SASS membership is only @ $5 a month. That's just a few pennies a day.
And some folks question its validity.

G.W.,
atleast that 257 gets to stay in the family.
Back in 1993, my daughter was born.
I immediately went out and bought her a Winchester 9422 XTR.
When she got @ 10, I let her shoot it. She liked it.
I kept it as a safe queen, along with the original box, until she got older.
She got married a few years back. Her husband is a true red blooded Southern outdoorsman. Shoots, hunts, fishes, travels to Montana to hunt...etc.....
I bought him a gun safe.....and inside of it rest a nice Winchester 9422 XTR. Its value has tripled. I miss it and wish
I had bought 2 of them. But atleast its in the family and I doubt she will ever let it go.

$19 a month equates to roughly 63 CENTS a day. Some of those agencies will say that in their ads.
If you notice, the SAME dog (animal) ads have been showing for 3+ years. Some of those animals have probably died by now.
I like the part, especially with the life insurance ads, about how AFFORDABLE the cost is set. Well, if all of them
are affordable, why don't I have any money to invest in them?

I started culling my collection about a year ago.
So far I only have five more than I started with.
YEP... me too.
Last year, at the start of 2025, I was gonna trim down some of my safe fillers and not buy any new ones.
12 months later, I might have let go a couple BUT, I replaced them with a 460 S&W mag, 500 S&W mag, 44 S&W 'Comp Hunter',
Colt .44 Anaconda, Colt .44 Kodiak, and a couple new 1911's in .45.
I also managed to acquire a super customized 6mm rifle and a super nice, new in box, Kimber heavy barrel 22-250 varmint rifle.
And don't forget the great little CZ 457 in .22 LR.
2026 lurks in the shadows and I've already got my eyes on a couple new toys.

Clusterphobia: when you have a bunch of guns that you go crazy trying to shoot all of them.

I am looking for a dishwasher, should be 22-25 years old, female, ...
How much will you pay for the Geisha Twins to visit a couple times a week?
One of them can 'walk on your back' barefoot while the other cleans the kitchen.....
I hope PWB doesn't see this post. He likes one of them and will get jealous.
P.S. - Happy Holidays, PWB. Hope your New Year is merry and bright!

Would you be interested in trades. I got some once used Brillo Soap pads and 1/2 a can of Bonami.

Think about this........... when TW was in his teens and before he got married, his name was a part of MOST DAD's new years resolution
list.
Now that he's married and a family man (and owns a few weed eaters) New Years resolutions have become more 'civil'.....

But could you ask for a better friend?? Besides, he likes nanner splits!
But he never saves me any banana. Just ask Blackwater (his cousin in law). He brought Blackwater a nanner split once without any ice cream
in it and only 1/2 of a nanner.
He said 1/2 the nanner was rotten so he eat it to keep it from spoiling the rest of the nanner split.
When ask WHY it didn't have any ice cream, he said he was taste testing it to see how cold it was.
Yep, he's sure a humble feller......always thinking about how he can help out others.

The only person I know more humble than Forty is TN Williams. And if you don't believe TW is humble (and modest), just
ask him. He'll be glad to tell you he's humble and modest. He tells me all the time.

Thank you all for the information, I was able to find what I needed, and I’ll save all of this for future reference.
Why not share with the rest of us who would like to know of good sources. Tnks.

Getting CUT or STUCK can sometimes be the best education for a young feller. It teaches US all that
accidents will happen and being careful is Rule #1.
Rule #2: teach him how to whittle.
Rule #3: teach him how to sharpen it.
Rule #4: When teaching him SAFETY, let him know his taking care of that knife might determine when he gets his first
BB or pellet rifle..... kinda like an elementary test for future gifts.....
P.S. - that is a nice gift.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I just got off the phone with Eyesa. It was nice and thoughtful Christmas call from him. And it was good to hear
from him.
Most of us find ourowndangself too busy to give a friend a call during these holidays..... but it sure is nice to hear from
them and also wish them well.
So Pards..... even without a phone call, I still wish ALL Y'ALL a Merry Christmas and safe holidays.

I understand that DOVES are mated for life and when you see a single adult dove sitting on a tree limb, its probably lost
its mate. Those 'single' doves will sit on a limb during the summer evenings and 'cooooooooo' for their mate.

Don't feel slighted by a 10 spot.
Most BIG gun stores have a drink machine and a candy machine. Stay refreshed while shopping.
On the other hand, maybe 9 other friends will also give you a 10 spot. They add up.
P.S. - sounds like your best friends with TN Williams and that gift is from him.

great idea.
What would even be more exciting is if you find out later the 'correct person' could be a Cowboy and you might know them
by their alias. Stranger things have happened.
MERRY CHRISTMAS

I can see it now........ Blackwater will be lying in his casket, probably looking spiffy and clean..... everyone walking by
and making nice, appropriate comments........... THEN here comes his kin, TN WILLIAMS, walking into the funeral home
like he owns the place.....and the whole dang atmosphere changes and folks start telling big lies. It happens
wherever TW goes.

Howdy Chief.
I don't know about the 38, 357 accuracy in the Maximum, BUT.....I can share my personal experience with the
C45S accuracy in my .45 Colt 1894 Marlin.
Accuracy was terrible, even at 10 yards. I used a red dot for an aiming device and also was resting the rifle on sand bags.
My .45 Colt loads clustered tightly where I was aiming.
My C45S loads shot more like a 'patterned'. Hardly any 2 shots hitting close to one another. At first, I thought maybe my
red dot had broken. Then I thought maybe my lead bullets I was using in the C45S were undersized.
It was 'the jump' from the chamber to the barrel causing bad accuracy, even at close distances like 12-15 yards. I didn't
try further distances to see how bad it could have been.
Merry Christmas.

No way, in my humble opinion.
On his/her first shift of gear, that pause would have caused gravity to take over.

I doubt I would advertise any 'special ops' type stuff.
My job in the Navy as a radioman actually taught us to keep our mouth shut about our job functions....."Loose lips, sink ships'.
But I do think its appropriate to put some military history on a job resume.

The older waitress in the movie ask her customers........ "What don't you want"?
Then she started using words unrepeatable in our Saloon talk.
But folks are always sharing good memories and great thoughts about those who have passed away and it made me think.....
What won't they say about me.
1. they won't say the room lit up when I walked in, or that I never met a girl who didn't like me.
2. they won't say I was successful in all my endeavors
3. and... they won't say that all my X's live in Texas.
4. and they won't say I like onions.

Alabama just defeated Oklahoma in a 1st round football championship.
Perry Mason show tonight is actually titled: "The Case of the Crimson Kiss".
I thought that is kinda ironic.
ROLL TIDE!
