I have a little mancave with running water to clean my guns in so I don't need to use the kitchen.
Happy New Year to all of you!
Yes your right about the Abuse Part of the MLer befor I got it.Ya know I was just thinking.......I live in the Country and have Well Water, it does turn the Shower (rusty color) after a while and has to be cleaned. So I'll just blame it on the Hard Water and call it a Day.
Happy New Year to you also flounder!
