I felt the same way.... I'd heard about that situation in Australia, but it was so wild to hear Crow actually explain the whole process from a first-person viewpoint. Before that it was like a storybook tale a man would tell his children to scare them into preserving their rights.
dang i missed that story

Whereabouts in Michigan are you passing through? I'd love to hang out with you guys again if possible. It'd be really cool to get some friends together for a range day. That way you can have fun with a variety of pistols, rifles, shotguns, etc.

As a matter of fact, yes. I have a saiga 12 that I quite like. To be honest, it's probably my favorite thing to put rounds downrange with.

I found years ago that imported beer isn't always the same as the one's made in there home country. A prime example is years ago we had a lower limit on abv in the US that was lower than other countries, thus they modified there product to sell in the US. Definitely wasn't as good.

Check those Fosters cans... It's been years since I've seen one but I'm fairly certain it is "bottled" here in the US, on the East coast near NYC as I recall... Might even be brewed here in the US... An old buddy drank it almost exclusively about 30 years ago...

Oil Can Breweries, Fort Worth, TX.
Well, only one thing to do, better drink these up before they see them.

Don'tcha love buying beer in the states? it's cheaper than water!
Treat yourself to a 30 pack of Canadian when you hit Niagra...should only set you back 60 or 70 bucks.

Our beer /liquer prices are outrages. But if there are any country fans on here you may know the song " we have stinger beer" and it is true. Usually 1-3% stronger abv than even the US counterpart.

Hey All its great to read how everyone is taking care of Crow n Susie, It makes me proud to be part of this forum. I know I don't say much on here but I do like the reading material posted here, have learned alot from all of you, Crow if you get a chance before you leave the Tim Smith operation is in Culpeper Va about 1 1/2 hours out of Dc, yes he has gone commercial but might be something you all might like to see. I'm planning a trip up there to see his operation n maybe learn something off him LOL. Enjoy your time in the states n as always be safe n have fun, Best Wishes
