If I could only convince the

that we could use better camping stuff, rather than the dog (Wool jackets, nicer tent than we have, etc).... but I guess this complete our dogs camping gear... maybe.. LOL!

This is what I came home to....

I think one might ponder, "Is that really a dog?"

I guess this means you get to go camping?

IF you mean me, I'm not doing anything fun soon, maybe a trip to the beach, that's about it.

Garmins new 500 and 550t.

This is pretty sweet by reading some specs and reviews. Hefty price, but I dig the concept of the camera with geo-tagging.

I'm running the 300 now and will have the 24K West Topo soon. I wonder how well the camera works, would be nice since I take a pic at every geocache we hit. Probably more geared towads geotagging which is cool.

Ya I wonder about camera function. If it was half way decent it would be pretty sweet for simple image with a geo tag. I have all ways been against camera phones do to quality etc, plus I have a decent array of cameras. However I find even my cam phone very useful at times.

As some of you prolly already know they are done for business. Stopped in today, they have everything on sale. Picked up some M1 oil 10% off.

Prices may gone further who knows.

Ebag333 · 04-13-09, 09:17 PM

From what I've heard the prices aren't good yet.

Give it a month or two, and then the prices should really drop.

HA! It's not just me!

retrofive · 04-13-09, 09:50 PM

Ya ya, I know, doubt it will even go that far, guess they are going to just load it all up and liquidate it soon. 10% is still 10%.

TOY350 · 04-13-09, 10:07 PM

Got word that the Garmin 500 will be a 3MP camera built in.

Not that impressive but if you want real pics use a real camera I guess.

Sure.

Regular price * 150% markup * 10% "sale"

(Sucker!

)

For example, Powerbait is a good 50 cents to a dollar higher than Blackbird. Considering how cheap that normally is.....

Drop it off at my house as I'm only a block away from Tyler's.

Of course then Ty may not see it.....

tblume · 04-24-09, 08:09 AM

Ty beat you guys to the punch there; as I am a hippie duck again and he is doing some work up there next week, arrangements have been made...

who knew the PHH pipe was such a hot ticket, maybe I ought to open up a bidding war.........

retrofive · 05-06-09, 04:57 PM

This is total

but thought I'd share. I have a trip coming up and needed an oil change. With limited time lately I opt'd to just drop it off and have someone else do it while I was at work.

John's Auto (by MFR airport) has taken care of several of friends and mines BMW's and has done a good job. Nice guys, etc.

So anyway break down the cost it was $85. 8qrts 0/40 M1 Syn, Filter and top/check fluids.

He is working on a full Mobile1 express service/drive thru.

Really not that interesting, but thought I would try the m1 stuff out.

CJF · 05-08-09, 02:49 PM

Hey Tyler,

I really liked that Walther .22 you had down at Yreka. What model exactly was it? And if I got one, where would I source that laser you had on it?

Thanks for any info,

Curtis

retrofive · 05-09-09, 12:22 AM

the model the is the Walther P22. Comes in quite a few variations of color. The solid black like mine you can find and almost any gun shop in the valley. I bought mine from black bird. And the last place I saw one was Good Guy Guns, as well as Sportsmans Warehouse, and a used at the gun shop out on hwy 62, before the 140 turnoff I believe (small little gun shop).

Found them from $230-399.

The laser came from a P22 replica CO2 pellet gun. It came as a kit (gun, scope, laser, flashlight). I think i bought it at blackbird, but been some time so not sure. The pellet p22 is at my inlaws farm house. Next time I swing out there I can get more details.
