[quote]I thought it was controlled by blade pitch on those? Can't that be trimmed out while the throttles are still connected?

[quote]how does that work with your local FFL. You buy and pay for the can, they get it shipped to them and hold it until your stamp comes in? Or, do you order it and wait until stamp comes in for it to actually get shipped and paid for? [/quote] You buy it and they hold it until the stamp comes...

[quote]Is the only advantage of the trust that more people can use or possess the suppressor? I would want my son to be able to have it down the road but he's just a toddler right now.

[quote]Fine, but why wait a whole month after Deer season? I have at least 10 hogs per 1 deer. Those SOB's need to be taken out. Then it gets too hot and the mosquitoes get too bad to hunt. Let me hunt in February. It's not public land anyway. [/quote] I just turned in our club's outlaw quad n...

re: OWB - Conceal Carry

Posted by 650Pirate on 9/23/15 at 5:06 pm
Here's what I carry. The 43 conceals great and is my go to as of late. It is easily concealed appendix under a T-shirt. The 19 conceals easy in the same position. Winter carry - I like have it OWB at 3 o'clock under a jacket too. I made these holsters myself but there are plenty of good guys in the ...

I really liked the BFG KM2's I had on my DD avalanche a while ago. Now I run the BFG A/T KO2 on my Z71 Suburban and like them a lot too. a little more docile on the road. But the KM2's were a great riding tire on and offroad and lasted me 45-50k miles. I purchased from 4wheelparts.com and bought...

I heard on the radio the other day that Sprite has been proven to be the best drink for a hangover. I personally, haven't found it to be true. I do agree with sweating it out though. I got in my yard the other day after a real bad one. Thought I was going to die during the activity but when I was do...

Another vote for the KO2's. have the 285/65/18's on my Z71 Suburban. I haven't had them on more than 5,000 miles but so far so I like them a lot. They ride real nice but look more aggressive than most other A/T's imo. ...
