I'm with you, it is appalling what passes for a quality firearm these days. With few exceptions, I do my best not to buy anything made after 1995 or so. A few years ago, I found a brand new stainless Mini Thirty with walnut stock on the shelf when they had been on backorder for months. It looked...
Don't cry. You seem like a man of good taste, having beat me to a number of deals on here, sometimes by mere minutes. If you're a year into it, surely it's nearing completion and you'll be ready for another!

The Koreans have come a long way since '53...
Corporate espionage and reverse engineering go a long way, but with the Red Dragon right up the road or across the ditch, I'd do whatever I could to stay on top.
The rev limiter is usually set at a considerably lower RPM on vehicles with automatic transmissions, compared to the same engine with a manual behind it.
Waiting for a ban on filterless cigarettes and pointed scissors..
Cut of a different cloth they were back then, my condolences..
I didn't know Maw obviously, but I've known, loved and miss the kind, and something tells me she wouldn't want you spending too long grieving. She might tell you to pick yourself up by the bootstraps, strike while the arn's hot, or...
I saw a sign for the one at Rhema, and then passed it accidentally while making my rounds. It took a great deal of self-control to not whip around right there and go blow my wad within five minutes and then feel empty inside. Good sense prevailed.
That guy has taught me a few things I missed in history class. [Do they even teach that in school anymore?] When he gets carried away at the climax of a naval battle or a brave Confederate victory in a little-known skirmish, it is almost too much to bear, but I do anyway.
Morton Buildings are top notch. Some years ago I was a construction manager on a wind job and the O&M building was subbed to Morton. I was a real prick when it came to QC/QA. There was nothing, not one single item that was not built to code and per spec. I am not easily impressed. I was...
Jesus boots and a blowgun.
Strange question. Next will be, "Are 9s still okay after labor day?" And matching your neck knife to your grips, stay tuned-
Interesting time period to be in strange places far away... Wink.
That makes nearly half a dozen such incidents I believe, wingless, filigreed, et cetera. The Warthog will remain an absolutely essential aircraft to our mission as a nation for the next 25 years probably, unless we go M.A.D...
What an admirable and heroic young lady. That is not a good one to auger-in with, not that any really are, but she kept that bird and herself from going tits up. Green checkmark.
