If youre looking for a topper and arent too concerned with locking it, take a look at Softtopper. I put one on my Ram and love it. I had a hard topper on my last truck and it was a pain in the butt...

Ill preface this by saying I have never really looked at the actual stopping power of this cartridge. But maybe take a look at pistols in 22TCM.
Ive fired a few of them and the recoil seemed next...

This is why I only cast for a few rifles and shotgun slugs. My time is worth more money than what I would save by casting for most pistol cartridges. The cost of the bullets and slugs for the larger...

Sounds like it might have been a needlefish. Ive eaten a few of them and theyre actually pretty good.
How does the extractor look? Any chips, does it look bent? It could just be an issue with the extractor. Might need a new one or a new spring.
And I second Finster101. I would contact HiPoint....

Glad they delivered what you ordered. Theyre a legit company, but my experience with them was not as great.
During the obummer years I ordered some powder from them that was supposedly in stock....
Ive got one of the older SW40VE pistols. I even picked up a complete 9mm slide for it. Gun was $200 new ($250 with a $50 rebate when I got it) and the 9mm slide was $75. The 9mm mags supposedly dont...

Watch out with that Tucson. If it has the theta motor in it then its a ticking time bomb. There is a 2013 Tucson that is a driveway ornament at my house right now. Its blown up 2 motors already...

Indiana can be just as bad. About a month ago I got charged $89 for a toll in Indiana that should have been $9, so I contacted them. They said contact Illinois (since I have an ipass transponder)....

Ive got no problems doing plumbing work. Spent time working for a guy that restored houses that were over 100yrs old. We upgraded all the electrical and plumbing in them so Ive seen a bit. The...

Oh man, back during the Obummer years when powder was hard to find by me I ordered a few lbs from Lohman Arms that was supposedly in stock. It wasnt anything I needed right away, just a few things to...

Back in high school electronics class I built a "shocker box". Basically a car ignition coil on an oscillating circuit with a spot to attach a wire lead to it. Its been used in a few spots around the...

I get antsy if I dont go camping a few times a year. Its something I enjoy no matter the weather...rain, heat, cold, snow...I just enjoy being outdoors away from things for days at a time.

Im glad I bought a newer truck at the end of 2020 with all this craziness going on right now. I had been driving a rusted out 1995 Suburban K2500 for the last 10yrs and had definitely gotten my money...

USPS did me great yesterday by stuffing the box with the wood rifle stock I ordered into a snow bank next to my patio. It was warm enough that the snow was melting, so, by the time I got home from...

The GPU prices are definitely absurd. I, too, have been a PC gamer since the beginning of my gaming days. My current rig was built in 2014 and its about time to upgrade to keep up with the newer...

Forrest, you are awesome! I was just asking for a general "yeah they look about the same size" but you went above and beyond. Seeing that its a 2-piece design makes things a little easier if I do...

Im assuming the only real problems I could encounter trying to do that would be the placement of the holes for the action screws and the trigger itself. Other than that its a pretty simple chunk of...

Thats good to know about the butt plate being the same as the MAS45. It opens the door to a better possibility of finding one. Although, making a butt plate would definitely be easier than the...

Not a bad thought at all. I will see if they can help.
Maybe I can ask them to part out one of their rifles ??

I recently acquired a Mauser ES340B...well, most of one.
