So the Cool Kids Have Fun....

Murphy's Law and OldNFO get together to shoot some really great looking hardware. A great tribute for Memorial Day. Anytime these two Gentlemen whip a Firearm out it is always interesting. I need to get back up there!

Me? A simple task that reminds me of the incredible price paid in blood for me to do it. I gave the new ride its first bath and polish. Why does this remind me of the huge sacrifice of our Military? Because. A famous quote: "The Ford Mustang is American as hell. No other Country would have produced it, and its slavish love of it's antiquated rear axle pushed with obscene horsepower proves it." Heh. Much like the 1911 or M1 huh?

So we get to it. 


 



 







I don't wax cars. I polish them with Zaino. Much easier to apply, longer lasting, and without the flaky crap to get stuck everywhere. The right shoulder is for absorbing recoil, not the "Wax on wax off" workout. Of course I can whip out the Porter Cable random orbital buffer, the air chisel, air grinder, or the bondo depending on how bad it gets, but this was a cake walk.

So of course while I'm taking a break someone stops by to comment on my work. 





 
 










 Thanks!

So I need to take the new ride on a road trip soon. Stretch my long gun game out. 














See some friends. I can't wait!
