When you're presonally vested in the results -- no one will ever do as good a job as you will. Speaking of which . . . I'm off to do my mandatory "work party" at my new gun club. Cleaning leaves out of gutters . . . painting fences . . . ah yes. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
"Miami in the blood" . . . I hear there's a shot for that Lon. The place is lookin' good Gary. I have to find some time to do some "leaf cleanup" this weekend. Bagging / collecting isn't an option . . . I blow them all onto the lawn and mulch them with several passes of the tractor. Perfect! -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Congrats Gary and Jerry! Looks like a winner. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Dig that patina. Looks like it was just excavated out of the battlefield. Hey . . . those grips look suspiciously like my Victory's stock . . . Looks great! -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Wow, you really do live in a hollow tree. I've never heard of this one before. Amazing stuff. Had no idea you could "control" the pattern on the blade like that. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Man, that's cool. Love the "retro" stuff. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
I for one would be interested in seeing the 1,200 fpe airgun that our wonderful MD DNR folks used to establish this metric. Didn't get a chance to read the reg -- is it under rifle, muzzleloader, or bow season? As the deer population continues to increase, they have been expanding hunters' options. Sounds like some big bore-related education is in order. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Welcome to the Internet, where everything is for sale -- even nonexistant stuff. But you're right, it's just an ad program figuring out you typed in someone's name trying to get you to click through to their site. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Carving looks great Gary. Hey, who's that skinny guy in your shop holding the stock? -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Liquefaction . . . that's a $10 word! Pretty interesting actually, unless your house or other property happens to be built on top of it. When I lived in California, I went through one minor earthquake (that I felt -- I'm sure there were more). I thought it was a big truck going down the street, but it lasted about a minute or so, and the glass of water on the coffee table wouldn't stop sby admin - I'm just sayin'
Hah! Guess you can always open your own ER if the airgun biz doesn't work out. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
'Cuz someone was bound to ask anyway (ahem . . . Gary): Enjoy! -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
All that brass . . . it's Jules Verne meets Daniel Boone. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Hi Neil: My wife and I visited Christchurch for several days during our honeymoon and saw it got hit pretty hard. Hope you guys are OK. -- Jimby admin - I'm just sayin'
Sure ya did, Gary . . . sure ya did. I'll have to look for that later on . . . have been having fun fishing wires thru an insulated wall all day and am absolutely filthy. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Thought you might dig that. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Hey . . . I remember that group! -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Hey . . . if you happen to just randomly stumble upon a second carbine Victory stock, lemme know . . . -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Not at all, Gary. Just having a hard time wrapping my brain around the unfinished stock versus the completed piece. That's why I'm the computer guy and you're the artist. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Interesting . . . not what I expected. I'll have to wait to see the final picture. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Sweet! Another laminate one? -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
This one kinda reminds me of the Predator concept too. Would be nice to see with a long brass retro tube scope on it . . . would kinda make me cringe to see it with modern optics. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Ahhhhh . . . the Scout Plus. Looks good . . . -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
I wouldn't sweat it . . . many folks are trying to squeeze in that last vacation before Labor Day / back to school. It's been almost impossible to get anyone on the phone. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Interesting . . . notice that Gary's shot arrived first even though he fired after Jerry. Light 'Cuda slug versus heavier Yukon slug? -- Jimby admin - Video Library
I'll say this: if "nobody in particular" spent more time shooting and less time asking about a gun that's not even theirs, rather than "calling people out" on the intertubes, they would have saved everyone a lot of grief and many hours of wasted effort and emotion. It's not like your health and the ledger is a new situation; it's been that way, and public knowledge, for years. Do people reaby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
. . . to my range badge. I got a perfect 100% on the written test, too. I know . . . you took your safety class when you were 10. But give me kudos for being willing to learn "new" stuff at my advanced age. So . . . now I can get my range badge at the private gun club I joined a few months ago. It's only 12 minutes away, and they have 25, 50, 100, and 200 yard ranges. Paper taby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Great post rotor. I'm dying to respond, but will give Gary first crack at it. -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Oh man . . . you're really asking for it here. Full-auto big bore. Bench format. Also usable as standard single-shot rifle, of course. Even if it's a one-off. I know you can do it, too; you've built full-auto air canes before. Imagine what the hi-speed video of a line of .58 roundballs would look like impacting the target . . . -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
Perhaps . . . but wouldn't that be better than no season at all? -- Jimby admin - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
