Perfect!

It must be some of that Yankee blood, because if something can be saved and used, I have a hard time throwing it away. No, this is not "OT". I'm getting there... I was reloading a couple weeks ago, and ran out of .38 Special brass. Yep, reloading for the lever gun - some more for my son an...

Yep, I sometimes "double tap" the "submit" button (must be a force of habit!

You need to run for president; why can't THEY figure this stuff out? Unless McCain picks someone like Huckabee or Paul, maybe I'll write in "Ysabel Kid" :shock: Not to be presumptuous, but given the current choices, I do think I'd made a better choice! I'd never get elected though. The me...

Hobie - Your strategy on buying these when you find them at the old prices is a sound one. As you probably know, all modern plastics are derived from hydrocarbons. Given that oil is at a record and showing no signs of letting off, the price of everything made from plastics will continue to increase....

Good news indeed! I just wish SC and GA recognized one anothers' carry permits. Hopefully someday soon!!!

Congrats!

PROFILES OF VALOR: USMC CPL. DOLLARD In June 2007, U.S. Marine Corps Corporal Ian Dollard was on patrol with his team in Saqlawiyah, Iraq, when they encountered a jihadi ambush. One Marine was hit by enemy fire in the first attack, and then the platoon commander, 1st Lt. Paul Brisker, was hit by a ...

Thanks guys - I thought, given the "viral" reference, it was something malcious.

I wish you could be my doctor!!! Count me in on the "no shrug" team. Lots of folks like the idea of "direct care" or the old-fashioned "fee for service" model, up until the point that they actually have to write a check for something the government and their employer h...

Congratulations! What a great find!!!

I agree checking voting records is needed - but it is very depressing... :( If you know yourself and your enemy: you will have a hundred victories If you know yourself and not your enemy: you will have a victory for every defeat.

Great post and picture!!!

I know you like "neat", I've seen your projects. Am I that obvious? :wink: I use a modification of this system right now. Bought some plastic tackle boxes that have only one large compartment. I am able to put several smaller handguns in these, separated by pieces of an old towel. I use t...

Mike -

I like your thinking! A great way to use those savings!!!

Now, we just need some pictures of your reloading set-up...

Safe travels indeed!

Not specific to leverguns, but to guns in general. For those with safes, I imagine you store your leverguns - and other long guns - in the racks provided in such things. But how do you store your handguns? I had made a rack in my old safe that held my single-action revolvers upright, cradling the ba...

Most people don't know that back in 1912, Best Food's mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York. This would ha...

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack. 'Miss Whack, I'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday.' Patty looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name. The frog says his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, a...

Yes, I'm too lazy to look this up. I keep hearing the term. I am a neophyte on the net compared to most. Other than e-mail, looking up info for work and pleasure, and this forum, I just don't do much else with it.

Figured you more savvy guys would probably know!

It's the quality of the moderators. Otherwise, I'm just a heathen!

An example of why the Senate needs to stop blocking the administrations judge ship nominations! We need all the friends we can get. Which is why the liberals block strict constructionist judges. They know that judges who actually follow and apply the law as written do not help them pass their agend...

Congrats! We need some pictures of that puppy!!!

Congrats Hobie! Looking forward to the range report and photos!!!

I agree checking voting records is needed - but it is very depressing...

We hashed this one out a few months ago. I think I was in the majority in my agreement that this was simply good soldiering! Makes us proud!!!

Kirk -

Another wonderful range report and great (as always) photos. These always pick up my day! Thank you for the report and congratulations!!!

In the "traditional look", I'd go with the Bounter Hunter as well. For a single action with pure strength, go with the Ruger Super Blackhawk!

Very cool!

I've tended to do this with gun laws and been an absolutist on that, but professionally, I'm looking at going back to the "old fashioned" direct care model where you provide the service to the patient, and they pay you. For too long, physicians have "shrugged off" the intrusions...

Saw this on internet a couple-few years ago. It was very interesting!

Welcome to the fire!

Good job GK!!! Nice shooting with that 9422!

Ditto. In SC we don't register specific firearms for carry - or anything else. Only "registered" firearms are those bought from businesses filling out the required BATFE forms. When I lived in Michigan over a decade ago one had to have a permit to purchase a handgun, and then had to bring ...

BTT - Not sure myself - but I'm also interested in the answers. Hobie is right - Pedersoli makes the best of the Italian-produced reproductions. I have two - an 1874 Sharps Heavy Target model and an 1766 Charleville, and the quality is outstanding. Uberti (now owned by Beretta) is next IMHO and not ...

Joe -

I can't believe you stopped to snap a picture of that cape buffalo! I think I would have had to change my pants!!!

Great report, and the pictures are just awesome! Sorry to hear about Roger - I hope he is doing better!!!

Considering a good half of the country wouldn't recognize the Constitution if it was read to them, including elected representatives - and couldn't pick it out from a bunch of other "legal" or "old" sounding documents, it should be no surprise that we see more and more intrusions...

Nothing wrong with a little diversity - makes life interesting!!!

Good for you! I went with the dial lock on the Champion I got as well - and for the same reason. I figured that it was just one less thing to go wrong. Getting free delivery was a bonus and then some. I paid $250 to have the safe delivered a couple years ago, and it was worth every penny. Difficult ...

SC passed the same thing after NO's disasterous example. Kinda put the kibosh on the "oh, that can't happen here" mentality. I don't have a problem with the qualifier. Yes, any qualifier invites abuse, but that is simply reality. I can't see - after the Katrina example - any LE branch havi...

Heck, if those pictures came through any clearer I'd swear I could grab it off the screen and shoot it! VERY NICE!!!

Jim -

Prayers up for both of your sons, for you, and the rest of your family. Hang tough - sounds like they need you!

Oh that instills such a large amount of confidence in our elected representation...

I think I'll pass on testing my reproduction that way!!!

Yep - Winchester's next iteration of the lever-action, the Browning-designed 1886, was the first strong enough - and with a long enough action - to handle the .45-70 Government.

But these 1876 reproductions are very cool!

That's lightening fast!!! Congrats! Now all you need to do is post some pictures of that puppy!

Look very carefully at the tags, warranty information and all documentation you can get your hands on BEFORE you buy the safe you THINK you want. Many of the "STORE BRANDS" are made by the same folks that build a less expensive line under their own label. Some are sold right alongside the...

Drool alert! Drool ALERT!!!

That is one fine smokepole!!!

Tou are 100% correct. It is this kind of thing that gives all outdoors enthusiasts - hunters and target shooters alike - a very bad rap. Just one more nail in our mutual coffin...
