NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Just rereading the release on this... Why the exception for Clark, Cowlitz, and Wahkiakum counties? Is it a Portland thing? Something along the Columbia more generally?

Edit: I'm an idiot and browsed the top half, evidently.

 

Camp meat?

 

Lights on for safety

 

More traction bruh

 

I guessed the first pic to be that exact spot, couldn’t really tell where the second one was

 

Hey y’all, weren’t you guys talking about some REI member discount? Are any of you guys a part of that?

 

Are you referring to 9 RCW 41.60, the paragraph titled "Exceptions to the prohibition of concealed carry of pistols"?
The statute also cites "bonafied outdoor activity". Walking down the street is an outdoor activity in my opinion.
In my opinion nothing in that statue permits carry of a loaded pistol in a vehicle. Better to have a concealed pistol license.
DISCLAIMER: I am not a lawyer, nothing I say should be relied upon as legal advice.

 

RCW 9.41.050

(2)(a) A person shall not carry or place a loaded pistol in any vehicle unless the person has a license to carry a concealed pistol and: (i) The pistol is on the licensee's person, (ii) the licensee is within the vehicle at all times that the pistol is there, or (iii) the licensee is away from the vehicle and the pistol is locked within the vehicle and concealed from view from outside the vehicle.

 

RCW 9.41.060
Exceptions to restrictions on carrying firearms.

The provisions of RCW 9.41.050 shall not apply to:

(8) Any person engaging in a lawful outdoor recreational activity such as hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, or horseback riding, only if, considering all of the attendant circumstances, including but not limited to whether the person has a valid hunting or fishing license, it is reasonable to conclude that the person is participating in lawful outdoor activities or is traveling to or from a legitimate outdoor recreation area;



I'd even argue ORVing is a lawful outdoor recreational activity.


I'm not a lawyer so it's up to your interpretation not mine.

 

It would be an argument but I'd wager you'd be making it in court and not on the side of the road since the examples all have the individual in the outdoors and not inside of a vehicle. Easier to ccw or separate the ammo from the gun while in the vehicle.

 

The gun talk can die down, I have exercised my rights. Thank you to anyone that helped me make an informed decision. I am new to all this, and just a young man.

 

Congrats, glad you could squeek in before the door closed. And no need for the gun talk to die down, the only thing that gets me through most boring days at work is gun porn and truck porn, it's even better when I can get both in the same place. Having to stick around for 8 hours a day regardless of how much work there is to do can get old, especially with one week left until the holiday shut down we aren't exactly cranking up the workload.

 

do any of you use the Honey app to auto apply coupon codes during checkout? I'm looking for a scope and Honey gets me this for $376.

Ive used it a bit on my laptop at home. The plugin for Chrome/Firefox and not the App though. Havent realy gotten to use it to much though since most stuff is bought via Amazon and they dont really have any discounts there.

 

We use the honey app to track the cheapest price on Amazon for the same thing. Pretty weird how much the price can vary from week to week or seller by seller.

Yes, actually.

 

Yeah I use camelcamelcamel for tracking prices on some stuff on Amazon so havent done too much with Honey

 

Aside from trucks and guns, anyone in here got any other hobbies? What kind of winter/long term projects y'all have going on?

I'm also really into cars, mostly Audi/Porsche. Due to a lack of free time due to other priorities I hadn't had a "fun" car for a couple years, but I recently decided it was time to get something to tinker with again. I was initially looking for another 911, but I wanted one with a blown engine to do a motor swap in. I decided I don't quite have enough available free time for a project of that size yet, so I abandoned that plan for now. Instead, I ended up "adopting" a friends 4.2 A6 that has been sitting for a few years.

I actually did most of the initial build of this car almost 9 years ago, so I know all the modifications are done well. It needs some TLC, but nothing too crazy. Mostly it just needs some deferred maintenance addressed and some cosmetic restoration. The big issue is the transmission, which is starting to slip under load. It should just need a new valve body, but if that isn't the case I'm going to attempt an manual transmission swap, which hasn't been done to one of these as far as I know.

Here's the old girl in her current state:


This is what it looked like back in its prime:



Although I should probably fix the mechanical issues and get it back on the road before I start buying other parts for it, I couldn't pass up a deal on some new wheels, so I picked these up this weekend:

 

I really just find myself trying to fly fish and bird hunt in my free time. Camping and those things seem to co-exist with each other. I’d like to get a new car next year, I’ve wanted a new Mustang for a while but I think we’ll probably just end up getting my lady a new car next year probably a new Outback. We have dogs so we pretty much have to both have dog friendly cars.

Here’s a pic from this weekend of my girl looking proud of herself from the days hunt, there’s not much else out there that makes me happier than watching her do her thing.

 

And really my only ongoing project this winter is continuing to teach Rebekah how to fly fish, because if she knows how to do it and enjoys it, that means I’ll just get to go out and do it more often!

 

Did this from 1995-2001

Attempting to be a parent, I switched to four wheels.

Did the Uber super sedans; lurking from 2006 until 2010 due to pricing depreciation.
Picked up a used 2003 RS6 in 2010 at a tiny used shop near Hollywood, CA.
Prior owner was some famous artist/painter/designer (I didn't GAF).
36K miles when I got it, sold it three years later with 68K.
Everything to repair or replace on that was $1000.

I'll see if I can find a photo or two of that car...

switched to the Tacoma whereas I don't care if I get a scratch on it or dirty.
