  1. Santa Fe River Stan pulls 3 with left hand & 1 with right hand.

     

    He goes over the top with the left hand ammo for first 3 shots and then finishes the 4th shot with the 1 round in his right hand.

     

    He's mighty good. I sure somebody can post a video of him shooting.

  2. JEDI Calico Mary,

     

    All those states you mentioned are top notch when it comes to clubs and the Cowboys/Cowgirls that shoot in those areas.

     

    The ONLY drawback to moving to Indiana is that you will have to put up with Purty Boy (ShyAnnie)... :lol:

     

    Also, a good deal of the clubs in those states are VERY GF indoctrinated. In other words, there are PLENTY of top notch GFer's at many of the clubs in those areas you are considering.

     

    Its not uncommon for the Ocoee Rangers (in Cleveland TN) or the Oak Ridge Outlaws (in Oak Ridge TN) to have 60+ shooters at a match with many GFer's, who also occupy about 50% of the Top 10 every month.

     

    And those clubs also have a few Cowgirl GFer's like Last Kiss and Anita Margarita.

     

    And as a bonus, you would get to see and shoot with some of those ornery OUTLAWS, who do it from the hip. Those folks (Cowboys & Cowgirls) are awesome.

     

    I wish you well in your search. I doubt you would be disappointed in any of those listed states, PLUS most areas of the South.

     

    And just think, in the warm weather months, you could get on a posse and be entertained by Slater, Purly and Widder..... :lol::lol::lol:

  3. USC 52

    PENN ST. 49

     

     

    WHEW, this game was a real donnybrook.

    When Penn St came out in the 3rd qtr and put 21 on the board in 5 minutes, I thought..."Katie Bar The Door'.

     

    But USC wasn't finished strutting 'their stuff' and prevailed.......... despite some terrible Ref calls.

     

    The USC player that was thrown out of the game deserves an apology from those refs. From the replay I saw, he dove over the quarterback and didn't even touch him.

     

    Great game.

  4. CHILI,

     

    I've owned P229 in .40 cal. It functioned flawless. A shooting friend bought it from me.

     

    I presently own 2 full size P320 models in 9mm and .357 SIG. That SIG is a romper-stomper on the muzzle end, but its VERY controllable on the shooting side. I really like it as it is my main carry pistol.

     

    I'm considering buying another in P220 10mm cal. Thats a powerhouse round.

  5. Hey Ridgerunner, I live on the other side of the 'Hill' here in E.TN.

     

    Welcome and I'm sure our paths will cross someday. I normally shoot the NC State match. Lots of GREAT Pards in NC.

     

    And thanks for your service.

  6. When I use to shoot in the cold/cooler weather conditions, I noticed my CLAY loads in .38 special ammo was sensitive UNTIL I started using MAGNUM primers.

     

    The MAG primers give more flash time which apparently help get the CLAYS powder a better chance to fully ignite.

     

    That is my limited experience with weather sensitive ammo.

     

    When I chronograph my ammo, I normally do it in summer months and also make note of the temperature range during my test.

  7. CONFIRM..... If this rifle is the one Junky showed me, the trigger is a 'Slater' trigger mod and in my opinion, they are great.

     

    Slater welds the trigger/sear as one piece and smooths out the sear/hammer cocking notch really nice.

    Then he uses the trigger/lever safety bar to function as a trigger stop. It is truly a neat setup.

     

    I have handled this particular rifle and I honestly ran numerous rounds thru it and found it to be flawless in function and feel.

     

    My opinion, this rifle has no functioning flaws and if the owner knows how to run a Marlin and feeds it properly OAL ammo, I think this rifle is 100% battle ready. Carty did a great job with his rifle work.

     

    If I shot .38 ammo in SASS/CAS, I would have already stolen this rifle away from Junky..... ;)

     

    CHILI RON: Yes, its a Short Stroker.

  8. I think he was the wagon driver who was shot multiple times by the Indians.

     

    He was eating breakfast when a small group of Indians came upon him and they gave him a classic body piecing.

     

    Anyhow, I could be wrong but I think he was that wagon driver.

  9. Not interested in a Vaquero. Want adjustable sights. The gun will not be used in CAS, and a high degree of accuracy is needed.

    Kid,

     

    Although not often seen anymore, there are also some SuperBlackHawk 'Hunter' models out there in .45 Colt. These are stainless with 7.5" barrels.

     

    Ruger still offers the SBH Hunter models in .44 Mag.

     

    I have one of the SHB Hunters in .45 Colt and they are beautiful to shoot.

  10. PWB,

     

    Love it.

     

    I've a fondness for the shorter barreled pistols such as the one you posted.

     

    That IS a beautiful pistol.

     

    (Years back, I bought a Ruger SBH Hunter in .45 Colt. They didn't make many of them cause the .44 Mag was more popular. Anyhow, factory barrel length was 7.5". I sent mine to Mag Na Port and cut to 5" which is flush with the ejector housing. And of course, Mag Na Ported also. When loaded up hot, the porting is a big asset.)
