    How good is a MAK..???

    Well, mine is simply incredible.... Long story short, it spent nearly 2 years in a leaky cargo trailer going through rain, snow, ice, minus 20 to over 100 -- improperly stored -- full of pellets -- greasy -- neglected.... Last night it came home. I expected disintegrated pellets, locked up...

    That wasn't an easy decision...

    Well, after a month of lurking at Pelletsmoking & Big Poppa's, over at Pelletheads and Meathead's place too, then agonizing back and forth between Mak and Memphis, filling and emptying BP's shopping cart with 1 stars, 2 stars, Selects, Advantages & Pro's, along with various other goodies, I...
