    ? on toy hauler fridge

    You may have to "burp" the fridge? At least that's what I would try next. If you google it, you will find info https://www.trails.com/how_12308_burp-dometic-trailer-refrigerator.html

    need wood finish opinions

    I finished my AK Yugo wood stock with just tung oil. I applied about 6 coats with light steel wool buffing in between coats. Turned out great
  3. I have a P01 that I bought from buds in 2014. Good price... Dropped it off a CZ custom and put in a 15# mainspring, extended firing pin, heavier firing pin spring, competition hammer, half checkered cocobolo grips and a trigger job. Turned out great. It's basically a SDP without the sights and 85 combat trigger

    Water in the backcountry

    I have a regular Sawyer squeeze and a Sawyer mini. Works as advertised. Backpackers love them. You can get a mini for like $14 on Amazon. Best filter on the market.... The flow is fine. If the water is REALLY dirty or muddy you can pre filter through a t shirt or towel. Buy one

    Prices just go up

    As you know it's not just tag prices it's everything. You can thank George Bush and Obama. Stimulus packages, bailouts and quantitative easing. Inflation is out of control.

    Recommendations for buying online

    I've bought from PSA, J&G, kygunco, buds, PFI, keeley arms, and others. I buy from whoever has the best Price for the firearm I want to buy. Never had an online purchase issue

    The long season?

    Yeah I guess you are right. He should just collect food stamps like everyone else and ride his tractor to the grocery store to buy groceries, sucking off the government's tit like everyone else instead of minding his own business and living self sustained.

    The long season?

    I'm from Minnesota too. An old hermit named Hank owned about 300 acres of woodlands down the road from our cabin. He lived in a home he built, and lived off the land. Had a wood fired stove in his house. Just to make coffee in morning he had to build a fire in the stove. He killed a deer every now and then to eat, to live. That's how he did it his whole life and I see nothing wrong with it. Deer there are over populated anyway. Most seasons you can't even kill a buck until you fulfill an obligation to kill a doe. Some people just live different lives. I believe landowners should have more rights to harvest on their land (state by state basis)

    What is next for the Prez?

    👍🏻 Don't get me wrong, there are some CLUELESS people running around with a badge. But there are a lot who believe in civil liberties and actually understand the oath they took. Like in any profession there is a wide array of personalities and intelligence. Just know that there are oath keepers amongst us! Just remember, the vast majority of LEOs are former military.

    New American Currency

    No difference between that and a real dollar. Both are a Monopoly money, fiat currency backed by nothing. Thanks Nixon

    What is next for the Prez?

    I am one of those local LEOs and I can assure that a lot of cops feel the same way about this country and the constitution as you and I. You just never hear about them.

    spot satellite

    I haven't used the spot. When I was shopping for a device to bring out in the field I did my research and wasn't impressed with spot. The reliability is questionable and there is a subscription cost to it. I ended up buying an ACR PLB (personal locating beacon) ResQLink. It is more expensive ($250) but there is no subscription and it uses the military homing beacons and military GPS for emergency rescue in the field. I had to register my device with the NOAA with emergency contact numbers, ect. This is the same device professionals use at sea, but it's the land version. Outdoor gear lab gave it the editors choice award for personal locating beacon. If you use it and are rescued, ACR will give you a new one free. Only downside? You can't send messages like the spot. If you are only worried about rescue in a life or death situation get the ResQLink http://m.rei.com/learn/expert-advice/personal-locator-beacons.html http://www.amazon.com/ACR-PLB-375-Personal-Locating-Beacon/dp/B005E1OU1A http://youtu.be/9C7UiFe_hRk

    2016 F150 Trailer Feature

    Case in point - my wife lost her dodge caravan key. I went to True Value to get a key made. They said it would be $250!!!?!! They said my wife's key is chipped so only that key can start the van. What a joke. Who is going to steal a 2006 caravan? Can't I just get a normal $2 key? Why does it need to be so complicated? And both rear window motors in my truck went out. $100 each to fix. Give me a crank and I'd be happy... I'm not that lazy

    Couldnt agree more with lark. Now I know why new trucks cost $50k - unnecessary gadgets that eventually break and need repair. I wish a auto company would make a pick up with a motor, carb, am/fm radio, no power windows, no power locks... No frills and sell it for $12,000 new. Something that you don't need an electrical engineering degree to fix. Something where there is room under the hood and not crap jammed in every inch of free space to the point you can't even stick your hand anywhere near the engine. I'm guessing this isn't a reality due to government regulations
