Thanks y'all! Happy birthday to the rest!

Rustolium

Thanks for the birthday wishes! Been away from a computer for a little bit.

We bought a all inclusive trip to Punta Cana at a well known resort. Not looking to do much besides sit under a palm tree with a cold drink in my hands for a few days. She's talking about zip lines, para-sailing and such, so I guess it won't all be idle time on the beach, but it will be nice to jus...

DPris,
Well, I'm maintenance, so no parka for me. We get the APECS parka and it blows.

I bought the standard version at Cabela's years ago. It is definitely a very cold weather cap, I wore it last winter when it got below zero and had to switch back to a regular ball cap. Now, if I could wear one on the flightline, I'd love it! The wind just cuts right through you out there!

Rustolium

Thanks all y'all! I'm going to try and shoot down an RC plane today! Gotta love friends!

Rustolium

Turkey call!

Rustolium

Surefire all the way! I have four and 3 of them are LED Only one was purchased as an LED and it is the E2L Outdoorsman. It has a low/high clicky tailcap, I carry it in my thigh pocket at work(Air Force). I have an older E2E that is incandescent and while it is nice and bright, it eats batteries like...

Just another tip: a foam earplug works awesome for plugging the barrel. Nothin wrong with newspaper, but I found a rag didn't work well.

.30 cal. You could look for an AK cleaning kit too.

I'd like to get a .22 slide kit for my 1911, a .22 lever gun(Marlin more than likely) and a .22 pump gun. Other than those, we'll see what pops up!

We did tire work in high school if you bought the tires and brought everything by the shop. I remember pulling a "T" bone out of a tire, one of my teachers had hit a bag of trash that was in the road. Seems to me that someone had steak before they tried to take the trash to the dump!

Rustolium

Bluegrass, country, rock, rockabilly, ska. Can't really name too many artists though. I'm listening to the Nekromantix and Reverend Horton Heat at work right now.

Rustolium

I like your rig too! I do something similar by just putting .30WCF rounds in my .44 loops. Works for me!

Rustolium

Thanks all! I get to celebrate a day late due to work, but it'll be good!

Otto, when I replaced the sight on my Bisley Vaquero, I just used a set of pliers, wigled it a bit and pulled it right out of the slot. It appeared to be silver soldered in place. Mine is stainless and that front silver sight was impossible for me to see. I replaced it with a new dove tailed front ...

My buddy has a Rem Model 12 he inherited and needs a new buttplate. I can't find one on any of my usual sources. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks in advance fellas!

Rustolium

Try any beer you can't see through. That should do it nicely!

Rustolium

Garand!

Rustolium

I think it's funny how almost every other person they interview says "this was owned by so and so, it has a lot of sentimental value to me, so I'm going to pawn it off." I don't understand how something passed down in your family that has sentimental value to you can be sold off for nothin...

Rustolium

I agree with all that has been said.

Rustolium

while I really appreciate the fab work evidenced by your pics, did you do this because you wanted to do your own loader, or will the lee kit not work on brass. I ask because I have an old lee and will be getting some brass cases to try this in my coach gun side by side. You have inspired me to try ...

Rustolium

Sadly, it's photoshopped. Cool pic none the less!

Rustolium

I always wear a hat. I take it off inside if I will be in for some time, if just passing through I leave it on. Other folks have stated that they wear hats because of the military. My experience is the opposite. I wore hats to worka all day everyday up till I joined the Air Force. Now i wear them to...

Rustolium

It seems like every forum I am on has a thread just like this every few months. I ALWAYS carry at least one knife, currently a Kershaw Blur in S30V, often I add my Gerber Compact multi-tool. I feel naked without one on me.

Rustolium

I have a question, how do the grips attach without a screw? I keep seeing "one piece" but I'm lost as to how they are done. Is it glue?

Rustolium

Try TIG welding gloves as well. They are very thin, I can usually pick up welding wire with them on.

Rustolium

Mink oil! It is used to protect the leather, not just waterproof it. I use it on my Gore-tex boots too, the leather in those needs help as well.

Rustolium

A shortened Marlin 1894 .44 Mag, walnut and stainless with peeps. Good for workin with, keeps around easy.

Rustolium

Kinda OT, but I like Harry Turtledove. He does alternate history. The best series is about the South winning the War of Northern Aggression. It tarts out fine, but I'm not liking where it's ending up.

Rustolium

Air Force here. I'm a 2A771, also known as Aircraft Metals Technology Craftsman. I'm a welder and a machinist.

Rustolium

Thanks all!

Rustolium

Looks like an Ithaca single shot shotgun. Cool pic too!

Rustolium

Very nice!

That would be pretty cool. I am TC ignorant: Have they ever made a repeater?

As far as I know, they have made at least one type of bolt gun. The one I saw a pic of has a butterknife handle.

Rustolium

I'm feelin a Marlin 93 or 36 in .30 WCF, no longer than carbine length.

Rustolium

Seeing pics of 1892's always makes me want one!

Rustolium

I like the two tone look! I just may do that to my Marlin 1894SS. Very handy looking, too.

Rustolium

Good job man!

Rustolium

Very nice work!

Rustolium

Cutting oil is used to lubricate, cool, and flush chips away. I would use Tap Magic, if you can find it. Otherwise almost any light oil would work. Beeswax is also a good lube for aluminum. Good luck with your project!

Rustolium

I like my Springer Commander! No jams or malfunctions.

Rustolium

Layers, with either Mossy Oak Break-Up or DCU's on top. Depends where I'm going hunting.

Rustolium

I was in my Senior year of high school. First class of the day was Ecology, a student came in and gave the teacher a note. He didn't tell us what was going on untill the end of class. I thought it was a Cesna untill around lunchtime when we found out more. We had VA Gaurd F-16s flying topcover over ...

Rustolium

Sendin this one to my Dad!

Rustolium

Very nice work! If I were to buy one, I'd like the back end to not stick out so much and the "belly" to be less. I'd also round it off more, less square. Did you do the work yourself or was it done by CNC?

Rustolium

Got a question for y'all, why is the lever shaped like that on Win 1895's?

Rustolium

The one I went to in SC had a lot of inventory, but prices were extremely high. Higher than Bass Pro or Cabalas and much higher than the internet. They were short on reloading supplies too. I have had the exact opposite experience here in Boise, ID. Sportsmans has better inventory, more reloading s...

Loved 'em!
