I've been using Kroil for about 15 years. Be advised, it will discolor certain metals. Found that out when I soaked one of my .22lr suppressors that had a monocore that got stuck to the cylinder. The cylinder ended up with a nice, light purple hue. 😀 Watt'sa matter with purple? Nuttin. Works fine. Gemtech GM-22. Very lightweight. Works like a Champ. Compliments Dead Air Masks nicely. So it made the anodizing change color to something like old Bushmaster purple?

The Jets over they AVs 7 to 6, there is nothing like a 13 goal game nomatter who wins. As far as the Florida battle, I am torn since I live halfway between the two teams though I think the Panthers are the better team.

common to use a spit coat of sealer on open grain wood though I never used wax. fill the grain, sand then stain or finish.
I used shellac (not the best choice) on a stock before using the oil.

This needs to be a good reminder to have a high liability limit and a high uninsured motorist coverage. At least $500K.It cost very little more and there are more un/under insured out there than you might think. My brother in law had an inattentive lady driver in a Suburban cross over the center line and demolish his Ford Escape. Killed his wife, broke both femurs on his teenage son, and crushed him in pretty bad. The other driver had $50K max and my BIL had $30K uninsured motorist coverage. The offending driver wouldn't talk to us and filed bankruptcy.
BIL had a Million $dollar case and didn't recover enough to pay his medical bills which his medical insurance company insisted come out of the settlement. He is now broke and mentally crippled over how things went.

Re: Mule Deer and all others.....Sweden Disaster

In 2008 I was returning from Zim with my .470 N.E. and .416 Rigby. I did not bring any ammunition back. Cleared customs with no issues and then was advised to take my rifles to the domestic counter and recheck them there to my home destination. I was stopped on my way to the domestic terminal (a short walk that did not require leaving the airport) by a NY transit cop who told me that if I left the international terminal with the rifles I would be arrested for violating the Sullivan law. I showed him my ID card from the law enforcement agency I had honorably served with and my current qualification card pursuant to HR 218/18USC 926 (c), The transit cop saiid that was only good for handguns and these were rifles, again threatening me with arrest. Finally, an NYPD Sergeant came by, asked me to come with him and he walked me to the domestic counter and assisted in getting my rifles checked in to my home destination.
I will never transit the JFK airport with rifles again, Quite frankly, I can see no good reason to ever go to NYC in the first place, though I have carried a handgun there previously with no issues.
In the early 1960's my parents were divorced and lived on opposite coasts. I lived on the East coast and my father on the West coast. When I would travel to the west coast I would bring my .30/06 Winchester Model 70 with me. I carried it in a padded. zipper case and handed it to the stewardess who would put it in the pilot's coat closet and hand it back to me when we reached our destination. No muss, no fuss, no runs, no hits, no errors and no men left on base. A far cry from the PITA we sometimes face today.
En route, we would be given the ground speed, the wind speed, wind direction, the current time, and distance to the Alamo. If you got the time, within a minute, that we were abeam the Alamo, you were given a bottle of champagne. It was not a complex calculation and more often than not, despite being only 14 years old, I would disembark the aircraft with my Winchester Model 70 and a bottle of champagne. It was a far simpler time! And BTW, God bless National Airlines!

Health Information Probing and Packaging Act. (better name for them)
Did you know that there were internet companies out there that gather patient information, bundle it, then market it. Did you know that as of last legislation in 35 states now require their registration in the DOPL of those states under separate business organizations. Did you even know that your health information was handled by AI chips.

Re: Do you keep count.

Killed a bunch of critters, if I ever cared about keeping count I've lost interest a while ago. Perhaps I should have kept a data set as it makes sense for referencing. The sharing of memories with family, friends and meeting fellow outdoorsmen has been my bragging board!
