Structure Gurus / Engineers? - Detached Garage Raising Rafters
thanks for the term correction rightisright, Jack, I would figure the same thing, but I hardly passed geometry in high school so Im not 100% sure. Rightisright, So do i have a 'non structual' ridge? thanks Even though raising them up 1/3 SHOULD be good, I'd leave two at the height at the very ends , well front and back in my case. Right up against the walls. Doesnt really get in the way of headroom, and might make me sleep better at night, Is this something I should consider worth while? Or dont even bother. -alec

Structure Gurus / Engineers? - Detached Garage Raising Rafters
i've got a 2 car detached garage that I'd like to pull a little more head room out of by raising the rafters, I've heard of this being done successfully before, but I dont know much about it. I've read somewhere you can raise it as high as 1/3 of the total peak. Currently, there are only (3)Three 2x6 rafters going from end to end. Were these likely there to hold the walls together while building ? Anyway, here are some pics I took when I moved in years ago.

Kids gun for steel / uspsa shoots
Firstly, .22LR isnt allowed in USPSA, luckily for you OBRPC has OBRAMS Match once a month ( starts up again in april IIRC ) OBRAMS is a USPSA Style match that utilizes .22LR handguns and rifles. There is a minimum age requirment for OBRAMS, I cant remember at this time - not sure if 9 years old makes the cut. The match director " Iggyort " is a member here, and will probably chime in. Steel Challenge though has no age requirment and is a great platform for new shooters and young shooters alike. Some popular entry level .22 guns are the Ruger Mark Series, GSG 1911/Sig 1911 , M&P series, etc. The GSG 1911 will probably be a good choice since it has readily avaiable holsters and options, and will prepare him for when he decideds to move up to a higher caliber like 9mm or 45, though personally IMO I feel the Ruger Mark 2 / 3 are the best 22 handguns on the market. -Alec

Will my shotgun be illegal
Definitately not, Joe Biden says you need a Double Barrel shotgun. And if danger fire your only two rounds out your backdoor into the air.

1 characteristic bill
Seriously, alot of revolvers produced today have 8 rounds. The technology has been around for hundreds of years, yet in 2013 - we decide that's too dangerous now. I hate this planet.

2/17/13 - Steel @ OBRPC
I would recommend taking the side plate off and filling the internals of your revolver with sand if you want to match your issued service trigger.

2/17/13 - Steel @ OBRPC
plus, cocking the revolver into single action for every shot is a colossal waste of time.

In stock form ? Comprable to any standard N- frame. I'd say 12-14 lbs at least from the factory. With a litte work you can achive 7-8 lbs , and 5lbs utilizing federal primers
