Lewisville gun show a week ago. prices were out of this world high. I saw P mags for 80 dollars each, 870's with tacticool stocks for 1k plus, no AR center fires under 1500 no matter how stripped down or beat up, and no AR platform .22LR for under 800.
They did have some 1911 platform .22LR for 400 though. I breifly thought about it but turned it down.

In case you couldn't tell, My Dad was a huge Colt 1911 fan. We had them all. Gold Cup 45 with the .22 conversion kit. Colt Ace 22. Even had a 38 Super. I looooved shooting that Ace. He wouldn't let me shoot the 45 because I was still a little too young at the time, but being at the range in the lane next to him while he was slinging 45 from the Gold Cup and I was slinging 22 from an almost identical gun is some of my favorite memories.

Drive a manual transmission
I can't. Unless a tractor counts. Have never had a manual to try on. How much different is it than driving a tractor?

A pretty good bit. The older manuals i've driven take a little more control of the clutch. The newer ones are idiot proof manuals.

Manual on Tractor: The clutch is more forgiving.
Manual on Car/Truck: Depending on the gearing, but it is a break point that when you come off the clutch, the accelerator needs to be pushed. Kind of heavier on the right and lighter on the left deal.
Tractors can forgive a lot due to their gearing.

One thing I am doing today that I think is easy as hell is changing rear diff fluid. Most people couldn't even find the rear diff.
Have to fix a generator and pressure washer tomorrow. OB'ers should be able to do that. I'll add a tough one that will separate the hipsters, hear what is wrong with a motor and be right most of the time.
What about hit a penny with an axe 5 out of 10 tries?
I only tie the knots that I need to know how to tie. Any more and it would be showing off
Eta: Hear the difference between fireworks, a pistol, muzzleloader, and a rifle shot. Extra points for picking what caliber
Hit a stop sign with a well placed shotgun shot from 30yds, drunk, going 70mph
