  1. Cry once and buy a 73. A 92 will leave you quickly frustrated, and wishing you had just saved a little more a bought a 73. Both the Uberti and the Winchesters are excellent rifles. The Uberti is competition proven and spare parts are readily available. The Winchester 73 is also a fine choice but parts are scarce. PS the Taylors & Co. and the Cimarron are both Uberti's they are just importers, not manufacturers. The only difference is the roll stamp on the barrel.

  2. Of course, having a Cowboy Town built would be mandatory.

  4. I just talked to Bond Arms about the competition kit. They said that the competition kit is standard on all new guns now. That's great. That'll save me $150 so that's money I can put into ammo and other fun things. I'm going to contact American Derringers and see if that price sheet is accurate or not. If it is I'll just go with a Bond the size bothers me but I know I'd have a safe and reliable gun. I tried calling ADC, the store phone number has been disconnected and the other number gets me the voicemail of an Elizabeth. I sent them an email so I'm hoping for a response.

  5. When I won the lottery some 47 years ago, I got one heck of an arms room just full of all kinds of guns. Many of which were complete automatic weapons. That was a ball. Don't think I'll ever win that one again.

  9. A couple of crack heads went to the local cemetery around Veterans Day and took all the bronze flag holders the local VFW had placed on veterans graves, like 200 of them, leaving the flags on the ground. When they arrived at the scrap yard the next morning, the scrap dealer took one into his office "to assay it", telling the crack heads that it could be solid copper. He stalled them long enough for the police to arrive. Due to the number of flag holders involved, and their replacement cost, the crack heads were charged with felony theft. Volunteers replaced all the holders, and someone donated replacement flags. I believe the crack heads got a prison sentence. Whatever the length of that sentence, it wasn't enough in my opinion.

  10. Hi Jack, I started in May 1999. The following were the only categories: Junior, Traditional, Modern, Senior, Duelist, FC Duelist, FC, GF, and the Ladies versions. In 2000, they added 49er. I don't remember the year, but it was later that Junior was split to Young Guns and Buckaroos. Regards, Allie

  11. I cast my own bullets, I have a couple hundred pounds that I've collected and melted down that didn't cost me anything. I use very little powder in my .38's. I just plugged in what the powder cost me and what I get for my primers and that's what it came up with.

  12. Veteran's grave flag stands are another favorite. Tie plates from the RR I worked for disappeared regularly too. I think scrap yard dealers have to check some items out before accepting them

  14. If they would prosecute the scrap yards with a healthy fine of several hundreds of thousands of dollars and possibly jail time for accessory after the fact it would take the profit out of it and this foolishness would stop. As long as there is a buyer nothing is going to stop it. Remove the buyer and there will be no incentive.

  15. Hardly ever see any "cowboy guns" at gun shows and if you do the level of knowledge about them is laughable!!!

  16. Gun shows are still popular here in Missouri. Was at a local show yesterday and it soon got too crowded to move or to see anything. There was another larger gun show about 50 miles south. For some reason, gun shows attract people that shop at the big and tall man store. I'm not small but well below average size at gun shows.

  17. I agree, but I suspect many of the bidders on those websites are buying the guns just to resell at gun shows. I don't have a problem with that, but it might explain why those websites sell guns at much lower prices than those sold at gun shows.

  18. Not too worry, most of the prices at gun shows scares away even the most addicted of us!!

  20. It really is an intense production. I think that without the depth in the story, it would be just another shoot 'em up. The stories give the battles and killings context that seems to even intensify the mayhem. You can always gift it to someone!! As a comical aside, my gunsmith's alias is Willy McCoy and my son's is Hatfield.
