20153134.JPG What? What were you thinking? top is 1/4 inch preform for S-hooks. length for scale is 7-1/2 inches. will keep it this way as a template for when I forget how to make em'. again. the twist is tight because I used spot heat and turned it as soon as it released. that's two complete turns...

My exact thought. Someone left a Wagoneer parked next to a Scout and shazaam, a Scoutoneer

The paint scheme is nauseating.

I was buying 22 ammo on a regular basis back when it was $8.00-$9.00/brick. I kept buying it at that price because I knew it would go up in price eventually. It seemed like 20-30 years it stayed at or near those prices and I kept buying more than I was shooting to hedge against the eventual price i...

shoot 9mm

Grizz

yup. like mine. love the way it sounds, kind of like all the parts are in there on purpose.

Grizz

thanks so much for the maps. that helps quantify it. it's only 4000 miles to your town, it has me thinking. ouch. ow.

yeah, I'm all for the new ride for you. I hope that comes together. your flock deserves it too.

There, I fixed it for you.

sounds like they could eat the entire town and not make a dent in the problem

Hey, I vaguely resemble that, uh, what was I saying

Paul, that's fantastic. It's like it's a jungle out there :!: :shock: What kind of wild life do you see in your travels? I was expecting a panther to pounce on me from one of the cliffs. Would you mind putting a pin on a map so we can see the road and terrain? I like your bike. What about just putti...

been a tea-totaler for a long long long time, but perhaps I might just once tip a Spitfire in honor of your Dad and all the brave lads who fought that fight, before I go west.

thanks for posting

Grizz

Grizz

that's inspiring thanks

Grizz

That's Brutel

Grizz

Doc, not to put too fine a point on it, the number would be 1/100,000,000, which makes your point several orders of magnitude more bigger.

Grizz

is that 3 cylinders?

wasn't that built when there was a national 55mph speed limit? 85 might have been a tongue in cheek top end to keep the clients safe from car 54.

dear O dear.

run a hose from the truck exhaust into the burrow system. start truck. simple, eh?

I answer all those questions with NOYB. When they whine I laugh and ask, "you do believe in choice, don't you? I choose not to tell."

Grizz

May I please have the red one? Thank you. The front suspension is a work of art. Could it be called a trailing link? Or is it a leading link? I promise to keep him in the house when I'm not riding, and to pedal going downhill once in a while, and not to race Blaine on logging roads. Sincerely, Grizz

Nice pair. But Dude, you have a lot of 'stuff' bolted to that pistol. Still, the 90 round test is no problem.

Maybe I'm a little too old fashioned....never could see the reason for a blackout. well, you built one. so let's try this. put it in your car on the console. park in a safe spot. start the stopwatch. and tell us how long it takes to get 90 rounds on target out the right rear window. then we can tal...

Grizz

OK.

how much ?

Grizz

Grizz

that's a good report. shooting to the right? ask a couple of people to shoot it and see how it goes. also, check the alignment from the muzzle end. sometimes they are cranked a little. I have a model 66 that has the best trigger, single action, of any gun I have ever owned or shot. it's like, when I...

Grizz

Just to keep the discussion going: I thought we already decided that FPE was not the be all, end all? Like 45-70, eh? I think it's relevant in this case because it's comparing similar pistol cartridges. It will make a fair comparison of hollow point performance over the caliber range, but it doesn'...

w30wcf

what kind of velocities are you getting with those short range 30s?

sounds like pre-300 BLK performance. I wonder how those cast bullets would work in the whisper?

Grizz

far easier to hit the gopher with the 45 than the 223, it's a BIG BULLET, how can it miss?

good shooting and nice to see the young one learning to appreciate the facts.

r-65 is electric start. guess what konked out after detailing everything and putting it all back together... bosch :roll: 5 speed box. no kick start. the side-wise kick starter was one of the most civilized features of the older airheads, but they swapped it for the top gear. not all that brilliant ...

I like my http://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/Gallery/BMW%20R65%2079.jpg It needs some TLC now.

After reading up on the Royal Enfield I hope it makes sense that I looked at Velocettes because I once rode one in NYC. So I watched Jay Leno riding his Velo and that was a hoot, as I looked at the Royal Enfield pictures, vingage rides, they led me to watch some Norton Manx videos, a bike I always w...

very classy and classic ride. I'm looking forward to the rider-report!

Grizz

they should just issue XDs and get over it.

Here's the knock-knock installation. I'm liking the shadow detail.

I turned the striker around 180 from my sketch. Like the detail better that way, sounds the same.

That looks SO GOOD. Gotta love the old-timers that never lose their usefulness or style. Good job on a real squirel-gun.

We have a significant moment coming up and I am gift wrapping some things... 20153040.JPG 20153039.JPG The outside hooks hang from drifts thru the vine loops.

I can't speak for RE, but if I were in your shoes, I'd STRONGLY consider a used Kawasaki KLR650 in good condition. Built like a tank, parts can be found anywhere on Earth, they can haul a metric ton of stuff, and they're simple machines. Riders run them flat-out across Baja and to Dakar every year....

Grizz

I haven't shot with the angle sights. Think they are foolish, but I saved 200$, so what's not to like? The one diss on my rifle is the gas block is not at the height of the receiver top, so special parts required. I'm looking at using an M4 sight block and clamping it onto the front end of the barre...

from reading the thread it seems the "solution", if a 14" krinkov pistol won't suffice, is to use the AR-10 receivers and uppers, with a magwell adaptor that accomodates AK magazines. big bolt, big magwell, with the right barrel extension, not M4, it might go together and run the x39 ...

Looks like it's working good Grizz. Time to do some mag dump/changes and wring it out. Is that the scope/mount combo someone posted in another thread? I was interested in that for a interim setup. I think it's the same scope. It was recommended here. Took a long time to find a serviceable cheap sco...
