I bought a Solo Stove Campfire model a couple of years ago. I carry it in our camper with a pail of scrap wood cut small from under the table saw and supplement with sticks and such as available. It replaced a home made small portable camp fire thingy that I used for years. Bought the Solo primarily because of the smokeless gasifier feature. As it warms up and the smoke goes away it is like magic. I carry small, roughly 1" square fireplace starters, I light it and toss it in and as it catches I dump in the scrap wood. Don't use it a lot but I do like it and highly recommend. A friend has their biggest one for camping and home use. We just use ours for a small camp fire when we are sitting around not cooking. The picture was when we first got it and wanted to try it out on the porch, Could have gotten by with a pie pan upside down for heat protection.

Ok fess up which one of you posed with your dog? An old hunter and his dog in Mason County, Kentucky, 1890

The mail must go through

Russian Soldiers with a Mosin Nagant & PTRD 14.5x114mm Antitank rifle Not sure if it is the camera angle or one long barrel.

Sniper Sgt Carlos Hathcock, Vietnam, 1968 Not sure if I posted this one, but I like it.

Must be one of those bass flutes

Looks like this one is begging for a caption. I don't think the ammo on the belt will work in what she has on her shoulder.

We had a periscope rifle post awhile back but I don't thing this one was posted.

I think captions got swapped on the photos here is the barn machine gun nest

Found another copy of the photo and it was labled German soldiers with a K98 Grenade Launcher, World War 1 That sounds a lot closer

This is the one I bought, I liked it so much I bought a second one to keep in the room where the safe is to see the difference between in and out of safe. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H1R0K68/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 it has humidity and temperature and stores lowest and highest setting so you can see what has been going on when your not looking.

I practice at about 10 yards, but if I don't shoot it for a few weeks I can only hit a 10" circle about 25%. If I shoot it every week I can get that up closer to 75%.

A Machine Gun Corps post in a barn near Haverskerque, 1 May 1918 is what the caption said but I don't see any machine guns.

I don't consider myself burned out but I went on a buying spree after moving to a free state three years ago and there is only a couple of guns left on my want list and I haven't found them yet. Got two on my list back in January. I did add one new one a month ago but it will be an impulse buy when I find it, if I have the cash. I do need to shoot more, no excuse, just been busy or too hot or both.

I use the DeSantis Super Fly on my LCP the shape looks like a wallet when it is in your pocket. The square part is Velcroed on if you want it smaller. I think I spent around $30 for mine so shop around. https://www.desantisholster.com/super-fly/

I have a 9mm and a .45acp revolver that take moon clips. I like them, I consider them as having light weight speed loaders. I found some soft rubber cap things that were used to protect/close the end of a tube that work as protective covers so I can carry a spare loaded moon clip in my pocket.

Chicago, wonder what year and what they were staking out.
