My new range box
« on: April 18, 2011, 04:23:56 PM »
This is my new range box.  It holds 48 rounds ready for the speedloader and the cleaning tools.  Took me about a month to get it built and fine tuned.

That's downright purty, Bill.

It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys.  I'm hoping to give it a shakedown at Thunder Alley sometime very soon.

gsd doing quality work isn't a matter of tools, by most standards what I have is at best entry-level, and at worst complete crap.  Quality tools just let you do things easier and quicker.  Kind of like how it's possible to hit a target at 300 yards with plain iron sites, but it's a lot faster and easier to use optics.

That is great looking.  I can't do anything that well. 

Good job.

Very nice!  That box should just about double the value of the firearm it contains!
