    As I recall the filter addon TSB doesn't cover underwater activities, might want to put that evap sucker filter higher than bar height. :) .

    Looking to buy 30-06

    Go for a neck shot when you can, anything much more than about 100 yards is probably beyond this rifles and rounds capability of an accurate heart shot and any other shot than above is probably a waste of meat and harvest imo. If you ever go out with a professional guide you might want to...

    CoastalDefender's build thread

    Thanks Creek, I noticed on your first picture that it looks like your X came with steel wheels or are those wheel covers? If straight steel what type of hub center covers were on the wheels...have you still got them? .

    Have you looked into extending the evap canister vent control valve breather tube and installing the inline filter as well or do the X's come with those? http://www.thenissanpath.com/viewtopic.php?t=1267 .

    Brewing Camp Coffee...

    The best breakfast coffee I've had is 'cafe de olla' enjoyed with friends and family in Mexico. The grounds are kept wet in a stove kettle, stay in use for months and are added to or subtracted from as needed, but there is always about a 1/2 pot of wet coffee grounds ready to start the next...

    Best camp meal?

    This is a real old thread but I'll bring it back to the top anyway. My all time favorite camping meal is a buckwheat pancake breakfast slathered all over with butter and about a cup of real maple syrup poured over top with some thick fried bacon on the side ...something about the sugar rush in...

    Everything you ever wanted to know about picking a bore size and choke combo; http://www.chuckhawks.com/12gauge.htm Any gun receiver built for 3 1/2" rounds will probably last forever shooting 2 3/4" and 3" shells. .

    Looking for a 12 gauge semi-auto

    The best auto that I ever owned of several was a Beretta A301 in a 12 gauge 3" magnum, light, sleek and trim in comparision to other other auto mags, which got it to shoulder quicker; http://www.berettaweb.com/semi%20auto%20shotgun/A300.htm I bought it new in about 1977 and over the course of...
