    My brother bought a 1941 Powerwagon back in the early '70s.  Found, after much swearing, that the driver's side wheels had LH thread lugs.

    Didn't all Chrysler products have left hand thread lug nut on the left side of the car until the 70's at least?

    Especially when you don't know that it's a left hand thread.

    My cousin had a set of kerosene lamps. I asked why there was no oil in them, he said he couldn't get them open. After a bit of struggle I figured out they were LH thread. Why would anyone put LH threads on a lamp?

  3. I think pump guns kick to hard for a day of shooting. A good semi is easier on your shoulder and most have shims to change the fit, but toss empties all over the place, most clubs want you to pick up your empties.  SXS's can block a lot of air space at 20/40 yards, easy to loose a bird behind them. That leaves o/u, most shooters use one. I've heard it said if you can't hit anything with a Beretta get a Browning and or the other way around. The old SKB was made in Japan and considered a good gun, the new O/U is made in Turkey by Akus, considered to be the best O/U maker in Turkey. I have a SKB 690 in 28 ga, made in Turkey, It's been a good gun. I would not hesitate to buy a SKB, Mossberg , or Stevens O/U made in Turkey. That said I like my Brownings the best.

  4. Buddy of mine had a XLCH, that CH stood for "competition hot". Came out of a bar one night he couldn't get it to start, asked me to try, one kick it's running. Walked over to my bike some guy I didn't know looks at me and says " ever notice them guys with CHs like to ride with a fat friend? ''

    " ...we've only got this one complaint: 'she winds up where the target ain't...' "

    With just a few changes that should work at a cowboy shoot.
