You've done a beautiful job of accessorising it mate...Now to go back and look for any pipes you may have included in the photo :).Quote:

Tonight, it's going to be some Frog Morton OTB in the Jirsa, the Omar King cutty is getting it's night off in the rack behind it, ran two bowls through it last night, it deserves a rest!

My first 10/22 I bought in 1975 for 52$ at a farm supply store. My dad drove me to get it, I was in the eighth grade. On the way home, he stopped, he had seen a crow in a orchard and asked if I thought I could hit it. Rolled down the window, no cars coming, one dead crow! That started a love affair with that gun that goes on to this day. I have run more ammo through that thing than anything else I ever owned. It went to High School with me, behind the seat of the pickup and even fell out on the road one night going around 40 mph, don't ask. It ground off the front sight and snapped off the rear sight, I shot it without sights for a couple years, then broke down and put a cheap scope on it. The extractor claw thingie fell out once, and I shot it without it, it would cycle rounds in, but you had to dig the unspent round from out of the barrel when you were done shooting. A one dollar part fixed that. Quite possibly the best action Ruger ever came up with, and the rotary clip, genius. I can't say enough about a 10/22. But, I'm biased.Quote:

It puts out the heat! The inside bottom and one row up the side are fire brick. A fellow I worked with restored a stove last year, I'll see if I can find a picture to send you. It came out gorgeous!! Besides being a really cool design to begin with, he did a great job!Quote:
