The problem is that there's a small spot right outside my bathroom door where the carpet just stays wet all the time. Not real big, so the pipe is only seeping. I plan to call several companies and get estimates. I'm also aware that this one of those things that you really can't estimate until you get into it. If the cost is too high, I may just turn it over to my insurance and let them figure it out.

Yep, I'm afraid so.

I built mine. 4X4 legs and 2X8s on the top. Its served me well for over 30 years now.

Best Gun Show to attend in the NE TN area
Grayfox54 replied to F250nguns's topic in Events and Gatherings
I believe that will be a RK Show. They pretty much have Tennessee covered. I can't speak for that area, but here in the west end they're generally pretty decent. Especially if your interested in ARs and plastic pistols. They have lots of that stuff. RK does the Jackson show and I always attend that one. I will be going next month. Great American also does some TN shows, but I've never been impressed by them. It seems that gun shows are getting fewer and farther between. What with more restrictions, money being tight, the price of gas and Covid, there just aren't as many shows as there used to be. Its always a crap shoot. Quality depends entirely on which vendors decide to show up. Most times all I buy is a Dr. Pepper. But I still go to all that I can. Sometimes even a blind squirrel finds an acorn. -
Thanks.

That's a Colt M1895 machine gun. Commonly called the "Potato Digger". Its was the first gas operated machine gun and designed by non-other than JMB.

I'm in need of a really good plumber. Honest, dependable and reasonably priced. I think I have a leak in my slab. Any recommendations?

First of all, I'm not nearly organized enough to pull something like this off. Wouldn't even know where to start. However, if somebody here is willing to take the lead, I'd love to have a Memphis /West TN get together and meet all the folks I've been posting with for so long. How 'bout it? Anybody up for the challenge?

You need an entire trailer for one bottle of pills?

I go with the 6 shot .38. All 5 shooters are J-frame (small) sized guns. I have absolutely no desire to fire a .357 out of one of those. But you can always load the .357 with .38+p ammo.

Simply a matter of a good belt and holster.

Lake City ammo too dangerous for civilians
Grayfox54 replied to 1fast4by's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
Its backdoor gun control. I just shot off e-mails to my Congress Critters informing them of the situation. I'll bet they have no idea this is happening behind their backs. I suggest you do too. Raise a fuss and make it known! -
Lake City ammo too dangerous for civilians
Grayfox54 replied to 1fast4by's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
According to the article Lake City provides 30% of the 5.56 ammo on the market. The plant is run by Winchester and that would be a huge loss of revenue for them. I'm thinking Winchester could easily pressure Joe by withholding military production until he reverses this order. -
SKSs have kinda turned into a collector niche all its own. At least a half dozen or more arsenals produced them for at least as many countries. What its worth now depends greatly on exactly what it is, who made it, when and its condition. Any modifications usually subtract from the value. Generally speaking, an un-molested, military rifle is currently selling for around $500.

This is the kind of weather you wear.

Yep, shaping up like a typical summer around here. Not quite 8:00am and I'm fixing to cut my grass before the heat really kicks in. Current temp is 82 with 76% humidity. I spent most of my working career having to deal with all kinds of weather. Its good to be retired.
