    Appreciate the info ! But what a better time to check the functioning of semi autos out at the range under these adverse conditions ? No I will not be one of those brave souls.

    I was the only one on the rifle range yesterday morning. Hell, it was a toasty 22F! No one shows up when it drops below 30. When I was growing up back in Western PA, we didn't put on winter jackets until it dropped into the teens.

    I have to run down to the dairy to get 6 gallons of milk, I hope it stays cold in the car until I get home.

    Break the rules and you get no bones,
    all you get is ridicule, laughter,
    and a trip to the house of pain.

    My son's troop was going to camp at Minsi this weekend in the winter tents and canx it. The range I work at on weekends also got the good idea to close today at least.

    So I got the fireplace going and had a pleasant morning reading the paper with cat on my lap.

    Don't forget your bread and eggs. I hear there is snow and ice in the forecast for Monday night into Tuesday. You don't want to be caught without your French toast ingredients.
