No, it says I'm the only one logged. I just signed up the other day, maybe that has something to do with it?
 
No, it just means you are still on the old DNS then. It will take awhile for the DNS changes to trickle down to your local level. Or you can try to flush your dns cache.
 
If anyone is interested in some NIB Camillus era Beckers, I just posted a load in the exchange :D
 
Man, I want a Gemtech barrel and Outback supressor for my 22's. Total cost is gonna be like, $650. $150 for the barrel, $300 for the suppressor, and $200 for the tax stamp.

Damn. Would be cool as hell though.

Well I gave in...After contemplating since it came out I finally ordered a machax (and a bk 14). If I get questioned about it ill just pull out the old "How many coach bags do you have" excuse...

Did you pick up a used one? I was a little concerned about what our would be like this past weekend and it was just fine. The old 1975 Travel-Mate is still going strong.

I got a '94 model pop up. It holds everybody but that is about it. Needs some work.
 
I spent a couple miserable deer camps in a pop-up, and swore off of them. No matter how I lay my feet or head hits the side and wicks water on me. I woke up too many times soaked and cold. Gimme a tent or a hard sided camper.
 
One of my step son's good friends, who I also have known for years, decided to end his life tonight. I found his Twitter page, and he had said earlier that it was nights like tonight I wish I could talk to my mom. His mom jumped out of a moving vehicle a few years ago, and she died three days later. His dad didn't have much to do with him. He had a pretty rough life. Gonna miss that kid. R.I.P.

damn sorry to hear that Dubz, it's always a tragedy to lose someone close to you, much less under these circumstances.

My thoughts, prayers and deepest sympathy goes out for you and his family/friends.
 
Condolences Dubz. I lost a good friend a couple years ago to a similar situation and it can be especially hard to dwell on. All the best.
 
Dude, I'm so sorry. I'm dealing with something similar myself, driving up to Chicago tomorrow for a funeral.
 
I'm headin to Hot Springs, be back tomorrow sometime. I aint decided if I'm taking a laptop, so if not I'll reply to any messages/emails tomorrow or Saturday.
 
Oh decisions decisions... Trying to decide what to ask for for fathers day: A Skystorm pocket sheath for my 14, or an 11 from Tomar's...
 
I know there's a few Beckerheads out there that own Wilderness Systems Tarpons and I wanted to give you a head's up. I own a 2009 model Tarpon 140 - this was the first year of the current model with the Orbix hatches. I absolutely love the boat, but there was always one thing with it that would eventually be a problem - the gasket on the front (oval) hatch was made of foam, not rubber. But it never gave me too much of a problem until I went kayak fishing with my BiL in Jamaica Bay in the beginning of May. It was really choppy out, and the Tarpon, being the total bada$$ that it is, sliced through the waves like its normal self. When we got back to shore, I had a couple of GALLONS of seawater inside the hull, with the likely culprit being that gasket, which appears to have taken a set. I believe they're now shipped out with a rubber gasket. Anyway, I ordered two new gaskets (it looks like there's a space for gaskets both in the hatch base and the hatch cover, so I figured I'd double gasket it). Hopefully that solves the problem. There definitely was no where near enough water in the hull to compromise floatation, but having a wet hull just isn't cool.
