Tex Jones, SASS 2263

There's a photo on the New York Post website. No ID mentioned although the investigation is in progress.

Those are for pistols. CC wants a rifle spring.

Just change it by half an hour, then everyone will be upset. 😝

Hazy here in MN this morning. Wild fires in the north of the state and resulting smoke moving south. Unhealthy air until tomorrow.

Good news! The rain dance paid off. 😄

I watch Emergency most days. Sad to learn of this.

That was a close one. Happy it worked out.

Fancy!

"We deal in lead, friend." "You gonna pull those pistols or whistle Dixie?" "Dyin' ain't much of a living, boy!"

From the photo it looks to have an extended base pin, which when pushed in prevents the firing pin from impacting the cartridge primer. Folks have replaced that pin with a normal length one.

Do you experience a lot of outages?

It should be in the Smithsonian.

We went from below average temperatures (upper 50s-low 60s) to above average temperatures (80s-90) overnight. Sunny and low humidity, but we skipped the middle temps altogether.

Not very fast if that's important to you. The action was designed for rifle cartridges. I used a Trapper model when I first started CAS, but switched pretty quickly. I used the rifle version in 45 Colt at one Tombstone match, but while it worked, after 4 stages the action got a little stiff due to blowback.

Arms directory shows them in Lantana, Texas. Class 6 FFL.

Sorry for your loss, Forty. She's in a better place.

Title insurance is included in any real estate transaction in some states.

Marshals as well as NCIS, FBI , Sheriff Country, Fire Country and Tracker are fantasy. Any similarity to reality is purely coincidental. BTW, has anyone noticed that Tracker is Have Gun Will Travel updated?

Too bad. You're going to have to take it apart. Broken trigger/bolt spring.

Happy Birthday, Rye!

John Wayne hated that picture. He said that it would never had happened in the real west. The film was supposed to be a metaphor for the McCarthy hearings, where one man was standing up for what's right in spite of attacks against him. Interestingly Grace Kelly's character, a Quaker, resorts to violence in the end. Favorite film of Bill Clinton.

Sorry to read this. Losing them always hurts.

Also, Peacemaker Specialists has some. Any set you get will need fitting.

The military conducted tests comparing the lever action rifles of the day, primarily '66s and '73s to the Springfield Trapdoors. As far as accuracy and penetration over distances the Trapdoor were superior. Of course the lever actions were able to provide a higher rate of fire, at least initially, but were no easier to reload than the Trapdoors once they were emptied. I have a book covering the tests and types of firearms taken from Indians that goes into detail on the subject.

If he's a retired law enforcement officer he can carry nationwide under the LEOSA act. Having said that I had the same question from the beginning of the show. But as C.J. said it's TV fiction.
