Welcome to the site, Shub Oak is my old back yard! Grew up in New Gull Manor (across from the maul), I've taken ducks, grouse and deer from where the mall is now.
Went to Lakeland HS.
My folks, Gand Parents, some Aunts and Uncles and Cousins are all permanently located behind the Methodist Church on old Rte 6.
There used to be a slot car place we used to go to a few doors down from the fire house.
It is getting all built up now. This is what I remember, we played in this before it was Buy Rite Barn, the car dealer is there now. Across from Kohls (used to be Caldor, and before that we used to catch frogs there). If you want some history of that area, I have it on my computer.
Our neighborhood was built on what used to be a 300+ acre farm owned by the Arch Diocese. When the caretaker died, they first sold the land for the school (that elementary school was the original Lakeland HS).
Our hang out was Lou's Corner Store (about the only thing left with the same name). We used to drag race on the Bear Mtn Extension at 11 pm when the cops changed shifts.

I also went to George Washington Elementary School, and in Kindergarten was in the Little Red Schoolhouse off Locust Rd (near Oregon Rd). It is now a historic site.
thats me in a nutshell. save them money, get free wood to cut up...
Morning guys.
I was at the gun shop yesterday and the second in command guy there mentioned that the ammo shortage is due to component scarcity. Federal cartridge had put out a video a while back saying they were making all ammo at record levels which is BS as they have laid off many of their workers with less seniority. And a lot of the ammo that is being produced currently is going to the big box retailers who are putting it out at retail only to be gobbled up by people who are turning around to scalp it online. He said he expects the shortage to get worse before it gets better.

Regarding tree stands on public land. We hunt public land primarily. I Always say public land is great as long as you hunt more than 1/4 mile from a road. My primary area was logged 4 years ago and they then sprayed the regen so they could plan pine. The pine seedlings are now 2 years old and about 18” tall. So we’ve got maybe 2-3 more years of “field” hunting before it turns into a great refuge for the deer.
I have a stand up on the hill in a pinch of timber that can see both the back side of the hill as well as down to the road. Had two jackwagons roll up in a side by side on Saturday afternoon and start glassing the hillside with their rifle which was pointed right towards me. I’m waving my blaze orange and they aren’t seeing me about 150 yards away. Finally I let out a couple of loud “wheeooo-wheet!!” whistles and they got the picture and got in their wheeler and drove away. Pissed me off too cause they were driving the wheeler after 2 pm ( you can only drive wheelers in the woods from 11-2 during deer season).

Yes his friends who got laid off.
If Federal cannot get components they cannot make ammo.
Why is that had to believe. Look at all the hospitals and larger companies letting people go due to mandates, don't they want to make money.
But you know it's all because of the "pandemic" that the hospitals are running at capacity
.Oh, interesting enough, the FDA says you aren't "vaxed" if you only had 2 jabs
.
People are gonna need to start shooting some rounds they had for along time. Guessing ammo good for 100 years max in the right conditions. So 100 years from today if they stopped making it there wouldn't be much of a rebellion at that point. I also heard that goex stopped black powder production. Got a # of ff then went back for more all they had was fff and 1# limit needless to say I limited out lol
If you can’t source the raw materials to make the components then you can’t make ammo.
My wife is terribly sick. Been in 7 different hospitals in 2 months multiple times. They don't separate the covid people from the regular ER stuff. People come in covid + they sit next to the guy who needs 7 stitches. Nurses say don't get the vax. Also here in michigan actual hospital stuff is opposite the news. Haven't seen any overcrowded stuff. If a nurse gonna leave 100k a year job plus awesome benefits instead of a vax that says something. I'm not anti vax or pro vax it's a fd deal all the way around. It's your choice how to proceed.Why is that had to believe. Look at all the hospitals and larger companies letting people go due to mandates, don't they want to make money.

I’m not a call the sheriff type of guy but the violation of ATV hours piss me off. My neighbor (the one I’ve had problems with) doesn’t seem to think it applies to him either. This is him 33 minutes out of legal hours.
Wife's been to a few cardiologists and they all say don't get the vax they are back logged for months because of the heart problems (tachycardia) 'they' say don't exist. Don't have to search online to hard to see the side effects.
Finding primers powder and bullets are hard to come by too. I'm on like 10 waiting/call lists in my area for supplies. I'm vacuum sealing everything nowadays.I can source all the components I need for more ammo than I'll shoot for several years.
I heard freeze dried stores the longest
.Sorry your wife isn't doing well, hope she gets better soon.
