We were only shooting handguns so my 200ft range wouldn't be much help

Maybe the scope is on backwards?

If it was the one that looked just about stock all the way down to the mud scrapers behind the front tires my dad and I were ogling just before he pulled. We used to have an H and a Super M, 43s I believe. Cut a lot of wood with the M. I took my truck down and threw a couple For Sale signs in the windows and walked around for a few hours. Found a money order someone dropped for $785. I left my name and number at the tents and luckily for the dude in Logan who dropped it he was able to make his house payment. Lot of nice old equipment. Did you make it back to where they were running the old Bantam Shovel?

Left there went up to Buckeye Outdoors to pick up some different powder to try in a Sako TRG in 260 that I can't get to shoot good enough to use for long range matches, then headed south to Perry and checked up on Motodirtlover and Indypup. Alansz400 was hanging out in the parking lot and Moto and Indy showed up shortly thereafter. Nice day for a ride and wished I could have been there with them!

Are they selling firearms again? Last I heard they were in pretty deep along with assassins in massillon.

I checked with my local guy that also makes wine. He's already stocked up.
In the event you haven't tried it yet, this guy puts a half stick of cinnamon in the bottle before he corks it. It's like getting drunk on apple pie.

Assassins bait and tackle.

I don't know of anyone coming down from there, I just figured I'm 2.5 hours from Erie and the guys on the East side of Cleveland are about an hour closer. If you needed a lift one of us with a truck or trailer could pick you and the bike up. I wanted to make sure you weren't being left stranded after returning the car in Erie.

Are we talking about the same Erie? By my math, Erie is in NW PA and 20 miles farther north puts you in Lake Erie.

How about a bike relay? Turra is always looking for an excuse to come your way. What bike is it?

Only made it to the pull this year and glad for it as we spent too much time there for me in years past as our 4H club is the one that runs the hamburger stand and my son's first word was tractor. I'm sure the H you saw was his, it is a '39 (first year production) dual fuel and about as stock as he could get it. He has just turned 18 and needs to slow down and get his body work a little better but has come a long way mechanically. It wasn't locked up when he got it but hadn't been run for years and had been sitting out long enough that water got into the fuel tank and rusted a hole through (and crankcase, gearbox, etc). He had no mechanical experience or any idea how an engine works when he started but with my helpful advice that all it needs is compression, spark, air and fuel (and a lot of help from the old timers on the internet) he got it going and has been picking up pieces and building it up ever since.

Nice. I'd love to get my hands on an old H or M and restore it. I'd like an old horizontal cylinder John Deere too. I have nowhere to work on them or money to spend on them either, so I'll farm vicariously through those who do! Tell him he did a darn good job. It looks great.

I might know where there's an old Oliver if he's interested.

Just got home from John Hinderer Honda, Kyle and I went there to look at the new Honda 250L the salesman said they sold one last week and the other one sold a hour before we got there.

He did give a price of $5,103.06 out the door. That sounds pretty good with tax and the $250.00 doc. free.

lets see

MSRP 4499.00
+ 5.5% state sales tax 247.45
+ document fee 250.00
+ 1.5% county sales tax 67.49
= 5063.94

so where'd the other 42.12 go?
