It's about the same here,, LE. It sure looks like a blizzard, and will get worse if the wind picks-up.

The wind is already starting to pick up here. A little snow isnt going to stop me from going to work, but then again my truck has 35'' tall tires and I live almost 1 whole mile away (.6 miles according to Google maps) lol.

Ohhh, a potential challenger ! ..... bring it !

Your will to win this ammo is strong, lets test RRs lol

Nah this one only has 3” ish of lift. The original Big red chevy maybe but that got taken out by an old man in a Lincoln. Sadly this one isnt even a chevy

The sun is out, and it’s a balmy 11 degrees in Texas. It’s a beautiful day for camping.
It’s about time to fire up the grill. View attachment 125937

I never missed any work due to weather either.
This one was named "The Beast" for obvious reasons. Rolled on 44" Monster Mudders.

Nope, not even ! Although they're 'sugar-free', they still have 35 calories in them.
Every calorie counts !

Dang. That's commitment!

Not too eventful on the way home. That dang wind will cut you in two. Driving my old Grand Cherokee, wife's driving the Wrangler.

[churchmouse]

OK peoples save for some fine tune work when I actually get to shoot it this one is done.

Picked up a nice S&W HE Target that had an interesting story. Most know that when the British left France through Dunkirk in 1940 they got most of the army out, but left all the equipment in France. With the Germans just across the channel and an army with no guns, England had no big gun owning tradition like we have here in the US, there simply were no guns to equip the army.

Acting fast the British Purchase Commission is formed using the country's vast gold reserves to buy anything that shoots. Keep in mind this is before Lend Lease so it's a cash and carry deal. This revolver was made in 1940 for the domestic target shooting market and like much of new production was simply bought in a lot. Going to England it gets proof stamped and a British lanyard attached. Probably never saw combat from the condition it is in, maybe sat in an officers holster, or guarded a base. After the war it comes home somehow before 1968, maybe with a returning GI.

Still shoots just fine, many years after being there and back.

Great back story LE. Seriously I could see all of that in my mind.

I gotta give that kutinup guy props for still coming back. I took a real short detour through the political section and the amount of **** he takes while maintaining his cool and still coming back is unreal lol. I wouldnt expect any less from a 2A forum but damn, i think id have thrown the towel in if i were him.
