Marlin Phantom Trigger concerns
Deuce Stevens SASS#55996 replied to Jimmy Niner's topic in SASS Wire
Slicks products are great and he is a excellent support of SASS. On separate note it is very possible to shoot a Marlin out of battery, I have done it dozens of times during matches over the years. -
How can I tell a new from old Vaquero?

terrible thing drinking alone......I mean you get used to it but still..... -

Deuce Stevens SASS#55996 replied to Deadeye George's topic in SASS Wire
How about Vaquero Viejo and Vaquero Nuevo in keeping with the Spanish theme. This also makes us much more multi cultural and trendy, which will equal a mass entrance of hipsters into SASS.........wait never mind bad idea. -
Gun cart wheels
Deuce Stevens SASS#55996 replied to Straight Arrow Hombre's topic in SASS Wire Classifieds
These are THE wheel for gun carts -
Awesome! Been15 years for me and cannot begin to express all that SASS has done for me. Could never repay all that I have taken from it that is for sure. What a ride it's been and going to be.

Doc Noper welds them up nicely and also modifies them to allow for more extraction of the hull since the ejector guns have slightly less than the extractor guns. For me I would want that little bit extra shell extraction.

There Is This One Guy Who Got a Stage DQ....
Deuce Stevens SASS#55996 replied to Jim No Horse's topic in SASS Wire
Some people are very passionate about everything they do. I have seen tempers flare at matches dozens of times and almost always they are very upset with themselves. But on the rare occasions you will run into people where it seems to be very much a habit.......spotters are always wrong........the posse has it out for them....wind always blows when it's their time to shoot etc etc etc. My mentor told me about 15 years ago that it takes years to build a reputation and 5 seconds to ruin one. I have tried very hard to keep that at the front end of my thinking. We have all done things at some point in time that we wish we hadn't and I believe in giving people a second chance. But eventually you have to come to the realization that you cannot control the way someone wants to play this game. I often see competitors leave the match early and skip awards if things did not go their way, they always say something like "I'm in a time crunch and gotta get home" when you know full well had they shot the match they wanted to they would be there. I have no respect for that personally and feel that it's terrible sportsmanship, but if that floats your boat so be it. The awesome thing about CAS is that everyone is nice, the bad thing about CAS is that everybody is nice, so folks with bad behavior tend to be tolerated for quite awhile. That all being said after traveling all over the country for all these years and shooting so many places there is nobody I would flat out refuse to shoot with, and I think that pretty cool. -
Amazed by the irony of some who use the living snot out of this forum yet claim to have no use for the organization that owns it............wow
-
in my experience the positives have not outweighed the negatives so I will continue to shoot and produce a traditionally lubed bullet that has served me very well for 15 years of CAS shooting. Try them and see they may just be the bees knee for you but they were not for me.

Tornado.........Thank you for your post, my thoughts exactly.

Deuce Stevens SASS#55996 replied to Brimstone Bill Willson's topic in SASS Wire

How do you "outrun the gun?"
Deuce Stevens SASS#55996 replied to Cypress Sam, SASS #10915's topic in SASS Wire
Yeah bu I knew a guy who knew guy.............ah nevermind -
Don't look at it then. Just like any cowboy would do I adjust my gear so it's at it's maximum effectiveness for the task at hand. For me bandoleers are the most ridiculous in my eye but I'd never tell someone that on the range.
-
I know the difference between the two, the volley fire pistol as explained by the manufacturer in the video is quite different.

Two shots with one pull? The ATF will want to talk to them about that......

Misty is well and getting ready to represent SASSat SHOT Show.

Show Us Your SASS/WB Buckles, Medals, Plaques
Deuce Stevens SASS#55996 replied to Del Rio Pete's topic in SASS Wire
Thank you Pete! Lets not get into $$$ specifics please LOL, I don't want to think about it. The memories and friendships made along the way have been priceless and would have been just as good without the buckles etc. I'd trade em all in a heartbeat for a few more minutes with friends that have passed on. Unbelievable rewards in this game that you can't put on a shelf. -
Practice with dummies will do far more than blasting away with live ammo. There are some excellent videos for learning how to load a SxS for our sport on Youtube.

Deuce Stevens SASS#55996 replied to Del Rio Pete's topic in SASS Wire
Here are a few of what I could actually get to without tearing the basement apart. Some are my wife and some are mine. Proud of them all but feel bad cause we don't do anything with them as far as display. Good memory fuel for all the good times and all the places I've been fortunate enough to go shoot at over the years. -

Sorry have to disagree, locktime not a factor in CAS. -

Short answer, you don't. It's all personal timing. Catching your hammer or jacking rounds out of a rifle are products of your perdonal timing being off.
