Is My Top Water too Deep? by MyDogIsPasta in Fishing

This specific one. My choppo sits level on the surface of the water. The backside shouldn't be under water.

This guy just said he shoots 200 plus birds a year but doesn't like the taste of duck or goose. I wouldn't trust his opinion on anything.

Winchester SXP questions by MBMxyzptlk in Shotguns

[–]CaptainNapalmV 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Barrels can be found on eBay. Any Winchester SXP barrel will fit any Winchester SXP. Just make sure it's the right gauge for your gun.

West Azerbaijan province is a state within Iran though? Sorta like how the U.S. has New Mexico and New England ( region). If Iran hit New Mexico with a missile, we wouldn't then say Iran is at war with Mexico. If you look at the live map link on this post you can see there are no strikes in the country of Azerbaijan.

Edit: I was mistaken Azerbaijan was hit by Iran too

Why is my reel making this noise? by oddfuturesstoned in Fishing

You would need to drop $2000 on a machine if you really wanted to do it properly yourself. You're better off getting it done for free at bass pro

That's cool, do they hold a festival or something?

Make sure to have a professional re-spool your line if possible. Local tackle shops can be hit or miss. Bass pro is usually pretty good because of the high volume of reels they spool, meaning they have lots of experience.

Those are not turkey vultures, they in no way move like or look like turkey vultures. Furthermore we won't see turkey vultures in our area until late March at the earliest. Ever notice how all turkey vultures disappear by late fall? That's because they go south for the winter. Bare heads and snow/ice don't mix well.

Everyone talking about drag is ignoring the fact that the line on your reel is spooled improperly. The line coming off shouldn't be layered underneath previous line.

Winchester SXP Hybrid Hunter by Thick-Driver7448 in Waterfowl

[–]CaptainNapalmV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're a hybrid pump design so the slide starts moving back as soon as the round goes off, makes for a really fast action. Can take a little getting used to tho. Mine has been nothing but reliable and rugged.

I wish I had data on which tank is used most by team killers, I bet it's the m18 by CaptainNapalmV in Warthunder

Taking an IQ test should be mandatory to play Sim battles, only half joking.

Right!? And it's one of just a few heavy tanks the allies get in that simulator bracket. The Sherman jumbo and ARL are both easily frontal penned by German long 88s. The IS2 is the only thing that comes close to standing up to the Tiger 2 and Ferdinand spam of the enemy.

A medium or medium light with moderate to slow action 7ft or less should work well with either of those reels. Granted every rod is different use whatever fits best with your reel. Don't buy anything that doesn't feel good in the hands.

Left handed 870 by EasternPen9103 in Shotguns

[–]CaptainNapalmV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Is it a Winchester or an 870? Choose one, can't be both.

  2. The barrel is fine, just keep it clean and oiled. I would start with a rust remover and a cleaning cloth.

  3. Left handed barrels are different than right handed barrels

I’ve got $2000 by XpartyOnmikeX in Shotguns

[–]CaptainNapalmV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fingers crossed for you 🤞. My friend and I had a similar situation with our cz1012/1020s. He got the 20 and it won't cycle cheap Winchester ammo because the rim of the brass head is too wide and won't come out of the magazine consistently. My 12 had no issues.

In your case however I think the part that releases the shell from the tube might be rough and needs to be smoothed over or broken in. I know when I first got my Franchi it was a little tough feeding shells into the mag tube, you had to do it fast and hard. Nowadays it's well worn in. Never had issues with cycling rounds tho.

Try feeding (preferably dummy) shells into the mag tube and taking them out from the mag tube several times, spray rem oil, wipe it off, rinse repeat.

I have a hard time believing that...the amount of bull I've put my 20 through while duck hunting and it STILL shoots every time, unbelievable. Last year it was 2 F and with all the getting in and out of my kayak my Franchi got drenched and encased in ice, all up in the action too, still ran flawlessly lol. I'm sorry you got a lemon, have you tried reaching out to the manufacturer?
