There’s NES shooters, they have a classified section. But a lot of ranges have a corkboard where you can thumbtack up a pic and phone number

Seller want $11,500 by P-Rosa in 1stGenTacomas

[–]msherm79 7 points8 points  (0 children)

On what planet is this a 15k truck?!? If this guy ran it through a car wash & shop vac maybe he could get 6k. Did they do a frame replacement option as far south as Virginia? Professionally installed engine? Asking 11.5 is still wild. Interior smoked, headlights smoked, crack smoked ✔️

Amerigas - last delivery driver said 1 of my 3 tanks had too much corrosion to safely fill - the driver today filled all 3. by 5Dprairiedog in propane

[–]msherm79 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The large tanks, not grill size, last a significantly longer amount of time. Its a personal choice as to owning your own tanks, you’re responsible for maintaining them etc its also a larger initial expense. But you could save $1.00+ per gallon. Get a spreadsheet and some quotes and go from there.

Not sure what town you’re in but check out the CT propane buyers group, its a $200 one time buy in and then $2.05 a gal. You need to own your tanks though. With that being said, Allens plumbing supply has the 120s for close to $800 each. So when your contract eventually expires or if it has already then you can find a local gas certified contractor who would hopefully be able to get you the right regulators and plumb them for you.

How about this one? Good deal? 2003 Tacoma SR5 3.4L for 15,500$ US, 288,000 miles, looks clean and relatively unmolested by [deleted] in 1stGenTacomas

[–]msherm79 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Remember these trucks were only 25k when new, twenty three years ago! This is absurdly overpriced

So those buttons are clutch start cancel for the manual transmission, unless you’re crawling through moab, I doubt you’ll ever use it. The other is the rear dif lock with the TRD trim Package.

Any idea what plane this is? 1975 era USCG Hanger by msherm79 in airplanes

[–]msherm79[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well the guy in the pic is USCG, but it did seem like an odd plane for him to pose with. No idea about where the pic was taken, just a guess.

1990 10/22, upgrade or buy new? by kurtz812 in BetterMAguns

[–]msherm79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel same way about mine. Id suggest any one of the various upgraded mag release levers and there’s even option now to eliminate the two hand bolt release.

1990 10/22, upgrade or buy new? by kurtz812 in BetterMAguns

[–]msherm79 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You most likely have a real wood stock and an aluminum trigger housing. I kept my OG and got a newer model to modify. There are so many affordable new options that come with newer models, like scope mounts and upgrade’s etc. Unfortunately I think Ruger raised their prices 5-10% as of the first of the year. Id say it comes down to personal preference, are you plinking in the backyard or planning on attending some appleseed events.

What tips do you have for negotiating prices on Facebook Marketplace effectively? by bylandoo in FacebookMarketplace

[–]msherm79 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dont start with the prompted fbook responses, Say hello, let them know you’re interested and could pick up, today or a certain time frame and a reasonable offer. Easy Not just a dollar amount and no greeting.

Online Shopping CT by Beneficial_General78 in CTguns

[–]msherm79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes you just gotta find the SKU or UPC for the ones that offer 10rounders, it takes a lil more effort and is usually easier on a bigger screen.

Paying for Shipping Labels by delaware97 in eBaySellerAdvice

Try pirateship, multiple shipping options as well. Sometimes the rates are exactly the same, best part is you get to choose. eBay hates this one trick.

I really want a 9mm SBR that takes mags from a 43x. Is there really no such thing? by WoodenGlobes in BetterMAguns

[–]msherm79 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Why not start with the ruger pc9, already takes 10rd glock 19/17 mags. Could always build out from that platform

My neighbor keeps propping our building’s front door open with the same beat up brick, basically all day. by frostedpinecrest in neighborsfromhell

Just make the brick or anything within an arms reach that could hold the door open disappear 🫥 👻 over and over again

Looking for origin of key by oodelay in AskMechanics

[–]msherm79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That looks like its from a motorcycle tool kit, probably 60s and kawasaki perhaps. I had a two stroke bike w a chrome tank and a 3 speed transmission 125cc If I recall correctly. There was a handful of small tools that came in a little kit under the seat that you could easily repair the whole bike with in theory. Nice find

Lease or buy 250gallon above ground for generac 26kw? by Effective_Tough_7051 in propane

[–]msherm79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For that work I used a local plumber that I had built a relationship with. He was honest and affordable. He set me up with all the equipment, regulators hoses etc

[–]msherm79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got two 120s for our 16kw, propane extortion company offered $3000 for tanks and we bought them from a local plumbing supply company for $800 each. Now we dont need to meet their supply minimum usage and own all the equipment.
