If these are new unopened bottles, I will take them and make arrangements to be picked up at EoT.
PM me for payment preference please.

When I hunted the .243 was a great choice for me. I took lots of coyotes and deer (white tails and mule deer) with that gun and one deerless afternoon, prairie dogs. Every now and then I'd change it up with a 30-30 lever gun. Nothing special but both worked quite well.

I would almost rather watch The View than halftime shows at SBs anymore. Almost. I'd almost rather jab myself in the eye with a fork than watch that idiotic crap.
A friend told me he quit watching at halftime and watched How the West was Won. Now why didn't I think of that? 🤔

Do you pards carry your 1911's cocked & locked?
100% of the time.
When I carried a 1911 it was an all steel 5 inch full size model. And I preferred the Milt Sparks Summer Carry inside the waistband holster with it. The 1911 is thin enough that it carries quite comfortably that way.
Currently I am down to only one 1911 model, and that is a wild bunch gun. A couple different 1911 models I'd love to have for CCW though but l have not been able to find them in quite some time.

When I turned 18 I bought a Marlin 1894 .44 mag. $185.
When I turned 21 I bought a 4 inch Smith model 19, nickle (or maybe stainless) .357 mag. I then immediately bought a Ruger SBH .44 mag.
Had traded/sold both the Marlin and Smith off somewhere in my 20s. Still have that Ruger.

Back in college biology lab a student held a Petri dish over the salad bar in the college cafeteria collecting airborne bacteria samples for all of about five seconds. The nasty crap that grew out of that Petri dish was beyond disgusting.
I've had food poisoning twice in my life. Both times because I ate at a buffet somewhere. One was Chinese, the other one I do not remember. Never again.

Generally OWB for me. On occasion IWB.
Some years back, however, after a hernia surgery I took to a shoulder holster as I did not want any extra weight on my belt line. I found that that has more uses and a comfort level that I was pleasantly surprised by.

A Cody worked Taylor's '73 is a great rifle. I've had two of these for years and they are fantastic performers. This will make someone an excellent competition rifle.

I like the idea of the new Mountain Gun, I just wish they would make a .45 Colt model.
Here's to hoping the 45 Colt model MG happens.
I had one years back. Sold it. That was a bad decision on my part.

Yeah, that price was a bit of a shocker.
$2200 would buy so much more in other guns that are already tried and true.
I already have a Pedersoli Lightning in 44-40 so what else do I really need anyway? Lol. I do love me a 44 mag though. Kinda liking the new Smith 629 Mountain Gun with NO LOCK. 😀

Bourbon lovers
in SASS Wire Saloon

Agree 100%.
I have been drinking bourbon for years and really can't tell much of a difference between a $30 bottle and a $50 bottle. Some difference, yes, but not enough for the price difference. Some of my favorites are priced at $27 and $44 per bottle. That said when the price (theoretically presuming quality) approaches $85 to $100 per bottle I do taste a difference. Quite a difference sometimes.
Recently I did have an opportunity to taste a $250 bourbon. The words incredible and amazing don't begin to describe it. I will not be paying that much for bourbon ever unless I win the lotto so that was a treat.
Scotch now... I do taste quite a difference between 12 year old and 18 year old.
