  1. The only bolt action that I've owned that was that slick was on a 1908 Mannlicher-Schoenauer 8x56mm carbine. Both guns had similar semi-rotary magazines. I've owned one of each and regret selling them both. Strangely enough, they had similar ballistics, too.
  2. I'm looking for a nickel S&W logo round belt buckle. I went to ebay...don't ask me why because I seldom go there without being disappointed. Todaywas no exceptio. I found buckles labelled as S&W revolver but the pics showed a two with Walther's PPKs, three with Remington double derringers, a Colt 1911, a Luger, a dozen or more with rifle.one with a shotgun, etdamncetera. NONE...NOT ONE...said what the material was , a few didn't state a price. Several were for gun belts and one was dress belt, none with buckles. I went to the S&W site and found exactly what i wanted but no description nor price could be found. To hell with it. I'll find source for Colt buckles and see if they want to sell something, because the jackasses on ebay don't seem to in the selling business....and I have a bunch of Colts and clones that are crying for buckles.
  3. So give me an alternative. I don't do facebook. He doesn't get messages. His profile doesn't give me any info. Someone told him about my quest (thank you very much, whoever you are) and he called. Been a long time but we got started on a catch up series.
  4. And I'll demand to be faced by my accuser. See how that works out!
  5. I never heard of him before, never saw him before. HE'S MY NEW BEST FRIEND! Look him up and watch him. You'll understand
  6. I hate guys like that. I can't stick a pistol's muzzle in a bucket of water and make a splash. I'm high mediocre with a rifle and better than most with a shotgun.
  7. Couldn't stand Archie bunker. He and my father-in-law were the same guy..... and both were the rear fifteen inches of a horse
  8. This could get real nasty....and much of the world will side with Iran and / or any other Muslim Country and blame Israel and us for the whole thing.
  9. Give me a call if you please. Thanks. Tom
  10. I have three shoe-boot repair places. Two don't even want to discuss it, the third is the guy I mentioned before. I may have to work with him. There are lots of good workmen here but none is free for backlog reasons like making CCW and tactical goods, and if they are free to do the work they are usually making rigs for SAA types, '75 Outlaws and few for Schofields.
  11. Bill Bixby: Courtship of Eddie's father, and a tie with Cliff Huxtable.
  12. I'll try both ways. There's a man here who makes the best holsters I've ever seen, except he won't do it any way but his way. I have three of his rigs, but I walked away on this one and one before that. If you want a really exactingly perfect historical rig he's the man to see. Show him a picture and wait for a few months and you'll get a wonderful rig, even down to tooling and carving.
  13. I heard #4 was "Daddy O, Laddy-O and the Spook." Either way it's still hilarious.....and it's older than either of us, maybe both of us together. Thanks.
  14. That's a mighty small house. Where do keep your guns?
  15. Utah has the 24th of July which is the date it became a state. That's he only one I know of, but it's never come up before. They used to alternate celebrations, large one one year and a smaller one three weeks later, then reverse it the next year. I seem to remember that we shared the parades with Ogden: one year the big one in Logan and a smaller one in Ogden the switch the following year. I haven't lived there in 54 years and don't know if they even celebrate either one any more. FWIW, Ogden used to have truly wonderful rodeo on the 4th through the 6th every year. Logan's rodeo was much smaller, just one Saturday around the 24th, but a good place for kids to get in some show time and learn the ropes.
  16. I have a Cimarron Arms First Model American sixgun with an 8" barrel that needs a western style holster and so far I can't even find anyone who knows what the gun is or looks like. I don't want anything fancy, maybe on the order of the Slim Jim style and a matching belt. Most importantly, I want to work with the craftsman to get it like I want it and I don't want the gun to be at the shop for months on end. Someone in the vicinity of Prescott Valley Arizona would be ideal. Any suggestions or recommendations?
  17. Old Colt .38 Dick Special and a 1911 .45 do me just fine. I have other guns "for special occasions" but I can get along fine with just those two and some spare ammo.
  18. I had a pair of those made when I was managing a book store. (Before I got the transplants.) Saved me from standing on my head whilse working the shelves. I had a regular pair for desk and table work.
  19. I use a mortar and pestle simply because I have them and they're easy to use and clean. Never used that other stuff so I don't even know what y'all are talking about.
  20. Give me couple of day's notice so I can stock up the fridge. Brace yourselves for the friendliest dog on the planet.
  21. I have regretted selling my 2009 Tacoma from the moment I turn the keys over to the new owner. It had nine years and only 29,000 miles on it and the only problem I had with it involved driving through a keg of roofing nails that fell off a truck at the two year mark: all four tires, two rims, and a bunch of dings and scratches along the lower right side. The truck owners paid to have it brought back to new condition. They also paid for the two cars behind mine, both with more damage than my truck.
  22. SHOOT FIRST! SHOOT TO KILL. TAKE NO PRISONERS. TAKE IT HOME TO THEIR HOMES IN VENEZUELA.
  23. On December 7th, 1941 we lost fewer people than we did at the World Trade Center. In less time than this last bunch of leftist idiots have been in office we joined some allies and in a bit less than four years we destroyed countries; over threw governments; wrecked untold millions of dollars worth of historical places, buildings, and other treasures; directly or indirectly were responsible for millions of deaths... both military and civilian including men, women, children old and young and in between, the sick, disabled, mentally challenged, etc.; erased million of dollars worth of irreplaceable arts, literary works, scientific plans, projects, and formulas; ruined economies; and even changed landscapes. NO ONE HAS TO THIS DAY BEEN RIGHTFULLY CALLED TO TASK OVER THE ATROCITIES WE HAVE SUFFERED SINCE THAT DAY OF INFAMY! IT IS TIME WE CORRECTED THAT GROSS ERROR!
