Yes as a matter of fact it is. A local dealer made me an offer too good to pass up.

Why not just lop the spur off?

You're the only person I've heard say THAT! Even in jest! I've never used BP but never had an ignition with Pyrodex. Keep yer powder dry!

My BP hunting days are over, but I continue to enjoy my .44 stainless Ruger Old Army (I'm a sloth at care so stainless is good for me) and recently I picked up a nice Italian SS Armi San Paulo 1858 .44 also in stainless to go to the range with the Ruger. As soon as the chilly weather warms up...

A whole lot of people died from muzzleloader's years ago... without a half dozen shots needed to take them down.

I like THAT! A search warrant at the VICTIM's house?

I never said they were not reliable. In function every one I owned (I admit most are older) has worked flawlessly regardless of ammo I fed them. My issue with the 92X performance was with shoddy initial fitment and even worse support after the fact. In the past, out of the box I'd trust a...

The Miami fairgrounds show has been written off my list of shows. Between entrance fees, paid parking, tolls, gas and stinky atendees, I'm gone :)

Mine is like a blob monster... It's taken over most of my garage.

There's really no correct way, do what feel right. The days of "slap the leather pardner" are long gone.

There comes a point of diminishing returns regarding trigger time. If a one brand naturally shoots better than another I think it's a waste of time and money struggling to shoot something that doesn't suit you. Way back I came to the realization that I shot S&W's better than Ruger revolvers and...

Funny, Uberti makes revolvers in just about every caliber EXCEPT the .41 magnum. If they made one, I'd be a buyer. If they made in in stainless I'd buy two!

There's only one way to put a barrel in a Beretta.

I'm not ordinarily for wanton killing and waste of fish and wildlife but hogs are a VERY different story. I wonder if burying them rather than making them vulture food is more a viable and less stinky solution? It seems as if Florida's problem isn't as big as it is in Texas, and Florida has...

I "owned" two, one (a .40) was a not too well thought out gift which after firing it quite a bit along with my other .40's I gave it back to the donor. The other was a 10mm I bought to play with along with my other steel 10's and after I had shot it enough to determine I preferred my 1911's and...
