After Skeeter left us I read some of Bart's stories but he just didn't quite come up to his father's skill with the written word IMO.

Hmm, just found out I'm a twit in post #44. I shoot only at my gunclub range about 98 % of the time now and only load five in any handgun to keep the rows in the cartridge boxes even. I suppose that doing that with semi-autos make me a double twit. I don't give one hoot what anyone thinks about...

A long as you are OK with a thumb hole stock Haus Of Arms has a wide selection. I have the walnut version and really like it. It's perfect for a scope IMO. Strange thing is I have an Encore and the standard factory stock works great with a scope. SSK did Marty kind of dirty with the Contender...

Mine is arthritis. I have something like 50% of normal movement in my right elbow and a little more in the left. You DO NOT want to do anything that causes more flex. After getting your breath back you will use it up saying bad words for awhile.

Ruger stated that it couldn't/can't be overloaded using black powder and I have tested that with 4f and round balls. Lot's of white smoke and cracks instead of booms. I wouldn't ever consider loading it with smokeless powder even in cartridges. I bought mine because it was supposed to be the top...

I bought one of the early Savage MK II rifles that came with the then new accu-trigger. It has the long receiver with the recoil lug. After trying one Boyd stock that I didn't care for the way it felt and even after 2 modification still didn't I built my own stock from scratch. Epoxy bedding...

The first thing I noticed was the Dr. Pepper. 😃 I can't see a trigger on the revolver but maybe those old timee eye-tilian cowboys slip hammered their guns. It was a cheesey movie so why should the guns differ from everything else. :rofl:

If you bought a gun for $300 in 2914 you would have to get $394 today just to break even. I used a low number to keep from becoming confused. I am only going to read for a while now as I'm tired of correcting my typing mistakes. My fingers are not wanting to do what my mind is telling them to.

Even with an oxy and a muscle relaxer under my belt I'm not too fuzzy to have missed that. They sure are playing hob with my typing though. My fingers don't want to go where they are aimed although I only made 5 mistakes in that last sentence and my spelling skills are not so hot either.

My wife told me that her father would gather up his house full of kids and go rabbit hunting on Sunday afternoons. With 10 kids he needed all the protein he could get get I suppose. Then he got tularemia and after recovering that ended rabbit hunting. She was about 6 years old when this...

I grew up as a little clod hopper, other wise known as a farm kid. Our farm butted up in a corner where 2 ranchs were divided by a barb wire fence. Their combined acreage was 153 sections so shooting was pretty safe. I might or might not have trespassed over there a couple of times. My dad let...

Thanks for all the well wishes, everyone. They came in to get me up and walk but a short look over and they decided to put it off until Saturday. I suppose the geezer was looking poorly. to them. Dr. checked on me Saturday after walking was done and came back Sunday to tell me I was looking...

The deed was done Friday morning and frankly I don't have any urge to shoot at all at this point in time. The thing is seriously tender and doesn't work well at all. Time will make a change and I have been assured it will do it's job painlessly before very long. Then I can go to the range with...

I will be missing out on it for a few days as I am entering the hospital at 4:30 AM my time to get one wheel replaced. It's been years since I have been in the place but anything to do with firearms was blocked by their internet service then and I don't expect anything has changed as all their...

I have wondered about those but the pictures I have seen showed them to not be a very close imitation of stag but the pictures were tiny. Your picture is larger and makes them look much better. I ordered a pair of Altamont's sold by Heritage for the rough rider. Far from real stag in the picture...

Already did and found some, Scrubbed it out with a bronze brush wrapped with choreboy strands. It's shiny as a new silver dollar now. Keyholing quit but accuracy stayed the same. Lousy. I trued the crown then as it had plenty of ceracoat or whatever their finish is on it. No change at all. The...

I only have one gun with a rail and light. it's a large gun so the light doesn't protrude but I will join in with all the others that say to wipe it down as it can't help picking up some residue. As bright as these little lights are it would have to get pretty nasty to affect the light's...

You are welcome to every one of them. After shooting my oldest grandson's I decided to buy an identical on one for the GG kiddies to shoot. Mine was a completely different gun. It shot patterns and key holes. I measured everything thoroughly, looked at the bore closely, and decided that...

I read some history of our artillery used in the revolutionary war. It was quite a few years ago and I might be a little fuzzy on details so will give a simple condensation. Most of the cannons belonged to one civilian that liked cannons and owned many of them and he offered them and his...

Yes, they do and then eat them, rattlesnakes included. The only difference between the common house cat and it's larger breatren is it's smart enough to let humans provide it a comfortable life. A just well fed housecat will still kill and eat anything that happens by that it considers prey. I...
