Authorized the credit card charge and it will be the beginning of July before I see the pistol. FWIW, the gal I spoke to told me I just beat the deadline as they are currently NOT taking any more repair work at this time.

Lone Star, you are incorrect. The current backlog for Randall made knives is 4.5 years. Trust me, I know. Have a pair due to be shipped to me in June of 2006. I ordered them in December of 2002. Some dealers charge a smaller premium than others. Those of us into Randalls tend to have a dealer...

BluesBear, that would be great if I had spare $ to do so. Regretably, that is not the case. The other problem would be selling it to a new owner. After all, all the other parts are 20 years old and do have some wear and tear. This pistol has been through ~ 10,000 rounds, give or take a case or...

Update via letter from Colt Oh boy. We had a letter show up Saturday wherein Colt in their infinite wisdow would like to hard chrome the remainder of the pistol to match the new hard chromed frame. Just one slight problem with that. Cost of new frame (which I knew they would not cover due to...

Have a Series 80 with a cracked frame (right by the left side of the dustcover) and followed the gal's instructions to send it back. Seems Colt won't sell new frames even to my FFL holder. Local gun shop got carried away with polishing the frame prior to converting a blued 80 to a nickel plated...

Microtech is another good name in factory knives. Don't be fooled by msrp, they are available for around $100 or so, depending on which model knife you are looking for.

George, where did you get it from? It is awfully similar to one I cut and pasted on a board.

She came here a couple of years ago. Several of the youngest daughter's friends paid $35 + to see her lip synch to her songs. Set lasted a little over an hour. My daughter's friends were not very amused. Pop music has really gone downhill.

Actually the plastic bag inside the pants leg is not an ordinary plastic bag. I have access to some extremely sturdy plastic bags so I don't worry about the media's contents leaking onto the denim. Though that is a good point to bring up any way. It's been fun folks but I am gone.

REMOVED at mod's request.

Heck they have one piece of lab equipment which is valued at ~ $.5 Million and it is typically just shown in the background. Talk about expensive product placement....... hso- Well, 1) I said 1/2M not $5M and 2) this was per a PR piece in Parade magazine a couple of weeks ago. I know that...

Varies. Anything from a Case to a Puma to a AG Russell Sting to a Benchmade 970 to one of several Microtechs, Socom Elite L-UDT Socom MA, Amphibian auto and so forth. Did I mention I like MTs?

Guess I would have to say me too. Model 18, various Model 1s - usually in stag handle with nickel silver fittings , a "fat" white Micarta handled, nickel silver and SS Model14, a stock Model 15 and have another Model 1 and Model 24 freshly ordered. Due date for arrival is June of 2006. I would...

I never was a big fan of Elmer Keith's until he passed on. Then I realized what we had lost. Cooper is not the worst or best writer about guns today but he is definitely his own man with his own ideas of what works and what does not.

Ah, youth, so wasted on the young.

Not yet.

Only when too many of the local in-breds show up at one time. Did start to leave once when about 5 or so Mexicans were taking turns shooting a S&W clone at a 3 liter coke bottle..... from about 6 feet away. Missed it with most of their shots, btw.

American Rifleman.

I would have to go with Clint Eastwood's character in either "Unforgiven" or "Pale Rider". The aforementioned Racquel Welch movie for the distaff gun toter vote.

It would take less muscles to slap him than to frown at him. Just a thought.
