Ahh, the 30sf. How is that for distances over 100 yards? I was given a military .45 as a sidearm when I was in the service and that thing was total crap. It shot like my drive on the golf course, I aim forward and the guy to my right falls over. Always stayed away from .45's after that, but know there's lots of good ones out there.

I ended up getting a colt trouper mark III or IV (don't recall) .357 mag because I could use .38 special rounds in it (the chopper pilots carried those, so I had access to ammo) and man, THAT was one straight shooter! Fired tracers in it just to watch the trajectory, lol... phenomenal accuracy. Wish i still had it.

 

Printed those contents out too. Thanks bro. I don't want to get caught again without essentials. i might even have one of those leathermen combos. Garage search to commence!

 

wow...I had never seen the snap-on tool set...pretty cool but way over my price rage

As for the leatherman, great idea as well (I own the leatherman charge)...AND if you go to the leatherman website you can buy the additional bit kit for $18.00 it has several of the allen and torx bits used on Harleys...

Check out CruzTools, I carry one of their multitools. Since I run tubeless tires, I also carry some tire plugs and a way to inflate a tire.

Which multi-tool did you select? Lots of choices

 

I carry night goggles, the arlen key and torx needed for the bolts, couple screw drivers, air filter rain sock, a 5/8 combo wrench for checking rear sprocket bolts, zip ties, locktite that's about it.

 

 

thanks Rich

 

Anytime Bob

 

Here's my perspective...lol

DRILL PRESS: A tall upright machine useful for suddenly snatching flat metal bar stock out of your hands so that it smacks you in the chest and flings your beer across the room, denting the freshly-painted project which you had carefully set in the corner where nothing could get to it. WIRE WHEEL: Cleans paint off bolts and then throws them somewhere under the workbench with the speed of light . Also removes fingerprints and hard-earned calluses from fingers in about the time it takes you to say, 'Oh ****' SKIL SAW: A portable cutting tool used to make studs too short. PLIERS: Used to round off bolt heads. Sometimes used in the creation of blood-blisters. BELT SANDER: An electric sanding tool commonly used to convert minor touch-up jobs into major refinishing jobs. HACKSAW: One of a family of cutting tools built on the Ouija board principle... It transforms human energy into a crooked, unpredictable motion, and the more you attempt to influence its course, the more dismal your future becomes. VISE-GRIPS: Generally used after pliers to completely round off bolt heads. If nothing else is available, they can also be used to transfer intense welding heat to the palm of your hand. OXYACETYLENE TORCH: Used almost entirely for lighting various flammable objects in your shop on fire. Also handy for igniting the grease inside the wheel hub out of which you want to remove a bearing race. TABLE SAW: A large stationary power tool commonly used to launch wood projectiles for testing wall integrity. HYDRAULIC FLOOR JACK: Used for lowering an automobile to the ground after you have installed your new brake shoes , trapping the jack handle firmly under the bumper. BAND SAW: A large stationary power saw primarily used by most shops to cut good aluminum sheet into smaller pieces that more easily fit into the trash can after you cut on the inside of the line instead of the outside edge. TWO-TON ENGINE HOIST: A tool for testing the max tensile strength of everything you forgot to disconnect. PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER: Normally used to stab the vacuum seals under lids or for opening old-style paper & tin oil cans and splashing oil on your shirt; can also be used, as the name implies, to strip out Phillips screw heads. STRAIGHT SCREWDRIVER: A tool for opening paint cans. Sometimes used to convert common slotted screws into non-removable screws and butchering your palms. PRY BAR: A tool used to crumple the metal surrounding that clip or bracket you needed to remove in order to replace a 50 cent part. HOSE CUTTER: A tool used to make hoses too short. HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent the object we are trying to hit. It is especially valuable at being able to find the EXACT location of the thumb or index finger of the other hand. UTILITY KNIFE: Used to open and slice through the contents of cardboard cartons delivered to your front door; works particularly well on contents such as seats, vinyl records, liquids in plastic bottles, collector magazines, refund checks, and rubber or plastic parts. Especially useful for slicing work clothes, but only while in use. SON-OF-A-B…TOOL: (A personal favorite!) Any handy tool that you grab and throw across the garage while yelling 'Son of a b….” at the top of your lungs. It is also, most often, the next tool that you will need. Hope you found this informative.
