    Maggie’s When you get caught spending money on reloading.

    Helps when you got one that supports your habits; i.e., yesterday I found a good deal on scopes and she suggested I buy two instead of the one I planned for. Couldn't argue that point.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Best EDC Pocket Knife?

    Had a $30 Gerber that went over seas with me for a total of 30 months that I thought I lost when putting up a deer stand 2 years ago. I was devastated for a few days until wife found in in the laundry bin. It didn't hold an edge real well but was good to field dress a deer if it was sharp to...

    Suppressors Do you clean your suppressor?

    Ended up trying the CLR soak on my Omega over the last three days. Started at 442 grams and ended at 434 grams. With anchor brake and ASR mount, the manufacturer spec for the Omega is 14.8 ounces and where it's at now at 434 grams equals 15.3 ounces. It sure looks a lot nicer inside but 8...

    How Accurate Is Your 10/22?

    Thanks for the compliment! Average for the 6 groups was .766" at 50 yards so it is around 1.5 MOA. Temp was 32F with switching light gusts, very tricky to catch the right wind. The lower left group the wind got me twice, once in both directions. The lower right group's two fliers were me...

    How Accurate Is Your 10/22?

    Good afternoon, This was shot yesterday with a 10/22 carbine barrel and receiver in a Titan Co stock and Kidd single stage 2# trigger at 50 yards with CCI SV. I'm sure the Green Mountain barrel will do much better. I am building this for when my kiddo gets old enough and the original mag...

    Maggie’s Do you have Siri, Alexa or google AI? Try this

    I plan on stopping doing both of those things as soon as I'm old enough to get some young lady to do it for me. Figure about 40 more years if I don't get ironed out by a beer truck driver reading MyBook or texting his man-bun wearing boyfriend while doing 80 on the interstate as I'm on two...

    Suppressors DIY Silicone Suppressor Cover

    Sure does, thank you. I have the drying mat in the amazon cart and am thinking of ordering the Rifles Only HAD sleeve to tie it all together. Maybe eventually figure out a way to bond the edges if it works well enough on the old Omega to warrant further effort. Semper Fidelis, Aaron

    Suppressors DIY Silicone Suppressor Cover

    Good evening @smoooth1 , Have you run this mat yet and got it hot? Wondering how it holds up under real conditions and if the material is grippy enough to keep from sliding off. Aaron Is that matting grippy enough to keep from sliding off your can?

    Suppressors Do you clean your suppressor?

    Yes, sir. Mine got stuck on the ASR mount guten tight once and I tried cranking it off and it came loose pretty easily when trying to get max grip on the whole unit. This was even after a liberal use of nickel anti-seize on the threads and bearing surfaces. I asked SiCo if they'd send me back...

    Suppressors Do you clean your suppressor?

    It looks like the outer sleeve has released. What caused that? Do yo think it was due to the engine cleaner? Mine released due to light use after about 2 years and SiCo reglued it for me.

    Maggie’s Son in laws and tools..

    Oh, for sure, this is most certainly true. I didn't do a good job at emphasizing the past tense of my thoughts on the subject. I USED to think that a guy couldn't be a good father or husband without knowing a multitude of subjects. This enlightenment has come with experience and knowing many...

    Maggie’s Son in laws and tools..

    I honestly didn't think you could be a good husband and father without at least knowing what basic tools do what jobs. You don't have to be an expert or pro, but at least know what you're doing. The men around me growing up all knew enough in the wood shop and garage. And the other lesson I...

    Maggie’s Motivational Pic Thread v2.0 - - New Rules - See Post #1

    WTF fellas? Had to double check I was not in the Bear Pit. I am no mod for sure and I likely write what others are probably thinking, but I'd like to see 2000 pages of motivation just because I would think that would be quite an accomplishment.

    30 MOA rail for 10/22

    @260264: Sorry if this is a hijack, and I will move the post if needed, but it is related as I think we're headed down a similar path: Building up a 10/22 here as well and don't have glass picked out yet, but looking for elevation that will get me from 10yds out to 300yds if it is feasible...

    Yup. That too. But I guess we'll have to build another! So here's what it is so far...
