Wrap them neat and pack em deep, check your lights and do the speed limit and not worry about it.

I've been watching alot of videos with people living in converted vans 24/7 and the most popular setup is a solar panel into a small bank of 3-4 batteries into a 12volt refrigerator and freezer. The panel is not very big, about half the size of the top of a full size van. The best battery seems to be used ones from cell towers. Small and sealed with a extremely long (10+ year) run life. These guys run off the grid with everything with that setup and most have a small generator for cloudy days but most end up never using it with the panel mounted even flat on the roof getting enough. What I've learned is three things. Get too big of a panel. Get good industrial batteries. Use 12v items because converters waste power.

I finally last year shot up some Remington 50 round boxes with no bar code and a 25 cent sticker on them. Date that!

I'll second this, I've always built my own gaming PC's but my last one died three years ago and my son told me to try his PS3 and after a bit of time getting used to it I looked at the cost and value and never bothered with another PC. Other than a handful of specialized games it's all on Consoles now and my old eyes sure like a 32" or a 72" screen a bit better. I've had a Xbox 360 which red ringed multiple times and now a PS3 and soon a PS4. The games hold their value better than PC games and not having to maintain a PC is nice.

I saw the elusive 22 at Walmart a hour ago. Walked into sporting goods and looked and there was seven bricks of federal sitting there in the case. I bought one and watched as three people looked and walked away. [emoji46] Should I be worried about a plague that blinds you going around?

Ive got a 11 year old girl that thinks she's 21 and a 21 year old boy that acts like he's 11 lol. The wife is in early menopause and the daughter is raging in her early hormones and they battle like two gladiators most mornings and I want to just hide under the bed.

Ive got a Savage 320 I keep nearby and if someone came in id know it quickly since i can roll over in the bed and there's a 20" LCD with my internal and external camera feeds on 24/7. Then my only thoughts are one door down the hall to grab the daughter then back up into our bedroom and hold the fort. My son can fend for himself with his AR on the other side of the hall if needed, creating a cross fire of death if they don't beat feet. I'm not clearing anywhere but the hallway and I can see it all from the bedroom display or from one of our phones.

I even made him fill out the 4473 on his own so he could experience it and there would be no question that it was his. I did have to print six copies out at home and make him do it in pen so there was no going back, the night before till he got it right. He had to read every question which is not his strong point and figure out the answer. Only issue he had was writing the wrong info down on the address or name fields. I did the same with my wifes carry pistol, handed her the debit card and said get at it. That way no one can't say it's not hers.

Oh I knew it was legal but it was for him using his own money and I decided to do father/son builds while we was looking. His Mine We finished them in January and was a good experience for the both of us. He bought and built 90% of the parts himself. Me and his mother surprised him with the magpul furniture. He's got a few learning disabilities but I wouldn't trade him for another and the efforts of studying on how to build it piece by piece was good for him.

I got accused of trying to have someone do a straw purchase for me last year. I was at a gunshop with my step son who had just turned 21 (kinda hard to say step since I've raised him since age 2) and was helping him pick out a lower for his first AR build and I was being real picky looking them over and the guy cued in and started getting nervous. I solved that when I said he wants that one and I want this one ring us up lol.

I signed up at the local post office on my 18th birthday. My best friend laughed at me and shrugged it off. Day 31 of him being 18 he got a reminder in the mail. Day 60 he got a nasty certified letter that I never got to read but he suddenly had motivation to go sign up.

I was on mobile and the auto correct went crazy lol. Fixed it. The shop is Frontier Firearms

There's a well known East Tennessee gun shop with a range. The safety video for the range has a spot talking about cease fire and clearing your weapons. Both people in the demonstration racked their slide then dropped the magazine. I pointed it out to the worker watching the range and got a blank look.

Are you trying to do it in one pull on the wrench? You have to pull till it just starts to get real tight then back off and do it again and again working your way around.

Of you have a stockable buffer tube you are asking for trouble, I'd use a good pistol tube. I always have parts around so I used a pistol tube just so I couldn't be told I had intent to build a illegal sbr.

Bought my home defense shotgun there last year and will never buy from there again. It was a total nightmare of uneducated about the process workers and waiting a hour for a manger to sell it.

What a day finally got in to one this morning. Was laying there and he was pulling and tugging like hell then I heard crack and he jumps up and leaves. Nurse comes in and says i have to goto oak Ridge for emergency oral surgery. By the time i got there the pain was down right hell. They knocked me out and fixed the butchers screw up. They was gentle as can be. Now it's lay here and suffer from his "work" flaring up my gums. He didn't even want to say anything to me which is dirty. The people at the surgery center pushed me right through quickly and allowed me to pay what I could.

Woke up with it not hurting except for a minor irritation thankfully. Well if I can keep from touching it with my tongue lol. I'm still going to have it checked Monday.

No luck anywhere, might as well grab some pliers. Friday must be a special day.

Ok update, I finally got a check in the mail to pay me back for roof work so I'm at $400 cash would should cover it but I've been to Sweetwater, Athens, loudon and lenoir city now and can't find anyone open yet.

They are trying to add Dental at work, all I can say is hurry the heck up.

I'm kinda short on cash for the moment but have a massive tooth ache absolutely killing me and no dental insurance. I've got $200 max right now cash but I can Barter with a firearm or ammo.

Ok one thing I get from this is a definite definition that a buffer tube on a AR is not a shoulder stock. So since my buffer tube extends out the rear of my SB15 unlike the newer model, it could be argued that you are shouldering the buffer tube as long as you don't secure the brace in a way that the buffer tube is not flush with the end or covered. You are leaving it on for later use just like you don't remove lights in the daytime.

I acquired a Corona brand heater as a shop heater but need it able to use in the house after tonight's mess. It has two issues one minor one maybe major. The igniter doesn't work but I can light it by other means but it would be nice to fix it. I'm getting some leakage into the bottom tray around the tank bottom (it has the drop in type) I checked the cap O ring and even flipped it but shouldn't there be a large O ring where the tank mates the wick tank?

Ice and trees killing power all over sweetwater, they can barely stay ahead of it listening into the scanner.
