My 4yo with my first deer rifle. I bought it with my summer earnings in about 1994. I guess dad bought it with my summer earnings, I wasn’t even 10 yet. I added the BDL trim and threaded the muzzle later on. I can’t wait until she kills her first deer with it too.

I bought my first gun at the age of 14 in 1993 (mom did the paperwork). It took me 7-1/2 months of neighborhood yard work and house sitting etc... My first rifle looks a lot like yours, but I've kept it in stock form. Smoothest factory action I've ever felt. .30-06.

Hope your girl kills a ton of deer with that.

Looks like a Remington Mdl 700 BDL, bought mine in '74, in .270. Sold it recently since I had no one to pass it down to. With old Redfield 3x9 sold it for 3x what I paid for it.

Yep, my scope is a Redfield Golden Five Star in 3x9x40. Glad you got many years of memories out of yours, and we're able to make some money off of it too.

I remember that mine ran me $469, and the the scope $185. Rings and base were another $35, and my dad bought me the Pachmayr recoil pad.

I weighed a whopping 120lbs, and that rifle kicked the snot out of me due to zero idea on how to drive it. Got a nifty scope cut one time too. Dad figured I was going to be a poor shot my whole life.

Went into the Marines, and paid Pvt Pyle-like attention during grass week. Learned how to shoot from my PMI (Primary Marksmanship Instructor), and even had old CWO2? Dennis Demille (of 6.5 Creedmoor fame) work with me on the firing line. Long story short, I ended up doing well and became a PMI myself a few years down the road. Shot a few higher level service rifle matches here and there. Retired still occasionally doing Combat Marksmanship Trainer work for deploying companies in my Battalion.

25 years later and I finally bedded the action and barrel pad, and developed a handload for it. Went from a 3 MOA rifle with factory Remington 165gr Core-Lokt (mostly 14 year old shooter error) to a 1/2 MOA rifle with 178gr AMAX. Darn thing is a laser.

Thanks to you two for bringing back fond memories of my youth this morning.

I got the ADL, it was around $300 at the time. Put a cheap tasco scope on it and went hunting. I ended up selling it to my dad around 2000 and bought a 1969 30-06 BAR. That gun was never my favorite but it was cool. I’ve long sold the BAR. I kept trying to buy my .243 back but he wouldn’t sell it to me because he liked it so much. I was ok with that knowing I’d get it back at some point. He did say he’d trade me for a BDL just like it if I wanted it bad enough. One year for his birthday I snagged a BDL stock and bottom metal off the hide and upgraded it for him along with the seekins base. After my daughter was born he took his scope off and gave me the rifle for her. I played musical scopes again and stuck a Bushnell 6500 2.5-16x42 on it with some BO rings. That’s a fantastic scope for not a lot of money if you can find a used one now. I got mine on Amazon for under $300 sick deal for a new one. I knocked the barrel off behind the front sight screws and threaded it for the Harvester. I can’t wait until she gets to shoot her first deer.

You sold you dad a 300 dollar gun for $2000? I don’t know whether to hate you or hire you to be my main sales manager in a new business I would start.

No, in the year 2000.

Why flood here with video after video from twater? If I wanted to know what was there, Id join.

I am trying to add levity to a world of otherwise moribund and disheartening reality. Don't like it, put me on ignore, and my butt won't be hurt in the slightest. I don't even belong to twitter myself, just trying to share the "cute" or "fun" stuff. Go back to Motivational thread and/or put me on ignore.

I don't 'do' Twitter and I thought that the videos were quite good to watch.

Do you know how expensive a real pair of lederhosen are?

Is that the excuse you have for wearing panty hose ?

I think the last time I owned and wore lederhosen was somewhere around the age of 5.

This is my wife’s first deer rifle. I bought it for her about 9-10 years ago and she killed her first deer with it that season. Marlin 336Y.

Sorta weird that I see this post today......just finished the spread sheet to put in the safe w/ my will identifying who gets what when my time is up. I got a Rem 700 BDL chambered in 30'06 for a wedding present (1975) from my mother. She paid $150 for it. Bought at a pawn shop in small West Texas town. Serial # indicates it was 1960's vintage. Fast forward to 1982. Bought a second Rem 700 BDL new in 7RM. Paid $299. Bought a Lupy 3.5x10xx44 for $350. Nearly had a heart attack at paying that much for a scope. Still have both rifles and the scope. Killed my first pig w/ the '06 and my first elk w/ the 7RM. Shot the barrels out of both (3000+ rounds over the years). Millions of $$ worth of memories... Two oldest grandsons have asked dibs on them. You couldn't pay me enough to buy them. Thanks for kindling the memories today!

That is why you use Fyrquel in high temperature hydraulic systems.

Cool. Never heard of it before.

Cool. Never heard of it before.

Almost all the the steam turbine power plants use it. The hydraulic actuators fire the stop and control valves would turn into flame throwers on a leak when the steam lines and turbine are 500+ degrees. It is nearly like brake fluid, it will remove paint from anything it touches and it's slick as hell.

Every hot metal environment I've ever worked in used water glycol for hydraulic fluid specifically to avoid this kind of incendiary outcome.

This is what happens to a stock 5.0 block when exceeding 600 hp on a regular basis. All of a sudden you will have a loss of oil pressure with only the intake and oil pan holding the block together.

Nobody cares. They make the best blades.

Spineless, lazy mutherfuckers with no principles don't care. FIFY!

Allowing bullshit like this to stand is why companies think they can push all this woke bullshit down our throats.

You're wrong. Some care, and I wouldn't use their blades now even if they were free.
