Flame thrower you say? The other night I caught part of an episode of Sons of Guns -- you know, those wecsog idiots in Louisiana. Anyway, they restored a WW2 vintage flame thrower to operating condition -- and used it. More impressively they had a special guest. Their guest was an 89-year old Medal of Honor winner who got his medal for actions on Iwo Jima, using a flame thrower to take out multiple Jap pillboxes while himself under withering machinegun, mortar and artillery fire. At 89 years of age, this Fine Gentleman strapped on 70-odd pounds of steel, gasoline and compressed propellant and demonstrated that he hadn't lost the touch he honed in 1945. Sure put a great big Cheshire Cat, Sh*t-eatin' grin on my face.
Snow is a four letter word. Now stop your damn swearing!! Snow...bleh.... March will be month number 5 for us with snow (damn I used it again!) And March well it'll snow some more...6 months..

Lessee, went trap shooting today wit my buds, but we did have to wear a sweatshirt. But had to remove after the second round. Kaliforniacate sucks so many ways, but weather is not on the list.
Dad, gun nut, motorhead, shaved-head biker with a foul mouth and a bad attitude. Living the dream in Free America after escaping the Volksrepublik of Massachusetts...

Open Invitation for New Shooters
Just want to extend an open invitation to all potential new shooters in the Northern Virginia area. If you have never shot a firearm, or would like to get back into the shooting sports, or are an accomplished shooter who'd like to try something in my arsenal, give me a shout.
New shooters get range time, targets, gun use and ammo on me. I've even got extra eye and ear protection - all you have to do is show up.

If I ever had to move back north again, I'd repave my driveway with embedded PEX pipe and hook that up to an auxiliary water heater.
Because I'm lazy.
I just want a flamethrower...
I can't believe Tractor supply doesn't sell them.

Move to New Hampshire. Better gun rights and an average temp of 75. I hear snow is a rarity.

Beautiful nearly Spring day here in Maryland. I doubt we'll see any more snow this year. Here's hoping the same for you.
There's room for you down here, even if you are a Damnyankee (one word).
And *I* will take *you* shooting. ;-)
Snow is a four letter word.
Now stop your damn swearing!!
Snow...bleh....
March will be month number 5 for us with snow (damn I used it again!) And March well it'll snow some more...6 months..

So I shouldn't mention that I was out in a tank top today getting the new veggie garden ready?

How about 85 degrees and running the AC already down here in blazing hot Texas. If it is this hot already the summer is going to be brutal.
