No firearms will be carried on this trip. I know that sounds insane, but the Canadian government has gone into full oppression mode in regards to firearms and personal liberty. To get approval to travel with a firearm through Canada requires permission from the state. That process can be done...
In a few weeks, I will be making my annual trip to Alaska. This trip will be different though. Instead of flying, I will be driving up the Alaska Highway.
The plan is to fly out to Salt Lake, Utah and meet a friend who is driving up. From there, we will head to Great Falls, Montana, then north...

East Dayton/Riverside is a rough area. In fact, 99% of the City of Dayton is medium/high crime area. (Dad was a Dayton police officer) The federal property the museum sits on is pretty secure.
The towns around Dayton are pretty safe. There is some spillover from the gangs and drugs in Dayton...
Grew up in Dayton and remember when they built the first hangar. Attended the Boy Scout Bicentennial Jamboree at the museum in 1976. Plan on at least two days to see everything. It is an awesome museum.
Done. Installed the Apex Trigger and Safety. The Sear block already had the Safety Detent and spring installed. Pistol had zero lube but that has been corrected. Function check was good. The Apex trigger is a huge improvement over the stock trigger. Hope to get to the range tomorrow and wring it...
Update. The show is in the 4H livestock barn. It was a wee bit chilly but a good number of vendors. Got a good deal on some mags. One vendor had a box of very used Lorcin, High Point and Jennings pistols for $85 each. Overall, prices were typical for local gun shows. One dealer had very nice...

Eight miles from Kokomo to Greentown is going to be rough.
Be careful driving by Brian's Surplus. That place pulls you in, and you will want to spend money.
