  1. I second that. my lcr is my primary carry gun in a pocket holster .. oops ccd the wrong post .,
  2. Nice wooly, I like it. I have to agree with grampy about Dewalt.
  3. Yes I have looked many a times at a mini 14 on the ruger web sight.
  4. I am not recoil sensitive, and those I have talked to that own one say they do not recoil anymore than a full size SRH. Usually I am the kind of guy that won’t buy something unless I have a need for it. But I just want one..
  5. My list... #1 - is a ruger Alaskan, I have been wanting a Alaskan for awhile as soon as we’re done remodeling the house.. #2 - SR1911 in 10mm. Have been wanting a 10 mm and a 1911 for awhile so both in one.. #3- super redhawk in 480. Thought about buying the Alaskan in 480 but I would really want to hunt with this round so yeah .. so what’s on your wish list...
  6. Polaris - my self I have read and seen to many problems with them for me to have any confidence in them.but they do ride like a Cadillac.. kawasaki - a 750 brute force v- twin is a awesome machine with all the power you want, Kawasaki fixed all the problems they had with seals etc. with the newer machines . but having said that the belt drive system on them can be a pain to maintain. Honda - they had problems with their electric shift transmissions , but I believe they have went with a duel clutch auto transmission ( no belt) in their new machines. Honda’s are dead nuts reliable , but that’s because they don’t make a tons of power, thats the biggest complaint I hear. Suzuki - king quad is a great machine and dosent get a lot of talk , very underated. They have a very , very good belt drive system ( same design as Yamaha ) the biggest thing with the king quad is it’s dated, but there’s been a bunch of talk about the new redesigned 2018 king quad being awesome .. Can -am - they had problems with their belt drives and I had read some on frames cracking, but that has all been fixed and I really don’t see or hear much going wrong with the newer one’s. When the wife and I go riding we see a ton of can-am’s on the trails and the guy’s are beating the snot out of them.. yamaha - my pick . I know your a big guy and so am I (6-3 290) i have a 01 400 kodiak with some clutch work in the cvt belt drive and stock engine ,this little machine amazes me with what it does. Ok to the grizzly, Yamaha’s belt drive is the best in the industry and is very very easy to modifie to increase your low end torque. The Yamaha’s are right up there with Honda’s for reliability. Very sporty and fun to ride but can also work. I do know some guys were experiencing gas boiling on 2017/18’s and Yamaha had a fix. ok just a few things to think about. weight - The heavier the quad the harder it will be to manhandle it. V- twin ( brute force / can-am ) vs single cylinder ( grizzly/ king quad) . V twin tons of power , but you have 2 plugs to change, 2 throttle body’s to malfunction, 2 timing chains to stretch etc. basically you have double the things that could go wrong. Not that any of the v twins are prone to problems but nothing is 100% , not as good of gas mileage. Single cylinder better gas mileage, lots of power ( but still no v twin) easier maintenance, lighter over all quad.. google is your friend , find some quads you like and google common problems for that quad. In the spring I am going to be looking for a couple big bores for my wife and I, and I am looking at Yamaha, Suzuki and can am. Almost forgot, no matter what you buy get power steering. Every guy that has gone to power steering quad will never go back..
  7. Mmmmm.. Cheerios ....
  8. Well that’s some interesting history..
  9. Nice , that’s half the fun of toys is making them your own..
  10. Ha wooly bears , I like it. Nice job as usual..
  11. That’s a lot of lips and butt holes..
  12. Happy birthday, on the 4th no less.. part party party ....
  13. Youngest son is friends with a kid that works for the Steuben county sheriff, he said the principal was going through a divorce . The trooper was shot trying to enter and talk the man down and a sheriff was pulling the trooper out and the guy was getting ready to shoot the sheriff. Sheriff fired first and hit the guy, guy gets in his car and drives to his house up by college and barricaded himself in. Guess he was well armed and the police did not want to enter for fear he was not alone. Then the man shoots himself.. It’s a real shame no doubt, only thing I can think is maybe because the police knew he was a principal that he wouldn’t be that violent.. Its difficult for me to rationalize how humans can become so evil so quickly..
  14. Stoped in today to our local store to pick up some welding wire, and they redid their parking lot and now have parking spots up front for veterans / military. Was very happy to see this and wish more stores would do that. And they are rearranging the entire store and increasing their (whitetail section) by like over 750 more products..
