[tjmurphy]

Wish that I could call it "pay it forward" but I'm so deep in the hole from the generousity of other AAPK members towards me, that I may never dig my way out. And, yes, AAPK does indeed ROCK!

[jerryd6818]

T.J. you're one smart feller. That is the perfect gift for Scott and his intrepid team of adventuresome Yahoos.

Scott, I do so admire what you're doing with those young'uns.

That is an amazing bomb TJ! You sure stuffed the powder in that one. Great act of kindness and generosity.
Scott, I can hardly wait to see the pictures of those young adventurers hard at work with those knives. Keep up the great work and those "mission" outings!

Congrats Scott & Tom

[tjmurphy]

Not the altimate bomb, Wayne.

I received this package of goodies from Scott this morning. Scott had gone out pickin' on Friday and sent me a note asking if I would be interested in some ZIPPO's he had found in his travels. Of course, I said yes. I received the package today with the lighters and MORE. Since I knew it was coming we'll consider this a training-bombing, but it sure knocked me out of my socks. I got the lighters pretty well cleaned up and got them working. The rest of the stuff is so much icing on the cake that my A1C will probably be in double digits next Dr.'s appt. Thanks so much Scott. That's the only way I know to recognize this kind jesture.

[jmh58]

KUDOS ALL!! John

[TripleF]

Glade you likey Tom! Very impressive how you brought them lighters back to life!

It is I who is honored to know you fellas.....

I've been blown plumb out of the water! Twice in one week!

First from Orvet! He sent me a great Copenhagen sticker, AND one of those nifty dip can openers that used to hang in a tobacco shop. Dale I'm deeply grateful.

Second, arrived today. Old Hunter offered to send me a bottle of the barbecue sauce his good friend makes. I eagerly accepted. Today the box arrived! But sauce wasn't the only thing in it. In addition to a very kind letter he sent: two good little Imperials and a Hammer Brand tooth pick that my three boys scarfed up. Also, a wonderful 2 dot Case slimline trapper, AND an amazing leather butt cuff. I'm speechless. Really. Wow! Thank you so much Bruce.

[AREMINGTONSEDGE]

Awesome! Way to go OH! Congrats Colonel! They do say it's better to give than receive! Way to go boys!

[tjmurphy]

Way to go fellerz Some pretty nice stuff being passed around this week But what the heck is a "Butt Cuff"??

[TripleF]

Knice work Bruce!! Very Knice!

[jerryd6818]

T.J. I asked Google that same question and Google told me it goes on the butt stock of a long gun and usually has ammunition loops. I'm guessing that one goes on the end of the butt stock, has no ammo loops and maybe acts as an auxiliary recoil pad.

This is an example I found online.

[Colonel26]

Lol. This one is adjustable and has a soft butt pad. You put it on guns that don't have a pad for recoil control or to add length to a short stock.

[jerryd6818]

Hey! I was very, very close.

[tjmurphy]

OK, makes sense now
