WTS: Ammo cans
WTS USGI 50 cal ammo cans. I have 13 in total. All are in good condition or better and all seals intact. $15 each, cash and carry. Local pick up only in Stratford NJ, 08084. I will NOT ship, will NOT deliver. Since this is a sale of multiple items, post ‘I’ll take xx number of cans” in the thread, and send me a PM and we’ll work out details. Again, I have 13 cans in total.

My assessment was raised in ‘16 (I think), the tax RATE remained the same, but the assessed value went up. The Republican mayor of my town make a big deal about telling everyone their taxes weren’t going up… Call it what you want, at the end of the day, I pay MORE in property taxes.- 14.4 pounds of brisket
I’ve always used 200° as a target, but the ‘poke test’ is the best indicator IMHO. That’s when the temperature probe slides into the meat like it’s warm butter. Pink butcher paper beats foil. As 10X points out, foil will make the bark soft.- 2021 Housing Market Crisis

Mine hits the market Sept1. I hope the market holds strong.- Why, it's Paradise (Golf, that is)! ...in Flemington, NJ. :-)
I’m glad you’re expanding your horizons with another sport!! Golf is quite enjoyable, even if you’re playing by yourself.- Why, it's Paradise (Golf, that is)! ...in Flemington, NJ. :-)
Short game is everything. From 100ish yards out to the cup. Learn to putt. Obsessively learn to putt.- Why, it's Paradise (Golf, that is)! ...in Flemington, NJ. :-)
And I HIGHLY recommend this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1288397.Combat_Golf Avoid golf ‘gadgets’. You don’t need them. When you go to the driving range, take ONE club. Whatever the ‘club of the day’ is, bring that one. Leave all the rest at home. This way makes you focus on learning to hit that one club, and you won’t be tempted to grab another one when you get frustrated. You WILL get frustrated.- Why, it's Paradise (Golf, that is)! ...in Flemington, NJ. :-)
Always address the ball exactly the same way every single time. If you wag your ass 3 times when lining up your shot, by God, wag your ass 3 times every single time. It is like a religion….an OCD religion! One of the best things you will every do for your game is to get clubs fitted to you, and your swing style.- Why, it's Paradise (Golf, that is)! ...in Flemington, NJ. :-)
I went to college on a golf scholarship. Great game. If you want to be good at it, you have to be disciplined. Almost OCD in the way you do things.- Daily humor thread
- Ciatterelli singh debate tonight. Now!!
I have never heard that statement. Even by people drunk in a bar- Ciatterelli singh debate tonight. Now!!
It is ‘Obamanomics’. Unfortunately most voters will (willingly) ignore that.- PORK ROLL or TAYLOR HAM!?
So sad for you, Peel. Let the delusions of ham go.- PORK ROLL or TAYLOR HAM!?
If it can’t be called ham, it must NOT be ham!! Therefore, it’s pork roll.- Daily humor thread
- Another AR-15 Now???
Good point. Because freedom.- Another AR-15 Now???
Hell, I found 2 lowers I had forgotten I had. One of them I haven’t even assembled. All my 14.5” carbines wear a muzzle brake..and while they are perfectly effective, I’m going to be changing them out for A2X flash hiders when I move. Why? Part personal preference, partially because freedom. I doubt I’ll unpin stocks, simply because I have them where I like them.- Another AR-15 Now???
Is that ALL???? Damn. And I thought you were tactical, and all that shit.- Cz 1012
After living with the CZ712 Utility for awhile now. I’ve found out what I liked, and, more importantly, what I DIDN’T like about this shotgun. Mostly, I love this little gun out of the box, but there are a couple of minor things I thought could stand improvement. I didn’t like the bolt handle. It’s small, and had some sharp-ish edges that bit into my hand when I tried to rack the bolt quickly. I also thought the bolt release was a little far back for my hand. Especially since I only have 9 fingers. There isn’t much available in aftermarket support for CZ shotguns ( a drawback), but fortunately, CZ offers a few upgrade parts. They had an extended bolt handle and a extended slide release for a reasonable cost, so I bought both. CZ ships FAST too! The installation of these parts was easy and straightforward. The only hangup I had was that I didn’t push the pin holding the bolt release all the way back in. This prevented me from installing the bolt. Took me all of 2 mins to figure out the problem. Once I sorted that out, everything went together simply. All told, it took about 10 minutes to add both these upgrades. I’ll be adding a +3 mag extension to this, once I move to Texas… Basic function test works perfectly! Cant wait to get to the range with it for some real world fun! **The damn pics didn’t post in order, but you get the idea.- Where are my Singh supporters now?
Hmmmmm- Hard time finding websites that will ship to NJ
I think they did that when the NJ States Attorney sued a couple of companies for shipping gun parts/ammo to NJ residents. - 2021 Housing Market Crisis
