Via amazon, one brass barb fitting to connect a hose from the underside of the air cleaner to the crankcase breather (a 1/2" to 3/8" reduction), and a second brass barb fitting to connect the fuel inlet on the Holley 2300 to the outlet side of the fuel pump (a 3/8" to 5/16" reduction). Nuts to me that I had to order this krepp from amazon and pay $6 to have it shipped to me; was beyond unable to find such simple things locally at O'Reilly, AutoZone or even the ranch & home store in town. Now that I have complete hose routings for the fuel and the crankcase breather, I need only to position and fix-in-place the throttle cable bracket. Once that is done, I'll have throttle from the driver's seat and can get the shootin' truck registered and insured. Then we can drive it out to the desert and let the lead fly.

As of March 6 at 1953 PST, ordered a left-hand bolt with right-hand ejection Bighorn Arms TL3 stainless action, the 12-point stainless barrel nut for same and chose their 20 MOA Picatinny scope base. Action was $1250; nut was $40. Lead time is eight to ten weeks, so we may see it between early and later May. Hope to hellsinki it doesn't turn into the nightmare that was the 18-19 months I waited for my lefty long-action Montana Rifle Company action way back in April 2003 to November 2004. Finally received that rifle in late October 2005. Now we have to start looking at barrels. The stock will be a MagPul Pro 700 ambidextrous chassis to fit the lefty bolt and the righty ejection. Scope is going to be a Vortex-- or we may even go so nuts as to put a Nightforce on it...

Finally got my 110 Tactical finished. So far shooting 5/8" groups. Need a few more rounds down-range before getting serious.

Think "state of the art" blaster.

Added another King Cobra to the heard. Bought used, Hardly a mark on it, like brand new.

Rotary barrel, like the ultra-high-tech, 21st century Beretta PX4??

Picked up a S&W model 360 today. Immediately disassembled and started shimming the hammer, changed the hammer spring to an 8 pound pull and 13 pound pull on the trigger. Mucho better!

Within the last coupe of weeks I satisfied my "revolver fetish".

First someone traded this little beauty. S&W Model 36-7 , blued frame. Bluing is in fantastic condition. Probably sat in a night stand. I did the usual shim and spring upgrades then added different grips.

Second is a new S&W model 610. 10mm/40SW. Had a set of Rosewood grips in a box and upgraded trigger and hammer springs. Very nice piece.

Third is just a fun "salt gun". Load with table salt and kill flies and crawley bugs while sipping on a cold one. I have more fun with this. Get. The 3.0 version as they are more powerful. Notice the dead flies? LMFAO!

The folding pistol brace on the AK is mine. I just had a friend add the Picatinny rail on the back of an AMD I got from a guy who didn't need it anymore. A friend built me the pistol from the parts on a frame from Winslow AZ as a pistol with some SAW (M-249) parts, a Unimak gas tube, and a Vortex 2 MOA red dot. Bottom photo AMD getting shot in Afghanistan.

The Glock is my wife's, her new Glock 44 in .22 LR (she teaches "Girl and a Gun classes").

I ordered set of Mono Grips from Hogue with a 30 day lead time. 72 days later I received them. Good Lord!

Well, they look killer on my Talo GP100 full lug 44 special. Hammer spring changed, shimmed the hammer. Worth the wait!

I fooled with hundreds and hundreds of .223 brass, separating the Lake City from everything else. Hammered-out several hundred crimped-in primers in the course of the action. Found a bunch of Norma brass in the bunch, and something called Perfecta. Found some Frontier, too. I have no idea who makes Perfecta nor Frontier. I just saved them for load-development at some point in the future. Instead of listing R-P, PMC or LC as the brass used in the development, I'll show Perfecta or Frontier and maybe have people ask me where in helsinki I got such brass...

 

[old4570guy]

Perfecta is Fiocchi, Frontier is Hornady.

 

[nvshooter]

Perfecta is Fiocchi; Frontier is Hornady.

Nice! Both are fine sources for ammo, which would indicate in my mind that both are fine sources for brass.

 

[old4570guy]

A friend uses nothing but Perfecta brass.
