Pard, do a search on the Hooligan Gun Cart. It might be just what you are looking for.

Sir, I do not have the words. My deepest sympathies to you and yours.

Thank you for the updates. Our prayers will continue.

Sure wish I could have made it this year. Thank you for sharing the pictures with us.

AG, you just gave me a great idea. Thanks, pard!

Yep. Like I said though, I have long since known about these companies. Does anyone know of people who might make them as a side business of sorts? There was someone who sent me pictures way back when of some of his/her work, but for the life of me, I cannot remember who. I was especially inerested in that person's product line, as they made replicas of the batle shirts worn in "Ride With The Devil." Oh well, that's what I get for not saving stuff...

I think I posted this question years ago, but didn't save the answers. I have also "googled" it to death. Do any of y'all know people/small companies that make the confederate battle shirts, like the ones that were worn by Quantrill's raiders? If you do, I would be forever in your debt.

Clear Windex and/or warm water.

Yes I would, thank you.

Prayers continue for you, my friend.

Pards, as usual your knowledge is overwhelming, not to mention vital. Thank you again.

DH, I'm like you. I won't be able to shoot the match due to heal-related reasons, but I will be there Sunday morning to conduct Cowboy Shurch.

An old friend of mine works for an aircraft fastener manufacturer. They recently attended a function in DC to receive a preferred supplier award from some government agency (I do not remember which one). Their host/guide that day kept telling Paul and his entourage how "appreciatory" they were of Paul's employer. APPRECIATORY?????? Where in the blue hell did THAT b*st*rdized word come from? And to make matters worse, the gentleman using the word kept reminding Paul about his Masters degree. SHEESH!

Clean up is not that big a deal, Yusta. I am just looking for a way to make it easier. You know me, I'm lazy as all getout.

Pards, I am toying with the notion of using fiber wads in plastic shotgun shells with my BP loads, in lieu of plastic wads. I'm thinking it will make for easier cleaning, as I won't have to clean out the melted wads from the insides of the barrels. Have any of you done this? If so, have you noticed any difference in shot spread during firing, or anything like that? As usual, thank you in advance.

All of this reminded me of an article in Aviation Week that I read years ago. Congress was going through one of its many gyrations at the time to cancel production of the A-10 Warthog. Piper Aircraft was preparing an unsolicited bid for what they called a low-cost alternative. The engineers at Piper had taken a vintage P-51 airframe and modified it to hold a turboprop engine and a (if I remember correctly) 30mm cannon. Obviously the A-10 was never cancelled, so Piper's prototype never went anywhere. But it sure would have been interesting.

Amen. Speaking as one who did not serve (my eyesight kept me out), you all are made from much sterner stuff than me. I truly admire you all.

Having grown up on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, my favorite is hushpuppies with guava jelly.

Probably 7 or 8 regularly in the South. With this scenario, I would also try to hit a different state out west or up north every year as well,to keep it iinteresting.

Pards, what is the easiest way to disable the safety on a Stoeger? Pictures will help. Thanks.

Oh I'll never tell!

Been meanin' to talk to y'all about that...

That depends on how many naked men there are!

Our prayers will continue. Give your wife a big hug and kiss, and tell her it's from all of us in Georgia.

Bought a used 650 about a year ago, and it is perfect for my needs.
