  1. Well while the 22 L.R. isn’t my first choice for self- defense my wife brought a Ruger SR22 several years ago. That little gun is a lot of fun to shoot. Since ammunition is so inexpensive it is affordable to practice with even for those on a fixed budget.
  2. So if it doesn’t let go how do you get it off after the wound has healed?
  3. I can’t answer your question but another thing to be concerned about is whether you have sufficient funds in your account to cover the $100.00 after it has been deducted. Say for example you only have $80.00 in it. Without overdraft protection you will be charged a fee by your bank.
  4. I think Open Range is a good movie although the ending after the shootout was long. However I am a big fan of Robert Duvall so he makes any westerns worth watching.
  5. W.W.1 or The Great War as it was called never made much sense as well as the United States entering it. Imagine how much different the future would have been if we had entered the war for Germany.
  6. 32-20 is my favorite cartridge. In my club I am the only person shooting it. I have 1873 Carbine and a old EMF 7 1/2” barrel revolver that I have shot for many years. Last year I brought a Uberti 4 3/4” barrel revolver so I could have a pair. Mismatched but I am only in it for the fun. However I quit shooting the carbine. The boards on the floor of some stages have gaps between them that allows brass to fall though and is not recoverable. 32-20 brass is hard to come by and expensive. The 32-20 was a popular hunting cartridge back in the late 1800’s and well into the 1900’s. So much that there were two commercial different loads. A High Velocity cartridge intended for use in rifles and came with a warning not to use in a handgun and lower velocity (pressure) round for handguns. The cylinder walls on my Colt clones are so thick I question if this warning would apply to todays clones made of modern steel. It is a good thing that the Internet ‘xperts and gun ‘righters weren’t around back then to tell folks that the cartridge was too underpowered when deer hunting. Yet a according to the ‘xperts the .223/5.56 cartridge is considered to be a adequate for deer. Go figure.
  7. Neat although I would shorten the buttstock a bit to make the overall gun look proportional.
  8. TV Show got it right. Maryland and Nevada are the only two States that do not have a age limit. What this also means is old farts like SASS members can legally get a tattoo. https://www.tattoorules.com/us/nevada-tattoo-laws/#:~:text=And remember%2C if you’re under the age of,get a tattoo in most places in Nevada.
  9. In Kansas parental consent is required for under 18 yoa. Judging from what I see tattoos do not carry much social stigma. https://www.tattoorules.com/us/kansas-tattoo-laws/
  10. Australia is a Commonwealth Country of England so I imagine they are required to provide military assistance in the event of war with Russia which is now being predicted in the five years. So where is Waldo in our government?
  11. Where’s Waldo, er Congress? Remember public attitudes and the political situation in 1939 until December 7, 1941?
  12. I enjoy watching Dean Martin team up with Frank Sinatra in “4 for Texas” ‘but enjoy “Texas Across the River’ the most.
