Amazing that a small town like Fort Macleod have 2 impressive gun stores. My buddy got contacts for a new barrel and we now see there certainly is no shortage of ammo at those places

My bro in law said the same thing, when I took him to Alberta Hardware and Fulcrum. He liked Alberta hardware better and so do I.
Last year, there were quite a few ammo shortages here, but this year is much better

We like the Alberta hardware better too. Kinda wonder how the area can support both of them.

Rich farmers....... lol
Fulcrum is about a year old, and supported by the Dutch NRC here.
I think Alberta Hardware, has just been around for so long and caters to so many surrounding communities. They also have a new website, it's ok.

That’s a 20 yr old truck man. It’s still living at 500,000 kms. Pretty darn good in my books
Ya, it is pretty good for it's age. But Chevy/GM have been hitting 800 to a mil on a regular basis. And the Cummins is exceeding that into the 1.3 mil range.
I love Ford interiors and the comfort, but they're not worth it.

Who is this Trashy guy..???!!!

And how the hell does anyone leave Costco for only $98
I HATE going to Costco, so when I plan to go there, I start writing down my list 2 days in advance. The day I go there, I don't deviate from my list and I'm in & out with what I need.
If I go with my wife, we stick to my list and end up spending more than we need to. LOL

I wish I could say that but the Checs don’t live as long around here. Pretty much everyone in my area drives Dodges and Fords now. GM used to make a decent product if you didn’t mid swapping out wheel seals and alternators. Not so much anymore.

And around here, everything is Chev. Rarely see a Ford, or the old gen 3 Dodge. A farm truck is a farm truck, no matter what the badge in the front says.
Neighbor has a 2020 LTZ 3500 with 500, 000K and climbing. He's fully deleted, averages 1500K to a tank and has replaced silly sensors

I really don't care what the badge says, but the longevity of a Chev, surpasses a Ford by a long shot
