Looking at this thread I can't help but think that the cold weather is causing cabin fever, or all y'all have too much time on your hands and are really bored...
Carry on, and based on the 1989 Wedster's definition, have a gay time.

Sunday I broke out with a bad case of "Shingles", (There Ain't No Good Case of'em) you know them thangs you roof with. Right now I'm in kind of a "Fowl" mood & not Gay by either definition.
I am still myself enough though to comment there is a distinct difference between the use of Water Table & using "Monoblock" to denote cutoff barrels that are composed of two to four pieces brazed together. That one should not be allowed to come into common use, Plus it has no Gunmaker connection I am aware of. Monoblock by Gunmakers is always used to denote a "One Piece" breech piece into which tubes are inserted to make the barrel set. As my Dad used to say "That's a Horse of Another Color".
