Buy a small real gold bead pierced ear earring. Cheap, never tarnish, you can drill or just glue. They generally come in pairs so you have a spare.
Better yet use your wife’s earring, after all it’s her rifle. Oh and let us know how that works out

Just had to pass this along, moved back to my childhood home a few years ago, the house has huge glass windows and sliding doors, my mother smoked here for 35+ years and there was a wood stove in the living room as well. I tried everything including all the old folk tricks, car glass cleaners and industrial products but nothing ever got the glass really clean. Today out of frustration I tried a Mr Clean magic eraser. HOLY S**T I used a new eraser, wet it, passed it back and forth across the glass one time going top to bottom (just enough pressure to keep the eraser flat on the glass) the thing was yellow by the time I hit the bottom of the window so I flipped it over and did it again with the back side, wiped the window with a paper towel and I was done, clean and NO STREAKS. YMMV but I’m going to try this on my truck windows as well because it was just to damn easy and I HATE doing windows. I dident see any scratching at all on the glass

I have read all the post above and had the same issues as everyone else, I have begun to treat them as non deliveries and refused payment thru the credit card company I use and so far they have backed me up, at some point USPS, FedEx, and UPS are going to start to feel the pinch of having to cover the cost of lost and damaged pkgs. I advise all of you to stop accepting this kind of bullsh*t behavior and file claims either with the carrier ( if you sent the pkg) or refuse payment thru your credit card company. This BS needs to stop

My bet is it was someone with a gun, oh and it was bought thru a straw purchase using the gun show loophole and was a home made ghost gun that was stolen but untraceable because it’s a ghost gun, probably also has a bump stock and 2ea 100 rd mags strapped back to back, and yes I do ghost writing for MSNBC ( just kidding on that last part )

I found when I did my gun the hole bored thru the frame that the cocking rods run thru was so rough the rods had to be pushed by hand to give the springs a little extra help, I made a lapping rod and polished them length wise to remove the drill cuts until the rods would slide out just by tipping the gun even without the springs, made a huge difference in smoothness

I prefer a 220 swift at 100 yards, you need to be back at least that far to avoid getting splatter on yourself

Almost all states now have a mutual agreement to collect taxes for each other ( not all but most ) almost every time I buy something on line now I get charged for VT state tax, 10 years ago you never got charged for tax for anything you bought on line but you know politicians, somebody has to pay for them to sit on their a** and make dumb laws so they all agreed to help each other take our money. It’s the ONLY thing they agree on

In today’s over anxious world with hair trigger overblown responses to everything toy guns that look real and speakers that look like claymores are probably not such a good marketing idea (even when they do sell) that Being said it’s a free country but you may get a bit more than you paid for

Is that an oversized toilet bowl or one of those wonderful drinks they serve in Chinese restaurants that come with 4 straws ?

Is this why everyone heads to Florida ? Naked women running around the streets and barging into stores has a certain appeal

Trioxane tablets also work great and never go bad but I am not sure if you can get them any longer, used them in the Army back in the 80s

I don’t know if it’s still this way but in the early 80s when I was in Benning the parachute pack company for the 82 airborne trainees were in the floor above me so I knew all of them, they told me everyone of them had to put their name in every shoot they packed and any trainee could refuse to jump a chute and the person who packed that chute then had to jump it that day, don’t know if that was a fact but that’s what they told all of us

You also got one of the best tasting ducks, wood ducks are known for the flavor as well as their feathers, over the years I have found duck breeds that feed more on grain crops tend to be better eating while fish eating ducks seem to be a much more gamie tasting

I keep a bore snake for the rifle, a chamber brush for my shotgun, a weaver screw driver kit and a squib rod at rifle length. I have never had to use the screw drivers or squib rod but a few others have borrowed them. I also have a bottle of hoppes and some cleaning patches

The trigger guard is not removable from the action -- it is part of the action.
Not on the two I have, once you remove the screw into the stock you turn the trigger guard to the left and it unscrews from the action frame

Remove the two screws from both side plates, remove the trigger guard screw and trigger guard, remove the buttplate and the nut that fastens the stock in place ( you will need and extension on your socket,it’s a ways down in the stock ) then gently slide the stock backwards off the action. You can then lift the side plates off the action if they dident drop off before, sometimes they stick to the action

This could be really fun in northern Vt, there’s a fair chance mud season will still be in full swing and us locals just love seeing $60k cars buried up to the tops of the tires in mud ( or deeper )
