This configuration is what I used for my NRA Highpower campaign in the 1990s. Mine was the Armalite variety (which the last time I checked, they no longer produce) and I have great nostalgia for this platform. I suppose the MSRP is not a surprise considering today's economy and in 1994 I paid...
So if you do find a person selling what you need, how are you going to pay for it? Paper currency will be worthless. 9mm 115gr FMJ? Pretty valuable. Do you trade away your safety for a little sustenance? Will they come back later and use your ammo against you to reclaim what they sold you...
The biggest problem I have with that feeder in that location is ants climbing up the shepherds hook. I spray bug killer at the base and half way up the pole to keep them off and not affect the hummers.
I don't try to keep the bees away as they need all the help they can get.
Every time I order something on the interwebz, I hold by breath and pray it arrives intact. I can think of a hundred things I'd rather do instead of filing a damage claim for a package I received.
First sighting JUST NOW :woot:
We saw/heard one buzz past a couple weeks ago in Owen County. The feeder here in Indy has been out for a week but I think they've been stopping by, I just haven't seen them.
Small world. My father's family lived & farmed in west-central Putnam county for over 80 years. My mother's dad was the principal of Bainbridge High School in the early 1940s. My dad was a ballsy guy, dating the principal's daughter!
