    It's been cold here for sure........I am by Chicago for a few months not back Home in the Black Hills....It was-5 early this morning and got to about 15 here....I told some people in South Dakota we call that early fall...lol.....The very sad part is there are a lot of fires in homes and apartments as people use space heaters...Also today alone at Midway Airport SouthWest cancelled about 260 flights!!!!!! They showed the lines of people some stranded on their 3rd day...Some they say may not get out till Monday...But Monday they are calling for a high of -10 !!!
    I remember in sept 70 when our jet landed at Cam Rahn Bay for the 15 mins or so before the door opened it got hotter,hotter and Hotter..Then they opened the door and the brightest sun I ever seen in my life and it was like a blast furnace...
    I always slept in a hootch as I was aviation not Early 1st Cav...YOU on the other hand slept and worked in the jungle...So I deeply respect you guys..Take care Old Soldier...

    If you knew them like I do, you would be laughing at them. Is that the one where they go to Barrow?
    There might be more than one though.

    Hey MadCritter, I've got a thread going and could use some input. http://www.survivalistboards.com/showthread.php?t=293872


    In your opinion, what would cause a 1911 to chamber a round without the extractor engaging the rim of the case? This causes a failure to return to battery and is difficult/slow to clear.

    I'm thinking too much tension on the extractor. Any ideas? Thanks :thumb:

    I'm doing carpentry work now. Interior trim in the surrounding area....I go wherever the work is. I really enjoy the work, but there's no money in it.

    I did manage to shed a few pounds and get myself in better shape though. :)

    Working at the last place made me soft. :D:

    Congrats on the retirement! Good Luck Brother :thumb:

    I was going to say that I haven't seen you post in while, but I see your last activity was only a couple days ago.

    Hope all is well :thumb:
