      Open carry a machete in Bloomington

      550 cord gstring, key is to be able to take them off without dropping your pants.

      Minutemen Rifle

      Man I feel old. Doesn't seem that long ago until you do the math. I just know they are still issued (depending on deployment I'm sure) and that their new M27 was required to have a bayonet lug, something my Army friends like to make fun of. Absolutely, Leatherman is way more useful.

      Minutemen Rifle

      What years did they serve? The current OKC-3S is more similar to a fighting knife than the M7 that I trained with back in 2002. I know 2004 in Fallujah saw Marines use bayonets, just not sure of the specifics other than it wasn't for their normal use of opening MREs (lol). I can see situations...

      Name That Snake

      Looks like he is flattening his head to look more threatening (venomous) than he actually is.

      Minutemen Rifle

      Budget AR in either collapsible stock with 16 to 20 inch barrel chambered in 5.56. Preferably with an ACOG or EOTECH for an optic. Personally I like something with a bayonet lug, but if you are going to have it, you should probably train with it. Nothing like needing it and not having it or not...

      The INGO Hardcore Weight Loss/Fitness Thread

      I haven't checked in for a while now. Watching Fat: A Documentary right now. If you haven't seen it, watch it on RedBox streaming for free with ads. After I finish it, I am going to watch Fat: A Documentary 2, it can be watch for free too. A lot of interesting info.

      Generator advice

      It would show up during run up, usually run rough no matter what rpm. It would be really apparent when doing a mag check since the second plug wouldn't be there to cover up the plug or plugs that weren't firing. Can't say running rich didn't play a role as it was a rental aircraft. I know I...

      Generator advice

      That is interesting. I run across fouled plugs on the time on aircraft that I rent. So much that my instructor showed me how to clear the issue during a runup. I wonder if the Harleys are being run up to a high enough rpm and far enough into a lean condition during rides, but the generators are...

      Generator advice

      Its not. The lead can foul the spark plugs on a generator in a day causing it to misfire and bog down under load. In a two stroke, it might be okay. I just dump sta-bil in my fuel cans before taking them to the station. Usually that can sit for about a year from personal experience. Even in...

      Fixing a hot attic

      I have mine set to come on at 100. Any lower than that and I think that it will run too much, any higher and it gets too hot and humid. I think I had looked it up and determined that 100 would help prolong the life of my roof. I put my own fan in. When I cut the hole in the roof, the outside...

      Hikers

      When I went most creeks had at least a small puddle I could scoop water from. By now they are probably completely dry with only reliable spots providing water. They can be seen in the trail guide found at the site KittySlayer posted. It was warm, I went through nearly 6 liters of water. My...

      Hikers

      I tried to hike Tecumseh last week, it was closed about 15 miles in for logging. Turns out that it opened June 1, guess I need to go back.

      What do you miss? (for anyone not a lifelong Indiana resident)

      I have lived a few other places: NC, AR, CA, WA I miss fresh seafood, scuba diving, sailing, "real" snowboarding, a teriyaki shop in every town/suburb, elk hunting, not worrying about venomous spiders or snakes, bear hunting. Even CA you could fish for free from a pier and I would often catch...

      Idiots and near idiots with firearms

      Pretty sure video is fake/edited, doesn't seem like second muzzle flash is in the right place and no impact on the ceiling :dunno: Pause the video at 10 second and manually move the slider slightly. Either way, guy shouldn't be shooting that thing.
