Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I'm pooping, since you asked

LOOK AT IT, LOOK HOW CUTE

Looks like they copied a gremlin.

 

[tv1217]

I would argue that Gremlins copied Yoda since it came out 4 years after The Empire Strikes Back.

Monday morning and back to the salt mines. Road trip to Indy this morning for me. Delivery for work will kill most of the day. Next week is a three day work week.

That's a nice pair, BS. (I know. It sounds weird). What caliber is the pistol?

I have a Garand I've never shot. Would like to, someday, in the company of someone who has experience with them.

That's darn good shootin with irons at 100!

Got my WWII 1942 S&W Lend/Lease all cleaned up.



Then my buddy (who found a good deal on a WWII 1942 M1 Garand and picked it up for me) sent me a couple photos today.





He had to "safety check" it for me at 100 yds at his range.


I'm fine with it, and at least I know it's a shooter. The stock in pictures seems sanded down and it has an IHC op rod, but it is correct. I pick it up next weekend when I visit.

.38 S&W. It was a contract with Britain.

He has 4 or 5 Garands in his collection, so when he texted me about the 1942 SA I was pretty confident in his opinion. Mine had a later bolt (very common which tells me it went through a rebuild), but he swapped it out with a correct on he had on hand. I'm debating on swapping out the IHC op rod for a correct one. He has 2 spares that are correct, but both have the cut. I'm leaning toward not swapping it out unless I can find a correct SA uncut op rod.

Here are the only markings on the stock. Anyone have any insight on the meaning?

Good place near-ish Crown Point for watch repair? Was going to take to Brad's. Any pro's/con's?

But Yoda didn't look like a Gremlin, till now.

As a former company armorer, I would say it is a rack number. Probably A company and the number for easy ID.

I guess that sort of makes sense but I thought 20s-30s really only happens as a freak occurrence down there.

 

[Ballstater98]

This will either be well received or craziness considering this was decided at 5pm today and few folks know of this. If you're going to the game you are probably jumping for joy (and let's face it, it's football + Hobart). The Friday release will be the issue for working folks not going to the game. We'll see...you'd think their would have been an all call.

If you have kids in the Hobart school system there has been a change to school hours this coming week. No late start on Wednesday and school will get out later than normal and there will be a early dismissal on Friday. All because of the football game Friday night.

Nothing like getting a long-winded all call that has technical difficulties that cuts it off before a point was made. It's dinner time and you couple that. Lol

 

[Ballstater98]

The funk that has overtaken this house is slowly leaving. I'm guessing by Friday my sinus funk will be totally gone. 3 weeks is exhausting. It was crazy, it just wouldn't go away. My wife is on week 2. Hope no one else gets it.

I believe property values will be heading north as well with an additional South Shore track.

Doesn't work.

 

[repeter1977]

Well, back to a normal schedule for a few days. Other guy I work with has to burn off a bunch of use or lose leave so I'm working a ton of jobs in the same amount of time. Totally not stressful at all.
