  1. @Forty Rod SASS 3935 do you plan on having the primer in the brass?
  2. Seems they went beyond that. https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2022/01/04/2021-28398/secure-gun-storage-and-definition-of-antique-firearm From another article: "The definition of an “antique firearm” had the wording for rifles changed from “the explosive in a fixed metallic cartridge” to “an explosive.” Likewise, the language for a shotgun was changed from “the explosive in a fixed shotgun shell” to just “an explosive.” This change, although seemly minor, would move muzzle loading devices and flintlock pistols made before 1898 to the “antique firearms” category."
  3. They make sliding latches with through door handles. Maybe add step plates to the outside to avoid putting too much pressure on the handle. Something like this https://www.amazon.com/Garage-Door-Stuff-LKit-Lock/dp/B0C57ZKXNX/
  4. Or seen too many "help, I've fallen and I can't get up" commercials.
  5. Want to slow down the projects? Remove the hgtv channel from the tv. Approaching 2 years without a major project here.
  6. And babysit your contractor to stop them from doing something stupid. ie. Slope the entire room to the drain, tile up 6" on every wall, tile the entire floor except for the HVAC vent which they lowered to be flush in the floor.
  7. There were these made back then. For women in the factories.
  8. Better yet, I found pictures with scale for you. A third picture shows the light and dark lenses.
  9. Thank you, it should've been obvious. That is why you don't buy a car made at 5pm Friday. @watab kid @Wild Eagle your brains are playing tricks on you. Those lenses are 80 years old and not clear, there is no reference scale in the picture, the goggles are upside down. Flip them over, imagine they are as wide as Ray-Bans, the straight perforated band on your forehead, the lenses more transparent, the frilly trimmed ^ cut seals against the bridge of your nose and your face. You look bugeyed like a horse with goggles.
  10. This post? https://forums.sassnet.com/index.php?/topic/365365-cowboy-guns-for-sale/#comment-4622354
  11. I was scrolling through a military paraphernalia auction and these two lots stumped me. The first lot is easily dismissed as a mistake, the second lot shows intent. Was "googles" a slang term eight decades ago or is this nationally recognized auction house, staffed mostly by women, running a gag?
  12. Looks like a good way to pinch your hand. Glad the Cresent style adjustable wrench took the market. A much better grip and it can be coated without interfering with the adjustability.
  13. Spotify, Slacker, Pandora, iHeart are all internet based services requiring a smart phone data plan. The satellite plan options. https://www.siriusxm.com/choose-plan
  14. You can get satellite radio that will offer many specialty stations. In many late model cars this is as easy as calling 1-800... with your credit card, pay a monthly/annual subscription. Hit the AM/FM button until it reaches satellite, scroll stations like regular radio. The drawbacks are big cities with sky scrapers, tunnels, large overpasses can all block the signal and the continuing subscription fee. Some MP3 players can stream from wireless internet but require downloading music to leave your house. I ripped (saved) CDs to the computer then loaded those to my mp3 player, over 1,000 songs. It plays without fail, no commercials, can play specific playlists I choose or shuffle all songs. A one time fee for the device 20 years ago.
  15. I assumed it was like a bottom rocker. Did a google search to check (big mistake), which caused an immediate loss of interest.
  16. Imagine being that homeowner if they arrived home a bit later. "What kind of demented neighbor would do this? Who squatted on my doorstep?!" Or, in the wild, would you suspect an elephant got lost in the swamp?
  17. It is surprising there are not more dancers in chairs or using canes. Scroll a couple videos below that, https://www.instagram.com/reel/C5bWcM1ryju/
  18. Along with the backwards banana magazìne, the second trigger guard behind the magazine well and neither have a trigger, the forward assist and shell deflector are forward of the ejection port,the strap changing behind the "buttstock".
  19. Imagine working at a hotdog cart in New Mexico in the 80s. Fast forward 30 years, you're homeless in California, find out your identity was stolen with $200,000 in debt. The state decides you're the fraud and the theif in Wisconsin keeps your identity. You're put in a mental institution then jail, serve the time. Get out, call his employer in Iowa who does their own investigation. The theif is finally arrested, he is your coworker from the hotdog cart. It is too ridiculous, has to be a movie. No. It happened. https://www.justice.gov/usao-ndia/pr/former-hospital-administrator-pleads-guilty-identity-theft-scheme-spanned-three
  20. Hope you are damage free J-bar. The tornado procedure here is wait for the siren, put the kids in the cellar, then stand on the porch to watch it. The contractors are still fixing the damage from last year's tornado.
