My lord!! If it says Marlin on the barrel and is a lever action in 357, its selling at a high price on GB, JM or not.

I think I'll spray paint the wood on my 94c black and ask $1700.00 for it To be honest, I don't think I would sell it for that much money, and its 2018 built. It's too nice to sell.

It's crazy how those black lever guns are selling ....

I would imagine there are perhaps more than several of us MLC members here that also smoke various cheeses. My tools beside the selected cheeses are a Weber kettle, an A-MAZE-N smoke tube, favorite fruit wood pellets (NO briquettes) kept at below 90 degrees (NO fire) for a couple of hours. Photo shows the lid off for the smoke effect, lid stays on for the complete duration.
The hard part is letting the cheeses and smoke age together in the fridge for at least two weeks before serving.
Way beyond good stuff!

Thanks nickel plate.
Is the process to fill the tube with pellets, light one end, both weber vents barely open (what percentage of the vent holes shows as open) with the cheese and pellets at opposite ends of the grill?
Is vent position the key to keeping the pellets smoking and not igniting?

Big green egg with a pellet smoker tube and a tray of ice to act as a heat shield.
I got a small kamado joe that I am going to use as a smoke generator so I can move the heat source out of the egg, but I have not gotten around to getting a piece of flexible vent tubing to make the connection between the two smokers yet.

Thanks, that gave me an idea. I searched for smoke generators and found this:
Smoke Chief Cold Smoke Generator
https://www.amazon.com/Smokehouse-Pr.../dp/B00FPQPWMK

I can add it to one of my existing grills or smokers.

That's about what I paid for my small Kamado Joe!
When I am doing steaks, I setup the small KJ at about 700 degrees direct heat for searing and then I setup the Big Green Egg at 350 with indirect heat for cooking.
Steaks go on the KJ first for searing and then move to the egg for finishing.
Individual temperature probes for the perfect cook on each steak.

Yes.
You are choking the pellets so they don't burn with a flame.
The trick is keeping the temperature down as low as possible.

Do the smoking between 5am and 7am on a cold morning.
Each day, your grill sits in the sun all day and warms up.
It takes all night to cool it back down.
You need to be smoking when it's at it's coolest and generating as little heat as you can.
By smoking early in the morning, you get the smoking done before the sun starts warming up your smoking chamber.

Transversed much of the Mojave and ancillary desert areas on Friday. Had to see a man in NM about a horse Sat morning. 0800 at Kramer's corners it was 40 degrees and absolutely no wind, surprisingly comfortable for the temp. Just a beautiful day. Hope somebody got some shooting in!

ar15 hit all the right notes in post #1014.
Since no charcoal is used (AKA cold smoking), I put the smoke tube down on the charcoal deck, away from the cheese and the hood vent. Winter is the best time to do this but if I want to squeak out some smoked cheese in the spring or early fall I put the tube between two bricks with a tray of ice on top of the bricks to cool the smoke.
The actual hood vent open/close position depends on the degrees indicated on the hood thermometer. My Weber kettle was built before they came standard with a factory installed thermometer so I bought one from "TEL-TRU" and installed it below the single hood vent.
As far as lighting the tube, I use a hand held propane torch to start the flame, let it burn for a full ten minutes then blow it out and let it do it's thing I've never yet experienced a smoke tube re-ignition.
Best cheeses to smoke are of the harder varieties, see photo. Notice that there are two of each type of cheeses on the grille-Christmas gifts to friends!

Yes sir. The 58 by passes it these days. We got off to fuel. Ya gotta kind of watch for it or ya blow by. Locally around here it’s called the corners, four corners, Kramer’s, Kramer’s junction and Kramer’s corners. All the same place, 58 and 395.

Glad to hear you had a good trip. The day before, on Thursday, I was up in the hills above and south of Palmdale, shooting at DMRPC w/ SplitHoof. Two pictures posted day before yesterday of the 39A and the '94SBL from which we clocked some factory .44 Mag 240 grain @ 1670-ishs from 16.5" of barrel.

IMG_2248.jpg


To which I forgot to add a photo of a neat Rossi .22 pump rifle belonging to Split, plus a pic of some of the pistols we were shooting at the sun went down. I'll put those in the next post. Gimme a min.

Between my two-year-old iPhone not sending pics to email (but sending in text just fine) and not being able to easily get pictures transferred to my computer, I'm just flummoxed. Had some success with the two pics above, but once they go to the cloud, I'm out of my league.

bah

Back in the day (I was a child passenger in the 50s) grinding across the Mojave at night, Kramer's Junction was a beacon in the distance, an oasis of sorts.

For you western movie buffs. I'd mentioned our quick trip to NM this last Fri and Sat to look at a horse a few posts back. Its a 12 hour drive to get there in the middle of nowhere and then you turn right. This is their driveway. It's 10 miles of this:



The western movie part? They name their young horses after John Wayne movies. We went to look at McClintock but ended up buying Hatari, a coming 2 yr old blue roan filly.



Except for being muddy (they'd had a foot of snow a few days prior), I couldn't find a fault and I've been looking at young horses for a lot of years. I mean there's no perfect horse, but dang.

He’s gonna start her and put 20-30 rides on her. So we’ll go back in a month and pick her up. Hatari is Lil Sis’s half sister.

My next horse will be an Andalusian or Lipizzaner. They make good trail horses, and I owe one of those to my squaw after raising two kids.

I like to watch and photograph rodeos (mostly high school rodeos in our region). If I tried to get on a horse at my age I would be worried about being in one.

Tom, we behold the political and artistic genius of the amazing calgunner WingDings. It is his artwork.

Dan, I'm getting on in years, too, but I'd still like to ride. Am I crazy?

Don't answer that.

Heck you’re only a couple years older than me. Granted I’ve got quite a bit of time in grade being horseback but still, quien sabe?

For Deuce!



.22 Henry Golden Boy above and Marlin 1895 G (.45-70) below. In between my "belt rifle" a Dan Wesson Specialist in 10mm:



A Springfield in .45acp:



Another Springfield in 9mm:



Finally a Colt Mustang in .380acp:

I need to get to the range. My Buntline is in my grubby little hands now, and I have some hunting loads, as well as some steel target thwacking loads, I need to try out in my 20 and 24" Cowboy 1894s. I'm hoping that the thwack loads will shoot well in the Buntline, so I don't have to worry about changing them.

Excited!!!
