    Heron on non-GP mods

    I got my GUS G22 yesterday. It's working flawlessly with the Heron. 500 mode, AW IMR 18490's, standard pin, no over-compression. I got a 650 tube as well, but I haven't had a chance to try it with my Panasonic PF's. Before I modded another pin for the Ant, I did overly compress the spring &...

    Pfft. It only gets -40 or -50F... most years... if the wind doesn't pick up right away. You must have been down between Big Sky & the Park then. I'm not too familiar with the river down that far. I remember you talking about Pinky's, but I seem to remember you saying it was past Hebgen on...

    What did you say lowly human? I'm not cute! I'm ferocious! Next time, this won't be corn meal. It will be your entrails!

    Taking into account for a 30 year old photo, it looks like you were just a bit north of me. The river was never that wide right where I'm at & has some pretty steep banks. That looks closer to the Four Corners area. But still pretty darn close to me. They actually just shut off access to...

    If you could even call it a gap, I'd have to break out the specialty feeler gauges to figure out how small the 'gap' is on mine. Maybe 0.001". Maybe. It's pretty tight. There was a bit of a gap on the top cap when I opened up the envelope, but that was just because the o-ring was dry. After...

    Just picked up #791 from the post office. The o-rings were really dry, especially the one on the top cap. I touched them up with some Keg Lube (both bottom ones, the silicone one that meets the bell & the top cap ring) & I have no gaps worth talking about on mine. I can get the seams to...

    Gotcha. Chris had mentioned #777 & #711, so I wasn't sure. I knew there were more than just the 2. With the exception of a couple of numbers, I'm not too picky. (But if #406 surfaces, I need to have that one!)

    I'm going to pick up the one you sent me in a minute. My contacts are being rather uncooperative today. I may have to get it on the way into work. Did I get #711?

    I live on the Gallatin, but that photo was on the Madison, just a bit downstream from Hebgen. By the bridge that leads up to Wade & Cliff lakes. AFAIK the hills in the background aren't large enough to have names. Just downrange from Hilgard & Echo Peak.

    I ain't tying your flies, if that's what you're getting at. :glare: :D Montana is a horrible, horrible place. No one should ever come here to visit. :)

    Hey! Mine was just delivered a day early! ... Crap. Now I have to put on pants. :glare:

    That's one way to keep the cat toys from getting under the couch :) I lived amongst large deciduous forests before & at times I really miss them. I was called to the mountains though. Once you live near some rather impressive peaks for only a short while, you'll know deep down if you really...

    Turns out those lucky 7's weren't so lucky for you Chris. I've still got my fingers crossed. Sounds like mine might be coming with Slurpies & late night coffee. Or at least they call it coffee.

    The Provarinati Saloon IV - Back Alley

    I doubt I spent much more than that myself. In fact that may be the very roll that I bought. That was years ago & I still have quite a bit of it left. I was just irritated that my cheap silverware tray would slide an inch or so every time I opened the drawer, so I got some way back when. I...

    I use the rubber drawer liners they sell for RV's: http://www.amazon.com/Shelf-Drawer-Liner-GARAGE-Blush/dp/B00D3O6YNC I have 2 squares maybe 4"x4" each. I got gifted some clear sections for my KFL... the ones that haven't broke yet seem to stick really bad every time. It also works nice...

    Thanks, both to you & everyone else. As it turns out, I put the wrong face with the name & it was someone else than I was originally thinking, though not much else was different. He was 36 & from Washington, not the other Jason who is young/mid 20's from Minnesota. I was talking with him...
