Well it’s not super secret if you’re in the Illuminati club, sorry ‘bout cha.

But which one? The one on 36? Maybe the one in Greenwood? Still seems secretive. LOL

What a great day this is. I ran down to HHRP to run some rounds through 'Bill', a DW CCO and my P10C. I've been working on my grip and think that I have improved it a bit. I was managing recoil much better than normally today.

'Bill' was a joy to shoot as it always is. It definitely packs a wallop on whatever it hits. That little .45 is no slouch either. Nice and soft on recoil and oh, so easy to shoot. The P10C was run only after everything else was out of ammo, so it felt like shooting a .22

Either you know or you don't know or think you know but don't know or you could think you don't know but know.

I know. That is all I know.

I thought it was under the airport?
I dunno, I’m always blindfolded when the aliens take me there.

Thank you for saying this I thought I was the only one.

But c’mon up boys, our waters just fine!

I think some of the 1911's in 45 move a bit more slowly than even the same gun in 9mm these days. Probably a little bit of sacrilege there, but reflects the ammo market, etc these days.

I hope not i'm getting ready to list one of my customs!

As usual Scheels tempted me, they had a nice SKB 90TSS O/U trap gun for 999.00 and a like new DW Valor in stainless for 1399.00 but I held off. I actually went there to look at a used CZ 75 they've had for awhile for 450.00 but of course the day I go to pick it up it's gone.

This seems about right. Had you not decided then it would have been there a few more months.

You gangsters are acting crazy today !
3 hours *total driving, and the winterizing is accomplished. Even if I was young, I bet my back and muscles would be sore. Ah well, the cabin is ready for winter.

For the new thread

Wow love them grips.

 

[MindfulMan]

Ben is fancy ..... those are spectacular grips !

When I take the back road to the cabin, the last 3 miles is one-lane gravel. It's fun, and scenic .... but you'd better hope that you don't have any oncoming traffic !

Those are my favorite kind of roads

Deer and other smaller critters often appear on the edge, or crossing the road.
It's nice, after facing the life-and-death antics of crazy drivers on the interstate !

I'm watching Red Dawn for the first time.....

I think we need more guns.

That sounds like a good rainy night thing to do. I wish I wasn't so sleep deprived now!

Parts of it are kind of silly, but I always liked that movie !

I see a lot of corn still in the field .... will this rain make it tough to bring it in ?

Historically speaking, according to the calendar you should still see a lot of corn out.

Soybeans are a lot more weather dependent to get harvested as the pods and grain readily soak up moisture, from a light dew to any rain, and have to be dry to be threshed. Most of the soybeans are already harvested, there will be windows to get what's left in, but if they're not in yet I would be worried about finding that window and making it happen.

Corn's limiting factor is really how muddy the field is and how bad you want to tear it up making tracks or ruts. rain doesn't really affect the grain. Snow on the corn leaves can plug and freeze in the separator of your combine so snow is a problem.

It feels like we are way ahead of the usual progress, the old goal is to maybe be done by thanksgiving but that has been moving up lately, we've been done 4-7 days before thanksgiving for the last few years. It would take a lot of bad weather to keep us from getting done by thanksgiving this year, and I think most are in the same position.

In this area, despite the dry weather the yields are good but the corn is very slow to dry down naturally, the dryers are working overtime and there are long lines at elevators and that will probably get worse.
