I play a pretty good Jews Harp. That's about my limit musically, my daughter doesn't even like my singing.

Pat Riot Countdown!
The Blarney Kid replied to Injun Ryder, SASS #36201L's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Come up to Bozeman, Mt. We have a monthly shoot all year except October and November. Hunting season. Plus we have the Quigley match in June. -
Have any Llama IX-C 45 acp mags, and/or S&W m39 mags?

Dipping the toes into frontier cartridge and frontiersman
The Blarney Kid replied to Ambush Andy's topic in SASS Wire
Been shooting bp since 1979, mostly muzzleloading until I started Cowboy Action in 2006. Lots of fun. I shoot both c&b and cartridge. The only major problem I've had is with the 1875 Remington. The close fitting cy,inder and skinny cylinder pin tends to bind faster than Colts. -
Mine was a '68 Firebird. I got it while in "A" school at Great Lakes. It was my first car.

While in the Navy, one of my duty section leaders related an incident where a new quarterdeck watch was unfamiliar with the 1911 so the secton leader explained how to field strip the 1911 then told him to field strip it himself. Unfortunately, he didn't keep control of the plug and it and the spring flew out into San Diego harbor.

Mine is MZZLLDR.

If you want to try some real long range, come on up to Forsythe, Mt on Father's Day weekend for the Quigley match. Ranges from 350 yds to 805 yds. Lots of fun and great people.

Shouldn't He Be Using A Jennings?
The Blarney Kid replied to Subdeacon Joe's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
That's how I got my Ruger Blackhawk. It was in a gun store near my in-laws the previous owner got it for his son tto carry while hunting. That season the son got an elk, when dad got to him he was using the BH as a hammer with his knife to split the breastbone. This is a 3-screw BH with alloy grip frame. He had it loaded with 6 rounds and the hammer down on a cartridge. His dad quickly took it away and sold it. When I got it one grip panel was chipped and the frame had several gouges where it hit the knife back. -
Snowed last night, Saturday 100°. Nothing unusual for Montana.

I'd say, "good, someone I might be able to beat".

"Mountain Man" stuff...
The Blarney Kid replied to Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I started out muzzleloding back in 79 while stationed at NavCommSta Stockton, CA. Then shot down in San Diego, with the Adak Muzzleloaders, back to SD, then with the Bridger Mountainmen here in Bozeman, MT. Unfortunately, when I started Cowboy Shooting time and funds kept me from doing both, soI haven't been doing any muzzleloading for several years. I still have all my gear and my guns, a CVA mountain rifle and mountain pistol and a CVA double-barreled shotgun. -
Jabez, you need to come down to Forsythe, Mt. for the Quigley shoot on Father's Day weekend. You can arrive a few days before the shoot to sight in. The ranges are from 350 yds. offhand out to 805 yds. shooting off cross sticks.

Howdy Blarney Kid;
Thanks for the Invite, I will Keep that in mind.
I will check dates and see if it conflicts with Our Match ....
It sounds like fun ...
Do you also have a class for Long Range Singleshot Pistol Caliber guns ?
I have a nice .38 WCF. Lowwall that puts the fun factor in shooting, Ladies and Kids really love this gun ...
Must have had a dozen try their hand at 300 yards of my sticks , the grins and massive Smiles on their faces when the steel was ringing ,,,, Well they loved the lack of recoil lighter weight mild report and Hitting shot for shot ...
It made me grin as big as the best of the bunch ...
Sure wouldn't mind hearing more details about the Quigeley Shoot ..
Jabez Cowboy
