The biggest factor that nobody has pointed out to my knowledge is that Clint’s ramrod portion has been shortened or removed so he can drop the “loading lever” all the way down without the Ram interfering with the removal or reinsertion of a cylinder.

His stunt gun may have also had the hand and bolt removed or filed down so the cylinder would slide in without issue.

That's what I'm thinking, in addition to the fact that they could continue to take "cuts" or "takes" until it came out right. And to give ol' Clint some credit, he probably got the hang of it pretty fast. (Baldwin would have shot someone)

Well, you have to can it yourself can't buy it like Hawg's pickled possum peckers...we can a lot of meat because if the power goes out, a supply of frozen meat...well don't last long. I especially like canned deer. Elk we can in a stew. Open a jar, pour it in the pot, and SHAZAM! Elk stew. But again, canning really makes venison delicious. Really tenderizes the tough stuff too, like the front quarters.

It is… we had dozens and dozens of half gallon jars of that stuff in the root cellar when I was a kid. As the men were butchering the women were wrapping, freezing, and canning. We chop a couple small onions and add a few cloves of garlic to every jar. Ready to eat toot sweet! Use it for stew, ladle it on your potatoes, noodles or rice. I’ve used the meat in omelettes, you name it. Canned meat is the stuff!

We do this periodically, works best with a young buck or doe… and I only smoke until it hits 130 degrees. It’ll make your hair curly, your teeth pearly, and child bearing a pleasure!

Dry meat last longer! and you can always add water to make it beef again. Why carry all that water, when you can carry pure protein, like the cowboys did! save those jars for pork fat!

True. And I make jerky. But we don't carry jars of stuff around. They are in the pantry. It's for when the grid goes down, the Martians attack, hurricanes, fires, volcanoes, earthquakes, terrible floods! Know what I mean Vern? Or...makes for a fast dinner when you don't really want to cook. :) Most importantly, if there's no electricity you don't have to watch a big freezer of meat thaw out and spoil. !!!!!

But!!! if you run out of electricity, thaw the meat out, put it in tube of salt and start the curing process! I keep lots of salt on hand
 
...and in the middle of this I took my wife out twice, once for steak, (Prime Rib wasn't available that day), at The Hideout, and today for corned beef and cabbage at Murphy's Law Irish Pub...and not ONCE did I have to reload the 1858 like Clint!
Of course, I'd have to be CARRYING it, and it's a wee bit large to CCW.

Best to you and your lovely wife! When you carry a big pistol like that it certainly turns heads! Carry it open with pride!

Fortunately, we have a whole house generator. My 4 freezers won’t thaw.

Well, I have such a generator powered by a Chrysler 360 small block...but...when the gas runs out, the freezers will thaw. Fine for short power outages like we have often, maybe a day or two, sometimes/rarely longer. On the other hand, I have small generators that will run the freezers, and probably quite a bit of gas with two trucks, a Jeep, and four cars, plus the gas cans that I try to keep filled. Only really need the big generator to run the well pump, or do laundry. Otherwise, we like kerosene and candle light, and there is no shortage of trees for the wood stove.

So my question to you would be..."got fuel"???

Oh yeah, I assure you, if a long power outage hits, the canners and dehydrators will be going 24/7, and the curing will begin. !!!! Yes, we got salt.

I hope you're using fuel stabilizer and ethanol free gas, can you even get it in your area? Idiot in chief had the ethanol raised to 19% a few months back and is planning on upping it to 25%. It's been causing all sorts of problems with generators that sit for more than 3 weeks with pump gas in them. If possible get ahold of some 100 low lead aviation gas, it has no ethanol and stores for several years.
