Update to this thread, Brothers LA Arms in Hammond just posted they will be selling suppressors on 4473 to qualifying customers. I assume you need to be a member of GOA.

You can also try Bayoushooter. It's primarily for guns, but a lot of south Louisiana people are on there and sell all kinds of stuff.
re: staining advice
Posted by jdavid1 on 9/29/26 at 8:46 am to muttenstein
I always condition the wood prior to stain. It's too easy and cheap to not do it right.
I think FB marketplace kind of shut down La sportsman. I haven't been to their site since they went subscription.
As a lifelong console guy I am finally considering getting a PC for some gaming. I have several PCs, but none with gaming capability. I have been playing some VR and want to dabble in PCVR games. Specifically Geronimo (I really like solo tactical games). I'm not a hardcore gamer by any means. Just in the evenings when the family goes to bed.
So the question is, what is a good starter gaming PC? I don't want to spend thousands on something I don't use a lot. Should I just get something from best buy off the shelf, or get something off marketplace? I really have no idea where to start on the different setups.

The pig brig works as advertised. We have been using two of the red river traps. They work well and they are very easy to move and set up.
Pool leaks are tricky so I found out. I have a liner inground pool and it was leaking. There are some pavers lower than the pool and the water was pooling up on the pavers and the pool was losing water. I called my buddy who builds/services pools and he looked at it and told me it would be a good bit to figure it out but would quote me. He said almost all pools leak, but not that bad. After a few days it quit leaking totally. Hasn't leaked in about a year. No explanation as to why.
You're sure it's not evaporating? Have you tried the bucket test?

re: Rat Shot in 22LR Pistol

I'm not aware of any 22 or 9 semi autos that will cycle rat shot. You could probably play around with recoil springs and find something that would work or just manually cycle it like I do.
Sig is doing too much.

I'm a GOA member in a free state and I converted my SA Saint.
I haven't been following very closely to all of this because it usually changes so often I can't keep up. So, with this ruling you can put a stock on a pistol if you are a GOA member and it's good? Is it a legal SBR or is it just a gun? Meaning do you have to engrave it and is it limited crossing state lines without the paperwork?
re: Recommendations for kids outdoor playsets
Posted by jdavid1 on 9/16/26 at 8:14 am to GREENHEAD22
I went through this a year ago. Looked at sets all online. Ended up getting a kit from our local lumber supplier. You can pick out the set and they will give you everything to build yourself. I ended up adding a few things and making it a little bigger, but it was way cheaper than buying a built kit or one of those cheap ones that will fall apart in a few years.

The town has nothing...my advice is to bring groceries, stay away from the touristy stuff, and just enjoy some quiet family time. The restaurants in town are not very good. Find a house with a grill and do your own cooking.
This is spot on. All the food is garbage. We went last year and my family had a really fun time. My kids loved the house which was very family friendly with games and stuff. My kids are 6 and 8 boys. We fished for rainbow trout two days and had a blast catching fish on the river. It's a nice little get away and pretty affordable.

Can’t find one anywhere right now
Bama and Beer just posted a link in the gun deals thread to a site that has them in stock and for $879.00.

Lots of comments about waiting for rain to plant….just plant and cover seeds
We had to do this last year since there was no rain at all in SWMS. The plots turned out just fine without the rain.
Google earth pro is free now. You can save the image to a high res photo and send it to a print company. I just did one that was 4ft x 4ft and it was very clear.

For just a fun gun this will get you there. If you want to shoot some type of match you’re going to spend more $$$
That's just not true. It depends on the type of match. If you are shooting precision then yes, you will need to spend some money. If you are shooting action steel M&P 15-22 will be just fine. I bought one just to shoot steel challenge, and I made master class with it bone stock.

I was talking with someone in law enforcement and involved with SWAT and they said sometimes the trees and bushes can give off heat signatures and it’s tough to identify things.
Sounds like they don't know what they are talking about or they are using some old tech thermals. I got an old FLIR monocular from Wildlife and fisheries on govdeals and it's pretty terrible compared to what is out there now. You can absolutely identify a hog in thick brush or trees with the newer thermals. I can see flying squirrels in a tree with my thermal. I will say there is a big difference in a 25mm vs 35mm. For the couple of hundred more dollars I would for sure go with the 35mm. Don't waste your money on the digital night vision stuff. The price is very tempting, but you will regret it in the long run. Speaking from personal experience on that.
Go check out outdoor legacy gear. They specialize in thermals for hunting, and the owners will talk to you about your specific needs and set you up with the best thermal for you.

If you can spend a little more I would go thermal. Like the AGM Rattler V2 TS35-384. It's around $1800.00. Perfect for hogs.
