I finally got this in hand. Looks like all I have to do it put the spring, firing pin, and bushing in. Of course like I had already found out on the web, it takes some specific 2 pin tool that no one can find. I attached a rough drawing of what it looks like. It is threaded to fit into the hole. I played with it a little bit but could not get it to thread all the way in. I hope to have some more luck when I get a few minutes.

You should reply "When you add $600 to your offer" lol -

Most of my experience selling on CL has been getting an email or text saying "will you take (insert half the asking price or less) as the first contact. -

Woops. (TSA and Airport Police incident)
Ronald_55 replied to suspiciousmind's topic in General Chat
I remember seeing a movie where a guy stuck a sticker on a guy's luggage and the backing of it had metal in the outline of a grenade. So in the xray, it looked like one. Kind of always wanted to try that out...you know just to see....not on anyone that I do not like...really.. -

With a few guns I have seen people trying to trade, you would be on the losing end of the deal even at that. -

I have no idea if you would be getting the better end of the deal or not. lol -

Man East TN is not as fun as Nashville I guess. Of course if a scruffy guy in overalls offers me sexual favors with him or his livestock for a gun...I am going to run. I thought Craigslist did not allow firearms? -
Would love to hear what kind of crazy trade offers people have gotten over the years. I try to be reasonable when I offer a trade to someone, but it seems some people either think I am stupid about prices or that their beat up single shot 12ga is some rare artifact. If I can go buy it for $110, I am not going to trade you a $400 item for it.

Good find. May we all be so lucky.

Do I dare ask where you lucked up on that?

Knoxville Ice Bears game now comes with a Wanding and pocket search
Ronald_55 replied to Ronald_55's topic in General Chat
I guess it is the trickle down affect as smaller and smaller venues and events ramp up security. -
Glad to meet you from the East end of the state. It is true, guns are like bunnies. You get one and then there are 3 in the box... Or maybe I am just an addict.... lol

The mail lady at work cusses me I think. I have all the eBay stuff I order for me or work delivered to our physical address so that no one has to wait at the PO to get them. One day i think half her car was parts coming in for a project I was doing.

The Whoops TSA thread reminded me that I wanted to post this. Went to a Knoxville Ice Bears Hockey game a few weeks ago. We go a few times every season. I was surprised to see a security line on the outside where you had to empty your pockets and get wanded. This is new this year. I never thought about carrying in my pocket knife in the past. I made a U turn to the car and then went on in. Has there been an issue there that I don't know about since i am not in Knoxville?

Never done this on a plane, but ended up at a Federal building once with my EDC knife back in 2003. Security was nice, but seemed a little irritated. I got my knife back on the way out. -
Did I miss what caliber that one you just got is?

Transporting Inherited Long Guns from Colorado to Tennessee
Ronald_55 replied to khrystid's topic in General Chat
We would be more than happy to see what your Uncle left you. Family guns are always the best and often times you find that there are guns you have never seen before in the group. Safe travels. -
My guess is gun owners club

Three British stooges, a bike, and an electric fence.
Ronald_55 replied to Sam1's topic in General Chat
I had a cousin get distracted by a friend while taking a leak and turned his stream directly onto the electric fence. Boy did he yelp. Lol -
I soooooo wish my Dad still worked as a machinist. We could have built windmills from scratch. In his younger machine shop days wayyyy long ago he refurbed a .50 cal windmill piece. Too bad is still is not part of the parts collection.

Maybe he can be an example for all the people sitting on their butts whining they need a government check because they cannot find any work. Ryan Hickman's recycling business has recycled over 200,000 cans and bottles and banked him approximately $10,000. And did we mention Hickman is just 7 years old? http://mentalfloss.com/article/90784/meet-7-year-old-boy-who-runs-his-own-recycling-business?utm_campaign=newsletter&utm_source=mf&utm_medium=01_13_17-article_1-90784 That kid is going to go far.
