Grizzly Adams 3674

Hardest kicking rifle I ever fired was a friend's Winchester Model 71 chambered in 450 Alaskan. 400gr bullet, loaded just a bit north of 2000FPS. Hit me so hard, that I thought the dang thang had blown up! I suspect it would have been of great comfort to a fella eye to eye with a brown bear.....

As a recovering hataholic, I enjoyed this tour of your collection! Nice!

Got the second Moderna shot last Thursday. No reaction what so ever. Arm wasn't even sore! However, I'm not sure what to do with this third arm!

Little Joe. Sure miss the little stinker.....

Got my #2 Moderna shot on Thursday. No reaction from either shot, other than a very small localized sore spot at the injection site. Gone in 24 hours. So far, I have not grown a third arm.....LOL Saddle up and go get your shot!

Many moons ago, I had a good friend in Alaska, who had a Jack Russel Terrier named Eddy. Eddy was an amazing little soul, and my buddy's constant companion. One afternoon I stopped in for "coffee and lies", and noticed that Eddy was not in the house. My buddy explained that Eddy had stopped eating and was unable to walk. It was 700+ air miles to Anchorage and the nearest vet.... He said that he had carried Eddy out to a spot and shot him. There was a long silence, and then he said, "I took that rifle down to the Yukon, and threw that SOB as far out as I could."

Had a similar thing happen to me. I said, "Sorry, I mistook you for a lady." That's when a **ll broke lose!

Cool pic.

I lived in bush Alaska for 25 years. Traveled a lot between villages in light aircraft. I learned that in an emergency situation, all you're likely to have is what is in your pockets. You sure as heck better have a knife, among other items.

These were out of production for many years. Interesting to see them catalogued again! I had an early example of the 66 that I thought would be a great practice rifle. Pretty heavy, and I found the extractor to be pretty weak - broke 3 or 4 times - so I stopped using it for practice. Uberti may have addressed that issue with this current version. Very cool, and mine was very accurate!
