Glad to hear your back. Can't wait to see some pictures!

That's an amazingly selfless act. People that are willing to do something like that are few and far between.

I work for a large insurance restoration construction co. Got a call this a.m. for a garage fire. The home belongs to one of the local PD's K9 officer. Not a real bad fire, everyone was fine and mostly smoke and drywall damage. Fire was started by a plugged in(and brand new :shock: ), but not on, sp...

Wow,

I was complaining about +7 the other day. Once in a while we get well below freezing. Worst I can remember was -13 a couple years ago. Rarely lasts more than a day or two.

Favorite combo;

SOCOM16 & 94S/ 45Colt

2ndovc

Doesn't have anything to do w/ need. If you want it get it. They're just going to get more expensive.

2ndovc

Very cool!

I still have mine somewhere that my Dad and I built. We hollowed out the underside and filled full of glue and #4 shot!

I saw the kits out at Lowes a couple weeks ago. I almost bought one just for kicks!

2ndovc

I sure do miss livin'in the sticks!

Can't stand that Am. Idol stuff. The end of Rock and Roll as far as I can tell.

2ndovc

Mine too!

"Inca Commerative Model"

I like that! My minor in college was Anthropology.

How about "Indiana Jones Special "

Probably my all time favorite woods gun/ cartridge. Knocked off a heck of a lot of woodchucks, coons , possum and strays with my 32-20s. Right now I have four. Two 92 rifles, one's a beater I traded a No4 Enfield for( came in pieces). The other I bought at an auction when I was in college. It's a be...

You really have me wanting to get a canoe. I've been wanting a kayak but been leaning towards a canoe lately. That way if one of the kids or Boss lady wants to go along they can. There was a guy down the street selling one like yours last summer w/ the out rigger and a sail. Didn't have time to stop...

I met up w/ John at last year's Pa finals. Man what a BLAST! Can't wait to shoot another one.

Make sure you have easily adjustable sights. I shot it w/ standard rear buckhorn sights on my rifles. Would have done much better w/ tang sights or an adjustable receiver sight.

2ndovc

Wow,

Sure would be neat to be part of that! Love to be able to go all day and not run across another person!

2ndovc

Wow, I've never been to a range that they won't let you pick up your own brass. If they think I'm gonna leave a pile of 450 Marlin brass ( or anything else) just so they can scrap it they're gonna get an ear full. Our local club leaves a bucket out if you don't want it. I have to admit I've dug thro...

2ndovc

Man that was a Bugs Bunny moment for sure

Next time you better wear a helmut!

Sorry Joe but this one is just plain funny! I know it had to hurt but I sure wish somebody got this one on film!

2ndovc

It's your gun and do what you want but it will be worth more and look better if you leave it as is.

2ndovc

Hardest kicker is my 480 Ruger Rossi 92. Really bangs me up. Doesn't weigh much.

2ndovc

95s have always been my Favorite. That one sure is sharp!

I had a 30s vintage takedown in 30-06. Traded it for a 95 Russian Musket with the bayonette that I still have.

Love to bag one like that!

2ndovc

Sure is a cutie. Great pictures.

We had a two page list of names when we got our Great Dane last Spring. Finally settled on Lucy. Second place was Mercedes.

Go get that dog!

My Dad and Grandfather are/ were Masons. When I asked my dad about it he believed that though a great organization that it was not for me. He knew I'm not a religous guy and that it would be an uncomfortable setting for me and I was most likely was wanting to join just because they were members. As ...

Saw two of those "Rare Italian" Navies go for $900.00 each at an auction last summer!

Guy was all proud of himself. I would have loved to see the look on his face when he found out what they were worth.

2ndovc

Classy stuff!

If it counts.. My favorite is my Marlin LTDIII, 45-70. Short and light and makes a big hole

2ndovc

Good for you!!!

I know for a fact that both of my Grandfathers ( 1902&1910) went packing in the '20s and '30s. And when they were kids rarely went w/o a .22 for small game to add to the pot. When my Dad's father went West in the '20s he ended up on the Border patrol for a few years. Was always armed in those da...

:D :D Thanks for the laugh!! Sixgun, You're not the only one. I did the same thing after replacing a fence charger that blew after it or the fence got hit by lightnig. The replacement I bought was much larger. We had a Standardbred that was Houdini reincarnate! Thought it might slow down her attemts...

Oldest lever is a '73 from 1881. Oldest firearm is an 1842 Harpers Ferry musket.

