Gun room expansion (again)

Re: Gun room expansion (again)

Rest of the flooring came today along with the other items I was waiting for so between rod work I was able to get most of the remodel done finally. Which is good because I'm gettin too old for this s#@$ , maybe my back will finally start feeling better now that I'm done. https://i.imgur.com/DyJ4FFT...

Re: ** Build of the Month Contest - March 2023 ** - Winner - coxbros1

This month was a hard one to decide on for my vote. All of them are great. I almost went with the nitro Bruiser just because that is so wild and different. But I ended up going with Hemiclod, because that clod with all those vintage parts makes me think so much of a clod I use to have back in the 90...

Re: Gun room expansion (again)

Been wanting a revolver that was a bit bigger caliber than the only other revolver in my collection for a while now. Prices of 357-44's has just gone nuts lately, but came across this 38 for a price that was just too good to say no too. Picked it up yesterday from the FFL and already put 50rds throu...

Re: Gun room expansion (again)

Finished up the 16" 300blackout built over the weekend. Put the first rds through it yesterday and it fires very nicely. Can see myself taking this one to the range with me on a regular basis.

Re: So, what did you do RC today?



I finally got the big custom 1/5 scale out for the first time this season. Haven't taken it out since last fall.

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Yeah that is one thing about the big 1/5 truck, when it breaks stuff it doesn't do it half way, it lets you know it meant it :lol: :lol:

Also got one of the 1/10 trucks out yesterday for a little spin in the yard. First time getting this truck out in probably a year.

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

https://i.imgur.com/NZP8ahA.jpg Got a Monster Locker for the rear end of the 1/5 Monster truck. Tired of breaking gears in that truck so this should remedy that situation. Gonna lose a bit of turning radius but I think it's a trade off I'm willing to make to get the rearend bulletproof in that big ...

Re: Big Bear Resurrection

Awesome find. That was one of my favorite RC's back when I was a kid. I still remember taking the snowblower and clearing/making a "track" in the yard to run mine on back in the day. Had to be 30-35yrs or so ago but such fond memories of the Big Bear 8) Looks like the foams fixed the flat ...

Appreciate my time here

Re: Ultrasonic cleaner

I have this one here https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1064225214?pid=225214 I have not used it for RC parts but I use it for cleaning brass for reloading as well as cleaning gun parts such as pistol barrels, AR bolts, and other small gun parts. I could not be happier with it. If you've never had an...
