just make sure its not a green semi auto carbine in Canada and your good to go...lol

No this years winter build project is my Zombie gun of choice a PPS43C I have a new Barrel being machined for it that is 16 1/4 inches and changes it to a 9mm. While it is built on the old carriage of a tank drivers machine gun it is a remarkable accurate fun to shoot gun once modified. To import the gun into the USA they had to turn it into a Semi Auto which is actually more fun to shoot than full auto I hope to have all of the components in a month or two and then I can assemble it and post a few pictures.

Home Depot has them for alarm systems in the area where they sell lighting and emergency lighting batteries.

Qualified: with that is in the USA.

Kayak + ducttape+ tornado= one heck of a good start on a Redneck Story to take home as a souvenir Dave.

this maybe relevant

 

 

 

IF I took this as accurate I could be shooting zombies by noon.

Thank you Thank you Thank you

Yup animals are amazing.

Looks sweet Dave.Will you have enough season to use both boats?

Only if summer falls on a weekend.

I saw some of the life of Marvin and you and Diane gave Marvin the best one in the world. Take the time to heal and when the little voice calls and you decide it is time to give another buddy a golden life I am sure Marvin will be looking down and smiling on you.

The Hull I D # need to be checked to see if it is stolen first. The registration # should yield the name and address of the owner of the boat so you can get a bill of sale.

Best of luck

Mike are saying you butt is bigger than a milk crate ? lol Good luck fishing Dave.

I hope that mutual ground can be found so both sides are happy however the little I have read seems to be that the NIMBYs would rather break than bend. The benefits I see for not only Canadas prosperity and both of our military troops improving the safety of our men is worth its weight in gold. I do know how this feels though being I live 45 minutes from Washington D.C. housing the CIA, FBI,ATF and 6 major military bases. We have test sites on top of test sites here.

Hate to say it but guilty as charged seems to be the legal answer but I hope that the CO has the integrity to accept the explanation and not issue the ticket. That said the CO is not responsible for making a judgment on an infraction it is up to the judge/magistrate to make the legal judgement on the infraction.

Good read Roy. I think that the not in my back yard is playing a lot in this knee jerk reaction. Placement of this facility has both a? military base near by? and the infrastructure to support an engineering/ mechanical industry. Is there an other place it could be built? sure but they have the logistics in place for this to be set up as the site, to change that is to go back to square one and spend a lot of time and effort to redo it. Some of the general comments at the meeting reported was the hatred of the military machine and that they deal with the USA as reasons to not have the facility built there but if not there it will still be in Canada so those are invalid arguments as for the not in my backyard stance. We all hate change that effects us but it will happen just as the first 100 people who bought their piece of paradise tried to make it so the next 100 would not effect there piece of paradise by voting no to further development. Progress is what made it possible for the first 100 to live there and progress is what will continue to make expansion of the infrastructure that is needed to grow a nation.

Plenty of room Berger!!!

I think you may even fit.

Just put him in the "trunk" he can make motorboat noises for you.

Art

sweet nice kayak Dave and when you get back home you got a smokin toboggan to boot. Enjoy the warm weather and the excellent saltwater fishing.

Art

no issues we hold a pretty tight rein on bashing here. Roy telling a shorty joke is as Brian says like a newfie telling a newfie joke. BTW Roy can tell those too.lol

Art

As a "little person",I find this thread extremely offensive

If you want to challenge Roy for the honor of being the residential Little person representative feel free to take a photo holding todays newspaper and a tape measure. But you better be really short to beat him.

We mean no harm or disrespect Roy has earned the right to tell shorty jokes his small size and big brain/ heart has earned him more respect that people twice his size (5ft)

Art

If he didn't have any money then he would be a little short.....

good to hear a happy resolution from Shakespeare good on you.

If he already has tilt trim then he has the advantage of being set back into clean water. The jack plate is not needed if the motor is set up correctly meaning the depth of the motor at full throttle is correct. If he is thinking to be able to trim it up to the edge of performance then he will be a slave to watching the cooling and cavatation of the motor. Backing plates and stiffeners can easily be added to aluminum boats if he decides to put one on. The gain will be minimum and the headache will start. I removed a jackplate from my 18ft aluminum jetdrive and put a tilt trim on with no loss of performance but gained in the ability to run shallows and clear the intake of the pump.

Art

Power tilt and trim would be a better option it sets the motor back into clean water and controls the angle of thrust as well as allowing raising the motor in the shallows. Jack plates once set for the load in the boat rarely needs to be moved.

Make sure it is marine vinyl if you use floor vinyl it will mildew and be very slick. I have carpet and vinyl in my boat the casting deck is carpet so it does not heat up in the sun and the driver area is vinyl for landing fish. The areas you plan on covering with vinyl does need to be prepped for installation. The carpet will cover up lots of bumps and blems that will show thru the vinyl. I also found that making a template out of craft paper cutting and taping as needed and then cutting the vinyl 1/2 inch larger easier to manage then trimming with a razor and scissors.

I tow a 89 Ranger loaded with tackle and gear for a week in Canada every year plus lots of 2 hour trips around my area. It is a 13 hour drive if we go straight thru. I am at 5500 to 6000 lbs and I tow with a 4x4 F150 Eco Boost with trailer package and 3.72 gear set. I do not even feel the boat behind me and that is what I am comfortable with. I have been cut off and made evasive actions with this load and controlled it safely without fear of causing further danger to others. Why would you accept anything less than that? I see more people up North towing boats with cars and light vans that couldn't stop if they had to than I do here in the States. The police here can and will pull you over and ticket or tow you if you are overloaded. Carpet installers and landscaping companies are huge offenders most of our tow vehicles are trucks that are rated for the job. I guess the cost of fuel is the big difference but to buy a vehicle that can't do the job you want to save a few bucks in fuel is to put a price tag on others safety.

No not toxic dogs eat chicken/bird poop all the time. If there are no eggs in the nest you can remove it any time you want without harming mother nature. They will build a new one else were in a day. You can also put a rubber snake in the area the nest was to keep a new one from being built.

Art

If we get any more personal bashing on there opinions I will lock this. State your facts and discuss this civilly please.

Don't send her to art school.

No you can send her to Art school I can draw slightly better than that. Lol
