I'm a thinkin we "Sponsor" a Road Trip for Andy to come south for a weekend, that way us Southerners don't have so darn far to drive, and we can get together at the Range or One of the Secret shootin spots and have a grand ol time! Of course we gotta do a BBQ after! I know there is some camping in the Battle Ground area, so we could do up a weekend in grand style! What say you fellers? @DB Wesner @11Charlie @Joe Link
@Stomper @v0lcom13sn0w @Caveman Jim!

That could work out well...I'd be sure to bring some choice pieces out for sure ...both the shooters and the ones just fer lookin' at...

I find the act of cleaning my weapons to be soothing and therapeutic....

I know, there's something wrong with me! LOL

It used to be even better back in the 60's and even 70's. (But not better for you) They changed the formula... think it had nitrobenzene .
The amyl acetate is what gives it that pear smell, some say banana..the nitrobenzene gave it and almond smell, made it a carcinogen and leukemia risk, among other shorter term health hazards..

Between that stuff, the lead dust and contaminants of handling spent brass, plus previous occupations - it's a wonder I'm still here!

Of course if you listen to modern safety warnings - it's absolutely amazing that any of us survived our childhoods too. And if you read any of the Socialist Republik of Calipornia's warning labels - everything I have ever touched, smelled, worked on or eaten in my life causes cancer.

That settles it.
WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!

I love that smell when I've cleaned weapons and the scent lingers for a day or two from the soiled patches in the trash.

Put a few drops in your aftershave! Gives off that Manly Glow, softens that boiled leather mug of yours, and prevents copper fowling!

Drives the Bride wild, Cant keep her hands off of me!

 

[wildcat455]

LMAO!!

My reloading room always smells like it. Probably because the first step to my rifle cartridge hand loading is wipe them down with a rag that has some sprayed on it. (I put my #9 in one of those HDPE squirt bottles)

Truthfully, I like the smell of fresh cut pine and stain better, it used to smell like that for a while after I built it. Thought about getting some fresh cut sawdust and some stain in a small flat tin and making some manly aroma stations...(I don't identify with the word potpourri..) LOL!!

...Yeah I guess so if you count Slapping you as "can't keep her hands off of me".

LMAO!!

Well, I tried to get a new gun to have for the range, but the STATE of Wa, says NO!
The Wa. seller cannot transfer it out of state, and My State has to honor their phucked up law!
