  1. Recent ohio code says stoves have to be run on 6-3 wire (6 gauge, 3 conductor) with a dual 60 amp breaker. Older stoves used to run 6-2 which you still see, only they don't have an extra ground. Dosen't sound like a big difference until you price it out :). Plug into the box and run the black and red conductor wires to the breaker (it dosen't matter which one) and the white and ground (bare wire) to the grounding terminal in the box (all the other white and bare wires run to this, just screw it down). You should also get a 4 wire outlet to wire the other end to. You can still find the 3 wire stoves out there, but like I said with the absence of the extra ground if you're house was ever to catch fire due to it (odds are incredibly small) the insurance company might not cover it with the 6-2.

  2. I don't think speed is his goal here, I think form is, which is perfect. Practicing good form here will help down the road, also, don't forget to look into picking you're lines around the turns, this helps. I personally love leaning into turns, and no, I don't mean knee dragging, just leaning into it is enough to help.

  3. Yeah, there are just so many people on the road in Columbus, I personally live a little more in the country so traffic usually dosen't bother me as much. I'm not a big fan of city riding although it is a lot quicker on a bike.

  4. Yes, it's time for me to sell my rappy :cry:.

    Up for sale is my 2007 Yamaha Raptor 700 Limited Edition $4300 obo

    Excellent bike, very well taken care of and adult ridden. This ATV is a beast, it has a bigger motor than my current motorcycle, it's a fuel-injected 4-stroke, and has a top speed of just shy of 90 (no, I haven't tested it).

    The 700 raptor has been discribed as the "Cadillac" of 4-wheelers, it's a bit larger, more powerful, more plush of a ride, and a bit more expensive than the competiton. It is the trail riding master, you can pretty much leave it in 3rd and go all day (and yes it has reverse).

    It is bone stock (what, isn't 700 cc's enough power for you?) which means it's incredibly reliable, and has GYTR nerf bars and skid plate.

    So feel free to ask questions, or even better, stop by and take it for a spin. I'm located in Athens, 1.5 hours South of Columbus.

    :bow: Yeah, you know everything fun to do on you're bike is illegal ON the road...

  5. The other thing that sucks about Glock .40's is reloading. They make the tolerances of the barrel slightly larger to make it less prone to jamming, but as a result the casings flare just enough that you shouldn't reload them without getting a "match-grade" barrel.

  6. A guy on another forum had a good point:

    I'm not a big fan of the 27 even though I own one.

    They shoot great, but for carry I have a Goldielocks problem with them.

    Typically when you're picking carry guns you first have to figure out how/where you want to pack. Most folks end up with gun to wear on their belt and then 1 or more smaller hidout guns to pocket carry or some other sort of deep concealment.

    The problem with the 26/27 size guns is that they're too big for a comfortable deep concealment guns. Things like the single stack Kahr PM/MK, J-Frames, Keltecs, etc are FAR superior.

    On the other hand if you're looking for a gun to carry on your belt, the 26/27 are smaller than then need to be to conceal and carry well on the hip. By stepping up to a 19,23,29,30 sized guns you get more capacity, more controlability, longer site radius, bigger caliber etc.

    If you were only going to have 1 carry gun the 27 would be a great way to go, but as soon as you decide to have 2 you'll instantly want one that's bigger and one that's smaller.

    On any given day I could pull the 27 out of the safe and wear it, but if my clothing of the day will permit belt carry, why would I pack the 27 instead of the 29, and if I'm going to pocket carry why would I try to stuff the 27 in there when the Kahr is so much easier to carry and draw?

  7. I was curious if anyone here owns a Glock 27, and if so, do you like shooting it / carrying it?

    I have had my eye on this gun as another carry gun, but the only Glocks I could shoot by me were the 36 (single stack .45) and the 23 (.40 cal just a bit larger though). So how accurate are you with the 27? How is muzzle flip on follow-up shots?

    Secondly, I'm fairly thin and wear tighter fitting clothing, so stuff dosen't conceal on me as well, how well can you hide yours?

    Thanks!

  8. Yeah, you definately need hardener in paint or it scratches wwwaaayyyy to easy and takes forever to dry. You can even mix it with rust-o-lium which works great, but can't spray it unless you have a cup gun (worth the effort). If it was still tacky, you should have never sprayed another coat on it, now it will take forever to dry.
