The wife and I took our youngest son to a movie and then to the Longhorn Steak House in Henrietta today . The movie was quite good even though we all knew the outcome . Maya , the female CIA operative spent a decade tracking down OBL and her perseverance paid off . It will probably hit Red Box in a couple weeks .

What you need to understand is ..... people are buying the ammo up as soon as it hits the shelves and often paying a high marked up price for it . Also , guys that might normally buy a box of 50 22 cals will buy 2-3 bricks and hoard the ammo .

Money Talks ---- BS Walks ! So we can tell the state and local police agencies that they won't be supported by many manufacturers but not the Federal Government . Wait and see how many of these guns are put into the hands of NYS police agencies . Then again they are gonna be screwed because the guns are Remington made .......

Remington lands $80M deal Military orders over 5,000 rifles Associated Press ILION — Remington Arms has been awarded a nearly $80 million contract from the Pentagon to produce sniper rifles at the company’s Mohawk Valley plant, an upstate New York congressman said Friday. U.S. Rep. Richard Hanna, whose 22nd District includes the plant in Ilion in Herkimer County, said the contract calls for Remington to make more than 5,000 sniper rifles and millions of rounds over 10 years for the U.S. Special Operations Command. Hanna, a Republican, called Remington “the premier manufacturer” of sniper rifles for the American military. Under the contract, the company will produce the Remington Modular Sniper Rifle, or MSR, which has a range of up to 1,500 meters, or just under a mile. The contract announcement came two days after a group of state lawmakers met with Remington officials who told the legislators that the company plans to spend $20 million upgrading its gun manufacturing plant in Ilion. Local media outlets report that three senators and three Assembly members met with Remington officials on Wednesday to discuss what they could do to ensure the company keeps its plant in Ilion, where the company employs about 1,200 people. Concerns were raised about the company’s future in Ilion after the Legislature passed a law banning the sale of military-style rifles, including the Bushmaster product made at the plant. Since the law was passed in mid-January, other states have shown interest in having Remington relocate the plant. Remington officials haven’t commented on the upgrade plans. Remington has been a part of Ilion since 1816, when Eliphalet Remington crafted a flintlock rifle on his father’s forge. In addition to producing firearms and ammunition for the military and law enforcement, the Madison, N.C.-based company also makes weapons for hunting and shooting sports.

Good one Joe ! -
Another bit of advice , don't use this method to start the saw ..........
-
I have had a couple of cheap 16" Poulons that I used when I bought log loads to cut up for our wood stove . The original saw was stolen and I bought another to replace it . Both worked fine but the newer one doesn't oil the chain as well as the original did . I figured the Stihl would be an upgrade . I doubt that I will be cutting anything any bigger than a 12" diameter . Thanks for the input !

I have a Poulon chain saw that I bought about 20 years ago and it's okay but I thought I would upgrade . I just bought a Stihl 16" MS 180 C . It is has a 31.8 CC engine . Bought the saw , case , 6 pack of synthetic oil and extra chain . I plan to help my son cut and clear some trees on my SILs property in Geneseo and thought a new saw might be just the ticket . I checked reviews on various saw models and brands and this saw seemed to come out on top . I expect to put it to the test in the next couple of weeks . Does anyone own one of these saws ? I think the Stihl saw my son has is a 20" model . I'll leave the bigger stuff for him to cut .

Paula , proper grammar is as important as spelling . People use words like except for accept , etc .. It isn't so much a big deal on a hunting site but if you are sending out a formal letter to your Senator , Congressman , etc , you should be able to converse in an intelligent manner . I have certainly misspelled words on sites by trying to type fast and have been lucky enough to be able to make a correction after posting ( sometimes ). ps ---- I hope my spell check is working !
-
Belo --- for at least one time , I agree with you . If you are sending out a formal letter , you should have correct spelling and good grammar . I am also aware that there are educated people that cannot spell worth a damn !

The wife and I drove to Bloomington , Indiana last Thursday and drove home yesterday . We gassed up driving through and on the way back in Ohio and paid $3.549 a gallon . WE gassed up before leaving Bloomington paying $3699 a gallon . Made a wrong turn and drove through some back country roads trying to get to the X-way . In a couple of towns , we saw gas prices at $3.429 and a couple for $3.349 ( with membership ) . What's with our high gas prices ? Are we paying a lot of state tax on the gas or what ? Oh yeah , 70 mph allowed on Indiana x-ways . Saw a couple of bad truck and tractor trailer accidents on the Indiana x-way and traffic was held up for over 20 minutes in our eat bound lane . The best part was that we had a safe trip .

My newest detector is a Bounty Hunter Quick Draw II
-
I bought a cheap metal detector about 40 years ago and later bought a Whites metal detector from the Swap Sheet . It was fun to use but I never found anything of great value . The Whites kinda crapped out and I bought a newer detector with a discriminator two years ago but havn't used it much . Some kid ranger wannabe came riding in a pickup and stopped me from using it at a playground in Letchworth Park a long time ago . All he had to do was say I couldn't use it but he acted like a big deal . I went to the main office and reported the incident .
