    NFA Wait Times

    For me, taper mount is the only way to go, especially if you ever need to use the gun without a can. The Griffin system offers the widest selection of thread options, and you can put them all into any HUB can. I have a bunch of Griffin's Sportsman series can for hunting, economical, light...

    Another one of Paul’s great work.

    I should have brought by my 338-06 Tikka with the important parts on the correct side so we could take a mirrored picture with them.

    .338-06 Build Completed

    Yeah, was supposed to be G1. Still crazy high.

    .338-06 Build Completed

    Man, that 210 is so tempting for my 338-06, but it simultaneously makes me want to sell it and build a 338-300wsm. I hope the .488 G1 that .250 G7 converts to on the 210is correct. The .611 G1 its on the 225 Etip that I've been shooting makes for a really effective load.

    custom rifle suggestions

    I didn't frame it, because it does that consistently, but I did save pictures for posterity. Paul doesn't know how to turn out crap work, he's a really skilled machinist. We're all blessed that he went full time doing something he loves and is exceptional at. I'll echo what someone else said...

    custom rifle suggestions

    It’s a Model 7 footprint, uses a model 7 trigger and bottom metal so I consider it a 7. The original plan was to use a Remington action, but PTG messed that up twice, and another factory action couldn’t be blueprinted so enter Defiance to save the project. I picked the M7 because it’s even...

    custom rifle suggestions

    Paul does stellar work, I'm embarking on a new project with him myself, after I pick up the one with him currently. If you're looking for someone who really specializes in full custom hunting rifles, you really need to consider @van franke of Plains Precision Firearms. He built my Defiance...

    Or maybe a bad penny always turns up? Or maybe in GG’s own words: "…you don't get what you expect—you get what you deserve."

    Punk Rock Hunt Talkers

    We all find our own place within a genre. The Offspring made me ignore my overbearing parents’ wishes that I didn’t listen to them, but I settled in a little more hardcore than that overall. IMO the real unfriendly punk wasn’t on the radio much anyway, you had to seek that stuff out.

    From wiki: actual birth name, Jesus Christ Allin; August 29, 1956 – June 28, 1993) was an American musician who performed and recorded with many groups during his career. His live performances often featured transgressive acts, including self-mutilation, defecating on stage, and assaulting...

    It’s too bad we lost GG Allin back in ‘93, he’d have been just the man for the job.

    Punk Rock Hunt Talkers

    My wife and I celebrate Rex Manning day as if it were a national holiday (its April 8th FYI). That film has a ton of great music in it, maybe a little on the pop end, but its a legit music movie. Personally, I knew of Dire Straits from them being on my dad's radio growing up, but Empire...

    Jesse from OpIv had a great band later on, way underrated IMO. Then about a year ago Tim and Jesse said they're going to have new material together again for the first time since OpIv, looking forward to that, has a OpIv with dub kinda sound.

    Sometimes? He's overall pretty insufferable, even more so now that he thinks dressing in lingerie makes him unique.
