Well, I've got to go guys! Talk to ya later and talk all you want to!
Re: Let's Talk.
I don't really look forward to Christmas anymore.
It's not because I don't enjoy giving gifts to those I care about, it's because the local overlords schedule property-tax collections during the same season.
They always take more from me so that I can keep the property that I thought I had already paid for over the years than I can afford to spend on those I love.

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.
History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

Re: Let's Talk.
I'm off and on vacation all next week I figured I'd get the wife's present taken care of then. She wanted a sting of pearls or sumptin like that. I wonder what would happen if I got her a pistol with Pearl handled grips? Maybe Ivory since we all know what Gen Patton said about Pearl.
Maybe a bird's head Vaquero with Ivory grips?

Well, Vinnie - whenever you can get back online, why not tell us why you chose the handle you did (bearhunter) ?

Re: Let's Talk.
Bearhunter...welcome to the camp.
Pay no mind to Terry...lately he's been wound too tight. Comes with bein' an Old Coot!
Don't mind the caps either...he don't hear so good no more & has to shout (even when writing) to hear himself.
Pay attention though when he writes about Leverguns & huntin', he knows his stuff son!
Tell us more about yourself including some of your adventures. Show some pics if you can.
Stay a long time...as long as you want.
Terry: come off afterburner pard...you're overheating the jets.

Re: Let's Talk.
Welcome. Stick around a while and you are sure to learn something. Most everybody here has an area in which they know a lot. Whatever you have to say may not always be about leverguns, but if you announce in the title that it is OT, then it probably will be OK. We have asked each other for advice, prayer, and many other things. Everyone I have met face to face on here has turned out to be a good person. Don't break the rules and you should learn a lot and have a good time doing it.

I've got two, pre'64 (one made in 1953, the other made in 1954. The one from 1953 is in 90% overall condition and the '54 made is in 95% condition) win94's in 30-30. I'm on the market for a Marlin 1895g. I do hunt with both of them. We have a LOW budget so we don't shoot as often as we like.
WOW! I love this forum! You guys aren't mean like on other forums! Thanks guys!

It just popped into my head. It's ironic, because I've never hunted bears, yet. I'm REALLY into whitetails though.

Re: Let's Talk.
Well Kiddo,
You found just about the coolest place on the Net!
I got here asking about a kinda scarce Marlin and haven't left since.
(i'm sure they're tired of me)
There's an amazing volume of "Been there, done that" knowledge as well as
some darned fine people!
Hope you find a comfortable spot and stay a while!

Re: Let's Talk.
Gotta admit I enjoy internet sarcasm & straight-forward, unhibited talk. I like politics. I come here though for a rest & to maintain my sanity.
Nice folks here although they talk an awful lot about some kind of gun with levers, whatever that is.
