    Just so you know (and I didn't) the Faroe Islands are about halfway between Finland and Iceland. I had to look it up....[:D]

    If you don't mind I wanted to hit you up for some knowledge....and if you do mind, tough, keep it to yourself and answer the dang questions! [:D]

    1. One of the my sales/service appts said that the return in my house is too small, that it is choking the system. Its 14X24 for a 2.5 ton system,. He said I should have a minimum of 20X20 return for a 2.5 ton system with 12 registers. Does that sound legitimate? I've had other HVAC folks out in the past, no one has ever mentioned the return being too small.


    PS, answers will most definitely lead to further questions! [8D]

    please add me for the wife knife giveaway

    Being as I don't have a "wife" that would be a bit tough.
    Are you trying to give yours away?[:D]



    give me the gift card, and knife and we can call it even, but i'm not paying for shipping, you'll have to pick her up[:)]

    [:D][:D][:D]
    You better hope she doesn't watch what you post, or has a real good sense of humour!
    I conclude being married to you would require that![8D]


    we have a different sense of humor, but she understands mine, she knows living with her is like living with peg bundy, so like any other marriage its a compromise

    I'll give you a buzz later tomorrow so we can continue our chat.[;)] BTW, dinner with "the boss" last night was awesome! Had a burrito the size of my head followed by some fried ice cream. Oh...and I washed it all down with a couple Dos Equis. Mmmmmm!

    Sent a couple emails back and fourth with Loko today as well. He's doing just fine (the old fart)!

    Talk to you in under 24 hours![^][:D][8D]

    Still no snuff? Be honest. If so Great. If not then I have one trick for you that I used at first.

    None for me since July.

    Don't miss it one bit any more.

    Can even smell it now and not have the urge. After 43 years of it.

    Marc, how is your mom doing with that dog?????? Does she still have it? you never said if she kept it. I am trying to get my parents to buy a small dog to keep my mom company, while pop is always out hunting or something. They are very active and travel, but always had dogs. Been a few years for them.

    Hello, I did not want to hijack the other thread. I guess you may know something that I do not. I will trust you when you told me to "not waste my time".

    That is pathetic in my opinion.

    Anyway, you are still snuff free I hope.
    If you are then you have it whipped. It has been long enough for your system to clean out.

    Kinda' nice to have a few extra bucks and alot less "mess" ain't it.
    Yesterday I was cleaning my pickup out and while shop vacing the carpet I found an old empty can under the back seat. No one is ever back there, so I was surprised to find it. Anyway, the lid had come off and there was a bunch of dried up snuff in the carpet. The date on the can was from May. I was kinda' proud of myself thinking that I will not have to clean up crap like that again.


    Good job with your quitting, stick with it.

    I had to start closing my eyes to the PSA e-mails and delete them
    the temptation was there but also the recent memories of the butt chewing the wife delivered for my purchase habits the last few months [:0][B)]
    but all the sites promoting sales I plead the 5th

    I'll probably do the same rifle upper in 5.56mm with a KAK flash can. That NB BCG at Aim is $35 cheaper than MAS...might have to pop on one of those.


    That .300 pistol upper is the same as the one I bought, only I got the Aero Precision FDE receiver.

    Hey Shilo,....does that GTLKM rail have keymod slots on the bottom? Kind of late to ask that question, but I didn't think about it when I was talking to that guy at MAS.

    I saw those too. I resisted for two days...ok, maybe one day and some reeeeally long several hours...but then I couldn't help myself.

    I did feel better when I saw they had a 16" SS HBAR barreled upper for $199 with free shipping. So the only other thing I would need is a BCG...which they had on sale...and said they would throw it into the free shipping box with the upper.

    Soooo, I suppose in a purely technical sense of the word...one could kinda, sorta say that I will soon have a new AR. [^]

    My pistol keymod has keymod on the bottom. So yes it should.

    Yeah I am reluctant though...CBC seems to get knocked for screwing up orders (shipped a guy his upper with a 7.62 X 39 barrel instead of a 5.56mm, even though paperwork said 5.56mm) and taking a long time to ship their products. The MAS Defense upper can be had with a better barrel too for a bit less money.

    Well Marc I went ahead and ordered before I was tempted by others. I went with the same 15" keymod rifle upper as you only with the 16" .223 wylde stainless steel spiral fluted with melonite. I have a Fer Franz CRD off a 556 pistol I use dot have that I am going to put on it when I get it.[:D]


    Once I replenish the fund I going to put a Redfield Battlezone 3X9 on it with Burris PEPR base.

    Can't say I blame you for skipping the CBC. The reviews I read certainly turned me off as well. Maybe they're fine now, but I didn't want to take the chance.

    That two tone barrel should look really unique,...assuming I am picturing what you ordered correctly.
