YES INDEED DREWSTER!! HOT DOGS FOR EVERYONE!!!! :dancefool::dancefool::dancefool: -
Problem with rehabbing rust is,, its sort of like the difference between choosing to fully remodel an old run down, water damaged home or just building new. That rust gets into EVERYTHING Vaz,, what starts as a frame repair ends up including anything made of steel (like brake lines, fuel tanks, body panels).. Besides, I am REALLY not looking for something to work on,, at this point in lifes journey, I am looking for ways to get OUT of work and just enjoy the glorious days of retirement:checkeredflag:

THAT IS AWESOME CAMMY!! I love saving !! I have a dental appointment next week for a filling and then to be fitted for the partials. With all this GREAT input (THANK YOU GANG!!) about implants, I may just get the filling done and pass on the partial fitment for a while and get some quotes on implants. If nothing else, maybe just do my lower right where even a couple implants would give me some chew power.. Now you KNOW I gotta respond to the President Trump and "his" wall comment . 1st, IMH :usa:O, it is not his wall, it is OUR wall, America's wall to keep out those who choose to violate our country's laws by coming here illegally,. It does intrigue me that, as a Canadian you can not see that the action we Americans are choosing to take by building our wall not only protects our sovereign nation but also protects your home land. Perhaps Canada should chip in on the costs associated with the build OR fully fund an unguarded bridge over America for those who choose to not go thru the legal process of becoming real Americans so they have the ability to come, with their drugs and gangs and set up residency in Canada! You could start a Canadian "Go Fund Me" thing today that would be used to give those illegals free plane rides from Mexico to Canada as a start to the process Cammy. Perhaps "Cammy the Canadians Free Ride Plan" would end up creating such a vacancy of illegals crossing into America that we 's would not have to build our wall!! -

I can't be the only one of us lop eared varmints who have/are dealing with this. After loosing several crowns over the past few years I ended up with no chew surface (molars) on the bottom right and upper left. My dentist is hooking me up with partials for both area's to restore proper chewing. What do think gang,, are partials worth it or are complete Dentures the way to go? I know I go complete for wayyyy cheaper BUT,, as in lots of things,, I am sure there are times when putting your money where your mouth is ends up being the right way to go... Thoughts? -
Oh,, and no air in the forks..

Mine dialed in at 1" spacers and 12.5wt Belray fork oil BUT,,, that worked perfect for 2 up and packed solid for touring (with a fair amount of off-roading involved).. May be a little stiff for 1 up stuff,, dont know...

I currently have a bug buzzin in my ear about this one: https://battlecreek.craigslist.org/cto/d/battle-creek-1990-suzuki-jimny/6817290226.html Cool thing is, it located about 5 miles from Birdies (my 2 year old Grandson's place) so we could stop by and show the little feller what his Grandpappies got in store when he comes to stay over night with us this summer:big-grin-emoticon: Doing research on parts availability and so and so forth as I type here..

Rock solid Raggy,, 100% rock solid. Been out running around and putting some fixing on the whole mess. Sent the email over to my FFL late last night, waited to hear back from about why they would tell the seller (who is also an FFL) he needed to obtain my personal info. Heard nothing by 10am so I made a quick journey over to the shop (about 6 miles away,, GREAT folks too,, 20 bucks to do the background = hand guns included). Walked in the door, asked for Jim (owner), got informed that Jim and fam were on vacation = TAHHHHH DAHHH.. Talked to one of the employees (who admitted to nothing when asked if he was the one who started the "you have to send a copy of your DL to the seller routine) about what was going on,, his response was that maybe in Louisianna they have that requirement. I gently corrected him and reminded him that the seller said they (my local ship to FFL) had requested it of him, not the other way around. Under my asking to correct the whole issue (did not want to have to wait till next week for the owner to get in), I asked if he would call the selling FFL and straighten it out, reminding him a couple of times that the flow of transfer goes like this: The gun is transfered FFL to FFL, the receiving FFL is the one respondsible for what happens to the gun once it gets in his hands (this would be my local FFL in this case). Then, after receiving the gun, the receiving FFL does the background check (which Jim, the owner has done in my case several times) and, if it clears, the gun is transfered into the buyers name (me).. Once he got that clear, he made the call,, no answer,, left a message.. When I got home there was a message in email from the seller saying we were all set and he would be shipping my 7.62 NATO AR out tomorrow. The seller sounds like an AWESOME guy, here is link to his Face Book page,, WAYYYYY COOL STUFF HE HAS GOING ON AND OL PUCSTER TOLD HIM SO!! https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=KA%20Tactical&epa=SEARCH_BOX

Google is our friend: An air rifle scope is special because it can withstand the unique vibration and double recoil of an air rifle. NEVER PUT A FIREARM SCOPE ON AN AIR RIFLE. Now, the reason people enjoy having scopes on their air rifles is because it will help you achieve the pinpoint accuracy that air rifles are known for. So, let’s take a look at the two different kinds of scopes starting with fixed air rifle scopes. https://www.airgundepot.com/air-rifle-scopes-overview.html

We're a good bunch of varmints,, a little jittery and rough around edges at times BUT,, we got big hearts,,, at least I do,,, just ask me, I can vouch for me I gotta admit though,,, sometimes when hanging out in the club house here,, I do feel like I am living in an episode of the Red Green show ... Quando omni flunkus, moritati. (Translation: When all else fails, play dead) -
Cheap way to have fun with a 7.62x51?? https://www.ammoboard.com/rifle-ammo/7-62x51mm-nato/dag-7-62x51mm-srt-10grain-plastic-training-ammo-1000-rounds/

That is exactly the reason why I did not just send the Pic's of my DL to the seller late last night. I am REALLY excited about getting the new shooter but not excited enough to send that kind of info out over the internet. With all the scamming and other issues I have seen and experienced by having even a little of my personal info out there,,, I am more than a little skidderish about doing so... Can't be to careful these days it seems,, IMHO of course..

I fooled (no pun intended,,, take that back,,, ALL pun's intended ) around with pellet guns and real ones and mixing hardware for em up for years and gotta say,, what you and Leopold are saying here is SPOT ON!! I always thought it was ironic that a little 500 fps break open pellet gun could send the cross hairs of a scope that was mounted on my 22-250 to the bottom of the retical.. Never made sense but I can verify, it can and does happen..... POOF Another point on the "kick" of a BB gun. When I was young Puc and proud that I could handle the punch of my Dad's 12 gauge, the thought occurred to my overly curious brain as to whether or not my sissy lil Crosman 760 had any form of punch to it.. Curiousity got the best of me so after pumpin er up with 10 pumps, I stuck the shooter against my upper lip and pulled the trigger (good thing it wasnt a Spring Air,, probably woulda knocked out my front teeth). Walking around elementry school with great big swollen fat lip for a couple weeks wasn't that bad,,, all my buddies thought I had gotten into a fit with a guy 2 years older than I,,,, wonder where they got that idea
-
THAT was exactly my first thought. Although he (my FFL) has never required it before, it is entirely possible that this is the case and I have a question asking that (almost verbatim) out to him right now (his shop dont open for another hour so it will be at least that long before I hear back). I just did not want to send "front and back" photos of my DL out into cyber world late last night without knowing my butt was covered too.. You are more likely than not SPOT ON 40!

HEARING THAT BROTHER!!!! Them Daredevils were Pike killing machines!! Now for Bass, even though I did try those Jitter Bugs and Huliee Poppers numerous times, I was always wayyyy more successful with a good old Dark Purple rubber crawler and the ones with the little yellow spot on the forward part of the their bodies always seemed to work xtra special !!
