Been trying to find out why Colt built his 1851 "London" Navies using steel backstraps and trigger guards as opposed to brass. Looked everywhere and can't find a reason why. Anybody?

My son lives in Gastonia, N.C.. Yesterday, Friday, a tornado hit between his house and his neighbors. By the grace of God it only ripped out three trees behind his house and went on down the golf course. No other damage to either house. He said it was real quiet and then came the sound of a train. Scary stuff. He has lived in Gastonia since 1998 and this is the first time he's seen a tornado in his area.

Wow, that's one heck of a tour of Russia!

I'm wearing a mask and keeping three feet away from the screen as I read this post because I don't trust none of youse guys to keep three feet away from your screens!

Happens in Daytona Beach all the time. Just seal all the doors then wait til the tide goes up and float it out. Simple. Unless this happened at high tide.............................. Actually it might need a witch with a big broom!

I would take it to a good jeweler before messing with it and damaging it. It may just need a good professional cleaning.

I was stationed in Daytona Beach when this happened and we had gone over the old bridge a couple of times while visiting in the Tampa Bay area. We started crossing the new bridge in 2000 and every time we did my wife always tensed up, crossed herself and mumbled a prayer. The new one is a beautiful and impressive structure. We moved into the Tampa Bay area two and a half years ago but when high winds are present and they post warnings signs I turn around and go to I-75 which adds at least one more hour to my destination.

I can still hear him "knocking............"

Definitively needed when being attacked by militant mallards or gnarly geese.

Lordy, the real true story of what happened to these guys after the war is so full of twists and turns that make finding your way out of the Minotaur's maze a piece of cake. Great story, thanks for posting it!

I'm with you!

Enjoy. I'll drink to that.

They are all slightly different, the same as with The Virginian.

There's two. "Unforgiven" is the one with Clint Eastwood, "The Unforgiven" is the one with Burt Lancaster and Audie Murphy. I have a hard time deciding which I like best of the two.

I read somewhere that while making The Wild Bunch they did not have enough uniforms to dress all the Mexican soldiers that were being mowed down so they had to keep washing the blood off and repairing them as they got torn. Man it's Hollyweird, they can do anything and make us believe it! Anyway Moms and Grandmas used to darn socks all the time, so why not jackets.
