Maggie’s What's Your View II

nice! I recently bought a TBAC TD specifically for shooting in my back yard. I shoot now, occasionally, but I wonder if my neighbors can hear. I don't really care, but I wonder... After I get the TD, I know they won't

Don’t let it fool you, it does nothing to keep your fillings in your teef!! The only gun besides my Barrett 99 I shoot double plugged^^Good to see the flash can on there. I had an 8.5" AR in 5.56 and that sumbitch would rattle your teeth.
Yep, plugs and muffs were a must with that damn thing. I finally re-barelled it to a 10.5" with a decent brake, and more importantly, a can.
It did make nice fireballs though. At close range, I suppose you could shoot the intruder, blind them, deafen them, and set them on fire all with one shot.

Special thanks to all you who sent donations of snow to make this possible for us. We got a few inches last night. Took the MC out to pinkberry, but the mall was closed.

I sent in paperwork for an SBR in August and got the stamp back last week, I was shocked because I had been reading that it was taking almost 9 months to get the stamp in hand. Guess I was lucky... Sadly, no cans here in MA.
You know people in the state are stupid when a properly vetted sbr is accepted but a noise suppression device scares them.
Especially when the same over blown vetting process is available.
You can absolutely not fix stupid.

Replacement Stock finally came in. If only I could get out to the range…..
For laughs…..

You are more than welcome. When that shipment starts running low, give a holler. Inventory up here is not affected by Bidenflation, we have plenty.
So much for "I'll never buy another project vehicle."
Old guy exercise walk this afternoon to paint steel was “fresh”. We made it above zero by 1400. Wind chill was around -15 give or take. Finally broke out the insulated coveralls and jacket. Supposed to be -20 degrees actual temp tonight. My phone died at about the 1 mile mark. Anyway, I couldn’t help but notice “something” has been using my trail. Based on the fresh track size, probably a young/small female...
Reverse the flow on the oil pump. It’ll flush all that shit right out of there and the filter will be good as new!
Lease, no grease (ie no maintenance).
I unknowingly walked under the tree that this guy was roosting in. Startled me a little when he took off. I didn't get as close to take the photo with my phone.
Picked a really good day to see if building a stream crossing is a good idea.

Vehicle, hoping it becomes someone else’s problem to help design it. Steep banks, creek threads through the area. They are planning to apply for stream bank work, access road, and crossing from a state agency.
Set a cam out at the farm to see what is still running around. Appears there is still some decent prospects. This cam is setting at the base of one of my tree stands.....
These last two were taken in the dark during a snow squall. Never seen streaks like this in a picture before.

He’ll be a fine specimen next year.
Was kinda curious to see if anything would show up as we’ve been doing a lot of cutting in that area. Would seem the deer don’t GAF.....

Had a few hundred bucks worth of cabellas gift cards accumulated, so took a trip up there yesterday. As expected, no reloading supplies that I needed. The youngest talked me into a new clay thrower. Seems to work ok just testing last night.
@Geno C. you building a trailer with those ?
It’s winter shouldn’t we be getting pictures of rides getting redone. Lots of ranger boat paint getting sprayed??

Nothing exciting going on in the shop at the moment. We are tearing down a 1938 ford truck though
And we have no snaps on that.
Revolt, revolt
1938 Ford does not = nothing exciting. What is wrong with you?
Do I need to post pictures of a wheelbarrow full of dirt so you can see nothing exciting?
Oh and to keep some of you happy.

Well, I haven’t talked my FIL into selling the body to me. He wants the motor and trans for his 37. So I’m still working on the excitement part lol
Original flathead ford with a 4 speed. If I get the body, I might do something a little wild
I gave him to his great grandmother and lights out.
Different subject. Our shop bitch at work 17 year boy who has a lot to learn in life. Ran his mouth to me when I was under a tractor. He asked if he could use my tools. I told him no , he forgot to put one back earlier this week. So he says he should kick my old grumpy ass. I slide out from under the tractor stand up look him in the face and said move. He was between me and my box. I think he pissed himself. I get back to work. I told him he might have a chance to kick my ass if it was just messing around in the shop... I then said you need to remember never mess with the old man in the shops kids. I’d hate to have to brake every bone in his worthless body. I told him he needs to learn what is worth fighting over and to shut his mouth and learn. I wish I could have recorded it. He went from puffed up and cocky to nothing in a second. I still hold out hope this boy will learn to be a man .

Thanks, so far I like itThat looks really nice, try some White targets at night
Was gonna hit em with some glow in the dark spray paint and see if the NV could catch a glimpse of them whizzing by
Got my truck back from my buddy that does my aftermarket stuff. Peak suspension trail kit, Warne winch, and AEV snorkel. Now I want to jump up 4 inches in tire size but that's a project. So it's going to stay like this for a bit.
Never tried a pair, but should. Our snow is typically wind driven, then gets set by the cold, think concrete. So, 98% of the time you stay on top. In @Nodakplowboy neck of the woods, it’ll set so hard that stock can walk over the top of fences.
Positional population control from the deck railing. A brief warmup wakes up the critters with growling bellies in broad daylight.
Even still that concrete shit is slippery. The crampons on snows shoes will keep you from falling.
And.....
Less chance of ripping a muscle if you do post Hole and over exert trying to stop sinking.
My shoes, bearpaws, are 10x36. They are a compromise shoe, don't do anything perfectly but most things well. Kind of like 4895. Fully outdoor dressed weight is +/- 195. When traveling through soft snow, such as between tall corn stalks, floatation is not the best. However, the short length and lack of a tailpiece makes turning much easier. On the hard snow one can almost jog (I don't).
Many years ago I had the opportunity to try a pair of Alaskan style shoes, long and narrow. Fast on the flat, slow on the turn. Someday might get a set, just because.
Up here the snow does get like concrete, it’s just not consistent across all conditions. The north side of a treeline could be rock hard. Cross the trees to the south 200', might be 2" of crust over 3' of powder.
Snow got a lot harder after last night..
Good day to size brass and read a good book.
Saw a pretty cool white oak yesterday. Top was broken out. 28 ft stem, 67.7 (5ft 8 in) in diameter at breast height.
