I think you will like it.I have a Coleman/propane i've been using about 12 years or longer.I need to put a O-ring on it I think now.The last time I used it I was getting flashfires from the area where it enters the stove (the line).I've been very happy with it.I have 2 of the old white gas types I'm going to convert to propane.

Hoot i do most of my shopping at wal-mart. Wal-mart dosent carry everythnig bass pro does though they do carry a lot of it. Sometimes their cheaper and sometimes their not. Bass pro will usualy beat wal-mart on prices during a sale and have a bigger selection. You can find higher quality at bass pro to if you can afford the prices. Most items are pretty comparable between the two stores though.
My first stop is always the outlet store. Sometimes you get lucky and find some real deals like a GPS for 150 wal-mart is selling for 200...lol other times they aint got squat. Then it's over to the main store for batteries and other 'needed' items...lol
Now if someones looking for a new boat they got some good deals on 2005 models. Some of them 2500 to 3000 off the reg price. Course you still got to pony up the 10-15000 thats left over...lol

They had a bunch of ocean master saltwater reels at the outlet store. All reconditioned, looked like new and decent prices if a man was looking for some big trolling reels. Did'nt have much in the line of cat rods, usualy don't though they got a whole slew of bass n crappie rods..lol
BUNCH of camo and some BP rifles to. Bows were slim pickings. Pleanty of camo fanny packs to.
Ill probably be going back up after this weekend if i can ever decide about the radios.

I'll be going with the 18 mile radios when I replace mine but I have a pair of the audiovox 5 mile type that just keep going.I wore out the old 2 mile ones that I had first and my Cobra 7 or 8? mile radio is starting to go,the LCD display is about shot although the radio still works but those old Audiovox radios just keep going and going...

My audiovox worked ok though they did'nt have quite the range of my columbias. Thing is the audiovox were 5 mile radios and the columbias were 2 mile radios. I could get the two miles pretty well even through a lot of stuff.
One of my audiovox just all of a sudden started stuttering on receive. You can talk out on it just fine but you can't hear squat. Just a constant 'chuff..chuff..chuff'.
Ill probably go back and get the 18 mile radios with the 5 animal call tones on them. For the price i might even grab up a pair of the LXT 420 just for rough use around the house.

It was working fine when we first setup but about an hour into the hunt it just started cutting out then went to stuttering all the time. Can't hear anything but the stuttering noise. Don't act like a loose speaker wire where you can hear half the time, just makes the noise.
