@buzzmobile -- A lotsa folks might think it is not a good idea to leave a BP weapon loaded because of the corrosive salts.
But the corrosive salts only get there when the beast is fired, so leaving a BP rifle loaded really is OK.

I love that you know the formula GW. Have a sweet day.
10.46am - Leah (the Mrs) got a day off work today - so we cooked a big breakfast with scrambled eggs/cream/spring onion/cilantro/garlic and extra mature cheddarbaked beans - fried tomatoes - sausages - and baguette bread toasted with butter -
Made it a rock and roll breakfast by playing lots of Chuck Berry - and dancingaround the kitchen with my daughter (she loves
rock and roll music ) - while my son practiced the 3 chords he's just learned on the ukulele -
All in all - we all ate very well - and had lots of fun
Ukulele !
Speak to Subbie of the South
She took classical ukulele in school I was told.
Ya - the house
I bought in West Kalayaan/Subic Bay years ago was made to USA Hurricane/Typhoon spec - and we were glad it was when a category 3 Typhoon ripped thru that part of the world 
around 2011 - loads of fallen trees 
- and the power went out for 12 hours or so - but the house was totally unaffected by it - originally all the homes in that area were for US Naval/Marine officers - sea Captains etc - and they had all the homes on that estate built solid as a rock - to be able to make it thru the worst of the worst weather -
I love it that you love it SG!I love that you know the formula GW. Have a sweet day.

Can Lawmakers Save the Collapsing Florida Home Insurance Market? | Bankrate
Bankrate interviewed experts to learn why the Florida insurance market is in crisis.
Car insurance rate hikes straining budgets for Florida families already facing home insurance crisis
Florida’s insurance crisis is now burning families on both ends. As home insurance rates continue to soar, car insurance rates are also shooting up.
The storm that wrecked Homestead was incredibly rare.
Most folks see Floriduh as being a place that takes occasional breaks from devastating hurricanes just long enough to repair the houses.
That, Pilgrims, is "Wowser Fake News" hyped like mad. The only hurricanes to hit the US this year were in Calihornia and Maine. <-- TINS Zerio for Floriduh.
Here's Anderson Cooper standing in the bottom of a ditch to show the terrible 6" flooding:
And the guy bracing himself against the nonexistent wind... just before some folks in shorts casually walk by in the background behind him:
To give you an idea of just how utterly rare the Homestead hurricane (with pre-storm shitty housing standards in place) was: It was a Category 5 when it hit.
The last time a Category 5 hit was in the year 1900. Yup.
So we are getting ready because we are due for another one sometime about the year 2097.
Just around the corner.
Meanwhile, yesterday I was outside sitting in a folding chair, stripping Christmas tree needles off some branches of a neighbor's discarded tree to make a scented pillow.
I had to move into the shade because my knees were getting sunburned -- I was wearing shorts. It was 78F.

I was wondering how long you could leave them loaded before shooting them. Say I had one loaded up in the coat closet by the front door for say two or three years “just in case”. Would it still fire ok after sitting up for that long? Seems like a fresh pack would be better for some reason…

My father in law gave me a reproduction .44 Navy Colt revolver one Christmas. I have not shot it for many years, but when I did it got a tear down and a soap and water bath before a light oiling to finish. It shoots well but I need caps and balls.
