    Rivet?

    I used to use aluminum airplane rivets that you can get from McMaster Car part # 97484A245 Last time I replaced rivets, I used #10 stainless machine screws with a lock nut and a little 5200 I'll never use a rivet again

    Layering under waders

    5 mil with 1600g of thinsulate are pretty heavy. I have a pair like that. Usually I wear a pair of good wool socks with jeans and a sweat shirt. Wind blocking, hooded fleece pullover on top of that, then a heavy parka that I can take off to regulate my temp. Staying warm enough is not a problem...

    Browning A5 (new) = performance?

    Gene I agree with what you're saying The reason I replaced my A-5s with the Benelli was because I was beating them up so much in the field. I wanted a dipped gun with a synthetic stock to be more durable. After shooting the Benelli for a few years it was stolen along with my truck. This...

    Browning A5 (new) = performance?

    Like Hank said. The internal parts are almost identical to the Benelli. Also, just like my Benelli, it's a lot smoother than my old A-5s.

    3/16 solid rivit source

    McMaster Carr has a good selection of rivets and you can get them in lots of 100 Stainless steel machine screws work well too and are easier to get tight by yourself Seal them with a dab of 5200 I've used both methods and prefer the machine screw method

    Rotisserie Duck(s)

    I use a 2:1 vinegar oil mixture in a spray bottle for most things that I am grilling for a long time or smoking. A couple of sprays every 30 min or so to keep the surface moist really helps to keep even large roasts from drying out
