These are pretty cool!

Berry Manufacturing makes em. Ordered some up while at the Shot Show.

Appear to be made pretty well. Good steel, good finish work, and they WORK.

Who'da thunk it?

YA can tell a lot about - - -

A person from a picture, like they are a Pepsi drinker and a Marlborough smoker :) ( Ya aught to try to give both of em up :) )
 
You guys are hysterical.

Know whats worse than smoking? Being told your a smoker by everyone else.

I have quit and Chantix makes me one irritable sum biche!:D

I'll stop drinking coffee an pepsi when they turn me into worm food.:D

The air chuck is a nozzle on the bench behind the vise. No mystery vise I promise.

Cheers,

Y'know, if you've just gotta have nicotine--take it from us rednecks and DIP. First off, smokeless tobacco (particularly Nordic snuff--snus) may not be safe, but it has way fewer health risks above and beyond cancer. Second, it's time released! No more tobacco peaks and valleys, just one productive buzz all day long. And third, if you've got an iron stomach, or you use spitless stuff, you can get a fix wherever you are and nobody gives you crap about being a smoker.

Of course, it's a cast-iron B**** to quit, too. I'm nicotine free now, but you oughta see me rip through about a pack of gum and 50 toothpicks a day.
 
Noted.

The day I stick a dip in my mouth is the day my girlfriend runs me head first through a tree chipper.:D:eek:

Well, that's almost charitable. My wife was pretty close to running me through feet-first, so she could smack me in the head right up to the end...
 
YA know - - -

every body I know who has quit smokingand stayed "Quit" quit "Cold Turkey" and never looked back. I did it myself at age 50 and have not smoked anything since, some 15 years now. I had smoked since age 14.

So - - - if a preson REALLLLLY wants to quit anything they do.
 
I Smoke Cigars, and dont really care if anyone likes it or not, I also like a nice cold Coke, and once in awhile some George Dickel, George.

George I'm with you and on occasion I too enjoy a smoking hot cup of coffee (or a glass of wine), a Marlboro, and a front porch to park my ass while I indulge.

As hard as I've tried the granola bar/tofu paste/beansprout smoothie just doesn't seem to have the same affect.

Treat your body like a temple-mine is more like the county fair. (must be so tall to ride. . .:D)

We all turn into compost at some point.

That is all.


PS: Making little bastage T slot cone breech extractors from scratch on a "frankengun" sucks eggs.


PSS: I was going to wait but my patience on such matters isn't so good.

BUYER BEWARE. These cradles and vises are good products but DO NOT under any circumstances rely on the cheese-"male unit" self adhesive velcro tape they stick on the side. I had a rifle peter pan onto the floor because the adhesive let go and the long/heavy barrel made it face plant onto concrete. Needless to say I'll be crowning that bugger again-along with steaming/sanding out the dings in the stock.

It's not a deal breaker IMO as they are quite nice everywhere else. I've contacted the manufacturer (four days ago) and informed them as a professional courtesy. I was told "I'll get this handled" and I've yet to hear anything. I think 96 hours is patient when a 5k rifle takes a face plant.

Ok, back to work!

I started smoking when I was 18 and in the Army. I quit cold turkey from 2+ packs a a day December 26,1982 (I was 40). I'd tried everything available at the time and it was the only thing that worked. Toughest thing I ever did (I was well and truly chemically addicted to nicotine).

No matter what the "program" is, when you take away the patches, pills, hypnosis, and coaching, it all boils down to the same thing. The only way to quit is to never light another one. It's that simple, and that hard, all at once.

Coffee? I love coffee. I drink lots of coffee. I get my coffee, nobody gets hurt.

chew

my grandpa would show up at the barn every morning and put his tin of Copenhagen on the wash table. Maybe that was his way to introduce us to the stuff, got no idea. When the milk tester would show up most of the Copenhagen would be gone by the time he was done. Sooo, one summer Grandpa made up a special tin for him...mixed in some dried cow manure, put a freshened tin down everytime the tester showed up. I don't think he ever knew and I'm pretty darn sure none of us let on.
He also had a bottle (something Rose), tin of Copenhagen, and a pack of Chesterfields hid in just about every barn and shed. That was back in the sixties, he's long since past but I sure do miss those days. Long days, hard work, lots of laughs, few worries.
 
Didnt know how easy it would be-stopped after the 'post dinner' smoke and havent looked back since. a week now-no champix, no gum, coffee-yes, and a diet coke, about once a month.Would love a romeo y julieta in a couple of years
sorry for the OT, and yeah , i will remember not to clamp a rifle on those 'contraptions'
To think I was telling Chad a month ago, about being a fellow smoker...
 
I quit chew a little over 20 years ago, a tin a day and no spitting, very few people knew I chewed. It was hard at the time and to this day I still occasionally dream about a good dip of Cope. I knew if I had a dip today they would plant me with a full fresh roll in the pine box with me as I would never give it up again. The first and only time the circumstances were just right and I took advantage of them.

If you enjoy the nicotine and understand the risks keep on with it if you want.
