Gunsmith in the BR area
Posted by MakersMark on 11/2/26 at 2:27 pm
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good gunsmith in the B.R. area?
I picked up a used Springfield 1911 and the thumb safety does not move all the way up in the slide slot, thus preventing the thumb safety from working.

I noticed that there wasn't any piped in music during the BYU / N.D. game.
It was nice!

When I get home and don't plan on leaving again, the keys and sunglasses go onto an LSU plate that one of my kids made in school years ago. Wallet, knife, cc pistol and phone go on my night stand. Change, when I have any goes into a cup in my closet.
re: Does Anyone Else Get Freaked Out By The High Plains And Certain Deserts Here In The U.S.?

I made the drive from Billings to Kalispell, MT. via Glacier national park a couple of weeks ago. The high plains are peaceful to see. Fields in every direction as far as the eye could see. No trees. To me it was very peaceful.
The drive through Glacier on the Road to the sun was awesome. There were some spots I thought for sure my side mirrors were going to hit the mountain. Incredible scenery. I get that the switchbacks may be to much for some drivers.

re: Anyone reviews of Range USA in BR?
Posted by MakersMark on 9/7/26 at 10:22 am to brichard
I shoot there often. I have never felt unsafe there. There is usually a range officer in each the range, not just watching from a security feed. Pricing on range ammo isn't to bad. I would recommend it.

Played SM yesterday afternoon (9/4). The greens were slow, bumpy and the holes themselves look like they have not been moved or cut for weeks. Dead grass around them and rounded out. They were bad enough that the club house should have told us how bad they were.

re: What sleep meds work for you?
Posted by MakersMark on 8/11/26 at 3:19 pm to SlidellCajun
I have a really hard time shutting my brain down when i'm trying to go to sleep. What I have found that works the best is Lunesta and magnesium glycinate about an hour before I try to go to sleep. Bedroom cold, dark with the ceiling fan on high and another desktop fan right next to my head. I can usually get a good nights sleep with that routine. Add sex, and I sleep like the dead.

May God give you peace. I lost a 20 year old son that never had a chance in life. And please understand, I am not comparing at all, losing a loved one to cancer isn't anything I would wish on anyone. Downvoters excluded. There is a Sonic not far from my house. How about the down voters show up, and I can attack just like cancer does. Without warning and blindsided!

re: Cartbag

I have several Ping St. Jude Hoofers. Great golf bags for a great cause. I was recently gifted a Ghost cart bag. I don't know if there is a better cart bag made. Mine is the GT-14 Ronin bag. Thank God I have a cool boss that doesn't play golf. He and his wife won it as a door prize and asked me if I wanted it. Told him I didn't need another golf bag but I would gladly take it. Once I received it, I forgave him for being a dumb arse at a lot of things!

All the time. I alternate between beer, water and water with liquid IV. Light colored hat and shirt. I also have a pair of Desoto cooling sleeves. I was skeptical of those at first, but they work. As they get wet with sweat, they do get cool. I have a Ryobi fan that I attach to the cart via ratchet strap. Park in the shade as much as possible.

Excited and scared shitless at the same time. Like others have said, there is no book and you will make mistakes.
The best advice I can give to any new father is to spend as much time as you can. Time moves fast, and if you miss it, you can never get it back.
