the way rabbits used to be back in the sixties.---6 Literally calling in th...

Included in the new state budget this year. Should have grabbed up one or two after the last bill ran out for hunting with them . Saw some good deals in the classifieds . :oops: DEC will determine the season dates , hopefully by this fall , but it sounds like at least we will have the same as we did...

86er , our regs only stipulate center fire ammo for rifle and handgun hunting . No rim fire allowed .

I waited before posting this related tangent . Related because I hate to wear gloves or mittens on my lever operating hand but numb fingers and thumb are not a safe way to operate a levergun.

I was reading a book at camp ( no one else within a couple of miles ) and had the feeling someone was reading over my shoulder . Turns out this Barred owl likes the book French Louie 8) http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f59/littlelou66/computer%20fun/camp/IMG_9672.jpg http://i45.photobucket.com/albu...

I don't think I'd have been able to stay as still and calm as this hunter ... Then again , I wouldn't need to because where I hunt bear and deer season run at the same time

I'm sure this has been posted before , but I always enjoy seeing it :
