    Card Hits!

    No doubt! Wasn’t too long ago, before this cancer called the internet has plagued society that two men took care of business after a heck of a lot fewer words spoken! I do have 3 words for BOB however, “Stay Down Luke!”

    Yep I acquired my 21st point and in a sick way this Peyton Place alleviates the depression a bit!

    Rivers are Running!! Fill them lakes up

    You’re going to have great weather and hopefully they surprise you! One year about 25 years ago in February between El Niño storms we were surprised by a great spinnerbait bite for like 3 days. Kind of a medium retrieve in 6-8’ of water. Good luck!

    Shipping container garage

    Owner/builder for a livable structure I think might be different than the opt out permit. It’s for non livable structures like storage, garages etc. If they’re still offering it? There are no inspections and no detail plans only a site plan showing property lines and not much more than a concept drawing. As for number of structures allowed on one property I’m not sure?

    Are you In Cochise or Pima county? In Cochise and RU4 zoned (min 4 acres I believe)you can apply for the opt out permit where there are no inspections except at the end where the assessor comes out to measure. Oh yeah they’ll get their tax $

    I’ve been seeing them trucked west on I-10 and now I’ve seen a bunch of them I believe at the Los Reales landfill

    Muzzleloader information for beginners

    Yeah I heard the cci were comparable. I’ll have to try those if I can’t get the 209a. Supposedly match grade figures the head space based on the federal. Wouldn’t think that would be much different?

    Just ordered a 45 cal barrel from match grade for my Thompson frame. I plan on going with the Arrowhead XLDs and sizing to bore. The Blackhorn seems to have become more available but 209a primers are a little tough to get it seems

    Outdoorsman Carbon Tripod

    I started dealing with Outdoorsman back in the 80s when Floyd ran that little shop on Cavecreek with no employees. Since then I’ve dealt with probably half a dozen or more employees over the years and never got an arrogant feel, confident definitely! I guess I could see a thin skinned customer mistaking confidence for arrogance

    They’ve been talking about that for over a decade I believe

    I will gladly accept being wrong on this topic. Hope it happens!

    We’ll likely never see another dam constructed with the stranglehold the envirotards have on this country

    Outdoorsman Carbon Tripod

    It’s possible that the margins from a percentage standpoint are similar between this tripod and a slik considering a slik is probably put together for about $4 by a Thai laborer

    Outdoorsman Carbon Tripod

    Yeah who knows? Will be interesting to see how they sell considering that’s just the tripod and no head but like someone else said they will sell just because “Outdoorsman” is stamped on them.

    Outdoorsman Carbon Tripod

    I’ve packed an Outdoorsman tripod around all over the place for like 22 years and it still works like it did when new. They build a solid product and I don’t think they’ll have any problem selling them

    36B didn't disappoint!

    Great looking mount! Congrats again on a great buck no matter the measurement! By the way nets are for fish!

    Just bought a Traeger and really?

    Make sure rodents aren’t starting to build a nest in the burner pot. I have never vacuumed out ours but early on it wouldn’t burn so I had to pull it apart and found a nest built. Had to screen every hole that would let a critter get in.

    Scope question

    I did the same. P-223. Good scope for the money. I think I heard Nikon wasn’t building rifle scope any longer though?
  23. Off of a 2018 2 seater with 1800 miles. Upgraded to the SuperAtvs so I could run 30s. Nothing wrong with these. $250

    Wisconsin AEN motor

    For anyone interested in this. It was on a pump jack on the ranch decades ago. Couple years ago I dumped a little gas in the carb and it fired on first crank so has compression and spark but the float bowl gasket needs replaced for sure so can’t put gas in the tank. I don’t have time to mess with it. Seen them on eBay so they have some value. Any interest message me and we’ll talk. So. Az.
