I am impressed

I recently mounted crossbars on the roof of my car. Without anything mounted on the crossbars, I find the wind noise to be very annoying. An older gentleman told me to wrap something around the front bar to mess up the wind harmonics. I will be danged if the bungee cord didn't take away over half of the noise! Sure beats the $75 they want for a wind deflector. [:)]

Now the Walther really impressed me, below is target at 15 yds 8 shots. Not bad for a short barreled gun.

You lost me. Cross bar's?
I edited it. The crossbars are two bars that mount across the roof. Allowing you to carry stuff like bikes, skies, or in my case a cargo carrier.

I keep that bit of info for future use . I guess I never thought about it as all the blazers I had over the years had them or I added factory ones , so never noticed , have not put them on a car as of yet .
interesting

Not a problem. Yeah, I had them on a Blazer from the factory and never had an issue. Could be the aerodynamics of the car, height of the car, height of the crossbars, or where I mounted them on the car. Whichever it is, it is loud and annoying on the interstate. The wife didn't believe until yesterday. Now this morning I put the bungee around the front bar twice, we took off down the interstate, and I asked her if she noticed a difference in noise. She said, "Yeah, what did you do?" She still doesn't believe me. [:)]

They do that all the time down here in the South.
I've always wondered; how do you pronounce that brand???
"Too-lie" or "Thool"?
Just curious.
My understanding is that it is pronounced TOOLie, unlike the town in Utah Tooele which is pronounced twill uh ....
Hey Capt, you guys sell them GunBroker decals?
Jon
The "swoosh" ones are available in the GunBroker store. I think we are out of the text ones like that. But I will ask when she is going to reorder.
It is pronounced as Capt Fun says Too-lee like Thule elk.
