Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[svk]

I've owned 4 77's over the years. Never had an issue with accuracy.

Most accurate rifle I've ever owned was a Remington 700 Sendero in 300 win mag. Shot a touching three shot group once which for me is excellent.

Well fellas I'm heading south today. Going to spend the winter in Florida. Have already arranged a spot to cut with a local tree service. I think I have 7 runners and a bunch of project saws in the car along with me and the cat.

Have a good time! Holler if you need me to post the -30 temp pics and the icy roads and the piles of snow.

MMike: I think you made the right ID on that old Oak tree. I looks like a Chestnut Oak to me as well.
If it is... it will split very well. You should be able to, make good time, and get a good workout swinging the light weight splitting tools.
Good Stuff.

Scrounged myself up a Glock 36 and sold my Dolmar 32 and a shotgun to finance the deal. The little 32 went to my former neighbor so it will definitely have an easy life looking over his half acre lot.

Putting a couple more saws up next week to finance my 346 build.

A 36?! Too much caliber in a plastic gun for me.

Over 50 years ago I borrowed a friends 35 rem. Had a nice buck in the sites and the rigle misfired. Don't have fond memories of that rifle.

I had a large frame Glock in 45 many years ago and loved it. Like the compactness of this one.

Saw these in a joke thread on FB:

"Sheriff, why do you carry a 45?"
"Well son, I carry a 45 cause they don't make a 46!"

"Sheriff, I noticed you are carrying your pistol tonight. Are you expecting trouble?"
"No ma'am. If I was expecting trouble, I would have brought my rifle!"

If I was to carry a 45 it would be a full frame 1911

Saw this today on my lunch break. Decided to talk to the tree guys and ended up getting five loads of oak. Had the danger ranger today so they were small loads. I had been using my buddy's trailer, but he needed it. He actually asked if he could "borrow" his own trailer.

Two loads were 6' lengths of branches, two loads were big rounds, and the final load was a mix of branches and rounds.

always good to see an oak score

Up at the cabin, Uncle Mike, pops, my older daughter and I. Hopefully we get one for her, it's first trip up here for deer season

I hear CMP has a bunch of them in unissued condition.

Best time of year. Have fun!

I bet with a full mag it's heavier than my 3' Kimber in .45 I cary almost daily, which I find easy to shoot. Glocks just don't work for everyone. I don't have much experience with anything else plastic.

My first Glock was a large frame .45, forget which model. I was skeptical but ended up loving it. Sold it along with many of my non sentimental value guns after I had a fleet of kids.

As far as guns go, as long as they function and are at least moderately accurate, I love them all!

I carry a Glock 19. I like Glocks. Just not in .45.

great score coryj! Oak, dropped and largely bucked for you, sweet.

I just contacted my tree guy to ask about the 'wood pile' in his words, ''Its currently just sh1t3 confier but ...' The but was an offer of a small oak tree coming down wednesday or thursday and notice of a large one coming down in the new year which I can also grab I think we need an Oak score emoji, @dancan would use it all the time! Maybe an acorn with a big grinning face on it ah ...no... we need this 'Mods! Please!'

@Cowboy254 , do you know what e.gunnii aka cider gum is like? a couple of those coming down too, I can't find them in any of the databases I use.
