Since this thread has strayed a bit it looks like this might be a good time to ask if anyone can recommend a good gunsmith in Alaska who does custom work on S-12's? I heard Mat-Su Tactical does but I can not confirm or deny... Great topic here, Grizzly vs S-12's.

People in Fairbanks will laugh at a Seattleites look on their face

As far as I know it wouldn't be, unless Hawaii is considered part of the Southwest. I've always thought such references were regarding the lower 48 states.The only reason to use the term "northwest" or "southeast" or whatever, is to differentiate a region from the pack and give a frame of reference. Alaska already has that, being an isolated state, and having their own well deserved pride in their own identity. deadeye is right! Alaska isn't apart of the Northwest.
