Another snubnose revolver I may end up with is the S&W 638 Bodyguard. I have a 637 and it will outshoot many full size revolvers, at least out to 15 yards. Which is strange because it's tiny, weighs nothing, and has microscopic sights. My grandfather was a jailer for 32 years and always had a...

Why are my ears ringing?

Is that yellow John Deere a twin cylinder?

Wow, sounds like a good deal.

The saw in the title picture looks like a 540 top handle with a rear handle photoshopped onto it.

They're $539.00 new at the shop, just a bit more than a J frame.

Anybody have a Ruger LCRx? I looked at one at the shop and was impressed. Awesome double action trigger, single action was pretty good. Sights are alot easier to see than most snubbies and the front blade can be replaced. I like how it's an old school gun with all the benefits of modern...

Take off a wheel and go to an auto parts store that has a big cabinet with lug nuts of different sizes, probably a really old Napa store.

I dumped the existing fuel in all my saws into the tractor and mixed up fresh 93 octane BP with stabilizer and Husky oil at 40:1. Will try them again when things are a little less frozen. Currently enjoying the fruits of the wood harvest, burning every night. Saves electricity and love the smell!

Its really amazing just how tough animals are. Today I saw a great blue heron wading among ice chunks in the creek like business as usual.

Simmons .22 Mag is an excellent rimfire scope. I don't know if they still make it, but you should be able to find a really nice one on Fleabay for 50 bux or so. I don't know how much difference it makes in the real world, but centerfire scopes usually have a 100 yard parallax and rimfire scopes...

Me too! The Ruger American Rimfire with 22" barrel and wood stock weighs as much or more than the average center-fire, I've examined them side by side. My Savage Mk. II has a rather thick wood stock and has a nice heft to it also. I don't know if Savage still offers that stock. The Mk. II...

From what I understand, CZ went to a chitty plastic rimfire magazine that doesn't last as long as the metal mags did. My best friend had an older model CZ .17 HMR heavy barrel and that thing would outshoot most center fires.

Eee, there's your problem right there. Stay away from AutoZone parts!

My vehicles all have well over 200k on them and start doing weird chit whenever the season changes, then go back to normal. I've just come to expect it. Do you recall what brand thermostat you used? That is one part where it never pays to go cheap, I've had good luck with the Napa premium...
