A pistol can be used to whoop up on someone. A revolver can be used to hammer a nail. I see it all the time in a Western movie. A rifle can be used to smack down a smart mouth drunk and..... a rifle can be used as a tomato stake. Ammo can be used to shoot (if ya gotta a device to shoot it) or..... it can be used as a good paper weight. I say the 'gun' is more important to own. ..........Widder

Krazy Kajun once told me that he would give his right arm to be Ambidextrous..... ..........Widder

When formulas are established with common and consistent factors, the results can be manipulated to prove whatever the formula is designed to prove. That being stated, NOTHING in Cowboy Action Shooting is consistent except we often shoot 10 rifle, 10 pistol and 4 shotgun. And those numbers can vary should the stage writer so desire. The speed records and the present day fastest GFer's seem to be alternating. No doubt, there are some mighty fine and fast 'double cockers' in CAS..... but ya gotta admit that the alternating style GFer's seem to be the cream of the crop. ..........Widder (Just another old alternating GF)

I know many of you admire her cute face and smile, and guess what.....SHE's BACK with a new commercial. So put on your sunglasses to guard against her radiant smile that I know many of you adore. Long Live KOHL's! ..........Widder

I knew WE couldn't trust you with keeping it a secret. 40 has already been assimilated. Some of us are still invisible! ..........Widder

I gotcha. Thanks. ..........Widder

Someone might be the greatest Cowboy to ride the Trail with, but if they can't apply the rules fairly as the rule is written, designed and interpreted by the ROC, than that Cowboy might want to stick with being a "great competitor" and leave the TO and spotting functions to those who will follow the rules as designed. Just my .02 ..........Widder

TO has the FINAL say on giving, or not giving, a 'P'........ not the spotters. They can only relate to the TO as to what they saw. By the way, good job on the video and your efforts to show what a double discharge looks like. ..........Widder

Thanks for post, Chancy. Indeed, I know the rules but I was hoping Phil could explain his comment about ".....you can tell which revolver was fired first". ..........Widder

Please clarify. Are you saying that the spotters are suppose to look at the pistols and the targets to determine hits/misses and that the pistols are suppose to have a certain firing order? ..........Widder

THIS. ^^^ And check out Griff's '2 digit' member number. No doubt, the voice of experience. ..........Widder

Well stated from one of the best TO's in our game.....and I've shot with a few. Fair and knowledgeable of rules and guidelines. If you use the phrase.."Spirit of the Game" in reference to Tombstone, it can only mean that he encompasses our Spirit of the Game in a positive way. ..........Widder

Another vote for Snake Oil George. I've had 4 sets done by him. All excellent. All were approx 3.5" barrels and he modified the ejector rod housing to fit perfectly to those shorter barrels. ..........Widder

75, my friends. And TW still thinks he's funny. I just hope he pays me what he owes me before he dies. He said that I'm in his will to inherit some of his money to help in what he owes me. I said: "But what if I die before you" TW said: "I'll put a check in your coffin". What a thoughtful guy. Thanks Fellers! Enjoyed your post. ..........Widder

I still have TWO bricks (1000 per brick) that I got back in the 70's that are priced at $7.95 per brick. And both are CCI Large Pistol Magnum. Their 'lot number' is..... C13F. ..........Widder
