Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474

In a like vein at a press conference with Winston Churchill.

I read about a site welling "Keep Your Distance Sticks"

On the serious side, when they made us start wearing helmets in Ontario, my Father was a little disappointed, because my Mother needed a new kidney.

Naughty Birdgun. Naughty. But funny none the less. Pat will soon be here to chastise you. But I'll try to save you! Here's a meme to try to distract him.

New Meme to replace one already posted.

He let some one peek inside and that let in an evil spirt. It bit his shoulder and his wrist. The Medicine Man has fixed the wrist, but his shoulder is still too sore to safely handle his rifle and shotgun.

We were recent additions to the SASS family. This is the Ottawa Valley Marauders in 2002, before we even had a name. Sadly, while the posse has grown, there are only two of us originals still in the posse. We tried to re-use the IPSC props after their matches the week before.

Thanks for these histerical historical tintypes of the early days. It brought back a lot of memories seeing the names and faces of so many of our founders.

SASS Alias: The Cold Lake Kid SASS Number: 51474 From: Originally Cold Lake, Grande Centre, Medley, Albertan now living in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Shooting since 1953 Cowboy Action shooting since 2002, SASS member since 2003 with The Ottawa Valley Marauders and The Wild Turkey Posse

Naw, that ain't it at all. Actually, skunks don't smell at all! The MSM just made that up to conceal the fact it was the smell of pollytishons! Trust me. I read it on the internet.

Where, in Canada are you heading? The Ottawa Valley Marauders, (Ottawa area). The Wild Turkey Posse, (Prescott & Brockville areas), Ruff's Regulators, (Cornwall) are not too far from the Medicine Line and put on matches almost every Saturday through out the spring, summer and fall. FYI, you can get a Possession and Acquisition Licence, (PAL) to allow you to bring modern toys into Canada.

I watched a landing on one of our Canadian frigates, in rough weather. They drop the winch line, from the centre of the airframe and the deck crew hooks to a winch and ring bolt on the deck. Pilot then powers up and tries to lift the ship, while they deck crew winches the helicopter down. Neat operation.

I took a couple of nice big does with my 1866 in .45 Colt, during one season. Took a nice buck with my 1885 in .45-70 and I use my "Wyatt Earp" open hammer 12 ga. when I hunt partridge, rabbits and grouse. My Browning BSS now feels lonely and neglected in the safe. No handgun hunting here in Canada for a long time.

I pretty well settled on Trail Boss, but I have also used Varget. One of my .45-70's liked it. The other three didn't. For the 100 and 200 yard ranges I have available to me, I found TB driving a 350 gr lead bullet was hitting the gongs consistently and grouping well on paper.

Try reversing them, but beware of back splash.
