The CZickness XLI and on to what's next

Good evening all. Caught another chipmunk.

What trap, and bait are you using, my friend ?
I tried last year to snag a chipper, and only caught a stupid baby opossum in my trap !
He looked scared, and I felt badly for him, so I let him loose in my bamboo.

Are they doing that much damage? The one in my backyard jungle doesn't do much except aerate my yard.

I was asked about the JP silent captured spring a few days ago and replied that I didn't notice much difference. I don't remember which rifle it's in. However I didn't let that stop me from ordering the one in the photo. Not a lot of help am I?

If you have a buffer spring noise problem, a little light grease on the spring usually ends that.

Sorry I missed that. The reviews I'd seen had said something similar, but real people on the internet vs. strangers on the internet.

I haven't tried an ambi lower yet. This one looks very nicely made. Every once in a while I wish I had ambi controls so I'll give this one a try. It's been in the safe unused longer than normal for me.

Cool. I'm a lefty, my niece (should be ever get interested) is also a lefty. So ambi-controls are very appealing to me. I've got another 3 weeks to wait on the ADM lower.. Of course, the day after I ordered, Brownells and Primary Arms had them in stock.

I really like ADM mounts, so I bet that your lower will be top-notch !

Sweet! But the prices on their mounts make me cry a little.

I have often wondered about getting some bamboo. Was never sure what would do well this far north. Anything cane pole size or larger in diameter would be of most interest. Too much shade might be a problem as well.

Add to my education please.

""You know it....but particularly their quick-detach mounts get top marks, and are also respected in real war zones !

Ours is just plain jane American bamboo. It does prefer full-sun. It'll only get cane-size, and never the huge diameter of Asian species.

I see, I suppose QDs would make sense if I had more expensive glass and wanted to move things rifle-rifle.

I'm off to bed. Goodnight, all.

Just basic sunflower seeds is the bait. I've had the best luck setting the trap right in their path, in our case, they make paths to the bird feeders.

They dig out sand from under our patio and dig under the foundation. Wouldn't mind them other than that.

I keep playing with the idea asking about polymer 1911s in 9mm and tagging him, but I fear the


Live Q&A with SAS on YouTube. He approves of the ADM UIC lowers. So I'm feeling a little happy with the choice I have to get started.
Apparently Centurion will be having new products and clearing out some old products if interested.

Edit: BCM stuff should be here tomorrow. Whoot.

Uh please don’t.
life has thrown a very solid sandwich curve ball at us. Total life changing event. Nothing will ever be the same for us again. Info has info been filtering into the compound and I can escape the confines of Eskinazi to review what few options Remain for me and mine.
look for a serious fire sale coming very soon.

I don't follow this CZ thread much but I keep checking for updates. Me and mine are still praying for you and yours CM. Just wanted to let you know we care.

Good to hear from you Tim. Not good to hear negative news. PM inbound.

 

[Ruger_Ronin]

Momma's new pug is ready for the range. Inspected and cleaned. The finish is left wanting (expected), but the DA pull is light and crisp. Should be a good fit for her.

MM, that’s a **** sandwich… fight it!

I oscillate back and forth .... still pondering what to do.

Tim, I’m keeping you and your family in my prayers!
