Worked a couple races long ago. Made me lust over a Husky pretty badly. Unfortunately I had to eat back then and pay college tuition. Both seamed important at the time. 🤷

what is it the kids are saying? “Tell me you don’t need a car without saying you don’t need a car”. As a second vehicle I believe you can make it work, for most households. I just can’t see paying the bills on what amounts to a green talisman.

I have a P-239 SIG I routinely carry. I don’t think of it as old though, I have a hard time thinking of myself as old.

I’ve used the stuff for years, as needed. It doesn’t scare me in the least, saves time on stubborn copper and carbon deposits. Last time I went to work with it was polishing up the rails on a new stainless 1911. Mixed it into some oil dabbed it into the rails reassembled and worked that thing...

That pic was taken when I got that rig. Left my hard on leather job 30 years ago, decided rolling around on the ground was not for me after all.

3 beltman belts, black tooled, plain black (18 years old), and a tooled natural color. 1 from Nixon leather that matches a couple holsters made with Camel hide.

I’ve been running Falken Wildpeaks for the past 60k E load range on an F150. The Toyo you referenced was just enough more $ to make the decision. 42psi and they still look perfect, wearing evenly. I expect to get 10k more miles out of these.

Hella sale on Ruger MK4 today, included a Prairie Tactical can as well. Picked up a matching pair. After the turmoil I’ll return and get the paperwork completed. Wasn’t sure I needed one but left with two, how does this happen?

I take the opportunity to re familiarize myself with this stupid watch of mine.

For my purposes it’s been a Ruger SP-101 chambered in .327 Fed. I keep a few .32 longs available for grouse/bunnies. It’s light enough I’ll take it with me. If I’m elbows deep in an animal a pistol on my hip might be nice if a lion or wolf showed up. When honest about this the 32 longs are...

I’ve been shooting one for years, SP-101, and later a Single Seven. As the man said it’s bonafide 😉. Unfortunately I believe it is best suited to a reloader. Alternatively you must keep your eyes open and be ready to buy online in bulk when it comes out. Seems they make a run once a year.

Had been a bow hunter forever, but found myself signed up for an elk hunting trip. I researched enough to narrow the field and went shopping. 300WM checked all my boxes including availability. I knew what I was getting but I didn’t realize how much of it I was getting. The one wise decision I...

The gun show phenomenon.

I walked across town, arrived pretty late and paid nothing to get in. After a few “ You serious Clark’s” I left feeling like I needed a shower and a tumbler of Eagle Rare to wash the experience from my memory. I’d been warned, but the promise of cheap dream catchers and crappy beef jerky was a...

If semis are unable to move, the letter carriers have nothing to carry. It seems everything must leave town to get sorted so it can come back to town to be delivered. Our carriers are not wilting flowers, -20 check, 10” snow check, assuming the mail made it to town I guess. Herterville is...

I’ve found that putting layers in my pack is the best policy for me. I perspire like it’s my job, and anytime I start moving I need to remove layers in anticipation. Stopping means putting layers back on pretty soon if I’ve done it correctly. Minnesota can pretty unforgiving come winter.

Now prices have become asinine. I say that as someone who expects to be shooting game at about 25 yards max on a bad day. If 80 yards is the goal perhaps it takes $1800. I’ll never know.

Recently revisited these guys.

My phone is from a second area code, it certainly helps screen nonsense. By no means a stop, but I’ve got about 1 friend from that area, and seemingly 200 business associates.

Your instincts are giving you the right answer. Might come a time he feels like doing this correctly.
