Those are sexy and a great price too. My set got snapped up by the neighbor’s boss when was working out prices. GLWS!

We could probably all start naming names on that! The proper way is to put the timer behind you so that A) it doesn't pick up the noise and B) so the score keeper can try to read the number upside down.

Yeah but you can slowly lower the slide if you want to. But us of the fancy shirts followers of the flip and catch can't afford that much time loss....... LOL To add to the topic most extractors are spring loaded these days. I can't think of a non 1911/2011 style handgun that doesn't have a spring loaded extractor. There was a couple of Sig 1911 styles that had one and didn't work worth a ####.

I pride myself in never getting sick but here I am coughing my head off. Nose is just running water and I go between the chills and sweating like I'm hauling hay. At least it's not in my chest or anything. Who else has got this crap in the new year.

If you have a super tuned extractor it makes sense, but for 99% of us it's not an issue on a Glock or something like that.

I'd say less than 1,000. I don't really keep track but I know I don't shoot my 45s like my 9mms and 40s because they are competition guns.

Well the plumber called and got into "worse trouble" on a job. We all know how that is! He said he couldn't come today but is coming tomorrow. I decided to give it one last try and while I was letting the primer dry on the ends I cut decided to just omit the shower. I guess whatever stress the shower supply line was causing is what caused the failures. It's on and working now just can't take a shower. Good thing I got those 3 dozen wash clothes from Amazon that time! Still gonna let him redo it all in plex. The water into the house is metal pipe through the wall it looked like. I'd have to move the workbench and everything to get to it but I could pull it out from the wall and see a little. Gonna leave that as is and just let him tie in after it passes under the main floor beam. That way everything is on the same side and he can make a day of it in the warm basement instead of outside or under a house.

That's what I'm thinking is the problem just old pipe and doesn't want to hold with the cement. Gonna re-do pretty much everything in pex and if I have issues with the incoming water lines do that is pex as it goes. Don't want to move my reloading benches unless I have to.

I'm squatting to pee for sure. Mom kept saying "we could call a plumber" after the 2nd blow off. I said most don't wanna mess with PVC anymore and they wouldn't do anything or know anything I don't know or have done. At this point I'm just going with the pipes are old and not wanting to seal good with the cement. At least I can watch him and figure out what tools and stuff I'll need to keep on hand to fix any little issue that arises. Now go buy the stuff I got on the classifieds so I can pay the plumber and still get my trapper when they come in stock!! LOL

I stand/sit before you a broken man. There was a tee connector that had a tiny hairline crack. Had been leaking for a while but just a drop here and there and I thought it was the shower drain. Well 3 times I fixed it and 3 times either the left or right coupler popped off under pressure. 2 trips to Co-Op, 1 trip to Lowe's, and 1 trip to Home Depot and still not fixed. I told Mom I'm throwing in the towel and calling the plumber. Everything is at least 20 years old combo of PVC and CPVC. Not going to do the WHOLE house but 95% of it in pex. We have 3 different water sources and I'm not messing with that because it's over my reloading table. He's gonna be here tomorrow afternoon to figure out what he needs. I know I could do it myself with a few youtube videos and getting the right "tool" but I don't really want to fool with it after the day and a half I've had. I'll just squat to pee from now on.

I'm not interested in any trades outside of a Marlin Trapper in 45-70 since that's about all Im interesting in getting. All I have is the gun and mags. I bought the gray/blued mag from Farnsworth in Vonore When I bought the gun at Guncraft in Knoxville (the gunshop/range off Lovell road not sure what the name is now) it it had the wood grips on it and came in a wood box but there was no markings on it. I bought it used from a gun shop in 2000. I had forgotten who someone said the importer was but RTB sounds right. They said it was an importer in Florida.

Between Knoxville and Chattanooga. Not interested in trades on this one.

Yup

It's not been shot much. I'm just guessing but less than 500 rounds if that many. I got it when the 40 craze happened because I had a PT-99-AF in 9mm (still do).

This one carries good and shoots like a laser beam! It's just a touch too big for my hands and Im thinning out what I don't actually shoot. Shoot it mostly for IDPA classifiers because I could shoot 1 time and get SSP/ESP/CDP all in one whack.
