irish ike, SASS #43615

The answer is 3!

Classifieds are shrinking, and SASS affiliated Vendors are the same. People going out of business as demand as shrunk. In 15 years SASS will be?

Just passing on the reality of going into the canyons. Is that OK?

Sort of like buying a day fishing license in California. If you catch a few Trout they end up costing $10/pound!

It will be hot, damn hot.

Just announced Dolly has left us. She was 80 years old. A fantastic person.

I wanna know why they don't have hearing protection where he's at?

American Graffiti came out and we learned Wolfman was.....white!

Barefoot next to 8,000 degrees. I wonder if the propeller is balance dis some way before installing?

I shoot an 1867ish Rolling Block in 50-45, Navy carbine. If you bring the hammer back and flip the block it throws out the brass. Hard to find. I tried a Trapdoor but they are way heavy with the barrel length.

Stupid faces have provided him with lots and lots of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Not so stupid now ehh?

I've been debating with the locals here about DC's. They are being built around us and or are planned. This whole water thing was started by a few DC's back east that pumped water in directly from the aquifer to cool and then pumped it back out. The issue was the aquifer wasn't refilling. The water was going into local stream or river. Millions of gallons. The new DC's are using contained systems. The small ones are using traditional refrigerant based cooling in roof mounted units...a bunch of them. The larger ones are using a closed loop chilled water system. Fill the pipes once and come back in 5 years to drain and refresh the system. No different than any large office building. Locally we are a high desert City with limited water resources. So that system is being used here. They take a huge amount of power. Whats happening is the locals think that if the power company needs to expand its capacity the locals will have to pay for it with higher rates. They can't grasp the concept that as their city grew with population the power company increased its capacity. and the locals paid for that. Some of the larger DC's and multiple building campuses are finding that its easier to build their own generation system. Gas fired turbines. The local power can't bring the power in time. But now the demand for gas turbines has reached the point that they say theres a 2 year waiting list.

Thats what I shoot in my 50-45 Rolling block Navy carbine.

If the lever is just flopping around the spring is broke. Very common occurrence. You can get the spring from VTI Gunparts. I ordered 2. You can relace the spring yourself. No special tools or experience to do so. https://www.vtigunparts.com/store/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=289&cat=770+-+Sharps+'Boss'+1874+model for the spring The Sharps has no bands but it has 2 screws holding ont eh forearm.

I wonder how many $billions each one costs?

Isn't someone trying to start making GOEX again. The factory came apart violently. I never shot anything but BP in my 20 years of shooting. Health issues mad ene stop. But I had 80 lbs stockpiled of GOEX. It went like Trailboss when I offered it out.

WOW, you guys got official baseball pants. We got a T-shirt, hat, and wore our jeans and tennis shoes. Which no one ever played tennis with them.

6 stages, 60 rounds, real BP, no issues ever.

I went a different approach. I use Wonder Wads. But they don't have much lube. I soaked them in my long range bullet lube. 50/50 bees wax and crisco. I can shoot 6 stages without touching them. I also used the Mobile red lube on the base pin.

Well, Google pipe cleaners. There are a bunch of companies selling them.

73's in 38 are the most popular. The 66's don't have a lever safety. Rugers are a somewhat clone of the Colt. Dang rugged great pistols. Schofields. I had a pair and sold them. They are heavy and the grip position in relationship to the hammer is difficult if you shoot dualist. As you'll see, most shooters shoot Colts, Colt clones, or Rugers. 38 is great because it will do everything required. And the ammo is the cheapest if you don't reload.

Antique manure spreaders!

I'd offer he didn't listen to the Native scouts and let his ego think he could beat the "savages".

The whole purpose of a "closed" loop system is once its filled it runs. In theory it will need to be replaced in about 5 years. And the chemicals in it have to go through a neutralizing process before bing put into the storm system or sewer system. As to power, if the local electrical is that bad then They must be going to set up their own generating system. And no one would run generartors 24/7 as normal power. Diesel is at $5/gallon or ? there. Lithium battery fires. Sure but the building will have fire suppression systems in it. Not sure what plums are being sent downstream. I don't care if they build another DC anywhere. But, locally everyone got up in arms because of all the wrong info being read on the internet. So I pushed back with facts. Based on the actual design drawings approved by the city.

If the DC's are up to speed they will be using cooling systems that don't use constant flow of water for cooling. Chilled water closed loop systems. The accidents are caused by construction traffic. The DC's themselves employ very few people. But those that work there will need housing, food, gas, etc helping? the local economy. Fire risk from what? Servers in an enclosed building with a fire suppression system. With the power demand the larger DC's are building their own generation system. Maybe thats what they're doing. And the emergency generators come on during a power failure once the internal battery back up system declines and needs charging. Not arguing or being a disruptor but.. When this whole DC the sky is falling thing started I stared doing research. Most of the "bd" things are the result of internet repeating some bad things that have happened. But it turned into all DC's do that. Locally I downloaded the approval design drawings submitted to the City. I found out what was really being done locally.
