Great piece of kit. Leather handles and strap. Fleece lined and with handy zipped pocket for chokes, spares box, etc.

Highly recommended and at that price, a steal.

I carry a trigger kit in my hip pocket cuz you just NEVER know when one a those things is gonna let go.  I mean, over the past 20+ yrs I've replaced one broken spring and I definitely learned my lesson.  Not gonna catch me unprepared, tell ya fer sure.   :fie:

At least you had it the moment you needed it Wonko and didn't leave it at home.

Were you in The Boy Scouts? Their motto "Be prepared ".

Come to think of it, your climate would be so much nicer for having to wear shorts!

Do you have a 'woggle' collection too?

 

[Wonko the Sane]

Well, actually on that occasion I didn't have it but I did have another gun with me.  And, to tell the truth, I usually don't have a trigger kit with me at all.  Just as easy to pack a spare trigger and I never bother going to shoot with only one gun in the car.  Preparedness can take a variety of forms, eh?

I had no idea those things are called woggles and even less of one why I would have a collection.

and here's a song from my Scouting days - words to live by

from Tom Lehrer



You know: of all the songs I've ever sung, that is the one I've had the most requests not to.
I have time for one more here. this one is a little song dedicated to the boy scouts of america. [applause] we seem to have a convention here tonight. the boy scouts of america, those noble litt
Bastions of democracy, and the american legion of tomorrow. their motto is... I would like to state at this time that I am not now and have never been... a member of the boy scouts of america.
Motto is, as you know, be prepared! and that is the name of this song.

Be prepared! that's the boy scout's marching song,
Be prepared! as through life you march along.
Be prepared to hold your liquor pretty well,
Don't write naughty words on walls if you can't spell.

Be prepared! to hide that pack of cigarettes,
Don't make book if you cannot cover bets.
Keep those reefers hidden where you're sure
That they will not be found
And be careful not to smoke them
When the scoutmaster's around
For he only will insist that it be shared.
Be prepared!

Be prepared! that's the boy scouts' solemn creed,
Be prepared! and be clean in word and deed.
Don't solicit for your sister, that's not nice,
Unless you get a good percentage of her price.

Be prepared! and be careful not to do
Your good deeds when there's no one watching you.
If you're looking for adventure of a
New and different kind,
And you come across a girl scout who is
Similarly inclined,
Don't be nervous, don't be flustered, don't be scared.
Be prepared!

I guess there's a whole different type of Boy Scout in The USA?  :sarcastic:

 

[westley]

I hate being prepared so I just bought one of them crappy Japanese things that never breaks down. Sorted ! If I was into, being prepared, I would simply buy another complete gun and still have change !

Dear Mom & Dad,

We are having a great time here at Camp CatchaCough. Our Scoutmaster is making us all write to our parents in case you saw the flood on TV and worried. We are OK. Only 1 of our tents and 2 sleeping bags got washed away.

Luckily, none of us got drowned because we were all up on the mountain looking for Charlie when it happened. Oh yes, please call Charlie's mother and tell her he is OK. He can't write because of the cast. I got to ride in one of the search & rescue jeeps. It was neat. We never would have found him in the dark if it hadn't been for the lightning.

Scoutmaster got mad at Charlie for going on a hike alone without telling anyone. Charlie said he did tell him, but it was during the fire so he probably didn't hear him. Did you know that if you put gas on a fire, the gas could blow up? The wet wood still didn't burn, but one of our tents did. Also, some of our clothes. John is going to look weird until his hair grows back.

We will be home on Saturday if Scoutmaster gets the car fixed. It wasn't his fault about the wreck. The brakes worked OK when we left. Scoutmaster said that a car that old you have to expect something to break down; that's probably why he can't get insurance on it. We think it's a neat car. He doesn't care if we get it dirty, and if it's hot, sometimes he lets us ride on the tailgate. It gets pretty hot with 10 people in a car. He let us take turns riding in the trailer until the highway patrolman stopped and talked to us.

Our Scoutmaster is a neat guy. Don't worry, he is a good driver. In fact, he is teaching Travis how to drive. But he only lets him drive on the mountain roads where there isn't any traffic. All we ever see up there are logging trucks.

This morning all of the guys were diving off the rocks and swimming out in the lake. Scoutmaster wouldn't let me because I can't swim and Charlie was afraid he would sink because of his cast, so he let us take the canoe across the lake. It was great. You can still see some of the trees under the water from the flood. Scoutmaster isn't crabby like some scoutmasters. He didn't even get mad about the life jackets.

He has to spend a lot of time working on the car so we are trying not to cause him any trouble. Guess what? We have all passed our first aid merit badges. When David dove in the lake and cut his arm, we got to see how a tourniquet works. Also Raymond and I threw up. Scoutmaster said it probably was just food poisoning from the leftover chicken.

I have to go now. We are going into town to mail our letters and buy bullets. Don't worry about anything. We are fine.

Love,

Your son

P.S. How long has it been since I had a tetanus shot?

Hello mother, hello father?
