Sky Island junkie

I thought the same thing. Probably these pukes know they would get off easier with the state than a pissed off rancher that might take the law into his own hands!

I’m looking to replace the bronco I had when I was younger. 10 years ago I said no to a 75 at 25k. Sure wish I hadn’t passed on that one! Looked at a 72 the other day that was totally rusted out and lots of cheesy mods. He wouldn’t budge off 18k!

Most definitely had to be there when I purchased but as I recall it was faint. Took me a few days to tell it was doing it more at certain rpm’s. I was also under the a false sense of security that it was still covered under factory warranty. Not so much if in an accident though

Bet there are a ton of stories about that place! They sold me a vehicle danged near 30 years ago that was less than a year old and 18k miles. In a few days I noticed weird noise coming from bottom of motor when revving. After a couple of hours of investigating found the oil pan was pushed into the pick up screen and the noise was the oil pump whining as it was trying to pick up oil. The front quarter panels and hood were replaced, radiator etc. Definitely had been in an accident. When the general manager said he was not going to do anything about it because I signed the as is papers I pretty much at that point started trying to dissuade anyone in the showroom from buying from them. I guess the GM didn’t like me telling him I was going to kick his butt so he called PD so I left. Vowed to never buy another vehicle owned by the Van Tuyl group again!

Good for him! The dikhead thought he spotted an easy mark and got a surprise! Maybe the idiot will think twice the next time. If he makes it

A neighboring rancher and his son came over so the son could change the oil in our windmill and while he was doing the change, we were BSing and had no idea their dog was down sport killing all of our chickens. We didn’t know about until the next morning. We actually didn’t want to say anything to our friends because they’re the type to want to buy us new chickens even though they were over doing something for us for nothing. I gave their dog a treat next time I saw him. I like the dog more than those stupid birds!

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!

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!

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

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

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

Great buck! Congrats!

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

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.

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

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