on a lighter note...

Vacation in Siberia isn't so bad (Sheregesh)View attachment 450398View attachment 450399
Until the end of the cold war we were told women in the USSR were built like a box and dressed in dark, drab clothes. When that wall came down and immigration started we realized we had been fed a load of BS! Every since I have questioned everything a government source tells me. In retrospect, it may have been for world peace. Had we known what lay behind that wall I have no doubt invasion plans would have been well developed!
 
We have reprinted such a message:
" (CNN)President Joe Biden has formally approved the deployment of 3,000 US troops to Poland, Germany and Romania, the Pentagon announced Wednesday..."

the first reaction, apparently from some woman, is "Right. In America, it's bad with food, and soldiers need to be fed."
 
Won’t be impressing any ladies there cuz if you think the pool can be cold…. :ROFLMAO:
The main thing is that the wallet does not shrink.
A lady friend explained to me that this is the most erotic part of the male body. "But I never got a good one," she concluded sadly.

BTW...What do you suppose the pucker factor is when striking an arc to weld that thing on whether you think it's a dud or not?!
The stories I could tell about such insanity….ah, maybe for a DSC convention in the future.
 
My father told me that he was a kid when his two older brothers brought an English artillery shell and began to open it with an axe, because they had heard something about aluminum parts from which you can cast spoons. From the opened shell, brown smoke went out, which burned a strip of grass near the house for a hundred meters. Then father returned and committed a trial and reprisal, and father got it, even though he had nothing to do with it. It was in 1920, and the projectile was most likely with mustard gas.
Every man is a randomly surviving boy.

P.S. Father - naturally my grandpa. Stupid yandex-translator.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
