  1. I read it as coming from a "large factory"
  2. Here's another one (1918 WWI Memorial) Stonehenge Memorial | Maryhill Museum of Art | Maryhill WA
  3. Check sources mentioned on THIS THREAD
  4. Found this https://youtu.be/MoL8iJB54tA?si=NnMuZw4y_CxV_BPR ...and multiple others by searching "They took the blue from the sky"
  5. Check this pinned post in the SASS Wire FAQ section: Cowboy Gunsmiths
  6. NO. ...but I found a reference regarding "no penalty for self-sweeping while holding the holster when drawing/holstering a revolver" in the minutes of the First Annual SASS Territorial Governor Summit held in Las Vegas, December 10-12, 1999 ...but you're "not talking about" that.
  7. There is no penalty for "self sweeping" listed. "Anyone" refers to "other than yourself" (clarified long ago re: drawing and holstering). The penalty for "Unsafe firearm handling" is a SDQ REF: SHB p.23 That also applies to the following Gunfighter rule: "The revolvers must never be held in an unsafe manner (e.g., one revolver behind the other)" SHB p.8
  8. Under what exact circumstances would the shooter's hand be in front of a muzzle of a loaded firearm?
  9. As already noted by others in this post, the two SHB references to "not awarded in arrears" apply to: "OUTLAWED ITEMS" on p.4 ...as well as "The use of a non-SASS legal firearm results in a Stage Disqualification (SDQ) for each stage the illegal firearm is used. Penalties for illegal equipment/items and firearms are not awarded in arrears but should be corrected before the competitor shoots the next stage. Any violations noticed after the shooter has cleared all firearms may not be penalized." SHB p.11 It does NOT mean that scoring errors (either for or against a shooter) may not be corrected after the shooter has left the firing line (as defined). Firing line – from first firearm placed on the loading table until all firearms are confirmed as cleared at the unloading table. SHB p.44
  10. TO might benefit from some remedial retraining regarding the difference between a revolver and a long gun...IMO. - Inadvertently leaving unfired rounds in a revolver is a miss. (Unless the round is under the hammer, then the penalty is a Stage Disqualification). - A live round left in the chamber of a long gun carries a Stage Disqualification penalty. SHB p.28 - Ammunition Conventions
  11. A number of years ago, I was gifted an SDB press along with 3 large coffee cans full of loaded .38 Special rounds. I was warned that the ammo had been loaded by my friend's father who had been on strong pain meds at the time prior to his passing. I randomly pulled 7 rounds from each can and disassembled them to verify what we both suspected. I discovered extremely wide variations in the powder charges (apparently Red Dot powder) and three different bullet weights. Wore out/broke two impact bullet pullers salvaging the primed brass.
  12. TWO MISSES for the unfired rounds. Any BoD to the shooter. The ONLY way a SDQ could have been called on the shooter would have been the discovery of TEN empties + the TWO unfired rounds at the ULT. Which would have been evidence of loading all SIX chambers in each revolver at the loading table. Were the revolvers checked at the LT to verify hammers were down on empty chambers? Which line of the "RO Pocket Card" did the TO reference to assign the SDQ? A SDQ would have been for either: Changing location/moving with a live round under a cocked hammer or firearm with the hammer down on a live round. (from the LT to the stage) or Failure to adhere to loading and unloading procedures. SHB p.23
  13. If ya had a hammer maybe ya should tried playin' a dulcimer. Back in the early to mid-70's, the inhabitants of the Green, White, and Pink houses had a number of musicians among our group of friends who were quite proficient with various instruments...including autoharps and zithers.
