    That’s all laser checkering. Not cut checkering. 

    That is what through me off when the question was first asked.  Cut checkering is done by hand with a cutter.  Taz missed EOT 2025 because he was having a heart transplant.  Fortunately it looks like he will make EOT 2026.  I have some checkering for him to do.

  2. I have a federal TSP account.  (Thrift Savings Plan)  I have gotten RMDs for several years.  At the end of the year they do a reconciliation to make sure you were paid enough to avoid any penalties.  This year I got a notice via email that a final distribution will be made and to look at my account data for an explanation.  I know many people with various retirement accounts that sometimes wind up getting thousands of dollars at year's end.  I have been car shopping to I looked to see how much I was getting.  I have deleted all the account information but this is the body of the statement.

    My initial reaction was what a waste.  Then I figured all of this stuff is done by computer so no big cost involved.  I don't think the four cents will help my down payment much.😆

    Says it not available at PHX for pickup.

    As long as it says in stock if you check on the order box it will be in Phoenix in a day or two and they will send you an email to pick the gun up.  This is a huge store but the market is black guns so the cowboy stuff isn't always on the shelf.

    I have seen those in western movies.

    Over the years I have watched a lot of westerns in the theatres and dozens of westerns on TV throughout the 50s and 60s and beyond and have never seen anyone wearing boots with a black spandex insert in the side.  I do think I will go down to Boot Barn and see if they have any.  No one has looked at my feet in years.

  5. You can go over to one of the trap websites such as https://www.trapshooters.com and look for some comments on the Tri Stars.  (Most of which are bad.)  Many trap shooters shoot thousands of rounds per year.  The Tri Star will not hold up to any kind of intensive shooting.  The best single barrel entry trap gun is the Browning BT99.  If you are thinking about shooting doubles the Browning Citori CX series is a good entry level gun.
