Without going into details I know a woman who is a suicide attempt survivor who is still struggling with both the original causes of her choice as well as brain damage from the incident. She went missing for a time recently, and we weren't sure whether she had left the world, but she has been...
I am so sorry. May God bless you during your time of loss.
Ah Lord, life isn't easy sometimes, but You give us your eternal promise. May those who grieve find comfort in your love.
Well I said we rarely have big fires where I live, but it has been so hot and dry this year (I haven't noticed any cloud seeding) and we had one 16 miles north of us. I was outside around 6 pm cleaning up after doing some sprinkler repairs when the wind suddenly picked up and I immediately took...
I am inclined to think that cheaper pairs aren't really worth it. I have some electronic Walkers, they aren't horrible, but they aren't great and I absolutely feel you need to use earplugs underneath. At this point I wish I had just gone non-electric to save money for my typical range needs...
If it is taking that much effort to clean out I would certainly shoot it and see how it goes. If it shoots fine, then I wouldn't worry about it. If it has some trouble with accuracy then I would shoot enough rounds through it to know it has had some break in, clean in between any sessions, and...
I have never checked what caliber a 12 gauge barrel comes out as... .71 caliber sounds fun though! :D I feel like I remember people shooting with patched roundballs out of smoothbores but I don't remember anymore. I think it is hard to get great accuracy beyond 50-75 yards without rifling, but...
It seems the inspector didn't know to check for the quality of the wood under the foam. :confused: When we started noticing issues two years in, even the foundation professionals didn't find the problem. We had to go down there ourselves, start knocking on wood till we heard something...
Can you come to my house? :ROFLMAO: Some genius decided to spray foam the entire foundation of the house I'm in before I move in (probably to hide problems) and now the entire thing is rotting. 😓 There seems to be miles of this stuff to remove in order to make room for new foundation pieces.
If anybody is curious about learning gunsmithing, check out the American Gunsmithing Institute. They are who I will be learning from when I get together some funds and a space in the garage. They are true gunsmiths that teach actual function, not part swapping, and you learn from videos at home...
I wish I could say I could do it, I had taken some gunsmithing training and became an AR-15 and Glock armorer, but life changes and sickness have kept me from getting a finished education. I think Aberhan's advice is good though, in the case of some of your needs, you probably can find someone...
