    Little 4b scouting

    Step dad rocked his first ride in 50 years, dude had a serious cowboy walk when we got back. Lol too funny. More deer today and rode about 2 miles of elk trail with fresh sign but no sightings.

    heart broken

    Well not the end of the world but I destroyed a good stock on a Mauser 2000 I have been working on. I have a ton of time into making this stock perfect, as you can see the fore end was warped so it was touching the barrel way out on the end, i made a steel rod which I molded into the stock after some machining and then added wedges to tweak the stock off the barrel, next I works hours with hand tools some custom made to get ready for bedding. So now bedded and ready to go the recoil lug became mechanically seized. !!!! I was very careful and taped where I should have. The funny shape of this welded on recoil lug had me worried and It got me, I should have epoxied the lug to make it more uniform but I went with clay and tape instead which I thought would for sure be fine but either the devcon expanded slightly or I twisted it funny, I had to wreck the stock to remove it. Very bummed. The bed was perfect other than that which bums me out even more. Oh well I put everything away for the year. We will see how this ends.

    Davis tent panniers?

    Depending on your price range take a look at somo mule paniers in the 450.00 to 500.00 range, this should last a lifetime. The Davis paniers look fine but don't seem to be a long term set up. They should be fine for 2 times a year and last a long time but if your looking for heavy use your price range should be up over 400.00 per pair. Another really good set is outfitterpackstaion.com bear cloth paniers for 380.00 set I don't own them but I hear that are really good.

    Davis tent panniers?

    No experience with their paniers but they do know canvas for sure. Just make sure they are leather reinforced also with nylon webbing.

    heart broken

    90 percent completed now. So glad I stuck with this stock. My son grabbed this gun when he first started working a job and had his own money, later on he needed cash so I gave him 200.00 bucks with this as collateral. A year or so later he told me just to keep it and I later mentioned I sold it. This will be gift wrapped for his first elk hunt in December. I found another one just like it in a pawn shop and I may match them up and give the other one to my pops who has the same first elk tag. Both are 30-06.
  18. Picked this up recently and don't know the model, I think 16 ? It's traced back to 1924 per the owner but can't remember the model? Pump action in 30 rem Really love the head stamp in the side of the action very cool.

    Need gun identification

    Ok after a great many hours of research and talking to previous owner and looking through gun bible I have found this gun to be a model 14 built in 1928. A little trick for anyone wanting to correctly identify a gun, it's this complicated time consuming process of looking at the model 14 stamp on the action!!!! Lol I guess the lighting was all wrong the first time I looked over the gun Haha. Very cool this was a one owner gun purchase in 1929 for 68.00 bucks. Last round down the tube was 40 years ago.

    Midwestern Farm Pond Bass

    Cool deal, that's how I started out fly fishing. I fished bass for several years on the fly about 25 years back and only caught my first trout on the fly this year. Good times and nice work getting mom home.

    Hiking

    Still getting a couple days a week outside. I always end up at like 4pm too. My system is I keep a squeeze bottle frozen and one with ice and when I run or hike I use both to spray on my head. Ounce the one with ice goes down the frozen one is ready and half melted. Works pretty well. I just started using a silk neck gaitor with cold water, it was decent first time out on a run, it keeps the major neck arteries cool but it's annoying. Big hat and cold water and hiking isn't bad. Runs are brutal though. Also I don't go anywhere in the summer without a cooler and Gatorade. Post workout drinks are a must. Last I keep gallon jugs of water in the truck and take a quick bath before heading home. I usually don't go anywhere without my gym bag, one less excuse to not stop and hike or run or lift.
