    I have his number if you don’t - he’s found a niche rebuilding 90’s model Chevy transmissions, but probably has all the tooling to crank out a bunch.

    I think I had him make and send about 10 or 12 out at Christmas a couple of years back. As far as NZ, lol.

    He’s in Elk City, OK - can hook you two up if you need.

    He kinda stumbled on it - now gets cores, goes through them and sells a properly remanufactured unit.

    The best way to improve the look of Freightliners is to step into a time machine and go back 40 years.

    It does look like you do nice work though.

    All that is a bit over my head, but my current layman thinking is higher FPS means the cartridge will have more kick, since presumably the case is charged with more powder.

    I do know that not every gun likes every brand of ammo especially if you have one with tight tolerances, as opposed to a Kalashnikov variant which will eat pretty much any brand of 7.62x39 you can feed it.

    I got to see the new shop. I have to admit a little bit of shop envy there. I'd live in it. Wyoming, I'm not so sure of though. It's been in upper 20's the last few days and I have a real hard time talking myself into going outside.

    I looked into those. I need to do my hood, cab cap and sleeper cap next. Something high enough to leave me room to shoot it wouldn't fit in my shop, and I'm not going to pull the cab and sleeper just to paint the caps. Not sure every step of how I'm going to tackle it exactly, but warm weather is #1.

    Forced induction on the gas heater, as long as it doesn't shut off... Of course I probably could'a went poof with compressor contact sparks if it was my time.
