    Gunsmithing Orange Vise/Area419 Collab

    My Orange Vice shipped today, quite a bit quicker than the 7/8-weeks they quoted me.

    Replace AICS Spigot with Rail

    Thanks @samb300, just ordered. Suggestion for you... There's enough people out there with older AICS stocks that would love to see a night vision bridge, as Badger has stopped making them.

    Replace AICS Spigot with Rail

    So, after going to your website, I'm not sure if my AICS 2.0 legacy stock is compatible as I've got the one with the extension out the front as pictured below, can you verify for me before I place an order...

    Gunsmithing Orange Vise/Area419 Collab

    Uber smooth, 3000-lbs of clamping force, but gentle enough to hold a priceless violin firmly (w/padded jaws).

    Gunsmithing Orange Vise/Area419 Collab

    Well, after wanting an Orange Bench Vice for nearly two years now, and missing out on one to come available in a reasonable amount of time, I committed and paid for one directly from Orange. When I called this morning to check on availability, there was a black one that was going to be...

    Firearms Benelli M1 super 90 stamped H&K

    If this had the standard (non-pistol grip stock), I'd buy it. Unfortunately, they came from the factory with the pistol grip stock, and I looked everywhere this morning, and the regular stock is Out-of-Stock. Good luck with the sale, these are awesome shotguns.

    Do I keep a gun in my "Get Home" bag?

    I had a long discussion with my State Representative (Democrat) about the last AWB, asking why Democrats always waste their time introducing bills that are unconstitutional, wasting everyone's time and money, just to have it eventually overturned by the courts. She actually agreed with me, and...

    What cars you fools have?

    One of my more recent acquisitions. 1998 Toyota HZJ105L. 1 of about 5 that I'm aware of in the USA. Initially these were only offered to Government, Military, United Nations, NGO's, etc. ...never to the public, until a few years later they started offering them to dealers in Australia...

    Chainsaw decision help...

    If you like your 260, get yourself a MS261 Pro (Non-c/m). I bought one a couple years ago, and it works fantastic. I bought it to replace an aging 026-AVS, and I use it more than just for deliming. If you want more power, and/or bar,, get a MS362 (non-c/m). Or an older MS440 Magnum, which...

    Inflation.......... ?

    Lots of factors causing the high home prices... shortage of available homes in general, more local government bureaucracy (adds costs, including more stringent building codes) in building a home, higher price of materials, higher price of land, higher labor costs, etc. etc. I sold my almost...

    Maggie’s The Woodchuck and Firewood Hoarders Thread

    The cresol built up inside the cap was like spray in bed liner, and tough to remove, lucky there wasn't much to speak of in the pipe. Screen now removed. Rope is staying put, I've got an antenna I need to put up this Summer so I can reliably hit repeaters, as the metal roof prevents me from...

    Maggie’s The Woodchuck and Firewood Hoarders Thread

    Had to climb up on my roof this morning. Last couple nights, the house was filling up with smoke every time I opened the door to the stove to load more wood into it, just enough to give me a sore throat and make the house smell like a camp fire. Found the spark arrestor in the chimney cap...
