      LED Light Bulbs

      A few facts about LED bulbs and dimmers. Not all LED bulbs are dimmable. Check the package. The technology for old style dimmers was created long before LED bulbs came into existence. It is a real oddity if they will dim a LED bulb properly. Some modern LED dimmers have to be calibrated to the...

      Trigger upgrade Marlin Model 81 and new tool review

      My Marlin Model 81 was my first firearm and was a Christmas present sometime in the late 50's. After looking up some threads on Rimfire Central I decided to attempt reducing the trigger pull, but used this project as an excuse to get a trigger pull gauge.

      Mike, If you want to go the red dot route, this is the mount that I used. Beretta 92 Sight Mount In the photo, the piece marked A2 is too wide to go into the dovetail in the slide.

      Liquid fuel vs. propane bottles for lanterns and cook stoves

      I stopped collecting Coleman stoves and lanterns some years ago because I was running out of room in the garage. I have been waiting for a power outage so that I can be the only house in the neighborhood lit up. My oldest is from 1945 and the newest is still in the box from 2015.

      Cold Weather Firearm Reliability Testing

      I'm sure my firearms would work fine in the cold, but my body refuses to try your tests. Not sure my gloved fingers would fit into the trigger guard.
