Yes... another stock pinning thread
I did the same thing with an iMod stock on my Colt LE901. Only difference is that I used a dab of JB Weld over the socket end of the set screw. Even without the JB Weld, I believe the spirit of the law is met. The stock is not readily collapsible without using a tool.

I've done my first snowblower pass of the neighborhood. Normally, my next door neighbor and I do 'dueling snowblowers, he takes one side of the street and I take the other. This year, his machine is OOC, so it's on me. Making cornbread and heating up chili.

I will usually go out with the snowblower a couple of times. Much easier that way.

Storm preps done. Ready to ride it out. Here's a good start to a pot of chili. Tonight, it will be delicious. Tomorrow, it will be amazing. There will be corn bread too, cooked in a cast iron skillet, of course.

Driving Pet Peeves
Lol. Growing up in Texas, and being a 4wd loving redneck, I DO laugh at the dumbasses who think that it makes them invincible. I'm smart enough to realize 2 truths about 4wd. 1). While 4wd may give you better traction in the snow, it doesn't make you STOP better in the snow. 2) 4wd just gets you stuck further out. My fellow Texans, God bless them, don't have a clue how to drive in the snow. On a side note, I was at the ranch in west Texas last Christmas, and we had a pretty big storm (for Texas). We got 6". Less than an inch of snow can shut down a town, because we simply have no way to remove snow, like they do up here. By and large, most areas don't even have salt or sand trucks. You can imagine the chaos a little bit of snow can cause because of this. My ranch is 7 miles from town, and all my roads are dirt. It's about 2 miles to the main road (paved). Because of this, I was snowed in at the house for 2 days until it melted. I had enough provisions for it not to be an issue, but a bigger/longer lasting storm could have sucked.

Driving Pet Peeves
I drive between 30-40K miles a year, mostly for my job. The 'left lane bandits' seem to be most prevelant in the northeast. Most of them, I find, have NY plates. Extremely dangerous drivers. They should be flogged until their skin peels from their bodies, then dipped in 100% isopropyl alcohol. That's what goes through my head when I encounter one on the road.

Could be. I think I actually got to pay more attention the second time around. The 3D was amazing.
