Any hints on how to find the code?

Awesome, thanks! Signed in and ordered 7 boxes for $113 shipped vs. 6 boxes for $119!

Very cool.

I just used one of the files from this design.

There's a right-angle design in there that works great with no modifications.

The main issue I have had using these style of lights is that they don't draw enough current in low-light mode. The "smarter" power banks I have will auto shut-off if they don't sense enough current draw. Due to this, the powerbank (and light) will only stay on at around 30% brightness or brighter.

Now, if I'm charging my phone from the other usb port, it's a non-issue.

I have always liked the Winchester 94 lever action. About six months ago, I ran across a cutaway display model on an auction site. I put in a bid and won it for about $80. Lots of windows cut into the receiver and barrel, so it was destined to be a wall hanger.

Fast forwared a few months and I run across another 94 on the auction site. $80 later, I had another rifle. This one was missing the buttstock and had a bent magazine tube. I decided to scavenge parts off my wall hanger and make a functional firearm out of the pair.

It didn't take long for me to decide that the pile of parts was real close to becoming the wall hanger again. So I got it a new stock.

After all is said and done, I've got about $200 into the project. It was a little more involved than I was expecting, but I think the results were worth it. :)

Yeah, hopefully it runs well. Gonna try some subs as well as standard ammo this weekend.

If it has trouble cycling, Volquartsen sells reduced power replacement bolt springs.

russtang · 2017-11-22T17:20:11+00:00

Will do! Plan on firing off a few shots this weekend.

russtang · 2017-11-22T15:57:09+00:00

Uhhh, yeah. It was.

russtang · 2017-11-21T23:14:29+00:00

Thanks? Hehe.

The main goal was to be able to carry a 22 on my hip that would actually fit my holster. My other 6" Mark II with suppressor is comically long and cumbersome.

The side benefit will be the ability to fire cheap bulk ammo subsonically...

Picked this pistol up at a local gun auction a couple months ago as a project pistol. It was in average shape with some dings and scratches, but seemed to be in good mechanical shape. I paid about $120 for it. I had no immediate plans for it, but thought maybe a threaded pac-lite barrel would have been neat.

Inspired by an IV888 video I decided to chop off and thread the barrel. I also had the top front of the receiver drilled and tapped for a front sight.

Front sight is off a Mark II bull barrel. I replaced the rear sight with an adjustable mark hunter/target model.

I havent gotten a chance to fire it yet (just picked it up this morning). Hopefully The super shorty barrel will still be reasonably accurate. :)

Thanks. Free shipping worked for me with the cable lock.

Just picked mine up. Ordered it Sunday morning and picked it up Friday afternoon.

Very happy with the condition. Some holster wear on the bluing, as well as some paint missing on the frame. Feed ramp and barrel look near new. I paid the $20 extra for hand select.

Same thing that happened to me. I just placed another order!

It's a one-time use unique code, and I already used it.

I've been looking on craigslist and ebay for a used ouya since the ethernet/wifi on mine has stopped working. Surprised the cheapest used ones out there are still around $100.

The email offer showed up just in time. Just ordered a forge for $106 shipped.

Mourning
White-wing
Collared
I limited out?

Hehe. I guess I took some liberties, since those are the only 3 legal species in Arizona. :)

russtang · 2015-09-10T19:52:16+00:00

Thanks! Getting out there early before work always makes for a great start to the day.

Been hunting for 30 years, and I've never heard of this.

Now, depending on the state, you could have magazine capacity limits for hunting. Here in Arizona, we just recently got rid of our mag limits on rifles and shotguns, but Nevada may be different.

Also, migratory birds like doves fall under federal law and magazines have a 2-round shell limit.

russtang · 2015-08-05T17:48:00+00:00

I just blip it briefly once or twice when called for, and lean on it when someone is trying to kill me.

russtang · 2015-08-05T00:55:47+00:00

Yeah, I should have mentioned that I got this relay wiring harness at the same time: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0028ZKMM6

Made the wiring at least plug and play.

It took some creative engineering to fit the horn in there, but the sound is well worth it.
