    Anyone using this camp stove & case ?

    What doesn't have one of those stupid California stickers?

    Front Runner Wolf Packs

    I have two new ones stacked in my garage. I put a straight-edge along the top at the highest points, and measured. 18 & 1/8 inch high (18.125").

    Front Runner Wolf Packs

    They arrived; they seem nice. I had no issues with the latches (first time I've ever held one of these boxes, much less tried the latches). We'll see how well they do when put into use.

    RotoTrax, where are the reviews?

    I'm not excited about them just by looking at the link given. And the Rotopax mounting brackets are expensive at around $55 (this is just one site doing a quick google search)...

    Post favorite pics of your rig and trailer

    I wired my Willys for running an electric brake controller, so now it can pull (and stop!) my little homemade trailer. I'm planning on taking both on the WABDR this September.

    Birthday gun for myself.

    I am looking forward to pictures and your impression of it after you put some rounds through it.

    Front Runner Wolf Packs

    I may have been on their Africa site. Will try again. And I did. I made sure I was under the good-ol' US of A this time when I went to order. Should arrive on 11 May (six days from now - that's reasonable - I'm in no rush). I just spent almost $100 for two of these things ($98.02 to be...

    Front Runner Wolf Packs

    I've been using the 8-gallon Action Packers for years and have been happy with them. They're kept in the back of my little adventure trailer, and space hasn't really been an issue. But this fall (depending on this whole Virus thing) I'm hoping to go for a week with my 46 Willys CJ2A and no...

    Birthday gun for myself.

    Is yours a "Mare's Leg" configuration? Would like to see a picture. I've only seen model 92s with a 16" barrel as the shortest.

    Birthday gun for myself.

    I must be bored. Here's a comparison between a 16" barrel Rossi Model 92 357 lever action (pictured is a 44 Mag version), and a 12G Shockwave. Length: Model 92: 34". Shockwave: 26.5" (not as much of a difference as I originally thought). Weight: Model 92: 4.8 lbs. Shockwave: 5.25 lbs...

    Birthday gun for myself.

    It is a slippery slope; the anti-gunners goal is to ban/eliminate ALL guns. To them it is always just one more. I figure the lever actions will be the last to go though; too much Americana in them. I've also got a Henry 22 LR lever action. Buy them while you can. With the firearms like...

    Birthday gun for myself.

    For some reason I've been mulling over your question ever since I first replied. And as I mentioned before, I have a Rossi lever action model 92 44 Mag in SS with a 16" barrel (modified by Steve's Gunz to include the 3/4 big loop), and a blued Marlin lever action big loop guide gun in 45-70...

    Birthday gun for myself.

    Check out the Skinner Bush Pilot survival kit (you might have to scroll down just a bit to get to it). http://www.skinnersights.com/ $1499.00 for either 357 or 44 Mag. I so want one for myself. It would fit just right behind the seat of my Jeep. It comes with the case and everything you see...

    4x6 trailer height?

    Just for fun....

    4x6 trailer height?

    How much are you planning on putting in your trailer? Will it be a lot of relatively light but bulky stuff (like sleeping bags)? Are you going to have stuff in containers (like Rubermaid Action Packers)? Think cubic feet (volume: length x width x height). You don't want to go to all the...

    Mini Bike Camping

    This is the main place I get parts for for my mini baja minibike. I guess I've had it now for about 15 years. I did the torque conversion fairly soon after getting it. I think the only things I've replace are the tires, and the carb (sat too long not being run and ruined it)...

    Ewww… can we get back to minibikes?

    Mini Bike Camping

    I bought my little Mini Baja minibike after my first tour to Iraq - 2005. It is pretty much the same thing as the Coleman minibikes mentioned previously. I replaced the centrifugal clutch with a torque converter set-up (an early version of the CVT transmissions currently popular in cars). It...

    Shovel mount hardware - new ideas?

    Honestly, my shovel is the cheapest thing they could steal off my trailer, and easily replaced from any hardware store. I'm using Quick-Fists. I've got bike locks running through my gas cans, and attached to the trailer. Maybe a bike lock through the handle? Mine would reach if I wanted to...

    Suggestions requested

    A Marlin 45-70 lever action guide gun is a popular rifle up there. But you're more likely to carry your bear spray with you because of convenience. I'd have both available personally.
