Re: OT--My Redwing Died
I switched from Red Wings to Chippewa boots several years ago. I wear pull-on Chippewa Arroyos everday for work and Chippewa lace-up Loggers for hunting, firewood gathering etc. http://s7d2.scene7.com/is/image/JustinBrands/CBC_29470_R?$CBC_grid$&crop=100,400,2000,3200 http://s7d2.scene7.com/is/i...

Re: OT - LONESOME DOVE
The scene where Big Zwey knifed the fellow on the whisky boat that was eyeballing Elmira. He pulled a bowie an juuged the dude in a flash. The man was dead before he hit the deck.

Re: OT - Mossberg failed me
The Mossberg didn't fail you. Sounds to me like an ammo problem. The slugs are too soft to get much penetration. Try a 44 Mag loaded with some 300gr hard cast wide meplats. I shoot down "widow-makers" like in your picture quite often.

Re: OT-Ever have one of those really bad ideas?
A friend of mine knocked himself out cold as a wedge. He had a 4" bbl S&W .38 special revolver and shot a pine tree with a wadcutter. The slug bounced back and cracked him right in the forehead. Scary, but he has a hard head and was OK after a few minutes.
