    Great way to teach you the mechanism and component pieces of the gun.

    While he isn't a gunsmith, Monster can probably tell you within a 5 year span when certain guns were produced, approx. how many were run in a model year, what nations use them for their military, which ones are POS's, rate of fire, what makes one generation better or worse than the others, etc.
    Ever see the fat guy on the History Channel who works for the Armory @ West Point?  Yeah... that would prob. be my son in 30 years.

  2. 1.  OP, if you're located anywhere in Texas, WtH, man?  We did a smashing project for @fuggled & if we can ever get the new gutters painted, the gutter guy will come back & get after hanging them (took awhile for the insurance co. to realize they underpaid on the paint work).  I'm in the aTx area, Fuggy is up N. in the MetroPlex.  I drove up 2x for his work - nice upgrades for him as well.

    ...Anyway...

    2.  Weathered Wood (or "Driftwood if an Owens Corning shingle) is the most common because it is essentially neutral to most other paint colors.  No harm, no foul.  That said, it is a darker color & darker roofing = "heat island affect".

    3.  I'd be more concerned about the brand shingle being used than anything else.  Stay away from Malarkey & IKO.  IMO, CertainTeed is "meh".  Atlas used to be a crap product but around 5 years ago they decided to up the game.  Now Atlas, G.A.F. & Owens Corning all have a solid nail line... very thick & rubbery... holds well.  Atlas ("Pinnacle Pristine") & G.A.F.  ("HDZ") have very long guarantees against algae & stains.  Atlas bought into the "ScotchGuard" thing from 3M.  For Owens Corning (O.C.), they have their "TruDefinition Duration" that, again has the rubber nail line.
    We just put on a new roof for @Felix last week & he went with the Atlas Pinnacle Pewter... plus did some new metal work on his chimney.  (see pic).  In around 2 weeks, we're doing a Georgetown project & this customer is going with Owens Corning TruDef Duration Sierra Gray.

    I paid my deductible to my roofer and then they paid a fee to me to put their business sign in my yard for roughly the same amount. 

    OK, so on to Immortal's response:
    https://capitol.texas.gov/tlodocs/86R/billtext/html/HB02102F.htm

    If you have a recoverable depreciation to collect, this "free roof" business in Texas won't work as of 01 Sept. 2019:

    {the following text is required to be posted in size 12 font, bolded, for all contracts where an insurance claim is paid}
    FOR ALL APPROVED INSURANCE CLAIMS, “Texas law requires a person insured under a property insurance policy to pay any deductible applicable to a claim made under the policy. It is a violation of Texas law for a seller of goods or services who reasonably expects to be paid wholly or partly from the proceeds of a property insurance claim to knowingly allow the insured person to fail to pay, or assist the insured person ’s failure to pay, the applicable insurance deductible.”

     

    Oh, & FYI... Amica is no longer writing policies where there is any RCV (depreciation) that is collectible.  IMO, Germania is good, USAA is turning to shit, Snake Farm & AllSnake continue to be shit & Chubb is where it's at for you Shag-Elite 2%'ers.

  3. Can't be the FBI or NSA snoopin' on perv pics because I ain't got none.

    Was doing a transfer from the phone to my DeLL notebook ('cause I'm pretty jammed with pics)

    image.png.fb8fc0ce8e8edd81c01d0666c3b87658.png

     

    Doing the transfer via connected cable - successfully filed 4 different houses / roofs / siding pics & then *blam* this pops up:

    So I disconnected the cable & reconnected - started out like this:

    Then flipped over to the "lock screen" again.

     

    WTH is going on?

    I’ve been buying the point only from H‑E‑B. For two adults and a 3 year old, a 10+ lb brisket is often too much. These 4-6 lb points have turned out great. Not sure who is buying all the separately packaged flats though. They come really trimmed and I’m guessing come out dry AF. 

    What kind of setup are you smoking over & for how long?

    Got pics?

    when my chakras are aligned, i blow a tremendous wad out of my penis, but i does need a little stimulation. does your free session come with a happy ending?

    Does it matter to you what gender Neikea ascribes to?

  6. Did the ol' "Well... I _g u e s s_ you can paint this fence. I was having fun" thing last night & Monster cleaned my Mossberg 20 pump & Remington 12 auto last night.

     

    I set the table with the Remy green pad, got the kit box out & spread out the guts... as soon as I walked by with the guns he perked up & wanted to handle everything.

     

    Showed him how to break down the 12 & all I had left was the reassembly 20 minutes later.

     

     

    I'm GtG for next Tuesday.

    That Post at 3:15.  Have done that several times in a short Bertram coming into the big jetties.  Scary af. 

    Compare to the smooth operator @ the 2:00 mark.  This guy knew how to glide right through.
