  1. We watched this earlier in the week. This was very well played by the adults! Great Video!
  2. Hello. It has been just over three years since I was on the forum. It feels as though liife has been a whirlwind over the last five years. I have become a father in law, a grandfather and have hit the mid century mark. I haven't been working on Mausers. I'm not sure if I still have the bug. I have one complete and three projects. I have had the AR BUG for a couple years. After burning a hole in a coworkers ear getting AR info from him (two years of questioning) I finally took the plunge and built a varmint set up for long range shooting and hopefully some hunting along the way. I hope and pray that all are well. I'm sure that others have come and gone. I'll read and try to catch up a bit and hope to be around for a bit. lc
  3. I miss good southern Sweetea! I liked to order it half sweet and half unsweet. It isn't like syrup then but is still good with that strong tea flavor. When we moved up north I was shocked at what was served as iced tea! Tannin water is what it was :-)
  4. Not sure which was better. Clint or the Empty Chair! Loved both. lc
  5. Well said sir. Well said. I was terribly disappoint when President Bush appeared on stage with the Priest, Rabbi, Imam, Pastor (I don't remember the exact order or representation but it was multi-religious) at a 911 commemorative. That act further supported this nominal Christian thinking which is rampant within the church. lc ps. As I understand scripture, the affirmation of Christ's declaration that He is the only way further offends in that all other religions teach that man, of his own will, understanding and power can come to God and make things right, recognize his need. John 1:13 shreds this idea.
  6. Ken,

    Trying to remember what part of AK you're in and was thinking North Pole. Do you know a fella named Tim Calhoun in NP? I knew him in Hobe Sound, Fla back in the mid 80's. Just came across his page on Facebook and was thinking small world.

  7. Under 200 sounds like a good buy if the barrel is clean. If the barrel is bad? Sometimes they shoot well anyway. Will you have a chance to run a cleaning rod through the barrel? does it look like it's pitted? lc
  8. Can you add color to the epoxy to make it blend? Another option is to take some Elmer's glue and the fine dust from sanding the wood and make a thick paste that can be used to fillthe void and stabilize. The dust will help blend in naturally. May want to play with a scrap to test.
  9. Is the knot tight? Loose? Is opened or is the grain tight? Is it inside the barrel channel? Can you post a pic? Maybe a close up and one of the surrounding area? A lot will depend upon the characteristics of the grain around the knot when thinking about wood integrity. lc
  10. The history of the Puritan's is really pretty amazing. The revisionist historians have obvious motive to redefine what we understand of them. Like many, I grew up with a somewhat skewed understanding of their beliefs but a little study is all that is needed undo that. Their view of God and representative government, their influence, is the large reason that this country became a Republic.
  11. "must now grapple with an emboldened and empowered political enemy with its sights set on undoing much of what he accomplished in the last two years" It is interesting that the word "enemy" is being used to continually cast conservatives in a negative light. The very fact that we are "emboldened and empowered" would have us infer that we were subjects/subjected to a greater power. The arrogance of the Left is despicable!!
  12. Interesting concept. I like the idea of a lighter straight walled cartridge in a bolt. I'm not familiar with the way the Caranco (??) is set up but would it ream out to and reliably feed 357 Maximum cartridges? I understand that the Max can really scream out of a rifle where pressures can be pushed up a bit.
  13. karl, Do these types admit to having a "world view" or do they follow more of a post-modern ideology that tunes in to the latest and greatest view of things? Sounds like she is smart enough to realize/recognize that absolutes exist even though she would likely define them by her experience. Do they accept the exacting nature of language? Do they believe that they exist? lc
  14. That was GREAT! His closing line was classic.
  15. Rob, The stain is a good touch. Lets the grain show through. It contrasts nicely with the trim.
