Welcome to the Nazi States of America

Had the occasion to travel and saw this sign at the airport.


Totally in shock!  That's right, fellow citizens, turn each other in so the Gestapo can come and haul them away.

Sorry, I have to go throw up now...

Winchester SX4 Trigger Assembly Update

Image
First, you need to read the post immediately before this one to understand why I had to take my Winchester SX4 shotgun apart - all the way apart - specifically the trigger assembly. Second, my bad.  I had neglected to clean the gun after returning from last October's pheasant trip.  I had about one bale of grass seed inside that gun, which in the end, may have kept the #8 pellet from getting out on its own.  Shame. Finally, I did not give up.  I watched four different YouTube videos on how to disassemble and reassemble the trigger group.  Sadly, no one did the SX4, only the previous version, the SX3.  Close enough.  Why did it take 4 videos?  Because no one explained HOW the damn sear goes back in.  Everyone either ASSUMED we all know how OR in two cases, the reassembly process was out of the camera frame.  Aggravating! The key, and this is more for me to remember, was on the fourth video, the author said, "The sear kinda slides down int...

Cleaning Winchester SX3 / SX4 Shotguns

Image
The Winchester SX4 is my Go To shotgun for everything - clays, doves, ducks, geese, pheasants, whatever.  It is an awesome firearm.  The drawback?  There are multiple moving parts and a few of them like to collect carbon.  And this carbon sticks as if it were put on those parts with super glue! Specifically, the magazine tube and the gas piston are the main carbon collectors.  Those parts come out more black than silver & gold. The inner components of an SX3 / SX4 with highlights where carbon will form So what is my trick for cleaning those bits?  I drop the gas piston into my Hornady sonic cleaner.  Inside the cleaner I put in about a cup of Hornady's One Shot Sonic Clean Solution for gun parts, add some DI water, a couple squirts of Dawn liquid dish soap, and then top it off with a dash or two of the citrus version of Dr. Bronner's pure castile liquid soap.  I have found that the citrus Dr. Bronner's is awesome at removing grease and oil....

Ferris IS2000Z Maintenance

Image
You know, there is a lot of good information out there on the 'internets.'  But not everything is there, and not all of it is useful.  I am guilty of some of both of those as well... My Ferris IS 2000Z had an intermittent problem with the blades not wanting to engage.  You could pull the PTO switch and nothing.  Jiggle it a bit or move it and sometimes the blades would come on.  Well, this past Sunday afternoon, it decided not only that it would not come on, but that it would send a signal that the blades WERE on so the mower would not start. I hit the Google to find out what part I should buy.  Amazon was very helpful; not only did they show pictures, but offered technical guidance on what switch to buy.  That bit was easy.  I picked two-day shipping and the part arrived in the mail Tuesday.  $17 and some change.  No worries. So, to change a PTO or blade switch on a Ferris mower, or specifically a Ferris IS 2000Z, you lift up the ...
