Replicas!
I once held and original 1875 model, genuine, papered, 90% engraved, 95 point or better Remington revolver. I actually held onto it for several months and slept with it under my pillow.
It belonged to Smokin’ Joe Anderson, the founder of Possum Trot, who actually said that it would be mine when he died. It was absolutely gorgeous! It had #22 scribed on the inside of the grip panels and it was still really tight and smooth.
As far as I know, it’s still in the possession of the family and I am good with that.

I sed to keep a flask of Southern Comfort for bad sore throats. It helped. But only if sipped slowly. About a 1/2 ounce over the course of an hour.
Done that myself!I’ve never had a DUI, but there was one instance where I should have gotten one.
I was nineteen years old and it was the dead of winter on a Saturday night, (or maybe a Sunday morning) and I had been partying all day!
You’ve all heard the old story about being stoned and sitting through a couple cycles of the traffic light. It happened to me for real!
I pulled up to the intersection of Donelson Pike and Lebanon Road and stopped for the red light. I don’t know how long I sat there, but the local “bad news cop” woke me up, tapping on the window of the car with his flashlight. I knew him because he had a reputation for being a hardass and I was a local street outlaw that he was very familiar with, (long before Street Outllaws was ever thought of) and because my dad was also a cop.
It was my mother’s Lincoln MkIII and I hit the window button and rolled down the window!
“ROEHRICH!” he said, “we’ve tried red, green, and yellow! You waitin’ on purple or something?”
I don’t recall what I answered with, but he leaned down to look me square in the eye and said, “You take yer ass straight to the house and put this damned thing in the garage! I’m gonna follow you! If you don’t, I’m gonna haul your ass outta that car and drag it straight to jail!”
I went straight home!! Two days later, my old man read me all 300 pages of the Riot Act and told me if I pulled that trick again he’d take me to jail himself!!
Sgt. Jim Massey never did let me forget that and reminded me of it on numerous occasions!!

My folks used to keep a bottle of Jack Daniels in the pantry for a couple of the local Menonite patriarchs.
They aren’t supposed to drink liquor, but, you know, medicinal purposes… 🙄🤣

I followed that back to you tube, to see if it was in fact a clip from the rookie. And then I read a lot of the comments - there's 110 and I didn't read that many, but I read a bunch.
It's amazing how many people know facts about things, but they all don't seem to know the same fact.
Somebody was upset that Nathan said that claymore was unstable. Because it is made from c4, and c4 is so stable it's not even funny. It's almost impossible to explode it unless you have the actual stuff designed to do so. It won't explode by burning or hitting it with a hammer ---- wait a minute now. I've read many times about people opening the mine and taking a little pinch of c4 out to use to make a fire to heat up their rations. That's supposedly works real well. And then they would stomp the fire out. And stomping on it would cause it to explode and blow their foot off.
So on the one hand we have the guy saying that it cannot explode from heat or percussion, and then on the other hand have all those stories about GIs stomping out burning c4 and blowing themselves up.
Hmmm.
At that point, you have combined heat with concussion. Perhaps at that point, all bets are off?? -

No miss shoot

We used to do this once in a while at Possum Trot on our Sunday, 5th weekend shoots.
We always had two regular two day shoots a month and would also do a fifth weekend shoot if even one day of that weekend was in the month!
Those months, we’d have six matches!! I would often spend a week at the range between matches. We had nice cabins and a laundry and bath house on site!
DAMN! I MISS THAT PLACE!!
