Sure enjoyed driving the GTS around this afternoon. Even got some compliments by some guy in a pickup sitting at a stop light.

How many rounds have you put through that thing Joe? Don't take this the wrong way but it sounds like a cheap or defective tube. Usually the barrel gives out before the gas tube

The tube was from PSA, they use the same supplier as 95% of the industry......the barrel better not go out, its a Noveske CHF and chromed to the 249 spec.....I'm expecting 40,000rds from you it.....that tube had around 10k

But your house doesn't carry the guarantee that you will never have to shovel snow again. This one does!

evening all, white stuff is melting everywhere, heaps of drips and running water all day, maybe the winter is finally gooooone.

Put the trickle charger on Steves Indian during the week and started her up, man that thing sounds cool. But I think some wanker back in Oz will require that I get the original quieter exhaust to put it through motor registration, then the one that is on it will go back on. She is so pretty, I have called her "Custard".

Whew. I got back home in time to wash that filthy nasty gross Elky and it is now a pretty clean Elky.

I not only got cheated out of a free mediocre BBQ I had to pay for three! It was the MIL's birthday so I was "allowed" to buy. My wife pays for meals on very very rare occasions. Her own mother's birth day is not one I guess.
Now I am in the middle of swapping the computer case for my home system. There was room for only one of the GeForce GTX 980 video cards. I need two so a giant mother case was needed. I think the HD clone finally worked and the 500 gig SSD should boot.

Thanks! He had told me that his car was going to be in the mag and the shift knob should be as well. I had no idea it was going to make the cover of the article, nor that he mentioned my full name. This should boost interest.
