Flee! Flee for your lives!

Posted on May 7, 2013 by KG

‘Forget about the UN IPCC’s upcoming AR5 climate change report, their colleagues in New Zealand’s Antarctic Research Institute have gone the full Chicken-Little and are predicting sea level will rise 4cm per year, or a whacking great four metres per century….
…Their study, published in Science, indicates the NASA GISS chief’s claim is possible, but only on paper, and arguably even then only after a long night of weed-smoking…’

    Very O/T:
    I just rang a hardware store to see if they have satin-finish clear varnish. The girl who answered the ‘phone didn’t know what “satin finish” meant! http://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_wacko.gif
    At least she saved me a 200km drive……

            I thought we discussed the other day that you guys all make your own?

            I dunno, I’m just a city-fied latte-sipping corpo-rat type.

              Right now we can’t even find primers,let alone actual ready to fire ammo. :sad:

                I could post you a load of primers, Darin.

                  Might take you up on that later.How about Berdan primers?Are they any easier to find than here?

                  I’ll have a look. I figure if Aussie gun shops import primers, they can just as easily send them in the other direction.

    I don’t see why Forbes wouldn’t send the primers to your local gunshop, especially if it was a reasonably large order.

      Might be a good option,so long as I don’t get hit with a Hazmat shipping fee.The bastards at UPS stuck me for $45 extra on a .25l tub of Belzona epoxy I had shipped in at work :roll:

        It might be worth giving the addy to your gun shop and asking him to contact them.

        Can’t you modify the Nagant cases to take a standard primer?

        • Darin says:

          Not much interested in the Nagant cartidges,most of those are steel cases anyway.Might reload some of the brass ones later though.
          I do have some larger calibers though(.458l and .50),although I may just chuck them up in the turret lathe at work and ream the pockets to fit boxer primers.

      Yes apparently some government entity believes nuclear fission could be possible if part A&B are mixed incorrectly,in the wrong container or while wearing snow shoes :roll:
