That is about the temperature Danes have now towards our former friends the Americans
There is a few good videos on youtube with a Danish MEP telling the new president.
Be careful though we Danes have actual free speech, so fair warning.

Frozen gravy........

i've had my backhoe out working the local roads and driveways clearing snow with the front bucket.
working with county workers and equipment as much as i could.

That's a lot of snow man! Damn. I hope y'all don't have many issues with ice as it melts and runs off.

Worst part is, no snow tires or chains available down there.......The best you got are all season tires and they are total garbage.

In fire arms it is called fire lapping..In Airguns Air-lapping i guess..I fully clean my barrels and then take lapping compound and put on slugs..Shoot through your air rifle..It really does work on rough production grade barrels..You can start with 120 grit than 240 grit,and 340 grit to finish up..You have to fully clean inbetween different grits.. Im getting my best results hand lead lapping my barrels first and finish them up with air lapping.. David Tubb makes a proven fire lapping system for powder burners ..So yes it works if you dont have a real quality barrel than is lapped after reaming and again after rifleing.. I drilled and reamed 1000,s of production grade barrels that were rough....Know im learning to make them smooth and uniform... When i built and shot benchrest powder burners good barrels were cheap..I used to buy Benchmark 28inch stainless countered blanks for $230.00...

@RM.510bigbore Have you seen this new high-powered Air Force air rifle? https://hardairmagazine.com/news/new-airforce-tex-rex-announced-for-shot-show/

Nice!!!!A factory Airforce 4500 psi super valve!!!! I want one to buy the valve and tank an upgrade my .510....I have 100 lbs of .510 650 grain spire point boat tails .5 B.C......Yeah!!!!!

President Lincoln was our greatest President… He presided over the nation when Americans were literally “killing“ fellow Americans… Our nations darkess moment… None of the present day political vitriol approaches the discord and death that occur during the American Civil War…

Yeah Abe seem like tough act to follow.
I think Denmark had some nice kings, and some really - really poor ones, at one time the entire country minus a town or two was pawned away.
And the country also was a lot larger.

I dont think we ever had a truly great leader after the abolishment of the monarchy here

Thats not bad, even if i am just interested in the old stuff, though some of the new also work for me.

I am sin after sin now and Jawbreaker,,,,,, OMG i have lost many liters of sweat behind the drums playing that one.

If you are finding them on YouTube and are handy with Google, you can search for programs that will rip audio from a YouTube video and then burn what you like. I cant speak to the 'ethics' or legality of such, and nor will I confirm or deny that I have done that.... but if I had, I'm sure it was very easy to do and a great way to expand your collection.

I tested my phone on the charger, it is a old snapdragon 8 phone ( xiaomi MI9 ) and in MAX turbo charge mode it peaked at 20 watts

If i am not mistaken current high end phones will charge wireless at 50 watts, and i assume about 100 watts on a wire.

Fortunately due to my intense phone hate i do not use / need fast charge, i normally charge on a 2 A charger in the car

/me not been around the internet that long or should i say in the early days maybe frequenting other places.
I got online in the late 90ties, eagerly awaiting flat rate ADSL, CUZ i knew with a pr minute payment it was going to be expensive.
Did game C&C and red alert on a acquaintances dual ISDN line, taking turns to play a match on his computer. Handle viking.66

/me remember IRC
I also remember all kinds of nasty stuff on local News servers

ICQ for comms with friends

Well, I'm from a little before then. Had an email address for 6 months or so in 1979 (USAF).
Then went to work for a company that had a pair of T1 lines in 1980 (1.5Mb each)
My first USENET post was in 1981.

Yeah, News Servers and Groups were mostly unmoderated and anything went.
The wild wild west of the internet.
It sure was a lot of fun.
Rules were pretty simple, take responsibility for yourself, if you don't like what someone wrote, don't read it or ignore it.

Dat be AR15 grip

Zero, unless it's a 3D printed garter for the missus. And I'd think that would scratch the hell out of her.

I've been banging on the keyboard all day, I envy you today!

10 days and counting.

