It can't hurt.

You will kick it's ass next time, my friend.

Thanks, I certainly hope so!

Howdy fellas.

Morning Rusty. How are the bikes coming along?

Morning again. Dozed off again...

I won my battle last night, I guess I really dont need all the supplied hardware right? I figured out a way to make it work, it's not pretty but it'll run. Calling this one "done" for now.

1928 Schwinn running brand new 700c wheelset with 2 speed kick back rear hub. In all its rusty glory.

That's very cool, Rusty.

 

[RustyHornet]

This is how I got that one. Originally this bike would have come with 28" metal clad wooden wheels, however tires are really expensive for those so I opted to go this route instead. Makes it much more rideable.

How much are you into it for? If you don't mind me asking...

Let's just say I could buy a nice used CZ or a brand new one with the best price around.... I try not to think about that part, I only think about the part where I put an 88 year old bicycle back on the road. Makes it all worth it.

"SUCCESS".........................

Nothing like burnin the midnight oil! Wasn't going to bed until I got her figured out.

Morning all!

That turned out really well Rusty. The desire to keep an 88 year old bike on the road is kind of why I keep plugging away at that old '68 Spider in the garage. I don't want it to end its 48 year life in my hands if it still has life left in it.

Now, that's a tempting one to bid on BA. I've been missing my Compact since my son 'borrowed' it last year. And, I like shiny things.

Back away slowly. That's on my watch list too.

If I look at nothing else on GB I check that guy's listings at least once a day, often twice.

Anybody can go out and buy a new car or bicycle.

Hello everybody. My name is Chad, and I have a problem. I know fully well that getting my first CZ is likely to blow into a full addiction. I know that the $550 RAMI I'm looking at will likely cost around $1000 when CGW is done with it. I know the RAMI will lead to more and more CZs. What's even worse is I think I want to get into 1911s and they are more of the same. I know all of this, and I am going to go ahead and do it anyway. That probably makes me more CZick than people that unknowingly catch the CZickness.

I'm sure I can rely on all of you for support through this trying time as I realize my problem.

 

[RustyHornet]

Hi Chad, welcome. CZs and 1911s are what we do in here mostly.

 

[canterbc]

I look forward to getting into these new addictions. I've done the polymer striker fired guns and while there is really nothing wrong with them, they have started to become pretty boring. It's time to step my game up!

I am am moving back to Indiana next week after living in FL for the last five years, and I decided I'd get myself a homecoming gift. I've pretty much convinced myself that a RAMI will be that gift. I still need to decide on a safety or decocker. I know there is a recent thread about that very topic.

Welcome fellow addict

Pull up and chair and have some more

 

[RustyHornet]

Met DOGG and lil' DOGGette for lunch today. Good times, almost got my ass beat by the little one.

 

[wtburnette]

Great time at the range today, both times. Point Blank Greenwood has the Sig P226 Legion SAO in the rental case and I rented it today. Holy crap. I'm not normally a fan of the P226 but that thing is SICK! Gonna start saving my pennies up for one

Met redwingshooter and let him shoot my cajun babies and got to shoot his completely modified G34. Nice day!
