    Milwaukee vs DeWalt?

    Yesterday I saw at Lowes that DeWalt has a conversion kit that allows you to use the new 20v batteries on the old 18v tools. I'm thinking I may give it a try. I've got shelves and shelves of old DeWalt tools that I just refused to keep dropping money on the old, overpriced 18v batteries...

    Milwaukee vs DeWalt?

    I use mine professionally and buy them myself, and my experience is inline with @gunjunkie45 . Pretty much every contractor I work around uses DeWalt, but I spent my hard-earned $ thousands on Milwaukee, having had great luck with their (older) corded tools. Part of this was for my own sanity...

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    Thats an old Rem factory 1:12 barrel. Going from (distant) memory my MV trued out at around 2450fps with Black Hills 175gr. I didn't bother to run it over the Magnetospeed after I eventually got one. Aside from a rare Benchrest match for fun, I don't generally shoot for groups, but it's...

    Show of Hands. Who else has lost their job to COVID-19?

    Another member of the club here. I was working a series of shutdowns at the Chevron Refinery in Pascagoula,MS when we started hearing a rumor that they may send all the contractors home because of this Corona BS. We were all laughing at how absurd the rumor was because nothing stops a shutdown...

    The Hide Report from Tampa, V2.0 (aka The Mikes adopt Bogey)

    Long story at the end of a long day, with a long week in store. So to keep it brief for now: I'm in Tampa, spur of the moment, for the remainder of the week. Came off the interstate and started woodchuckin' with the honey badger, ole...

    What have you done different

    It's a shame you don't know a guy with a landscape nursery in your area. @oneshot86 might even have trained a "hand" to tell the difference between a shovel and a landscape sign. Beautiful project buddy. If I weren't busy fishing I'd be down there salvaging St Aug turf one shovel at a time

    PSA MP5

    Thanks, I had checked their site and didn't see either of the carbines mentioned. Hell, I'm currently only a few miles from their location in Summerville, SC maybe I'll pop in on my next venture out and see what they have in-store. What else should I be doing while indefinitely laid off but...

    PSA MP5

    To be clear, are y'all talking about Palmetto State Armory? Or a different PSA?

    What Kids Like

    I was blessed to have grown up in south Louisiana, where basically everything is a potential menu item. I was raised with one simple rule: you will try everything that's put in front of you and may or may not be told what it is you're eating until afterwards. There was also ONE option for...

    Steve McQueen

    Damn, all y'all were listing his greatest hits no one mentioned The Hunter? Great flick, right up there with The Great Escape. As tragic as his early passing was, at least he went out a man. I don't think I could've taken watching him try to fall in with the Hollywood leftists and titty...

    Wilson Combat Woes

    You nailed it. I'm only going from personal memory's and don't know if I'm entirely right, but I first encountered Wilson's work in the very late 80's and early 90's shooting IPSC. IIRC they weren't building their own guns yet, but were upgrading factory pistols for competition use. Race...

    My thoughts exactly. I figure that exploring the backwaters of South Carolina's largest lake is a pretty responsible way for me to "self-isolate"

    Tucker301 and Veer_g

    I'd have to catch something first, but I'm enjoying figuring out all the ways to not catch fish on this lake. Eventually I'll get serious about it, but for now fishing is giving me a great excuse to explore a bit and to sit and ponder. Ironically, I'm on an extended outdoor "vacation" because...

    Tucker301 and Veer_g

    Damn, I hadn't seen a familiar "face" on the site in a while and in the past day or so I'm seeing the superstars. I am still in "LA", but did a bit of a bug out yesterday to SC. I hope to never get immune to how beautiful this country can be. Driving the back roads across Georgia with the...

    Tucker301 and Veer_g

    Thanks man. I've been completely absent for a good bit. I think my last meaningful visit was many months ago when I simultaneously had the time and money to shoot some matches and was hunting a piece of gear. I popped on long enough to find a recommendation for and subsequently purchase a...

    walmart is policing whats in your cart

    If they had buns then you were the winner. That's what my Neighborhood Market looks like every afternoon, but I also haven't seen bread of any kind in over a week.

    German Sheperd or Malinois?

    The Mal/GSD thing appears to be well handled, again. My recommendation is to let your old guy live out his days in peace and get your new puppy (whatever it is) once he's gone.

    CONGRATULATIONS BOGEY BROWN

    Thanks gents. @oneshot86 literally texted me while I was in the middle of a weld pass. My Ironworkers Local has a massive project going and needed additional welders that could pass "Unlimited" Flux Core groove overhead and vertical (3G and 4G on 1" plate) so they opened their books. I...
