I found a FCD for my .300 Blackout, and I didn't have to pay through the nose for it. I can’t tell you how many rounds I loaded on one of these. But they came in a cardboard box in those days.

TEXAS is on my bucket list...... San Antonio and the alamo perhaps..... If I recall the name correctly, not far from The Alamo is the "Hole In the Horn Saloon"; it's like a saloon and a museum combined. With dozens of stuffed animals and various western paraphernalia and history strewn al...

Scott Tschirhart

Now that's funny!

Scott Tschirhart

It's a little far for me to travel for a gun show. But I will be there in spirit.

Scott Tschirhart

I’m so blessed.

Scott Tschirhart

I mounted one of the heads and that mount decorates my Austin office....and gives the Prius people fits. Nice story, but some of us who drive 60 mpg cars enjoy shooting and take their kids to the plumbing supply shop in town that has the heads of African game on the walls--just to see the heads. Au...

Thanks guys. It looks like my problem is solved. Thanks Buddy!

But I wonder how that screw could back out and get lost without me noticing? This isn't a gun that I have used a lot.

Scott Tschirhart

Great tip! I need to look and see if they make a FCD for the .300 Blackout.

1860 Army grip fits my hand better than any other. I have a Uberti SAA clone with an 1860 grip frame on it and it is a very pleasing handgun.

Scott Tschirhart

I really only wanted a taller front sight. But I won a lot of this work because they donated it in an auction and the proceeds went to a good cause.

Scott Tschirhart

I agree. This old Ruger is a prime example.

I don’t know how many rounds I’ve put through it but shooting it was like eating popcorn....a little bit won’t do! The only issue I ever had with it was that the front sight was just too short. But it would not hurt my feelings if this was my only gun.

"Large" being defined as more than just yourself......

I find church much like this too! But I don't need to walk in lock step with any human.

Scott Tschirhart

Sixgun, I don't know how they solved the timing issues and I am amazed at how they cleaned up the dings and dents. In a call yesterday they told me that they were shooting it at a 200 yard steel man sized target. They say that they are able to hit it all day long. This is a funny gun, it was always ...

Scott Tschirhart

Texas is a whole lot friendlier than New York to be sure.

Scott Tschirhart

That load is a dandy in a Rossi 92.

Scott Tschirhart

I remember the last time they asked the Canadians to turn in their guns again.

Scott Tschirhart

We are going to straighten that trigger a bit and finish the hammer and trigger.

Scott Tschirhart

Today I got a progress report.

Scott Tschirhart

At the CSA in Arkansas this year I sent an old four digit flattop back to Tylergunworks for some work. It was always a good shooter, though the front sight was a bit short and hard to see. I don't know how many thousands of rounds I put through the bore of this old gun, but I wore it a lot and I don...

Scott Tschirhart

I don't think that if they do something that stupid that they would start at my door. I've probably got time to react.

Scott Tschirhart

I don't actually know how this happened, but I am missing a cartridge guide screw on the left side on my .44 Mag Rossi 92.

It hasn't interfered with function, but it should still be there. Can anyone tell me the best place to buy one?

I would like to go back and take back certain words I said. Other than that, I am in total agreement.

New hat rack.

Scott Tschirhart

Like an old mule, sometimes I need to be hit upside the head with a 2x4.

I think that this was a God thing to make me get some things straightened out in my life. So, don't feel bad for me. I feel blessed.

Scott Tschirhart

I suppose it was probably almost 10 years ago, I went through a nasty divorce that really hurt me financially. At the same time I lost my position in a law firm because I would not bend on an ethical issue. I was making pretty good money and had time to travel, but my daddy did not raise me to be a ...

Scott Tschirhart

They sure are pretty. I have been tempted, but I don't hunt with some of the guns I already have and I am thinking hard about paring down a bit more.

Scott Tschirhart

I'm in Texas. I think that the .38/.357 levergun probably makes more sense for me as there really isn't anything in Texas that requires more than that. [If I was considering this from the perspective of a one-gun man]. My most used load is a 158 to 180 grain cast bullet over 5 grains of Unique in a ...

Scott Tschirhart

But I am almost always armed with a .357 revolver. So I do get to shoot a lot of targets of opportunity with it.

I probably could have killed this pig with a .22 but the .357 makes a very impressive entry wound.

Scott Tschirhart

Having shot a lot of critters with both. I think a heavier bigger bullet kills better at a given velocity. For example, a .357 at 900 feet per second is not the same as a .454 at 900 feet per second. Bullet shape and composition matters too. However, a .357 is pretty deadly when you push it hard. Mo...

I still have my bows and arrows. I reckon I could learn to pull the string again.

Scott Tschirhart

Great story. Thank you for sharing.

Scott Tschirhart

I've been told that size doesn't really matter, but I am suspicious that it was more about not hurting my feelings.

I may have to get a lift kit for the Jeep and really big tires!

You will definitely have more fun with the Marlin. And if push comes to shove, it will serve for almost all purposes.

JimT wrote: ↑Mon Jan 11, 2021 8:36 pm I skinned them from the head down.

Same here. But if you want to carry one out, you can cut the hide above the gland and skin back that part to dispose of the gland. Just cut a good sized circle out. That way the rest of the hide is on to protect the meat.

Scott Tschirhart

Please let Paco know that I am alive and well and I miss him.

Scott Tschirhart

As a kid growing up in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, I seldom had as many as 100 rounds of 22 ammo. Usually it was less than 50. Those were the best hunting days of my life. Now folks have thousands and are worried about running out. Weird... This is exactly my point. When I was a kid, we were p...

Scott Tschirhart

Absolutely gorgeous! I wish I knew more about such fine things.

I'm not hurting for components, but I wonder what makes you think that what we have is all we will get?

Scott Tschirhart

That sounds really good.

Great plan! I'm fixing to do exactly the same thing.

Scott Tschirhart

I generally cut the gland out of their back as soon as I got to them, and the smell did not bother me. People who don't do that often have a similar experience to tht which you describe. You don't want to get that stuff on your hands or you will smell it for a week!

Scott Tschirhart

I didn’t own a phone or camera in those days. But here’s a photo of another javelina I killed years later in Sanderson Canyon while hunting with Bill Bagwell.

Pat’s grave outside of D’Hanis Texas. I couldn’t fault him as a partner. He was tough as boot leather and as loyal as an old dog. I miss his company by the fire.

I left that morning with a rifle my lunch and some water. Walking along, I saw blue quail running from bush to bush as I approached. This land looks like it cannot support life, but appearances can be decieving. Whitetails, mule deer, javalina and all manner of wildlife lives here. Water is scarce, ...

Paul,

That is a wonderful example of what we should be doing. I'm glad you shared that video.

I used to live just west of Waco when first started my practice after graduating from Baylor Law School. Now I live in San Antonio.

But I have some great friends there that I exchange communications with on a daily basis.

Scott Tschirhart

The cartridge would certainly do the job and the rifle was handy and reliable.
