  1. Thanks for the pics Those look like the blades were casted into the hub. and it was one solid piece. , thats wild the edge on only one side is messed up. I dont know if those are leading edges or tailing edges as you can see in the one picture they make air flow certain ways. somewhere I saw a picture of how the airflows thru them. sure would be cool to find out what they were used in. I love that kinda stuff.
  2. Those look like impeller blades for sure I made a ton of them back in the day. For APU's Auxiliary power units what looks odd is the grey part unless it was part of the motor and got melted to the blades. The also look like a APU impeller blade as far as shape and size, however those were built in to the main hub they were not slip on like they are today.. we profiled ground and then drilled holes and counter bores in between each blade that was all one casting. got pics of the bottom part? I am curious as to what they are now. forsure the best find ever. Maybe a missile turbine of some sort? like a cruise or something similair? below are some pics of the new style blades and the old garrett/ honeywell way (cut out view)

    Unit 8 elk hunt

    Congrats , love that unit even more with snow. awsum pics. cant wait for otc deer to open as I think theres going to be some snow this year.
  5. My 1st centerfire rifle was a BLR ie Browning lever rifle in 308. I got it around 1972. never shot it at a coues deer but killed many elk, blacktails and muleys with it had open sights to. Put a scope on it and never shot it again go figure. I have half dozen 30-30s just cheap models and never fired them. then someone on here started talking about hunting with them (think it was yotes). Daughters boyfriend has one so took mine out a few times and shot them kinda fun. prettty accurate too. if I ever put in for a rifle coues deer i'd take it no problem. but I only do OTC coues . I kinda been getting a itching to start buying lever guns again cause they are a blast to shoot

    100% BS he was paid to say what he said. Hes probably running drugs too. so they let the truck undamaged filled it up with gas and washed it thats the funniest thing I heard. heck some guy got stuck on the beach in rocky point and his new truck was stripped in a few hours. Actually not the funniest, the funniest part was the stupid people who believe it.

    Swarovski Repair - Dissapointed

    not only the above but if they had a open end "I dont care whose policy" but there CAN be alot of people IE used Resellers people are nuts to buy High dollar USED optics at anything more than 1/2 price. like the buyer above he paid dang near close to new price for a pair of OLD USED DISCONTINUED (yes FACTORY DISCONUED) OPTICS. He's lucky as heck that he got ahold of the seller and might be still lucky getting them repaired if not it sucks to be him. people are greedy and cheap its just human nature, they wanna buy cheap and sell for cost.

    Unpacking

    I Still aint unpacked form my daughters elk hunt 2 years ago. heres how it works at my house. I come home go take a nap. then get up grab firearms binocs and toss them on floor. then eat dinnner. after that I back truck up to garage and drop everything off. the stuff that goes in the house I lay on the floor or couch. Stuff like jackets sleeping bags. coolers I lay on the counter to drain the water and grab ice cold cokes. then I hit the bed. wake up the next morning and wife goes where you going to put this stuff. Ummmm crap forgot to put the guns and binocs in safe. then I goto to work. she works with me, your going to pick the stuff up when you get home right. and you need to get those coolers off the counter cause there heavy. umm OK but tahts cause there still full of ice water and cokes, I thought your were going to get that out when I went to bed . go home late cause I work late I usually say hey if you unload the coolers they will be lighter for you to pick up off the counter and set them down in the garage, dont forget to wipe them dry. Thanks hun. she does get me back a few times. stacks everything right next to the safes or any walk space into the garage. so i just push them closer to main garage door and there ready for next time.

    Uh oh...

    Pot had nothing to do with colorado turning into a crap hole it was that way back in the early 2000's when the Ca people started moving there. thats what destroyed Colorado. just like Idaho Washington and oregon. The pot problem is just a by product of people and there attitudes who moved there.
  16. I thought they had one back in the early 80's, but it was washed out sometime later.

    Ethics or not?

    The guy posted this above. big f/n deal if this is true that would be illegal. Not illegal if all had tags Who f'n cares if your upset ya crybaby. the ONLY THING DONE WRONG if anyone can believe your story is they were shooting from the vehicle. I am doubt the entire story for the simple Fact your a nut job, your questioning ETHICS and then your feelings were HURT! grow up cupcake. you never mentioned the fact about something being Illegal

    Happy Thanks giving to all. kid sent me this earlier this afternoon. I thought it was cool. She just got to pensicola naval air station yesterday for marine aircraft training. my clown is on the left her friend from basic is on the right. They hadnt seen each other since bootcamp(45 days ago) and went to different MCT's Mine on west coast her friend on east coast. Imagine the surprise when one was walking out of her room and the other walking towards her room.

    Pistol?

    I bought the .243 when they were 1st avail and the .308 a little later., they were bright stainless back then and had a adjustable brake that actually works. I dont like mine with the brakes though way to loud