Danes disarmed forever, and in 2012 when they got wise on PCP airguns, they was instantly thrown in with regular firearms, so to get a .22 and up Air rifle you have to take a hunting license, learning things by heart that you can not do with your air rifle CUZ that would be illegal.

Guy in video will see no counter argument from me, CUZ while a bit crazy i can spot insanity easy, and if anything we should do more about insanity in our countries.

PS. i am amazed we have pitch forks here, CUZ that was largely what farmers used rebelling last in 1534 when farmers was pretty much just slaves of the land lords and higher ups in Denmark.
Not that it changed anything, it was still poop until " modern times " hence why so many Danes went to America when they got the chance, CUZ fat chance here.

The issue not even on the agenda here, that’s how whipped Danes are today, a sad shell of their former great self.

Just looking at the scenery in your photo, as soon as you start a thread about shooting the M257 I want to read it. It looks like you're in the right place to really push it out there. I also see you got the longer airtube. What's that attached to the very front of your pic rail?

Yes. I'm in Southern Utah. On 80 acres with nothing around me, so I will be able to push this powerhouse to the limit eventually. The tuning that Rich (Airgun revisions) did is incredible. Didn't expect that much of a difference. The piece on the end is a flashlight.

Rich puts the airtube from the 457 on which makes a big difference. So far I have set up target stands/gong frames out to 150. Will be going further soon, 150 was nothing for this rifle. I have heard of others pulling groups at 400.

That is classy, but hilarious.

Interesting commentary however, he failed to mention their were others in history interested in buying it as well.....It all seems very complicated to me but, who knows.
I would certainly not want Russia or China to take it over?

No People like that we should at least keep at ATACMS length, but i think they are on their way out as i type, the worlds #2 military clearly not doing too well ATM.
And i am pretty sure if China tried something similar we would soon learn that they are just as inept in the ways of war,,,,,, even if killing a lot of people are not terrible hard even with conventional means.

I am mainly concerned with the fallout of these two colossus on clay feet when they fall, CUZ when the poop hit the fan everyone come running to the west us and you guys.

As i recall during WW2 there was both Germans / Americans and British on Greenland, mostly metrologists, not like there was much of a hidden war going on up there.
And more or less since then we Danes had people run around up there feet on ice so to say summer and winter to prove our claim, other just pop up a conning tower of a sub, look around and go hell no and leave again.
You should look up the Sirius patrol, these are the guys that make a winter warfare course in Norway look like a walk in a park during summer.

BTW i have been up there, seen the northern light explode over my head and just gone Duuuuuuuuude
Had a couple of gigs with Royal arctic line that sail everything up there that they can not make them self, so quite a bit.
These ships sail out of the Danish Town of Aalborg, also some times make a swing past faro islands and iceland CUZ we are nice folks and would not like to see other nice folks want anything.

#2 time i sailed as engineer was also up there on a crab factory ship, though i was shanghaied came up there as sailor and was promoted to engineer in a few weeks,

Lovely place, but the guys, lets just say pay day, and you will not see the locals before every dime is used, though before i came up there a guy got back on the ship with money in the pocket, so same night he stole the man overboard boat and sailed down the coast to a place where he could drink the last of his money up.
Police found him after a few days.

Well... Those igloos aren't going to build themselves!

We learned from the Finnes and their Ice hotel.
But we have what we call winter Airbnb, almost free of taxes.

You still need to use the proper B-vent and clearance rings. Your shed will be nice and toasty!

Yeah the roof are just a super heavy duty tarp, also soon having vapor barrier and insulation up there, so will need a proper & safe pass thru for the 120 mm pipe.

I have been procrastinating, it have really been OK weather just daum cold, and even with heat sources in the shed i have not been bothered going shooting.
But if the forecast for THUR - FRI - SAT hold up i will have to go, CUZ by then i will suffering severe range withdrawal symptoms.
Grund here in my part of little Denmark white but only just, but a little more are forecast for tomorrow but we are talking a couple of inches here.

Warm days here ATM is like +2 to +10 deg C, and that is still way outside my comfort zone.

-7F and no snow on the ground sounds very strange to me.
