    Is Palmer’s worthwhile?  Taking an old friend to dinner there next week. 

    Palmers is alright

    new Cajun spot: OMG Seafood is a hole in the wall but puts out some damn good food. BYOB with a Twins next door.

    Cody’s. Nicer place, great bar.

    Sean P’s, Aquabrew and Industry around the square. Taproom is excellent bar food. Twin Peaks just opened

    w12 is better than antique, so that is not an even swap.  you'll have to throw in a hand job.

    If W12 is better, and that's what I have to trade, then you'll owe me a hand job coupon sir

    Nowhere near Surly level of collecting, but I just gave my dad my CZ SP-01 and upgraded to a Shadow 2. Last 4 guns have been CZ variants (Dan Wesson Valor, SP-01, SP-01 Tactical, Shadow 2) and other than an STI, I can't think of anything outside the CZ range that I want.

    This guys fucks. CZ and in particular Dan Wesson are very underrated. That’s quite a lime up

     

    Speaking of old firearms I have a Gartman custom 270, WW2 Mauser action, with attached brake.it has to be almost 70 years old. Still with the original 4x scope. Did some research on it, apparently Gartman was quite a skilled barrel maker in the 40s and 50s

    Oh fuck, awesome dude. That is fucking exactly what I'm looking for!. Thank you!

    Little Griddle Pro model. I can barely shut the lid on my Weber. It is plenty big. Those inserts above look like a bad idea. Draining into the grill, blocking all the heat, and a split down the middle to decrease surface area and make a mess. Plus it is not stainless.

  5. The magnetic shock (GM's magnetic ride control a/k/a magneride) on one rear wheel on my Denali went out. Makes for a rough ride because it throws the whole system out of whack.

    Apparently they have to be replaced in pairs, for about $1800. Or replace them all with regular shocks and buy a kit to stop the vehicle from throwing a code. Ouch.

  6. I haven’t shot in months. Yesterday I took off work early, went out to a buddy’s land and shot hundreds of rounds out of my Glock 22 26 30 and 43, my Sig p365 and 229, Dan Wesson 1911, 1873 peacemaker, and M&P. It was a beautiful day to shoot.

    Something like this?  Link

    That would sit on top of your grates.  A griddle insert made by weber is probably out there somewhere but it would likely cost just as much as a Blackstone though.  Hell even the one I linked is still a $130.  You could probably find something similar cheaper though, but still blackstones are always on sale somewhere.

     

    I have this, works like a champ, sits on top of the grates, same size as the Weber
