    Gunsmithing Building 1911

    Alright guys I took more pictures today. Today we finished fitting the barrel and cut the barrel legs and got the machine marks out of the slide and frame. Had a great experience running a buffing wheel on a dremel tool across my knuckles today at full speed. SRM I dont have pics of the barrel...

    I need a cigar education!

    Just picked up 10 more cigars today and a humidor. Felt weird keeping nice cigars in a paper bag with a moist paper towel to keep the humidity up. Now just have to buy some more cigars to make the humidor look full.

    Need help deciding on a purchase

    If you are living away from home definitely keep the cash. I am in college right now and can always use extra money for just going out or if I forget to pay my water bill and have to pay the $75 reconnection fee.

    Is it over!!!????

    Went to Gander Mtn last week and bought my dad a cz 455 for fathers day and was told they had some 22 lr ammo. I asked if it was bulk and was told yes but had to make sure they still had some before they told me a price. They had 320 rounds for $20. I was only allowed to get 2 packs but thought...

    I need a cigar education!

    I have only smoked cigars for a couple years and not on a regular basis but one of my favorites has been the Carlos Torano reserva decadencia. It may be that it was my first good cigar and fit the bill good as a pretty mild cigar. I had a few of them the week I was at the beach and they all...

    How to handle a severely drug addicted friend?

    I agree with what everyone above has said. I lost a friend I grew up with a few months ago to an overdose. He got help and was clean for awhile. Came home and stayed away from the old friends and was doing good. He even worked at a rehab facility for awhile I believe. He started hanging out with...

    Hunting & Fishing Jackson coosa kayak

    I do not have a jackson kayak but they are very good ones. One of the most recommended if looking for a well made kayak. Only thing I have heard "bad" about them is the outfitting they use on their whitewater kayaks which you should not have to worry about with the coosa. If it is made like...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Any advice on my knife design

    looks like the top of the blade has a slight point/angle to it instead of being flat. I would prefer a flat top. Not sure if you are actually going to produce this or not.
