Same on the Lowes thing. Think mine was HD though. NexGrill. Whoever makes those. It’s a nice grill but it’s got some age on it. I’ve replaced some things but it’s about time to upgrade on the techy side of things. We’re thinking Blackstone. Saw my brother’s collapsible one he uses for BSA camping and it was pretty cool.

I use plain white ones with screw off lids for dog food makes storage easier. Tool buckets, fishing bucket, ect ect. Oh that bucket collection is a thing too. Danged if the company that makes the 6-7 gallon sized ones isn't proud of them. They make great seats to set n work on stuff.
Oh what a drift on grills n stoves. Grill wise I currently have a Webber Q grill and do occasionally cook bacon on it also. Bacon there or oven less messy.
Several Coleman single burners along with 2 and 3 burner the latter was my father's. My single burner multi fuel has seen more JP-4 than anything else with over a year in Iraq in early years. . . Gotta use that fuel from the weekly drain fuel filter for something. Fresh coffee and fried spam was a change from a MRE for all meals.
Oh well back to the thread original thing. Took a drive to CMP range in Talladega, came home with a 1917 and M1 in 308. Two guys there had snagged up the few 1903a3 they had. I went with the intentions of getting a new 1911a1.
Bad on the 1917 it was a drill rifle likely as it has been painted white and shellac soaked before that. Along with a very rough bore. The M1 is likely better looking than when it left Springfield Armoury in 1940's.
Damn I needed another 308 and 30:06

I love the M1's but don't really want to stock another ammo, and find them to be a tad heavy for me. So - eventually adding a Mini 14 to the collection for the approximate feel / style.I use plain white ones with screw off lids for dog food makes storage easier.

Love the M1A!! Very dependable rifle in any of the various forms out now.
Used to drill with the 1903A3. May have gotten smacked upside the head with the stock a time or 3 for being off kilter. I learned. Heavy and I never got to fire one but solid rifles too.

Yesterday when I pulled something out of my pocket, a few bucks tumbled out. I'll freely admit that I think twice about bending over for change, but a definite for folding money. When I bent over, I noticed the bolts under my step rail were bright orange with rust. Here's the kick in the nads... it's an Amazon Special and some bolts were painted back, some were in the white. The ones that were in the white I poked into a cardboard box and gave them a couple coats of black. The already black ones I let be. THOSE are the ones rusted !!! The ones I painted are good to go.
Well you know me, can't let that ride. Crawled underneath with my cordless Dremel and wire wheel, scuffed off all the rust. Sprayed them with black rubberized Rustoleum. Good to go.

My dad has a Mini-14. I'm not the biggest fan, I think I'd rather have another AR-platform rifle.
Not for nothing, CMP is supposed to be releasing fun switch removed M14s later this year. Hopefully they're not too stratospherically priced. @Blade1668 how badly did they bang you for the M1?
BTT:
I didn't do anything to my Jeep today but drive it and run it through the car wash to get the bird shit off.

Drove into town to Harbour Freight. picked up some metric sockets I didn't have . I plan on putting in 1.5in spacers and new shocks up front this weekend. Also a steel bumper.

I like seeing pics of trails that do not have two never ending black lines on the rocks from the tires of 150,000 Jeeps prior to yours making the same run.Actually I went grocery shopping and the gas station.
