Probably. It's lifted garter snakes, toads, more than one chipmunk and hurled 'em like 10', but they are pretty small compared to rattlers.

They aren't $1,000.00, a pro grade blower can be had for around $500 when they go on sale. The difference between a $250 unit and a $500 unit is night and day. You get more value out of the additional $150 to $250 spent on a pro grade blower than you do out of the entire $250 one may spend on a consumer grade unit. Under powered blowers are a maddening waste of time. If you need a tornado, then you need a walk behind blower. We have a 13hp Little wonder that will knock you off your feet.

Under powered for serious work. A sub 500 cfm blower will blow grass clippings and some leaves and a few pebbles, but it does not compare to pro grade equipment. We use Husqi 580 series and RedMax EZB 8560 series. They will strip black walnuts, acorns, twigs up to two inches, pebbles plowed onto grass and make a much bigger pile of leaves. You can do all that with a smaller blower, but it will take you 5x the time to do it. There is no replacement for displacement.

You have the correct thread pattern, TS and ATI both use Beretta-Benelli-Mobile compatible tubes. ATI is nowhere near the quality of Beretta, so I would not be surprised if the ATI threads are out of spec. You can try a few things. First, try another set of tubes, I'm sure you know someone with a shotgun that has the same thread pattern, or try the tubes that came with the TS in the ATI. If you have a caliper, measure the ATI tube and compare it to the Carlson. Lastly, you can try using a Beretta choke wrench with a thread chaser, using the chaser to clean and repair boogerd up threads.

That makes no sense at all. Is it just your eyes that react, or are you getting contact dermatitis on exposed skin too? It could also be environmental. Have you done any work outside the shop and still had the same result?

That will never happen. Do you have any idea how many illegal aliens that would piss off.

Redmax or Husqvarna. DO NOT GO CHEAP, get the best one you can barely afford. Plan on spending about $450 to $500 for anything worthwhile. Get the kind with a frame mounted throttle, not a throttle on the tube. They always break or malfunction. There is noting more annoying than an under powered leaf blower. Here's a tip, they are ALL under powered because you cannot have too much power in a back pack blower. Buy ear plugs.

Don't quote me on this because I wasn't paying too close attention, but I recall reading a couple weeks ago something that suggested Americans have lost almost 3 Trillion in personal wealth since Biden was elected.

I've been through a couple of few bottles of Knob Cleek. It's not bad at all, but I think it's over hyped. Definitely a fall-winter bottle. btw, my grandfather was friends with whatever Laird was jack'n them apples, up until the 80s. They were both F&AM, same buffalo lodge or something.

Is that the blend with wood alcohol and formaldehyde? : )~ My wife picked up a bottle of BT for me a few weeks ago, $35 I think. Apparently it is popular with fire fighters. I liked it, has a smooth vanilla noted flavor which mixes well with many of my favorite drink recipes. Also used it in a bourbon glaze I made for some flat iron steaks. It also sips nicely from a flask around the fire pit.

I forgot to tell you, I changed my opinion on 5.7n. It is WAY too much trouble. I thought the "angle" was going to be reloading, but components are scarcer than hens teeth, and what little is out there saves no money. The round does not lend itself to reloading easily and economically like 223.

Can I Speak to Mom? Hello?” “Hi honey this is Daddy. Is Mommy near the phone?” “No Daddy. She’s upstairs in the bedroom with Uncle Paul.” After a brief pause, Daddy says, “But honey, you haven’t got an Uncle Paul.” “Oh yes I do, and he’s upstairs in the room with Mommy, right now.” Brief Pause. “Uh, okay then, this is what I want you to do. Put the phone down on the table, run upstairs and knock on the bedroom door and shout to Mommy that Daddy’s car just pulled into the driveway.” “Okay Daddy, just a minute.” A few minutes later the little girl comes back to the phone. “I did it Daddy.” “And what happened honey?” he asked. “Well, Mommy got all scared, jumped out of bed with no clothes on and ran around screaming. Then she tripped over the rug, hit her head on the dresser and now she isn’t moving at all!” “Oh my God!!! What about your Uncle Paul?” “He jumped out of the bed with no clothes on, too. He was all scared and he jumped out of the back window and into the swimming pool. But I guess he didn’t know that you took out the water last week to clean it. He hit the bottom of the pool and I he isn’t moving either.” Long Pause Longer Pause Even Longer Pause Then Daddy says, “Swimming pool? Is this 486-5731?”

This is just a wild guess. Maybe IdentiGO blocked out a certain percentage of time slots for people NOT getting a CCW, There are lots of jobs out there that require fingerprinting. Maybe they anticipated that some NJ folks would go to PA, maybe they didn't, either way, it's an unexpected windfall. The one thing I'm pretty sure of is this; If they are making bank with things set up the way they are now, even if there are NJ time slots available, they are not going to put the brakes on the gravy train any time soon. In any case, Murphy and identiGO are killing polar bears and tree frogs by making people use more gas to get their prints done. But that's okay, it was never about polar bears and tree frogs, as long as they are making money and fucking over gun owners, it's all good.

Current "new normal" pricing for 147gr NATO surplus is between.70 to .95 cpr., depending on where you look. Add $30 for the can and bandoleers.

Every farmer in Ukraine that can farm, is farming. They are literally farming in the middle of a war. You can't not produce food, people all over the world are depending on it to feed families and livestock. I believe there may have been a couple shipments of grain to Africa out of Odessa.

Ukraine is huge in agriculture. There is a lot of history about how the Soviets would make them grow crops and then they'd take the harvest to Russia and sell the rest on the export market. Do a search on Holodomor.

Glad you enjoyed hanging out with us. you are welcome to join any time. Just keep an eye out for the notifications.

I appreciate the offer, but my reloading mentor would murder me. As a rule, I don't use open power that I didn't open myself.

I will be there at 0900. Rain isn't until after 4. btw look for a white 2005 Silverado extended cab.

We'll definitely get something together. Yep, yep.I've cranked out around 1250 trap loads so far, most of 'em even worked. My last batch had some issues because of a couple stoopid mistakes. I tore down the press as much as I could without me needing three hands to reassemble. Cleaned it up good, got new powder washer and primer feeder spring, and made a few small adjustments. It runs slicker than snot on a doorknob now.
