    Revolver Trigger Job

    I'd like to get a trigger job done on my Ruger GP-100. I want it to be around 2 to 3 lbs. (y) As it stands, it breaks clean, but it has to be around 6 or 7 lbs. o_O I swear my caulking gun has a lighter pull. :sneaky: Can anyone recommend a local gunsmith that does work on revolvers? :unsure:

    Wooden Tractor

    When I was a kid, my Dad made one of these "wooden tractors", from a wooden spool. :cool: He used a single blade razor to cut the notches along the edge of the spool. Then he carved a piece of wax with a hole in the middle and a groove across it. Then he hammered a small nail on the opposite...

    Custody Hearing

    Judge: Madam, why do you think you should have custody of this child? Woman: Well, I brought it into this world, so I should have custody. Judge: That's a simple enough answer and I see your point. Judge: Sir, why do you think you should have custody of this child? Man: If I put money into a...

    SA Hellcat Pro - Trigger Bounceback?

    I have a Springfield Armory Hellcat Pro, in 9mm. When firing it, the trigger seems to have some "bounceback". It's the same sensation as a cracked baseball bat, that buzzes your hands, this trigger buzzes your index finger. o_O I realize this isn't intended to be a range gun for target practice...

    Jigging with an Ice Fishing Rod?

    I fish out of a kayak and I'm thinking a short ice fishing rod would be easy to handle in it and jigging would be best suited for that type of rod. I've got a couple of rod/reel setups and I hate seeing them just sitting around and not getting used. Has anyone tried jigging in open water with...

    Coyote vs. Turkey Hunting

    I've shot my share of turkeys over the years and each season I keep running into problems with coyotes busting the turkeys. :rolleyes: This year, I'm going to contact as many of my hunting buddies as I can and let them know I'll be hunting coyotes instead of turkeys. If they see any coyotes...

    3 Legged Chicken

    A man is driving down the road at about 45 m.p.h., when a chicken runs up along side his car. :unsure: So, he steps on the gas and gets up to 60 m.p.h. and the chicken catches up to the car and continues to run along side it. :oops: As the chicken runs ahead of the car, he notices what he...

    Muskie, Northern Pike Lake Recommendations

    I'd like to find a few lakes to hit with a kayak for muskie and northern pike. I realize I'm going to have to travel some distance, being in Lima (N.W. Ohio). Actually, if the Buckeye State doesn't have any good offerings, I may end up going north into Michigan or maybe even northwest into...

    Purchased Another Kayak

    I went to the BPS in Rossford to spend the $25 gift card that I got for x-mass. Then stumbled upon an Ascend FS10 kayak, that was the same price as a Perception 10.5 Sound kayak, that I'd been eyeballing at Dunham's Sports. They are both $499, but the Ascend has so many more features for...

    What's your best Chuck Norris joke?

    I heard that super heroes read Chuck Norris comics. Cats wish they had Chuck Norris like reflexes. The boogie man looks under his bed for Chuck Norris. Chuck Norris's reflection won't even look him in the eyes. When Chuck Norris gets in the water, the sharks get out of the ocean. When Chuck...

    Dental Anesthesia

    This is hilarious! :ROFLMAO: The oldest kid in the back understands her Mom's condition and realizes it's a joke. However, the two younger kids are devastated that their Mom doesn't recognize them and wants to drop them off at the playground. ;):sneaky: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/5Jqyn3PxaPo

    Kalamazoo Traditional Bow Expo

    I've been to this event several times, missed it a couple of times due to weather and currently going to be there this time. (y) It's a 2 hour and 50 minute drive, but well worth it. The people you get to meet, bows on display that you can shoot and a consignment table full of bows for sale too...

    Headaches

    An older man goes to the doctor for headaches that he's had for years, but won't go away. The doctor puts him through several tests and tries several different medications, but to no avail. The doctor tells the older man, as a final resort, if you have a castration performed it will relieve your...

    Weather Channel Advisory

    The Weather Channel, due to the extreme cold temperatures, has advised Walmart shoppers to wear 2 pairs of pajamas. :ROFLMAO:

    Compound Bow w/ No Sights

    After watching this video with Joel Turner, I've gotta try this method of shooting. :unsure: I'm already shooting traditional bows with a string walking method, so this should be easy to adopt. The flatter trajectory of a compound should make shooting inside 30 yards with the same "hold" for a...

    Sense of Smell

    A dog can smell if you have cancer or not. Good news....if they say you only have 1 year to live, it's really 7 years. (y):sneaky:

    State Roadside Rest Areas

    I've noticed a few of the State roadside rest area that have a 5+ acre woodlot attached to them. These woodlots are back away from the restrooms, picnic areas, etc. As I've been standing around these areas, it's not uncommon to see deer wandering through. They never get too close to people or...

    Hoyt Satori Riser Color Change

    I ordered the Buckskin color, for my Hoyt Satori 19" riser, but the seller sent a Black one. :rolleyes: I hunted with it for a year, but still wish I had the Buckskin colored model. I've camo painted things in the past, so I purchased some Rustoleum camo paint in a couple different colors. I...
