Your Thursday Rule 5 Puzzle

 And my favorite Gun Bunny on the left.

I think I've figgured it out

 When I get the new (okay, new to me) 3/4 ton at the sales yard, I'll have the salesman tell me to be sure to send that info to the office from your FFL.

He's a used car salesman, so lying is something they do naturally like Millennials.

I guess it's safe to put this up

 Don't tell the wife.
I still don't know how I'm going to tell her.

This is the most expensive rifle I've ever bought.

But she is purdy, isn't she?

Another reason I don't drive Fords

 I shouldn't be bagging on them because I own stock and they didn't screw their stockholders when they took Satan's bailout..................GM.

But when they did away with the full sized Bronco and went with that butt-fugly late 90's body style they lost me.
Their radios suck.
The steering is completely isolated from the road.
Her 2013 has been in the shop more than my 2013 Silverado.

And the final reason is their capless gas filler neck. Which you can't open with a gas can spout, or jamming the pliers part of a leatherman into it.
If you try letting it pour in and seep in, it flows to the ground.
......So you have to improvise with anything cylindrical and handy.


EDIT TO ADD-
I didn't know that it had to use a supplied adapter, and I'm NOT going to dig around in all the crap the wife carries in the back of her cab.

I wouldn't think this would be a good way to get noticed

 ........But I'm not a seller of overpriced guns.
This guy has, since I've been watching, changed almost everything about his ad- except the pics.

Now his starting price is what he originally had it as a Buy it Now price.
But he threw in 500 rounds of steel cased ammo -worth about $300.
And you get the tactikool black stock to go with it.




So, it's true-

 Liberalism really IS a mental disease.


In examining Goldberg’s thread, Evie Magazine's Elizabeth Condra argued that "building resiliency against hardship is the best weapon against depression and anxiety, yet progressive ideology forces its followers to wallow in feelings of helplessness and victimhood. Instead of empowering women and minorities with self-knowledge, strength of character, and resilience to hardship, progressivism encourages victims to stay in a place of fear and helplessness."

Your Rule 5 puzzle

 Relaxing after a hard day on the farm.

I guess I should be glad someone is going to outbid me

 I mentioned it on FB and the wife asked (well told me anyway) ANOTHER gun!?!
I couldn't even say it's my birthday present because I just bought a Colt 1851 Navy last week.

I don't think it would have gone over well if I said, but this one is for you- it would fit you better and it's light enough for you to enjoy shooting :-)

Your last Thursdays Rule 5 puzzle today

 Because every girl needs a little black dress.


Well Yahoo...

 It would have probably lasted longer if you didn't let it become a complete troll farm...

AAR- San Antonio SAXET gun show

Lots of knives and pistols. Plenty of EBRs, too. I got the Colt Navy I bought on Gunbroker and the wife got some moderately overpriced .38 JHP($65 for 50). 

Only saw about three M-1 carbines, assorted bolties and the usual assortment of misc. parts and mags. 

What I didn't see and would have laid down cash for was any 80% lowers. I bet that would be a good seller if anyone tried it. Or maybe there's some legal reason nobody's selling them...

New to me revolver

 Looks like I'm going to be the winner of an Armi San Marco Colt Navy if nobody outbids me.

Now it looks like the ammo shortage is hitting the BP market, too in that when I'm done with the last half pound of Pyrodex, I'm going to have to start making it myself.

The components by themselves are nowhere near what I've seen the scattered examples of online.

I just wonder how much the modern, cleaner version of BP substitute is than the original?
Guess I'll find out.

Now I need to go make a stand for my new semi-reactive targets.
