Dis guy never been up near Oh Be Joyful when the crick be runnin…..

Plenty of spots I been in old rigs that it was an issue. 2.5’ of water is nearer the air intake than I prefer.
Add in spring temp drops and you might have ice build up on it (had that before a few times)

Were fishing at Pole Creek near Stoney Pass one year when a couple came blowing through the water crossing and water locked the engine and died in the middle of the stream. We towed him out and parked the vehicle off the side of the road. Lifted the hood and when we pulled the air filter housing water poured out. Engine was DRT. They spent the night in our camp since it was getting below freezing each night. Had to have the vehicle towed out and no doubt it wasn't cheap.

Colt is well known for not giving a fuck about anything but Government and fudd dollars.

Anybody really surprised?

ETA: I’m sure any mfg with a .gov contract would sell out the American public for that government titty. Yes, that includes a lot of our favorite brands. No, they don’t give a shit about you.

I flipped mine down but everything went black before I even got started.

I think all my 6 arcs are in BCM thermofit uppers. All my criterion barrels have been good shooters. I was very impressed with my chromelined criterion 223 barrel. It shoots sub MOA 5 shot groups with my 55g blaster ammo.

Love this photo. Got me some sweet taters from the garden. Wife says she's not even going to try.

Try what? To cook those yummy sweet taters?

Just scrub them up, cut off the tips and make 1” chucks out of them. Throw some salt, pepper, etc on them in a cookie sheet and roast them that way. Very tasty and good for you too.

Mrs. Lash has spoken!

9mm and 45acp bolt action repeaters have been done in my shop. The 45 was first. I printed internals for a 308 AICS mag and used a 1911 mag spring to run it. The action was an SR3 and it was a ton of fun to shoot. We were messing with it one weekend on an E type at 400 yards. You could see the copper rainbowing downrange. I even used it one year to take a doe at my parents' house from ~45 yards with 230 grain Winchester PD ammo.

The 9mm was the same concept. I used 3D printed magazine internals, a Sig P228 mag spring, and a $45 9mm blank from Green Mountain. It's fun to shoot in my parrents back yard with 147 subs and a suppressor. It makes the same amount of noise as a suppressed 22 but it hits the steel plates harder and my sons enjoyed it more.

I still have the files and we can create more of them. The critical component is to use a 700 action with controlled round feed and a blade/inertial ejector like a Bighorn, Kelbly, ARC, etc.

I even posted it to the PVA instagram account back in 2019 or so and I have internal components for the 45 mags still. We could make more starting tomorrow.

That's pretty cool. Can you give a breakdown on the pricing? I really wish one of the OEM's would make a 9mm bolt gun with an action designed from the ground up around it.

I am guessing that Semperfi83 is a fellow Swede?
As those exact rifles are on the shelf at the biggest huntingstores in Sweden.

Thats correct.

I have not decide yet witch rifle to go on.
We have like a "smal" debate with the ar15/10 rifle in Sweden that im waiting to see the outcome from.
I have today a old "Sniper" SSG 69 PII.
If I compare the xm3 with the ssg 69 the xm3 is way more balanced.
The ssg 69 is extreme front havey.

How can this be a surprise for anyone? Cops work with criminals all day, every day. They know for 100% certainty that crime pays so they use crime for their own benefit.

The democrat running for New Jersey governor was cheating her way thru the Naval Academy and increased her net work 1000% in just six years in congress. He'll she got both her kids in the Naval Academy for free college.

This is minor by comparison and that bitch is going to win that election.

Guys, don’t be afraid of that Disco Tommy Bahama color scheme. My buddy just brought a rifle by that we collaborated on for a Benefit Raffle. 22 Creedmoor sweetness!!!

pronelife · 2025-10-09T16:53:18-0400

What's the criteria for making a thread "sticky"? With barreled actions starting to appear in the wild it seems like now would be a good time?

TheHorta · 2025-10-09T16:53:15-0400

That was some strong-ass diversity in action right there.

I actually live on Pfingsten road in Nogal. My mom grew up on Loma Grande ranch. Nice work, if you need a job I'm always looking for good help haha.

The company I worked for bought the Pfingsten Ranch in the mid 2000's and we used to get all the landowner tags and we put them to good use. Harvested quite a few nice elk off that property. Unfortunately the company sold it and put an end to that. Did draw a muzzleloader elk tag in Unit 17 this year and leaving in a week for that hunt.

Sliders are made with .120 DOM tubing and bent on a JD3 Model 32 hydraulic bender. All joints TIG welded with a Fronius 230i with the exception of extension tube to mounting plates pulse welded with a Millermatic 255 on a MK positioner. Plan on going to Ruidoso in the next few weeks to check on the house and would enjoy meeting you and seeing your shop.

OK, so there's your root pass, now start on the filler passes. From what I see here, and darned pretty too, you're going to need about 9 more passes and finish with an angle grinder and a 60 grit disk.

Just pulling your leg.

I did exactly that. Will you be my Sensei?

No and to be honest I wouldnt reccomend them . Price is too high these days. A better choice is a Ruger American or Mossberg Patrol in 5.56 or 300 BO with the AR mags. Thats just a barrel change and you can use an AR mag block to use Colt mags or one of the conversion 9mm AR mags that has the ejector built in. The 5.56 bolt being close enough to 9mm to olny need a quick cut with a die grinder. Im a metal guy and making barrels etc is easy work. The damned stock though. I made a huge vise jaw set to hold them in the mill so I can use a gigantic 1 3/8 carbide ball nose cutter to inlet the stocks for the suppressor and its easy work now. Needs a wood stock though.

Nice work! The ruger american conversion is a great idea.
