Hammers V yoke mount with camera thread for monopod shooting stick

I found this shooting yoke that fits on my camera monopod which I'll take on the pronghorn hunt next month. Sometimes the sage brush is a little too high for shooting from a sitting or kneeling position. It cradles my rifle nicely. Well made and only $8.99 delivered via USPS.

Old age is kicking in, and I was getting tired of the extra weight and bulk of the subcompact Glock, that and 357 Sig is nowhere to be found locally. Got a GREAT deal on this slender gal.

I love mine. I'd look at getting the Apex trigger kit for it though. Congrats on the purchase!

Yeah I foolishly sold off a well set up Shield 9 with full Apex kit, i'll probably get another Apex kit down the road, fortunately this pistol has seen a few rounds so the trigger is significantly better than factory new. Talon grips, night sights, and a couple spare mags are first on the list (once I get my Glock accessories sold).

I've named the kiln, R2D2.

Nice!

I might be looking for some custom work in the near future. Has she been throwing long?

This showed up today. Midway had them for $650 and free shipping last week. Couldn't pass it up. Going on an 18" "SPR" type build I'm doing. Larue LT 104 should be here Saturday.

I think you'll be very happy with that. I went with a 3x9 Leupold on my SPR upper. Definitely looking to upgrade to a 6x18 in the future. I have the LaRue mount also. Definitely did it right.

Just under a year but taking classes continuously. I don't think she's at the point of making a set of dishware with uniform perfection. but she's doing a wide variety of creative, unique art pieces. She's specializing in hand building with realistic flowers and animals, scrafitto and painting glazes.

For the dish ware etc they make really nice molds as opposed to turning by hand. My grandmother made them up till the week before she passed. Then just bake glaze/paint and remake
