Cleaning cast iron cookware is easy. Just add water and bring it to a boil. Then pour out the water and loosened food particles. Remove any stubborn bits with a little scotch Brite. Rinse well and put on the burner and heat till the water all evaporates. Then oil with your favorite cooking oil. Set aside and allow to cool. I store my cast iron in the oven.

Well I'll be the one to say it, Lodge cast iron is JUNK. Their spray on seasoning is CRAP. Now before you say I'm wrong hear me out. Pick up any antique piece of cast iron cookware and examine it closely. Notice how smooth the cooking surface is. Now look closely a a piece of Lodge cast iron. Notice how rough the surface is? This is because Lodge cuts out the most important and costly step in making case iron cookware. Polishing the cooking surface before seasoning. Your grandma's cast iron isn't smooth because of years of seasoning. It's smooth because the porous sand cast surface was sanded smooth before it left the factory.

Emergency Chocolate Cake This ultra-easy chocolate cake, made without eggs, milk and butter, is also known as crazy cake because it doesn’t require ingredients standard to most cakes. It’s said to originate during the Great Depression when ingredients were scarce—hence another of its monikers, chocolate Depression cake. Cocoa powder rather than bar chocolate supplies the chocolate flavor and rich color. Either Dutch-processed (i.e., alkalized) cocoa or natural cocoa works, just be sure it is unsweetened. Water is the traditional liquid for these cakes, but we prefer coffee, as it bolsters the chocolate notes. If you prefer, decaf or simply water can be used in both the batter and the icing. The flavor will be a little milder but still good. For the cake:: 260 grams (2 cups) all-purpose flour 43 grams (½ cup) unsweetened cocoa powder (see headnote) 273 grams (1¼ cups) packed light or dark brown sugar 1¼ teaspoons baking soda ½ teaspoon table salt 1¼ cups coffee (see headnote), room temperature 1 cup neutral oil 1 tablespoon white vinegar 1 tablespoon vanilla extract For the icing:: 155 grams (1¼ cups) powdered sugar 22 grams (¼ cup) unsweetened cocoa powder 3 tablespoons coffee, room temperature, plus more if needed 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 teaspoon neutral oil For the icing: 155 grams (1¼ cups) powdered sugar 22 grams (¼ cup) unsweetened cocoa powder 3 tablespoons coffee, room temperature, plus more if needed 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 teaspoon neutral oil Step 1 Heat the oven to 350°F with a rack in the middle position. Mist an 8-inch square glass baking dish or metal baking pan with cooking spray. Step 2 To make the cake, in a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, brown sugar, baking soda and salt, breaking up any lumps of cocoa and sugar. Make a well in the center and to it add the coffee, oil, vinegar and vanilla; whisk the wet to combine, then whisk them into the dry ingredients just until evenly moistened. Do not overmix. The batter will be fluid. Step 3 Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Bake until a toothpick inserted at the center of the cake comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes. Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Step 4 In a large bowl, whisk the sugar and cocoa until no lumps remain. Add the coffee, vanilla and oil; whisk until smooth. The icing should be thick but spreadable, with a consistency similar to pourable yogurt. If it is too stiff, whisk in additional coffee 1 teaspoon at a time until the proper consistency is achieved. Step 5 After the cake has cooled; Pour the icing onto the center of the cake in the pan, then spread evenly. Let stand at least 30 minutes before cutting and serving.

Sod Hoppers are worth the money. With standard care they will outlast you. I believe @Blackwater 53393 has a pair.

The propellant used has NOTHING to due with barrel leading. Barrel leading is caused by one or more of the below reasons 1. Using a bullet that is too small for the bore. (Allows Gas cutting) 2. Using a bullet that is too hard for the given velocity. (Bullet fails to properly obturate, allowing gas cutting) 3. Using a bullet that is way too soft for the given velocity. (High pressures force their way past the bullet resulting in Gas cutting) 4. Using a lube that is too hard for a given velocity. (Lube fails to properly seal the imperfections between bullet and bore. Allowing gas cutting.) 5. Using a lube that is too soft for a given velocity. (Excessive pressure forces past the lube causing gas cutting.) At CAS velocities hard cast bullets are not needed. Anything harder than 14 is way too hard for our game.

Cimmaron Armi Sport 1892 .357 Disassembly/Manufacture Year
Sedalia Dave replied to MikeGee's topic in SASS Wire
All 92s are close enough in design that they can be disassembled and reassembled using the same instructions. The video that Nate Kiowa Jones Sells is worth the cost as it not only shows the easiest method for disassembly and reassembly the rifle. It includes the information for slicking up the action. -

I agree with the article. A premature detonation would have done a lot more damage and wouldn't have gone unnoticed. -

The reason I'd rather carry a 45 over a 9 is because of better and more consistent ammo performance. It's amazing to me how inconsistent a lot of self defence ammo is. Especially in 9mm. Lack of over penetration and consistent expansion are the two things I look for in self defense ammo. I find it interesting that most ammo brands that perform well in 45 do not perform well in 9 and vice versa.
