You do realize that next week a big storm will go by and knock out the power for three days.......

;P


Always good to trade what you don't need for something better you want :)
And you can hardly argue with a $22 investment for what you ended up with...

My M70 (in 30-06) is my go-to rifle. My confidence level with it is off the charts. Nice trade (unless that storm blows through next week).

If a storm does blow through, and you have advance warning, fill up the bathtub with cold water.  Get some Coleman lanterns and a Coleman stove at a local flea market (don't forget to buy the fuel at one of the mega-sporting goods stores).  Then roast the javelina you killed with your new rifle. Life is good!

That is a great trade. You will be happy for doing it.
A brand new generator of that size costs 299 at Harbor Freight.
