In my younger days, I lived in a rented house with 3 other guys. Since we spent all our money on guns and girls, we only had second hand TVs. When one would die, we'd put it on the curb with a For...

Ship the scope as "optical equipment" and insure it as such. The UPS stores are a joke, USPS is my first choice.
My Palma rifle. I've already been shooting it for the past four years. I'm off to Bisley, England tomorrow to shoot the Imperial Meeting. Been dreaming of this for years.
99.9% of my reloading is .308 and .223 and I use these Giraud trimmers: http://www.giraudtool.com/giraud-tri-way-trimmer.html That way I don't have to do any tool set up, just chuck them in a drill...
Two different rifles made in two different places with the barrels chambered by two different reamers. .30-06 is not real sensitive to bullet jump, you can set your cartridge length for your...
The moth balls won't work, you have to find all the holes and seal them. Seal any hole you find, snakes can squeeze through anything they can get their head through. They can follow mice, some...
I like Frog Lube. Use it where you see wear marks and moving parts. No need to flood it. I'll clean the bolt carrier assembly every time, pretty easy. The barrel gets cleaned when it needs it.
Try another browser and see if that works.
If your brass is 6.5 Creedmoor and you're reloading it as 6.5 Creedmoor, you don't need to separately fireform it. You said you've already full length resized it, just load it and shoot it.
I used to fix his IBM typewriters at his office and showroom on Riverside and Cahuenga. He always had two cars on display, one was always the Batmobile from the TV show. The other would change...
I did the same with my kids! I called that "teaching them the touch" and they can both use hand tools well and are good at following mechanical motion. I've gotten a lot of mileage out of those...
I bought a new stereo for a 2002 Dodge pickup. The stereo came with bluetooth for the cell phone, GPS, and a backup camera. Everything worked great and it wasn't that bad to install. Backup camera...
I have a Ring doorbell, I like it.
I had the original 3 tab asphalt shingle roof on my house replaced a couple of years ago. It was a 15 year roof that lasted 30 years, pure luck in my opinion. I had GAF architectural shingles put...
I can repair any type of IBM typewriter from the model 01 (came out in 1933) to the Selectric Mag Card II. None of this stuff is in use anymore and nobody is collecting them. Still have some tools,...
I don't drive through Chicago with any type of firearms. I shoot the Midwest Palma match every June in Wisconsin and then go visit my daughter and son in law in NW Ohio. I go south through Iowa and...
I remember those light rifle targets from when I was a kid. They were used for one of the NRA Marksmanship Qualification programs. That was a great program that is still in existence. The light...
I used to carry a Browning Hi-Power. On the rare occasion when I had to leave it in the car, I'd take the slide off and put that in the glove compartment and put the frame under the seat and put the...
I've got three wrenches now. There are different nuts now for AR15s, depending on the float tube you have. Try what you have, if the pins line up, you're OK. If not, you'll need to go shopping.
I'm retired and shoot a lot, 45K miles last year going to mostly long range, Palma, and a few XTC matches all over the country. I have never seen the second method used, only the first.
+1 on calling a locksmith. The guy we use for our range locks and member keys says those electronic locks are his job security! I had asked him if I could change my dial lock to electronic and that...
A buddy of mine is a left handed distinguished bullseye shooter and I asked him. He uses a High Standard for the .22 stage and said he has no problems with ejection. Leftie grips were available...
The upside of getting a new tool is that you might end up with a much better battery, especially going from ni-cad to lithium ion.
You can use a cheap, small wireless weather station. The ones that monitor temp and humidity are pretty cheap and work well. My brother uses one to monitor humidity in a crawl space where he's had...
If you've got a ton of those Noslers, I'd stay with them for your Garand. The A-Max's are good bullets but I don't think you'll see much difference at 200 yards. M1s are typically 2-3 minute rifles...
