GPT today. I need this.

Jelly.

Surprised your PCR hasn't sold. Great price on a great gun. If I didn't already have a couple.

...He told me there was no regulator and the pipe is seamless from the meter to the house.

I noted that you had stated this in a previous post. Thus the purple (sarcasm) in my post.

The market sucks right now. If it doesn't sell soon I'm just gonna put it back in the safe. Who knows maybe it will grow on me.

I finally got in touch with a guy we have talked to before in the water company, and he appreciated my calling to say pressure had been restored. Living at the highest point of the system makes us the "canary in the coal mine" so to speak. Living on a high ridge has it good and bad.

Or maybe a trade opportunity will come along.

Hmmm always a possibility.

I've been dancing around the house, singing "I'm on operator, an operator" ...... nah, not really, but life is too short to be serious all the time. Have some fun, gangsters !

The ballistic panel arrived yesterday, and it fits perfectly into a slot in the Vertx backpack. It totally fills the slot, and is the side of the pack that fits directly against your back.

With the AR pistol in it's slot, and an extra 30-round magazine in a side pocket, the pack weighs about 11 lbs, by my calculations. There's still room for lots more stuff, but for a person with a bad back .... I'm not going to load too much more in it. It even includes a loop for your sling ..... for quick access.

I really like the concept, and for a frugal person, it was hard for me to spend over $300 (including the IIIa ballistic panel) just for the rig to carry the rife within.
But I'm pleased with it, and hope that the laws don't change in the future ..... so I can get some use out of it.
It's my G.O. (go out) bag, and my G.H.B. (get home bag) . My B.O.B.(bug out bag) is totally separate, and in the case of bug-out, I'd be grabbing two packs.
It's a big responsibility to be an operator !

Does this go in the pocket directly against the back rather than the pocket the AR pistol is in?

I realized that once the gun is removed for use you can put the pack on your chest and have the ballistic panel on the threat side if you are defending.

I think usmcdjb may have just saved me from buying a pistol I don't need.

Which one?

 

[88E30M50]

It's Tulammo (sp. ?). It's Russian, but non-corrosive, not reloadable (I don't reload), and reviews said that it was accurate in the shorter barrel of the M44 variant.

Nothing wrong with shooting Russian ammo in a Russian gun. If you get your hands of some bulk military stuff, be aware that some of the older stuff is corrosive. Any time I shoot the Mosins with surplus ammo, I assume it’s corrosive even though some isn’t.

Water pressure is back up, the water company found the problem.

Putting all the prep materials back into storage.

That’s happy news

 

[T-DOGG]

Which one?

The CZ 1911 that CM listed. Damn fine handgun.

Guess I should have gone and looked at the classifieds. Lol

Yeah, looks like I just slipped and accidentally bought it.

There are worse things to buy lol

 

[churchmouse]

You were just in front of him.

Probably should have asked more. 4 people after you 2 guys.

 

[Usmccookie]

Wow, yea that 1911 seems like a steal!

 

[churchmouse]

I got it from Patience. It will stay in the circle. Fitting and timing was everything.

 

[gmcttr]

I think the CZ1911 (thought to be made by DW) was only made for a year or two and had an MRSP of $850 but typically retailed around $750 back in 2015.

I looked for one a few years later and drove to Nashville, IN twice on the rumor that a shop there had one but it was closed both times.
