I can’t remember the last time I ironed anything! Over the years I’ve become a “dress down guy”. Shirt, jeans, a good hat and scarf and town shoes no boots. In going for comfort at 78 yrs old.

You forgot holster and sidearm.

[Credit Card interest]

Regarding stupid high interest rates on loans and credit cards...

 

No one is holding a gun to somebody's head forcing them use these things; more importantly use them irresponsibly.

Wanna talk about statins?  How about "the jab"?

Excellent points that merit their own research/discussion.

 

You are 100%correct.

[WTS 357Mag]

The reviews I have read on these all speak highly of this shooter. Neat concept. Smith has a winner with this one.

[Colt Monitor: The First Official FBI Fighting Rifle]

Eligible for C&R? 😀

[Jenorado wants a Desert Eagle]

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.

I use Matt's for non CAS bullets and have always been pleased with his service and products.

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.

[What was your first album...]

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.

[What was your first album...]

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.

[AI video of dead guy]

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!!!!!"

Fluted or unfluted cylinder? This model came with both.

[Owl Creek Bridge]

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.

[4 5/8 (4 3/4) or 5 1/2 barrel, what's your preference and why?]

3" revolver for carry

4 5/8 or 5 1/2 for cowboy (my difference is stainless for BP, blued for smokeless)

6+ inch for range, target and hunting

 

Semi-autos? 4-5 inch Nothing quite like a 1911 Government. 😀

["Hell On Wheels"]

Very well worth watching.

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.

[Lever Action Speed Loader]

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.
