Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Mrs. Bee has mentioned the interest in a 20ga clay gun last few years.. y'all know what a nut I am for my birth year '71 so the hunt was on for a birth year gun for my better half.. had some prospects but nothing jumped out at me..
friend of mine at work showed me a low res online picture of this.. he said hey, may not be an '81 but sure would be nice if I don't find what I was looking for.. so what the heck, I called the shop and just about fell out of my chair when he said 5C3 model and PZ serial! brought it home couple weeks ago to hide 'til her birthday in may.. thankfully I don't think she pays any attention to my internet ramblings so secret should be safe with us.. hopefully she'll be as excited as I am LoL little bit of research I've done so far, these were hand engraved (1978-1984) and held in high regard.. 20ga and skeet models both possibly a little less common too.. I called Browning right after I purchased it and the historian expedited a letter addressed to her.. my name on the envelope of course and nothing out of the ordinary for me to get mail from gun companies ![]() 1981 Browning Citori Skeet Grade 5 20ga ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Sort of random pic from work today. Around 7:30AM this guy and a couple of buddies parked suspiciously close to another one of our workers 3/4 ton 4x4 Ford. They hopped out and quickly lopped off his catalytic converter, tossed it in the back of their truck and sped off.
Couple of our employees saw most of it but were unsure of what was happening. Non car guys. One fella got a good pic of the thief's truck. Cops came and even though there was a picture and witnesses they said they couldn't do anything about it. Something about the crime was under X amount of dollars. This world is really screwed up these days. Well here is the picture, I doubt they are heading out of state on a crime spree (heh), watch out for these low lifes if you are local-ish

I have "alert" cameras on my truck and they would probably still get away with the cat before I could even get out there. The punks are stealing them in braod daylight around here. Walmart parking lots, etc. I read that a car dealership had damned near all of the cats stolen from cars on the lot overnight, not long ago. |

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
judging by the position of the hitch after a jackknife and rollover, I'd say safety chains saved it from runaway..
more likely hitch coupling failure like underrated ball (see made in china) unlubricated ball (see heat fatigue), untorqued locknut, improvised hitch pin, improvised coupler safety pin or none, or general lack of common sense..

my sidewinder had 2, one bolted to the winch mast for the front boat hook, and one on the transom tie down , as well as the transom tie downs. a safety chain at each end of the boat will stop it from leaving the trailer, even if your tie downs break, instead of becoming airborne...a missle...a traffic pylon...cargo in the back of your truck.... where i live, having at least one boat safety chain is mandatory |

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Dropped off my keg gas tank for the 68 to have the bulkheads welded on for the fittings . I don’t have a tig and the mig doesn’t look as clean on the welds. But he had out his rat rod that’s almost done . Completely custom chassis built in house with a 1500 Hp diesel with 2000 ft pounds of torque. He’s trying to get it done for the Carlisle truck show .

I miss my 88 Toyota truck . This I believe is a 90 but I’d take it in a heart beat

My old deer stretcher. Yard art now. It's over 50 years old. Looks like a minibike gone wrong,

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
$2k to weld on a converter? What am I missing? And some of those converters are grand theft as a standalone crime.
