You know, linseed oil, renaissance wax, ballistol. It’s rather common …
:D :D


We don't call it hand cream in heterosexual alpha-male circles. In the States its sold as udder balm, bag balm, and tiger balm. Its just a petroleum jelly to fill the cracks in your hands so they don't continue to bleed while working. It also works on cow teats to keep them from getting chapped.
 
A mate just sent me this: You may have heard on the news about a Southern California man who was put under 72-hour psychiatric observation when it was found he owned 100 guns and allegedly had 100,000 rounds of ammunition stored in his home.
The house also featured a secret escape tunnel.
By Southern California standards, someone owning 100,000 rounds is considered "mentally unstable.
BUT… In Michigan, he'd be called "the last white guy still living in Detroit."
In Arizona, he'd be called "an avid gun collector. In Arkansas, he'd be called "a novice gun collector."
In Utah, he'd be called "moderately well prepared," but they'd probably reserve judgment until they made sure that he had a corresponding quantity of stored food.
In Kansas, he'd be "A guy down the road you would want to have for a friend."
In Montana, he'd be called "The neighborhood 'Go-To' guy."
In Idaho, he'd be called "a likely gubernatorial candidate."
In Georgia, he'd be called "an eligible bachelor."
In North Carolina, Virginia, WV, Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky, South Carolina and Minnesota he would be called "a deer hunting buddy." AND,OF COURSE,
In Texas, he'd just be "a guy who's a little short on Ammo."
Truth!

Not sure this is the right thread but here goes. I had a fairly rough day today. Got back home with my wife and she said: “ it’s been a hard day for you, why don’t you pour yourself a drink, go to your room, and play with your guns.”

I’m 40 years old, got sent to my room and that was the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me.

There you have your answer @Von Gruff, hand cream is cow teat balm

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 .
