Ah yes, the Chiliean Isralie. Of course, this will start the old Ziva or Abbey thing all over again.

How about "Lucky Strike, don't strike back". Anyone else ever play that game.

You know, when I lived in northern Florida, I never worried about big ole squeezer snakes. It was those sneaky critters with the white inside of their mouths I kept a look out for. Geesh, at least a rattler "might" make a noise. This fellow did just before I would have stepped on him. http...

Thanks for posting. I was born in 73, but my dad loved old country so I've heard that song a million times growing up. However I never knew what some of the stuff was.. Grape Tru-Aid,..Boat neck shirts, Lucky Strike Green. I know what Lucky Strikes are but what did the Green have to do with it..? L...

Thank you very much. Now I feel really, really old. I'll try to return the favor sometime.

Some of the best fix ups are pretty easy and not that expensive. Wild West Guns has the Happy Trigger, and their Bear Proof Ejector. These slick up the innards pretty good. WWG, and XS have some nice ghost ring rear sights that are considerably more user freindly than the factory sight. You might co...

Not on the street. For a while I kept them in my home defense handgun, but now that the kids are gone, and it's just me and the wife, I'm not too concerned about where everyone is, especially at night. On the plus side, when they were new, I tried a .38 spl round on a jack rabbit. If the hare was an...

Is the General public so stupid that tax money is spent to make a sign telling them to not eat Raccoon doodoo..? They better hurry up with that sign telling them not to eat Opossum doodoo too, or they'll be sued. Yes, they are really that stupid. Just read the newpaper or listen to the news on the ...

Well, they call it "reality" TV. This shows what "really" happens when you do stupid things. These folks have a serious lack of grey matter.

Gotta go with some sorta large bug as well. I was thinking bumble bee.

Many moons ago, just after my discharge, I was pretty well broke. I lived in a really bad neighborhood. I had sold off most of my guns, and needed something for my wife when I was away at work. I took my 20 ga Franchi to a local smith and ask him to cut the barrel down. He seemed pretty surprised, b...

Back when I was stationed at George AFB in California, the Phantom was the bird to fly. Sadly, it's days are gone. This poor old Phantom ended up as a plane on a stick. Then when the base was shut down and turned over to the local city, it was dragged down to the end of the flightline and dumped. I ...

One of my other hobbies used to be HO gauge trains. For a time I had an entire room dedicated to them. But, kids and such got in the way. I still have a small layout in the garage that is suspended on wires from the rafters. I figure once I retire, that will be my "winter" hobbie. Funny th...

I've been privileged to fly aboard several WWII aircraft. Most recently a B-24 and B-17, at air shows. Expensive but worth it. But to tell the truth, the two that were the most interesting we free. While stationed in Spain, I flew aboard a PBY Catalina that had been outfitted to be an aerial firefig...

Oh well, maybe there is a special place of folks like Kevin and Timmy. I'm sure they will get together sooner rather than later.

You know, I find this very hard to believe. I drive many miles a month. And I can tell you that the local police, sheriff and the CHP are spending more time sitting around waiting for speeders. They seem to see it more and more as a revenue generating activity. Along the Pacific Coast Highway, the L...

Heck, you can tell that by the color. Rover's have always had their own paint colors. And they have always made good sense.

Welcome to the fire. Pull up a stump and sit a spell. Spin a yarn, ask or answer a question or two, or just plain jaw a bit.

You're more than likely talking about a close range propsition. Nothing tha's truely capable is gong to be exactly short and light. Now, I'm not sure what the Alaskan regs are, but I'd look at a short barreled 12 ga shotgun, I'd prefer an auto, but if you practice, a pump would do fine. An extended ...

He had wanted to be a Marine since he was 10 or 12 years old, but thought he would have a better shot at being a pilot if he went Air Force. Don't know about that, but it's water under the bridge now. Well, if he wanted to fly fixed wing, he made the right choice. Odds are high in the Corps that he...

Jeepnik, I don't recall seeing, where are you specifically?

.22 shotshells are good medicine for those rattlers. Heard that sound a few times... 'Tis good that they give a warnin'! :P :P Usually when I'm walking about snake country, the first one up the spout is a snake shot. Though I generally have something larger than .22. It's usually either .45 acp or ...

Looks tasty. Did you eat it? 1886. No. Did that once while taking a little training in the military. Maybe a better recipe than just cooked on a stick over an open flame might taste better, but the one I ate tasted bad, I mean really really bad. Years later I saw the crocadile dundee movie and he m...

Some days a smiple little thing like taking a picture get's interesting. I was backing up composing the first picture when I heard a familiar noise.

I was at the ranger's office today and they had a handout on cougars. With all the feel-good language, they made it sound like cougars are man's best friend. But they did get to the part where cougars attack humans, and how to discourage them. The one I hadn't heard was, don't bend over. Then they'...

Well, I can say that all of the attacks I have read of here in California, nice to be at least #2 at something, have bee surprise attacks. In some cases, there has been stalking involved, and in others, it seem the cat was lying in wait along a trail of some sort. They have taken everything from tod...

Looks like a great idea. My brother has done something similar to break one down for carry on a motor cycle. I do have a question, though. What is the advantage of removing the recoil pad on the 410, if it's not the the longest piece anyway? (For that matter, why keep a recoil pad on a 410?) I show...

jeepnik

Good idea!!! What does your AR-7 "like". Mine has always been a bit finicky, and I still haven't discovered what she'll consume reliably. CCI minimags are it's favorite. But mostly I've found my feed problems were magazine related. Tried several of the high cap type and it never fed a ful...

From time to time I have mentioned that I have developed the perfect "Jeep" gun. For many years, a Charter Arms AR-7 was my jeep gun. But after a while, I figured out it was a bit "light" for some uses. I began my search anew. Turned out I had the makings of the perfect jeep gun ...

jeepnik

Pop, that's a darned sweet idea, using a 39 for a "survival" rifle. For years I carried an AR-7 in my jeep, it now rides in my wife's sedan trunk. But I found, and you might as well someday, that the .22 is a bit light for some jobs, and completely wrong for others. I converted my first sh...

I think you're getting a bit beyond the large caliber double here. I'm thinking maybe a LAW, or at least a 40mm gernade.

I've been using the CMore on my GS for several years, and the Ruger has a cheapy BSA mounted. Both work very well. Not sure how the BSA would hold up to serious recoil, hence the use on the Ruger.