Newest is a 1895 .450 Marlin that I got for Christmas two years ago.

2ndovc

I've had several. Right now I only have my Marlin LTDIII. There's a couple more I want. Though I do get to babysit 3 trapdoors and an 86 for my Dad while he's off sailing around the Carribbean.

2ndovc

That's how I got my Model 29. My Uncle bought it after the movie came out, though it's got a 8 3/8" barrel. Four and six inchers were really hard to come by. Anyway oneday he pulls out this mahogany case and shows it to me knowing I was really into N frames and 44's and says he's thinking about...

Most Guys don't like to give them up. Seems like when I see a used one they're priced so high that you might be better off buying a new one. I managed to bag an OM SuperBH at a show cheap. Got lucky. It was pretty worn and he didn't know what he had. I've had several 357s but I keep trading them off...

2ndovc

LB. Thanks for the info. I've been using a lot of XTPs. Looks like a good place to start. Tutt. Really like those grips. Where did they come from? Ridgerunner, Did that pm get through? I've got a bunch of reloads that came w/ the pistol. FMJs and lead bullets. Niether work very well and I don't know...

Shameless BTT

But I spent a half hour chasing a squirell around the oak tree in the back yard w my cat sneeze 310 round ball loads. didn't have any reason t kil it but he was just sitting there barking away,

Really enjoying this cheapo single shot!

2ndovc

Thanks guys. Ravenman, love the looks of your 10mm. I've been thinking about having a standard barrel put back in mine but not sure yet. It's such a great shooter as is. The Old Man always told me " If you got a straight shoting pistol, don't mess with it". I've been carying it around with...

Brain damaged this morning. Can't remember for sure but I think my lab and Dane were both fixed around three months. Boxer/ Dane mix was around seven months when I brought her home. Mainly as playmate for my lab that seemed to be lonley alone in the house all day. as far as crates. Depends on how bi...

I was having problems w/ my hand loads sticking in the Martini. I think it wasAA 2015 but I don't remember for sure its not in any of my books and it's an hour drive to get to the only place around that sells reolading components. I did dry Unique first. Had a hard tme opening the action. But the fa...

Two's always better than one!

We have four big dogs in the house right now. One's just visiting( 3 months now)! And that's a hand full. But I wouldn't have it any other way.

Used to belong to a good friend of mine that passed away about a year and a half ago. I was able to buy it from his family when they were selling off his collection. Knew it had been one of his favorites. I'm finally getting around to ordering dies and components to start reloading for it. Any sugge...

I love my 39. One of the most accurate shooting military rifles I've ever had.

2ndovc

Now all yo need is a mast and a sail!

Looks like a nice place to play! I haven't been to HI for abbout 20 years. Bet it's changed a bit!

Very cool, Love the outrigger!

My boat's covered with frost this am

I did the same thing w/ a 308 , .310 round ball and 3 grains of 4064. Fired it in my basement. Bullet made more noise hitting the block of wood than it did going off! Passed through about 1" plywood. I just used standard primers and didn't alter the flash hole. Was planning on making some more ...

2ndovc

you told me to try for the 25-20? I wrote it down somewhere but I can't find my notes.

Forgot to tell you. i did get those front sights, Thanks!

2ndovc

My Grandfather had one of those. I was hoping to find it after he passed away. I'm sure he sold it when they started to appreciate. Did get a bunch of good stuff. But there were a few I'd seen over the years that probably got traded off. There was a nickle plated stag gripped SAA that dissapeared to...

I have the short barrel blued version w/ the white plastic grips. Looks just like the cap guns I used to buy at the amusement park when I was a kid. Probably why I bought it. :) I've fired just about every type of 38spl. through it I could find. Works w/ everthing but has a preference for 148 Gr. Wa...

My 45 Colts both shoot 300 Gr XTPs and 300 Gr. Cast Performance WFNGCs over 22 Gr Winchester 296 extremely well

I was just about to order one of the .44 Mag Pack rifles when they announced the closing of the plant. Would also like to see a return of the 9410. I have one of the early ones but would like to get the Boys each one of their own.

2ndovc

My 94P also likes 240s. This is the only one of my Marlins that won't feed Wide nose flat points so I've been sticking w/ Rem 240 JSPs.

2ndovc

I have one of those little cheapie Cobra .38s . Not a target pistol but it actually works pretty well. Carry it in my front pocket when I'm out walking the dogs around town. Even w/ shorts on it's next to impossible to see. I've been looking at the Bond Arms guns for a while. Seem to be nicely made ...
