How much time has to elapse before a follow-up is no longer considered a "follow-up"?

Just a question here: was the 45 Colt the first cartridge the single action was chambered for??? Everything I've ever read either says or implies that it was. The one I give most credence is John Taffin, who stated in his article "The Colt Single Action Army" on sixguns.com: " The no...

If you like firing 6 inaccurate shots very rapidly, I would get the DA. But if you like firing 6 very accurate shots rapidly enough with an ultra-cool looking gun, I would get the SA.

Nice deer. One of the reasons we've never offerred 35 Rem cartridges is that it is one of those calibers that is hard to improve upon. The original 200gr - 2000 fps combination has been getting it done for a century. +1 Mike! HOWEVER, it would be even nicer to buy it from a wonderful company like y...

45-70 in a Marlin Cowboy. No reason, just because. A good 300gr load @ about 2000fps would handle anything I'd ever go looking for. Some of Garrett's finest would take you to Africa.

+1!

Spire-point bullets are overrated anyway. Sure, they improve trajectory and downrange velocity. But, mechanically speaking, round or flat-nosed bullets offer more reliable terminal performance, especially at the lower velocities found farther downrange. So, why risk losing a hand for the sake of gai...

Close, it's okay to eat poop, but not raccoons.

John, that's wonderful!! I am a recipient of God's amazing grace as well. He has delivered me from alcoholism, and more recently smoking. I've simply seen so much proof of His existence over the last 11 or so years. And now, your wife's victory has further confirmed my faith. Most excellent!!! As fo...

I think it's because most of us were born 100 or so years too late, while most others in our society were born 20 years too soon.

It was 102 here today. With the humidity, the heat index was 115...and there was no breeze at all. In that kind of heat, even wild animals begin to consider the human emotion of self-pity. We're usually good for several days like this per summer, which of course lasts from the end of April to the be...

Jim,

I admire you greatly. Your faith, courage and willingness would move even the great Kilimanjaro. I'm praying for your safety and success.

God Bless you always.

Personally, I use a shotgun for small game and protection. So, the main chore I have for a levergun is big game hunting. But, if its recoil is too much, then it won't get used as much. Therefore, my vote goes to the 336 35 Remington. However, if I needed a levergun to "do it all", I would ...

Is a 38 Special enough for chupacabra? You know, those things have killed thousands of goats in Central America. I've even heard that they occasionally run in packs.

The 338 ME is probably a great cartridge, especially for longer range big game (200+ yards). However, out to 150 yards, it won't do anything the great 35 Remington can't do. A Marlin 336 in 35 Remington loaded with 200 grain Remington Core-Lokts at around 2000 fps is quite possibly the best all-arou...

They also think they need a nice neighborhood where the house prices are high because everyone else wants in to the same small area. They have to have a car that cos...

Even the 70's and 80's were excellent compared to today. Today, things cost at least twice as much as they did even in the late 80's. However, today's salaries are not even close to twice what they were. It's definitely harder to make ends meet today. But, enjoy what we have now 'cause it's only goi...

From the extensive research I've done, there seems to be very little difference in the quality and/or usefulness of the Marlin 1894 and the Winchester 92. Regardless, I like to do business with companies who seem to still care about their customers. That's partly why I like Marlin. They've been maki...
