    Recession - 2022 / 2023 / 2024

    Yeah, Speaking of unistrut, I couldn't find any in stainless steel locally. Lot of dealers offered to special order it, except no-name brand stuff that was probably made in China. Trying to go through official unistrut dealership was just going nowhere. Ended up ordering it from a big...

    Recession - 2022 / 2023 / 2024

    I know it's a regional thing, but more and more homes are coming on the market here in my area (Rocky Mountain West), but they're still priced as if it was late 2021. I think people are realizing they got in over their heads, and are having second thoughts of living the dream in the mountains...

    Who's bought a car recently? (Last 30 days or less)

    There is nothing new that interests me right now, or at least offered in the USA. I'm going in the opposite direction and looking for stuff made in the 80's and 90's by Toyota. Having something that you don't need a computer to trouble shoot a problem is becoming more appealing as time goes on.

    SITREP: Update 2/18 - Major War Confirmed Imminent

    You know, this could have all been avoided if back in January of 2022, we deployed a bunch of troops, tanks, aircraft, etc. to Ukraine for an "Exercise" just like Russia was supposedly doing at that time in Belarus.

    Recession - 2022 / 2023 / 2024

    Yeah, I've been seeing this pattern here locally. Walmart - no engine oil on the shelf other than some odd viscosities, that few use. Not much better selection at the auto parts stores, who are traditionally 20% higher priced. Less and less choices for oil/air filters for popular models...

    Inflation.......... ?

    Went in and paid my property taxes yesterday. Between building on it (improvements) which doubled my taxes, and value increases from COVID-19, I'll see even higher taxes next year. My opinion, the essentials for living such as shelter, heat, and food should not be taxed.

    Firearms Keeping

    In your original post, you say"Each, now banned", so that's what I was asking about? I understand limited runs, are sometimes truly limited, sometimes they do get made again. Either way, it would be nice to have one of these.

    Selling Stuff for a Gunsmith

    Load Development Blocks. Made with short-fat 6BR based cartridges in mind, but work equally well from 6mm CM to 308Win. They have silicone rubber feet, and are stackable. Innovative and ergonomic finger groove on outside edge helps in picking up the tray. I designed these myself, and an...

    Banned? Banned by who? If they wanted to build more of them, what's stopping them?

    Ammo Black Hills MK262 - In Stock Heads Up.

    Gone. Got the last two in my cart, and then it wouldn't let me check out saying insufficient stock on hand.

    The "Official Shortage Thread"......

    Glad I stocked up on most of my copper wire needs last year. I saw the writing on the wall early on.

    Inflation.......... ?

    No kidding on the window prices, crazy high, but what do you do, put plastic over the opening and hope prices come down?

    Upgrading insulation in a home?

    As Tomcat and others have suggested. Another thing to look into is having a ventilation system that draws damp air from your crawl space to the outside. Low CFM fan which can be on a timer, and will use minimal electricity.

    Group Buys Group Buy - IDF Surplus Gear

    I didn't buy any from the Group Buy, but I had owned several of them previously, and used Leupold Mk4 rings with all of them.

    The "We All Started Somewhere" thread...

    Remington model 700 BDL in 270Win. from JC Penneys, and Redfield 3-9X from a sporting goods store at the other end of the mall.

    Things forced Upon Us?????

    Not just those you hire. Problem is some companies expect you to work extended hours, weekends, holidays, etc., because they can get away with hiring less people. This equates to less benefits, healthcare, retirement plan, etc that the company has to invest in. Less expensive than paying...

    I found a solution for the southern border.

    I said long ago, make the border area a live fire artillery/bombing range. About 20 miles wide would do it.

    LOL do people actually shoot anymore?

    I have those scary guns the Liberals say go out and kill people all on their own. So why do I need to shoot anymore if the guns can do it without me?
