Probably a lot like me, just adjusted to right hand weapons out of necessity many years ago. I have never fired a left hand designed weapon.

If it is a hydostatic transmission it has safety switches on the fwd/rwd pedal. If this is slightly out of adjustment it can cause the same problem when trying to start.

TVA campground at Pickwick is nice, I personally don't care for the sites at the state park. A lot of people fish at the spillway area of the dam. Good catfish restaurants around but will require a little driving. Battlefield is close and very peaceful especially during the week.

Another vote for the Collectibles Insurance. They do increment the coverage by some percentage each year (premium also). This can be frozen upon request. I did freeze mine but need to reset coverage due to inflation and some unexplained growth in number of items. No claims to date fortunately.

If you use pump diesel ( or gasoline) for farm purposes you can recover the federal fuel taxes at tax time by filing a form. {IRS 4136}. Probably need to have farm or other off road expenses and income . I know farm income is one of the uses that qualifies.

I thought he did well, came off believable (to me). A jury may see differerntly of course. There is no doubt in my mind it was a valid case of self defense. An older wiser person likely would not have put himself in that position. He had as much right to be there as anyone else. I doubt that any adult would have presented himself better in either the confrontation or on the stand.

The surplus place in Trenton has all kinds of ammo cans for sale, J & W Army Surplus on Manufacturers Drive. Its not too far from you. I think the 50 cal boxes were $15.

Call them and get on their waiting list, it took several months to get my garand rebarreled. Once your turn comes around they send a rma number and instructions for shipment. It is fairly quick from this point. It turned out to be a lot cheaper than the gunsmith quoted. Covid caused then to be shut down for a while. I had previously left it at a local smith for what was supposed to be a two week job. It turned out to be an ordeal and I pulled it out untouched two months later when told it might be two or three months more. I was more than satisfied with CMP even with the wait.

What is the barrel length, looks to be less than 16"?

Welcome back.

If the property is not in a city limits (Bolivar, Middleton etc) you can shoot with no issues legally. Complaints from neighbors could happen depending on distance and personalities. You must do it safely of course. The county Sheriff would be the place to direct questions.

THP cad dispatch system is down statewide, not sure if it is routed thru this att site or not. FAA is having issues as well.

Was it oiled with WD-40 or similar ? My experience is that this will lock a revolver up due to the residue forming a varnish like substance. I speak from experience.

Great offer, too bad I am on the other end of the state and unable to meet. Someone else will be lucky. I think this is the first time I appeared to get there first

Congratulations!!
