Save trees, shoot steel

As far as handguns, if you’re after a modern plastic semi auto, then I’d go to the range and (rent) shoot the “common ones” see what you like best. Some really do feel different in the hands when your shooting vs when you’re just holding them (Assuming you even have a proper grip, no offense).


For rifles, they feel different but, an entry level 308 is all you need to start learning. Upgrade to a nice rifle in a few years (and few thousand rounds). That Ruger American would be a great start.


Of course, all opinions. Who am I lol
I can talk ya ear off tomorrow if the topic comes up


*as far as AR’s go, buy yourself a $100 lower and sit on it. At least you’ll have bought “the rifle” on paper and will be grandfathered in, in case the laws go even more south (you know they’re coming for semi autos).

 

I have this in .308 also. Nice inexpensive rifle.

 

Sportsman's Warehouse has the Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22 on sale for $320 right now...

Looks like Chico and Redding are the only locations with them in stock right now. Rancho had one last week, but...........

 

So my bed battery is shot. Bought a battery tender and I’ve left it plugged in 2 seperatevtimes gor 2-4 days and it still only gets up to 8.4V steady. It’ll be 13.3-13.8 charging but dropped off within minutes.

What house batteries is everyone running? Looking for purely deep cycle most Amp hours I can get.

 

Lol. Looks mean for a .22

 

If you'd prefer the less mean look, I believe Rancho may still have the pink camo one in stock.
(it's the one they had me use to show I knew how to handle the boom-boom-stick)

 

For a .22 you cant go wrong with the Ruger, but Henry rifles are the shit!
Hey Dave, is that you in the "Scottish see you Jimmy hat" at the bottom of the page?

 

Who dis on tribute road, sacramento. Sitting on fox resis and all pro ucas.

 

What kind of tender do you have, and does it have a reconditioning mode (desulphation)?
I nuked my trailer battery through neglect because life, but when I got a new deep cycle for it I also bought a CTEK maintainer.

I got this one, but apparently this specific model in currently unavailable. Anyway, worth looking itno if if have a spendy battery to keep alive.

Yeah, at 8.4v you lost 2 cells. Usually once they are gone they gone.

Also..i want that shotgun. Sex in a barrel

 

Looking at rebuilding my Icons. I called a couple shops in the direct vicinity of San Francisco like 4 Wheel Parts and A1 Spring Service both in Oakland, but both said I would need to send it into Icon.

I called Rock and Road Performance up in Loomis who specialize in rebuilding suspension and they said they could do both my coilovers for about $100 each with a complete rebuild and new uniball bearings.

Has anyone had any experience with them, or can anyone suggest any other shop who rebuilds suspension? I would go to Rock and Road it’s just they’re a good four hour round trip and I would prefer someone local to the East Bay.

 

Yup. They did mine. I highly recommend them. Drive down and make a day trip. They can have you done in one day.

@tyfoon11 recommended them as well

 

That’s awesome. How much did you pay?

 

Rock and road rebuilt my icons as well. Nice guys up there.
