nice, I haven't done a savory pork butt in a while and i think its time, I'm tired of the overly sweet rubs for now.

The new reloading center is, for the most part, up and running. Still need to build a wheeled cabinet to hold the tool boxes, that's a future spring project.
Over the years I've accumulated a small collection of vintage shooting stuff, but never had a decent spot to display them. The bottom shelf of the center has been designated the museum.
I miss the old time small town gun shops, filled with smoke, old and young shooters and tall tales. Wish I could have bought every $400 pre-64 M70 and beat up Rem 721 in those gun racks.

Now that would be cool. I do have a old box of R-P 222 Mag ammo, apparently many years ago somebody bought it and tried to chamber a round in a .222. He returned the box to the store with a hand written note, "Doesn't fit in rifle". Always good for a chuckle.
Trying to make room for one of these..
I have several, one for each of my favorite cartridges. Slow, tedious, but the ammo goes bang.
How old is that .30 carbine ammo? Have never seen that before.

My view isn't going to be half way as cool as tnickles post of bloody Fuckin shit up dead.
Very cool dude.
Finally got the front of the building framed up and after a little metal trim, it will be ready for the metal siding.
And let me tell you, this shit of getting old is for the birds, I could have had that wood up in one night vs two. But Damn, doing shit solo will wear a brotha out these days.
now let's see how long I can milk the back end out.

Or one of these M1 30 Carbine Boxes (Full).?
And a unopened stick of .45 Cal. built in 1917 for WW1!
Cool collections Guys!
Crap, the M1 Carbine Ball box isn't in the damn pic. Anyhow, you get it. 
Again, cool collections. I love the old stuff.

Fantastic stuff, I used to have so much and didn’t realize what I had back then. Got that box from an older gentleman I did a lot of swapping with. Bought a Rock Ola carbine from him and he said here enjoy this youngster.Crap, the M1 Carbine Ball box isn't in the damn pic. Anyhow, you get it.

All this carbine talk made me think I hadn’t seen any of my carbines in a long time. Had to dig them from the nether regions of the safe
In the meantime, the Astoria Megler Bridge fogged in Saturday.

I’d love to play along, but it’s 3 rows deep in the safe. Inland Headlamp Division (GM?) version if memory serves me correctly. Miss Lori loves it.
I have some yellow Winchester boxes with brand new WW brass in them.
I wonder what they are worth?

Spent the last few hours doing more wedding invitations.
I was only allowed to do the return address stamp, the postage stamp, stuff and seal them. Oh and address my side after she got tired of the fancy hand writing.
Son had a great day at the park yesterday. We got my dad (papa) to ho down the slide. Had a little blonde girl there about my sons age, hes like his dad girls get him in trouble. Fell down the stairs of the slide because he was too busy looking at her.
Made him go right back up the slide.
You fall of you get back on.
Btw boys a 30 world make a nice wedding gift. Jk

I’m actually down to 3 carbines these days. One Inland which was a division on GM, one IBM which was well a part of the typewriter company, and the Rock Ola who actually made juke boxes. Two of them are CMP buys. Over the years at Benning, a buddy of mine and I would make regular trips and buy 2-5. Wish I would have kept them all now.
I actually remember when you could mail order them for like $75? Bucks a piece.
Got some cool military literature around here somewhere on them regarding take down/stripping n stuff. Since the move ain't seen it, but it's here. Very cool Brother and thx for sharing. Love it!

So not a stellar view but tried a few different bullets in the deuce deuce today. Had 3 do well which I expected and about 4 do not so good, one was expected but still good times
You are going to need to weld a 24 inch pipe wrench on the rear bumper to keep tailgating at a distance.
The clown and the Michelin man are pretty cool

They can tailgate all all they want. It doesn’t have a rear view mirror and that’s what the bumper is there for ?
I used to have that bulletproof phone
Now I'll explain. Big V informed me they would no longer be supporting old 3g phones like my beloved flipper above. Never mind the fact the thing is bullet and carpenter proof. As a result I've been drug into the smarty pants phone world kicking and screaming.
So far there's been no need to use a hammer during the learning curve, at least not yet. Time will tell.
Lots to learn for beatup old fingers.

That big V can suck my ass. We had our go round 17 years ago and I will never use them again in my life.
I'm dumping them later this year. Still have a daughter's phone to pay off. Work should start picking up 30-45 days get them paid off then switch carriers.
