What's the secrect?

[DalesCarpentry]

I just received my new synthetic stock set from Kenbev. The problem is I can not remove the butt plate. I have pulled pryed twisted worked it back and forth and it still won't come out. What's the secrect. 

[gould]

There should be just the 2 screws holding it on.

[DalesCarpentry]

Stupid me the screws were down inside the rubber and I could not see them. Please disreguard this post. 

[DalesCarpentry]

Boy I feel like a fool.

Don't feel bad man, those little holes in the synthetic stocks are hard to work with and can be a pain sometimes.

One day I asked, "how do you clean inside a 9mm die when case lube and gunk builds up"

"with a 9mm bore brush"

Felt pretty stupid that day.

You need to do like i do when boys come over to see my 17 year old , i take them to the reloading room and put it point blank to them .

( I have a gun and a shovel and you will not be missed )

Good one Stimpy.I really do believe in that no joking aside. I may catch some flack on this fourm but that little girl is the most important thing in my life. I see these sick people out there rapeing and killing little girls like mine. God forbid anything like that would happen to my daughter and they caught the person I think I would lose it and I would be perched atop a building blocks away and body armor would do him no good.Because it would be a head shot and I don't miss much. I will go to prison for the rest of my life but I would have satasfaction.

I tell my daughter that if someone is bothering her, to take a picture of them with her phone and when they ask why, I tell her to tell them "So my daddy doesn't shoot the wrong person!"  So far it has been very effective.

[J. Plate]

Sounds like this fits......   You guys should get a kick out of this.   My daughter is only 2, but I know it's coming.

Dale I have two daughters.  The oldest's boy freind of about 6 years, was met at the front door with a 20" chain saw(running)and me saying to him , "COME ON IN HERE BOY HA HA HA". My wife and daughter didnt think it was too funnybut I did hear my wife tell him "Just to let you know, my husband DOES KNOW HOW TO USE IT, think about that son". My dauhter is now finishing up at a state university, still with the same boy and thinking of getting married. He is still very carefulle around me to this day.
 My youngest daughter's boy friend was meet at the door by wife but I was in my chair and happened to cleaning The uglest, meanest looking shot gun that I own. When he came in, I said "SIT DOWN BOY. DO YOU KNOW ANY THING ABOUT GUNS?".
 His reply was "Not a whole lot but would you PLEASE point that in a differant direction. I put the shot gun up and as I was walking away I heard my wife say again,"Just to let you know, my husband does know how to use it , think about that son. We dont see much of him around here Now . Says he always working or something like that. 
  good luck

No daughters but hopefully I'll have raised my son right & when he is ready to date 10 now)he can help you fellas clean them there guns & cut some wood with the chain saws before the date or instead of the date then you can go to the range together & bond

I have a fifteen year old neice who is in the drill team at her 5A highschool..... I'm known in those circles as "the gun toting uncle"... when I arrive at my brother's house, her "guy friends" scatter..... it's great!  of course it doesnt hurt that I'm 6'2 and 300+ lbs...

[Hunternz]

I have enjoyed this thread very much having three daughters, the times my wife has told me to put my rifle under the couch when I been cleaning it in the lounge room when the door bell has let us know that visitors have arrived.Or my eldest daughter trying to explain to her friends this strange camo covered man coming up the path with his rifle or shotgun with dead animals to butcher is actually her Dad.
Regards Howard,

It's nice to know that there are other Fathers out there like me! My daughter was born on my birthday, 18 yrs ago. So, as you can imagine, She IS very special to me. From day one, I've been known to tell her "friends" that I have approximently 23 guns . This little beauty right here,doesn't shoot to far. But she will cover a 10 foot wide area at about 15 feet. And this one right here, she's my favorite. She's REAL accurate out to about 400 yds. Holds a one inch group at 300yds. So tell me son, do you run Track?

[hunter63]

J.Plate, my rules were similar, but not nearly as well put.
Do mind if I use these?


Also doesn't hurt to have a daughter, that is proficient in her own right in shooting, tomahawk and knife throwing.

Comments in front of Mr. Wonderful, like "dad I really wish you wouldn't keep snealking the .357's into my .38 when were at the range with out telling me", does wonders.

I have a 13yr old step daughter that is all about dating,her most recent came to the old homestead here recently with his mother to discuss a future movie date,wife was going to attend with daughter and mother would be going along also.Now this kid doesn't now his nationality,he was dressed totally gangster,so amid the tee-heeing and gossip I decided to shake up junior.I showed him all my hunting stuff,wasn't interested,showed pictures off my trail cams,again not interested showed him my firearms,finally got a response.After showing him my toys little thug boy said,YOU DON'T OWN A GAT WHATS UP WITH THAT YO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well that was enough so I said no but I own a Hank.What is a hank?so I took homey out side and he looked so excited to see what this new terminology meant,we stopped out by the gate to our fenced in yard,I then asked scooter if he wanted to see my hank,the response was a very excited yeah yo what is it.I yelled Hey Hank! and from behind our shed running at a good speed charge comes my 175lb purebred rottie.Hank stops just short of the fence with full radar lock on this kid,who was just about to pass out due to shock.I then calmly tell junior that this dog has a real good memory and that he also thinks my step daughter is his sole provider of dog bones so if you decide to hurt her in any way he will rip you limb from limb and that I wouldn't be able to save you no matter what.So far for the past year old junior has turned out to be a good kid,very repectful,and he has shown great interest in hunting and country music,but he will not venture outside our house without me and my stepdaughter  .

I was hopeing you would say you had to feed him to the dog.

I have a few old memories of when I was a young pup, and comming to pick up a young lady for the movies, as I'm sure some of you dads have... I happened to hear this song the other day by rodney adkins the other day that brought back a few memories.. The song's called "cleaning this gun".. 

I can honestly say that also being a step dad I'd like to put the fear of god into a young buck that decides to come calling one day to my house, so he knows just how much I care about him taking my step daughter out and not respecting her, and treating her like a lady.. She's 17 and hasn't started dating as of yet(that we know of), but she's still my "baby girl", and I'd put a new world of hurt on any boy that decided to cause her trouble..

Anyway sorry about the rambling.. Check out the song and for the record, I was taught to be dressed properly to call on a young lady in my day(thanks mom ), and still watched a dad or 4 clean their 30-30 as I waited for her..

Being only 24, those days aren't that far behind me....

Even if my date was ready when I arrived I always insisted on going in to meet her parents and most especially her father.  Rarely was I ever confronted by fathers cleaning guns as I entered the house.  I usually offered to help .... typically earned a few brownie points with Pop and gave them the message my intentions were honorable by the fact I wasn't intimidated. On more than one occasion I'd end up with a jilted date because I would sit and talk hunting and fishing with their dad.  Usually dawned on them later when they received less resistance when I wanted to take them on longer dates, like the 1 1/2 hr drive to Houston.

Came in particularly handy when "The movie ran late, daddy...."  Prolly ought notta said that here, but we were all young once, right? 

One particular girl I dated, her dad wouldnt let her go to her sr. prom (year after i graduated) unless it was with me. At the time, I was dating who would eventually be my wife(who was surprisingly ok with it) so it was awkward, but it turned out fun.

Deerslayer,

You and Hank nearly cost me an LCD monitor with that story. I was laughing so hard I almost spewed a mouthful of coke on the screen.

Thanks for that.

They grow up way too fast, my daughter is 30-something already. Where's the time go?

[deerslayer79]
