      WTS: 40mm grenade vest - NWI

      24 pocket grenade carrying vest (20 short and 4 long). I've had this forever, originally purchased thinking the pockets had bottoms so I could have a bunch of small pouches for a survival vest, but they are open bottom. Not intending to get a 37mm/40mm any time soon, its time for it to go...

      Anyone familiar with failed emissions test and retest procedure?

      Here is the short of it: MIL was on and the codes turned up to be the O2 sensor. I crawled under to see if I could replace it, but there wasn't enough room on the upstream for me to get to it. I tried, and to try I unplugged the downstream sensor to see if the plug would fit through the hole in...

      Pressure canner owners: When did you last can? *Poll*

      A thread on another forum got me thinking, when is the last time you canned? For me it was a couple weeks ago, and I had run into an issue I had never run into before. I had chatted with a guy at work, he owns a NICE canner. He is the type of prepper who buys everything he can, and is easily...

      Hey guys, this forum has had a recent rash of posts on refilling 1lb propane tanks, but I'm having trouble even finding the specific post I'm thinking about (had some pictures of the process). I'd love to give credit, though its really the SEVERAL of the posts mentioning it that got me to...

      WTS: Nikon 18-105mm VR lens & D200 body

      *price drop* Nikon 18-105mm VR lens & D200 body I got this as part of a package when I got my D7000. Can't afford to keep the lens though, particularly since I have it covered in other lenses. It is a great lens, I had one before and it gave a nice zoom range. MUCH better than the 18-55mm as...

      Great deal on batteries at menards

      They have North Tech alkaline batteries, 60 pack for $8. They are also doing the 11 percent rebate thing, not worth it for a pack of batteries, but I did a little remodeling so I'll just add it to the rebate form. That is about 12 cents per cell, excellent deal! For those not in the know, for...

      Stocking ammo for community defense

      As most of us know, or realize to be true, it is much more likely to experience a personal devestation (job loss, loss of family, etc). After that something that affects your area is much more probable than something that affects the entire state or country. And something moderately severe is...

      WTB: Junk mossberg 500 12 gauge barrel

      Looking for something that has at least 18" of good barrel. I don't care about rust, or the muzzle. I'm looking to practice cutting it down to 18-19" on my lathe, but don't want my first try to be on a good barrel. Whether it is a plain barrel, or vent rib, or what have you. Just looking for...

      WTS: NWI: 1998 Pontiac Sunfire 4 door automatic

      120-130k miles, it is a spare right now that does not get used at all. I'd call it about 50 percent tread left. The good: 4 doors 4 cylinder that gets 27mpg or so average Automatic transmission Has been reliable for me, no major issues (I replaced the alternator some years back, brakes, and...

      Anyone grow worms?

      Just curious? I just took a bit of a census of my worms to see where I was. About weeks ago I ordered a pound of red wrigglers and a pound of european nightcrawlers. I wanted both to vermicompost as well as have some worms for fishing. I just counted around 150-200 or so fishing size worms...

      NW Indiana fishing - I have 3 hours to spend, where to go?

      Friday I have 3-4 hours to myself to go fishing. I'm not good at fishing, not terrible. But, I don't get out very often so I tend to go to the same places that I MAY catch a bluegill or two, but likely will catch nothing. I live in Portage and prefer to stay close (if I have 3 hours does it...

      Hello from Porter County / Portage

      Hey guys, just found the website. I'm happy to find such an active group. I used to be active at ar15.com in the Missouri hometown forum and was quite disappointed when I moved to Indiana and their hometown forum had no activity. Haven't been too active online between hobbies and my young family...
