    Anyone ever used a Browning Auto-5....

    Both the Marine Corps and the Navy used the A-5 during and before the 60s. Tough reliable shotgun. I still bird hunt with a light twelve and a sweet sixteen, as do my sons.

    Mounts for pre 64 model 70 .270

    I would think they would be the same as what Leupold has made for pre 64s for the past few years, I have had several installed by local gun store on my pre 64s. Yours being a pre war though MAY have only been tapped for one hole on the rear, which means another hole and that is a modification...

    Today’s Experience with Gun Show Wackadoos

    Yea, and I think it is also the quality of the show and where it is held. I've been to the San Antonia and Austin shows and do think they have an unsual shair of loonies. Went to a Dallas show a few years back and was a compartively calm and then the Houston show toward the end of the year has...

    Ethics......

    I hunted Caribou in Alaska several years ago with a group of friends. It was a guided hunt and the guide was a local who was a close friend of one of our group. Mid-day one of the hunters shows up at camp with some meat in a sack and a real nice Caribou rack. Everyone sands around admiring...

    Favorite 30-06 rifles

    My vote go for the Browning FN Safari. I also have a Garand and have in the passed owned a pre-64 Mod. 70. The Browning has a three teir barrel which by its design accounts for better accuracy, the quality of these rifles were second to none when they were produced as a matter of fact I think...

    old 1911 - first gun - should sell ?

    Everybody wants what you got what does that tell you? If I were you and was a ONE gun man I'd get this 26 Commercial appriased by someone who knows Colts. Yours is the second year that Colt made the 1911A1, if it is an all orginal gun and is in good condition you gun is worth a few bucks...

    FM hipower?

    I had a HP in .40 cal. I did not like it. I have a HP in 9mm of my 12 pistols it is the best smoothest and most accurant of the lot. Just a superior pistol. I think the HP was made for the 9mm sort of like the 1911 was made for the .45 the round is just in harmoney with the pistol itself.
