I misspoke. Those are the calibers of ammo I found for rifles he had. No idea what the .505 Gibbs was chambered in.
This is one of his bolt guns, and it must have been in something big if he was taking a Cape Buffalo...
The most I've spent on a firearm is $900. Anything that I needed to do as far as hunting, self-defense, or target shooting was accomplished with firearms costing that much or less.
My late father dabbled in the world of fine firearms and I inherited a few examples.
I consider myself blessed...
I did a sight upgrade of my Tisas D10 and took it to the range to see if it was dialed in. One shot at a steel silhouette at 100yds was all the proof I needed that this pistol was capable of great things.
You would think that at my age and experience, that I would realize that shooting a can of soup with a 10mm at only 5yds away would be a bad idea. Nope. Poor Arlo is still licking himself and finding little treats, lol.
I had a great time today shooting this rifle!
I did underestimate the recoil of this black powder beast, and after just a few shots, my shoulder is tender. I have absolutely no use for this thing, but know that I will never part with it.
(my channel is not monetized, so hope is OK to link...
Just got back from the range. Waiting for the videos to upload.
What a great and humbling experience!
I shot a group at 55yds and then some canned goods. The shock and awe of this rifle is just amazing! Will have the YT video edited later tonight.
Before my dad passed, I had no reason to own anything bigger than a .35 Whelen or .30-06 AI. Elk was the biggest thing I would ever shoot and I never got the thrill of shooting something that hurt you. But my father, who hunted dangerous game in Africa, Alaska, and Siberia, had such a need for...
I've done a fair amount of desert exploration in Arizona from the Prescott area to the Yuma area. Seen lots of burro sign, but never one in person. I have seen a feral mule once, and lot's of these guys...
I've never considered the thought of shooting an equine species in self-defense. But...
I did a video review of the Ruger Max 9 that came from the factory with a Crimson Trace red dot. I shot it next to a Glock G19 with a Burris Fastfire III red dot, and my daily carry pistol, a Sig P365, which has no red dot. In slow-fire shooting at 25 yards, both red dot-equipped pistols were...
I work with quite a few millennials and Gen Z types who have grown up indoors on video games and anime. They are completely cut off from reality and the outside world. I have been confronted multiple times as to why I own firearms and why I enjoy them.
My answer remains the same... "Because...
Love mine in .45 colt as well! I use mine for ATV rides and camp security. Great little rifle! I need to do some more load development as well. Too many guns...
How do I tell if it has the original finish or not? The receiver and action looks like normal wear for an 80yr old cared for firearm, but the barrel looks a little too perfect.
I went out to my property to check on stuff and drop off a BPCR turkey steel silhouette target. It was horrible day with lots of wind and rain and a cold front moving in, so wasn't planning on shooting. All I had was my carry pistol; a Sig P365 9mm. But I couldn't resist trying to ring steel...
I think a lot of guys here are not familiar with much of Idaho hunting, which is vastly more difficult to navigate than Midwest hunting. I lived in Iowa for a few years and couldn't believe just how little skill and effort was needed to get a deer out there. Most hunting I saw was within...
I really don't know anything about accurate rifle shooting other than breathing and trigger control. I have a bit of natural talent, but lots of poor habits and ignorance of much of it. I grew up running around the woods with a .22 as a kid, then got into big-game hunting a bit, then joined...
I inherited this 10/22 from my dad and it came with a scope. It also had the most beautiful wood I've seen on a production 10/22...
Love this little Ruger Mark III scoped...
