Creeker does make a valid point. Basically, I'm really not in either 'camp', so to speak. I have great memories of friends, but I will admit that watching a close cousin (Army), a Sunday school teacher (Navy) and close friend (Army) suffer for many years and die from Agent Orange diseases and health issues dimmed a lot of those fond memories. I guess 'Happy Memorial Day' isn't inappropriate because we also say 'Happy 4th of July' in honor and memory of those who have given us a reason to celebrate Independence Day! ..........Widder

Regardless of the method(s) you choose, try to keep your focus on CORRECT type practice. Dry firing can easily become sloppy and start showing up in competition. I've dry fired my pistols over a million times each, just for speed practice. I got sloppy enough to have fast misses..... Dry firing with my shotgun was much more beneficial. If you are using a 97, I have 3 videos that could help you in your dry fire practice. They'll be listed on YouTube under 'Widowmaker Dryfire' practice 1, 2 and 3. Deuce is a World Class shooter and he also have some excellent videos on multiple firearms and proper practice info. And another EXCELLENT group of videos have been produced by World Champ Dead Eye Dillard. He's a great shooter and makes some real good dry fire videos. Best regards ..........Widder -
SOLD. Marlin CB 32 mag
Widder, SASS #59054 replied to Long Fingers, SASS#56813's topic in SASS Wire Classifieds
Indeed..... RARE. And NIB makes it even MEGA RARE! Marlin didn't make many of these, somewhere rumored to be 600, maybe a few more. They can be one of the finest and fastest rifles for SASS and fun to shoot. Just ask Bogus Jim. I already own 2 of them or else I would highly consider buying. Should sell pretty quick. Good luck and congratulations to the new owner, who ever they be. ..........Widder -
Father Kit Cool, Good topic and I agree with you. I have, for MANY years, told folks that it is not a 'Happy Memorial Day' as verbally expressed by many. But rather an observance to honor those killed in battle or died as a result from injury in service to our country. And in my opinion, for those who died 20-40 years later from agent orange health issues from Vietnam or servicing areas. Like Rye, I rarely say anything but I do remind folks its a day of 'observance' and why we observe. ..........Widder

Remember, TW was in E.TN a couple weeks back when that earthquake occurred. And, its rumored that his new 'curse elixir' has some powerful consequences when properly administered. Who will be this years "Jinx" recipient at the TN State? Will it be Capt BB? Or maybe Sedalia Dave? Or maybe a new name will enter the 'Curse Hall of Fame' whose name will be forever etched in TW's wall of shame. ..........Widder

I can't believe I opened a Thread to read about TW. And, I can't believe all of us commented about somebody that NOBODY likes...... well, maybe Capt BB likes him a little just out of kindness in his heart and a little pity. ..........Widder

Yea, he beat me out of a lot of $$$. But he ain't got paid yet cause I still owe him. Matter of fact, I think I'll mail him a check tomorrow and hope it dont get lost in the mail. Y'all do know that he is kin to Blackwater..... ..........Widder

I have a confession to make.

Sorri Pat, but there ain't any info anywhere but here about the Widdermatic/Widdermajik or the Henry Soft Stroke. ..........Widder -

Widder, SASS #59054 replied to Father Kit Cool Gun Garth's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Cool Gun, You are right.... there is an abundance of very knowledgeable folks on this forum that are always willing to help. There are a good handful of folks in which I read their post with great interest. To ALL of YOU who take the time sharing your knowledge, wisdom and experience....... THANK YOU! ..........Widder -
TW swore me to secrecy about his new concoction for this years state match. All I can say is that I've already witnessed its 'curse potency' when he spilt a couple drops of 'IT' on my garage floor back in March. Then, all during April and first part of May, I was battling Pneumonia and such. I haven't invited him back over since. So folks....... BEWARE! The game is on and TW has some new stuff. ..........Widder

Who makes good 'hard cast, gas check' bullets?
Widder, SASS #59054 replied to Widder, SASS #59054's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Thanks. I checked out their website and unless I overlooked something, I didn't see what I was looking for, which is a hard cast, gas check bullet in .45 caliber in weights of 250 up to 325. These will be shot in my .454 Casull and 460 S&W mag pistols. I did find them at 'Rim Rock Bullets' and placed my order this evening. Again, thanks! Best regards ..........Widder -
Am I seeing things?
Widder, SASS #59054 replied to Father Kit Cool Gun Garth's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Father, You circled the man EXACTLY like I see it. And his right eye looks 'oriental' to me. ..........Widder -
In watching a WWII movie, it shows that many vehicles, including enemy vehicles, had license plates. When did ALL the countries in the world decide to identify each vehicle with a license plate? Or, are there places that don't go to the trouble to have plates? ..........Widder

Am I seeing things?
Widder, SASS #59054 replied to Father Kit Cool Gun Garth's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I see a mans face (full face) in areas 1,2,3 and 4. His right eye is also 'slanted' as though he might be oriental. His lips are also closed as though he is about to smile without showing his teeth. I see a running little person, possibly a girl with a pig tail, running in frame 4 and 6. And, it kinda looks like one of the 7 dwarfs face in frame 6 and 8. EDIT: I saw the 'oriental' man immediately. but It took me a couple minutes to see the other figures. ..........Widder -
I would venture to say that just about every gun I've ever really wanted...I bought or traded to get it. Some of the finest (and I don't have expensive taste) have been: Winchester 9422 (.22 LR and .22 mag) Marlins: 1894's in most calibers, 1895's, and model 60 (.22 LR) I also have a Marlin single shot model 101 (T-bolt style) Two .45 Colt 'Ruger Super Blackhawk "Hunters". These are kinda rare as Ruger didn't make many in .45 Colt. One is 7.5" (factory) and the other has been cut and Mag-Na-Port'd at 5.5". About 8 different S&W model 41's (.22 LR) A few S&W model 29's and 629's. A S&W model 25-5 in .45 Colt High Standard 'Victor' in .22 LR S&W performance center .44 mag 'Comp Hunter'. S&W 460 mag. and I've sold or traded off more than I can count during the past 50 years.....almost as many as girlfriends..... EDIT: oh yea, I once possessed a small Python collection back in the 70's. And presently, have a 4" Anaconda. ..........Widder

She Needs to Shoot a Widder/Slater Henry
Widder, SASS #59054 replied to Texas Maverick's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
she chambered the 4th round in the 45-70, left the hammer cocked and 'twirled' that rifle up like it was empty and safe handling. She needs a lesson in safe gun handling. ..........Widder
