CZickiness XXXVIII Reboot. To Honor a friend

[churchmouse]

Someday I’ll add another 1911 to the stable, no 97 for me. For some reason I’m on a long gun kick... Disappointed to see the Benelli Nova disappeared from the classies. At least gave me something to think about.... Next wants: Henry lever .22, 12g pump and a Tippman .22 just cause they are made here in the great Fort of Canada. That’s all for now...

We have a sweet Henry golden boy lever gun.
it resides over the fire place.

 

[churchmouse]

Crap. That one is the Marlin. This is the Golden boy...

I like my G42 quite a bit. Bought it new for $345. Likely won't see that price point again.

You beat hers - I just sold mine to her for $350.. With 3 extra mags, 70ish rounds of (range) ammo, and a holster. I thought it was a pretty good deal to me. Folks are asking for $450, 500, 550 for just the factory box and two mags. Woah..

I love the Henry .22 LR. Sweet little gun. I bought mine when I got a new credit card - got $150 back on it, I think. Great purchase. Honestly, I'm thinking about buying a second one in the youth model just to make it a little easier for the kids in the family.

Think it's time to wind down for the evening. Have a good night, everyone.

Been a long day.
I am hitting the couch and watching more of the Mandalorian.

 

[gmcttr]

I'll get the lights.

 

[churchmouse]

Thanks.

I have some shopping for materials tomorrow.
I am building a custom wood trunk for the 14 year old.
With a lock on it.

 

[ChrisK]

Yup. It is a serious sweet heart.

Yes it is and I thank you so much for selling it to me.

There are a few of these among the group.

Good morning CM. Looks like you had as much luck sleeping in as I did.

Morning my friend and yes.......

Pain. It is your friend at this point in an active and sometimes rough life.

How are you set up for Mags...???

Not bad. I have ~8 PMAGS. I am a bit bummed I sold a buddy of mine half a dozen still in the wrapper a few years back.

I did. Buddy of mine took swapped a 1-8 onto his RDB and had this sitting around.

Very nice deal. How do you like it? I have a decent Bushnell on my frankenrifle that I was thinking about swapping to my new battle build, but that looks pretty sweet.

 

[wtburnette]

Oh and good morning all...

8 is not enough and no where near to many...

Okay, now I have that darn optic on the brain. Unfortunately they're $200 new, but Cabela's have them in stock locally so I might need to take a drive today:

Vortex Strikefire II Red Dot Sight | Cabela's

The tactical red dot sight you want when situations demand split-second target acquisition and maximum field of view, the Vortex Strikefire II makes it easy to shoot with both eyes open. Great for

I like the Strike fire line. I still have 1 on an AR but the rest have been upgraded to EO's or better over time. You will like it I promise.

 

[wtburnette]

Good enough for me. I'll check with The Outdoorsman in Greenwood first and maybe Point Blank, since I have a gift card there. Otherwise a trip up North is in future.

Hmmm...

VMX-3T MAGNIFIER

...Pain. It is your friend at this point in an active and sometimes rough life.

Fortunately pain is not generally the problem. A new medication several months ago kept me awake or at best I would wake up every hour for 4-5 hours before I could not get back to sleep.

I switched to a different med a week ago and I'm not sure yet if it will cause the same problem or if I'm still getting the original med out of my system. Last night was the first night since the switch that I went to sleep without a "sleeping aid". Unfortunately it only lasted 4 hours but I'll take it.

It's my 1st world problem.

 

[wtburnette]

Sorry to hear that. Poor sleep sucks (from an expert)...

 

[gmcttr]

Hmmm...

VMX-3T MAGNIFIER

I picked up the Vortex MICRO3X MAGNIFIER recently but haven't tried it out yet. I don't generally use a magnifier so the QD mount on the micro is convenient. Of course the catch is they retail for about $100 more than the VMX.
