Is it readily available? Now and again, in fiction, somebody will bring out a 10 gauge double barrel and either just threaten someone or blow them away. I assume they have a 10 gauge in the book because it's big and scary. I know there are people in the game that use 10s. But I presume they load their own, because as high as 12 gauge has gotten 10 gauge must be outrageous. If it's available at all. I don't think I've ever seen any 10 gauge on the shelf. Of course, I don't think I've ever seen any 28 gauge on the shelf. So maybe people who shoot these things have to order them in.

Pat, take a look at the chambering on the side of this Colt 32. Up until World War II many gun and ammunition makers spelled it re instead of er.

I'm sorry. Is there a rule now that you have to be Mexican to play Mariachi music? "Several of the students were not of Hispanic descent." So?

That's sort of like asking which is better for bowling - 17-lb ball or a 10-lb ball. Kind of depends on you and your size. In my experience a Butterball tends to be a larger bird than the grocery store brand. Now if these three gentlemen were participating, The two on the outside could probably handle a Butterball easily, while that runt in the middle would most likely do better with the smaller grocery store brand.

Turkey bowling. You set up 10 2L bottles of soda in a grocery store aisle, and slide a frozen turkey down the aisle trying to knock the bottles over.

I read a novel many many years ago Damn it otto I said many three times Many many MANY years ago. This kid decided he was going to make some money by growing sugar beets. Now for them that have never grown the garden, you plant your stuff close together. If you figure there's room for five growing plants, so you only plant five, probably only two of them are going to come up. So you plant 15 or 20 and as they're growing you choose the best looking ones there, and you pull up the others. You thin them out. And when he thinned out his beets he would throw them to the pigs. Said that winter when they butchered the hogs, that was the sweetest pork they had ever eaten.

Gumbo is Swahili for okra. Which is why gumbo has to have okra in it. Otherwise it's not gumbo. The more you know

I appreciate most of the things you post Joe. And if people don't like them cuz they're on Facebook or Instagram - oh well.

Nope, but I think he took over for Jack Handy after he got fired from Saturday night live.

Whether it started out factory nickel or not I don't know. But that gun has obviously been refinished. Compare the slide pic to what it's supposed to say. You can see the word Colt, the ATI of the word automatic, and about half of the horse. Everything else has been polished away
-
I doubt it is factory nickel either. Except for the occasional commemorative I don't think Colt did nickel with gold highlights.
