  1. Years and years ago I had the opportunity to shoot one of these in 357 magnum on a one hundred yard rifle range at bowling pins. It was easy to make hits at that distance. That said, I do not remember what ammunition we were using and I only shot maybe two mags. Quite fun.

     

    I have read way too many articles and watched too many videos bemoaning the "reliability" of these Desert Eagles in all calibers to ever care to personally shell out the $ for one. As previously mentioned... way too many other excellent choices in firearms today.

    200 Grains RNFP on top of 5.5 grains of Trailboss.   Whatever the OAL is when you crimp in the crimp groove.  Never chronoed it.

    Same here for all my CAS needs. All I have ever needed.

  3. Rugged Gear 2 gun cart. Can be converted to a 3 gun cart. Very good condition. Can bring to Prince of the Pistoleers in Lenexa, KS this June. $325.00

     

    Local pickup good too, not gonna ship this.

     

    First "I'll take it" gets it.

    Best described as a Jazz/Rock fusion. Four trumpets. Very different. I had all three of their albums, and still have a CD set that has all of them on it.

    I have several of his albums. Always fun to listen to. Watching old concert videos of his online, as a trumpet player, are pretty much insane.

  5. 1st 45 was Rhinestone Cowboy by Glenn Campbell.

     

    1st album was a truck driving song compilation or John Denver, not sure which.

     

    1st album I memorized all the songs on was Frank Sinatra and Count Basie, Fly me to the Moon I think.

     

    Yup, an eclectic mix.

  6. Interesting. Very surprised that was allowed in court. A victim impact statement from the deceased? If this was allowed before a conviction or sentencing. I can't believe defense attorneys weren't screaming, "Objection! Speculation!!!!!"

  8. A great short read. And perfectly fitting for a TZ episode.

     

    Ambrose Bierce was an interesting fella who wrote quite a few good reads. Check out The Devil's Dictionary for a glimpse into his sense of humor and wit.

     

    He met his end somewhere in Mexico, most likely. Details of his death unknown. Poncho Villa might have been involved.

    Can i suggest at least one of you tell those of us who dont know; WHERE is this match??  😄 

    Just about 4 miles south of Chapman, Kansas.

     

    A great range run by exceptional cowboys. Always a fantastic shoot there. Monthly or annual.

  10. A few folks I know who use these really like them. Doesn't fit my needs, but i'm glad it does for others... eases loading and might just keep some coming back shooting. My thumbs work just fine but I know arthritis has bitten many folks.
