    We have focused on smoking and canning meat this year. We lose power for a week or
    so at a time in the winter or our electric provider shuts the power off
    every time it gets windy. Meat doesn’t goo bad on the shelf!

    I was on a budget so I sourced my parts from Palmetto State Armory and assembled one myself. Then did one for each family member. Never have had any complaints about quality or function.

    I second this. It is difficult to know what accessories you want in the beginning so you buy them all. Then you end up with a 14 pound AR. Then you start stripping it back . It always comes back to the basics. Fortunately or should I say hopefully 99.9 percent of us will never have to use them outside of the range. But ALWAYS be ready.
