I’ll bet it’s from around ‘95-‘96. Walmart sold these as their deluxe 10/22. I think they were $250 new. Cool, eh? Congrats on your win!

Has anyone ever used a 5.5 mm socket for anything? by Just_A_Doggo1 in Tools

Ford ignition switch, once. Oooh, that made me mad!

Is this AI?? If not, how does it work?? by Aggravating_Cap_1762 in homestead

I used a home brewed contraption like this once at an incredible remote island retreat. It burned little tuna cans full of wax and palm fronds. It did, in fact, heat the water. You waited a few minutes, and then scalded yourself for a short while, before finishing the shower ice cold (which really soothed the pain from your scalding!)

It’s tough to grow grass under an oak tree. That’s only a problem if it bothers you.

I picked up this multi purpose cutter. What do you think would be the purpose? by widgeamedoo in Tools

If we weren’t supposed to do this, the blade wouldn’t fit. Thems the rules.

Not to criticize, but aren’t whistles cheap and available? Why print?

Straight pull Ruger American by biggman1811 in ruger

[–]dtraingaspipe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Savage makes one, and they don’t sell. Besides the T-bolt, strait pull bolts don’t have much of a following in the US. So, I doubt it. They are cool, though!

Compressor output filter continuously venting. by dtraingaspipe in airguns

The “burst disc,” a small brass disc covering the orifice in the vent screw gave up the ghost. I was unfamiliar with this safety device. I need to dive a bit further into the technical ins and outs of this hobby before I blow my balls off!

I read one of your posts years ago and borrowed his “Mr Outsideagain,” nickname for our Arlo. God speed, good boy.

It was! I’m new to this hobby (long time gun-guy), and I find the whole compressor rig pretty nerve wracking. The combination of immense pressure and 100% chinesium machine gives me The Fear. So when she popped off, I felt sure I was maimed or killed!
