  1. I hear a lot of folks saying that Wolf Match ammo is very good. I find that interesting in that other ammo by them, 7.62x39 and pistol calibers isn’t so great, but I am talking 20 or more years ago. Thanks for the info.
  2. Thank you @Widder, SASS #59054 It’s supposed to be a friendly competition but I am not sure whether semiauto is not allowed. I actually never asked except when I said “I have a Ruger 10/22.” the guys I was talking to all smiled and said “You will definitely want something better than that.” I have zero interest in building a gun, but I will look at Kidd. Thank you.
  3. A few days before the last Halloween some artsy craftsy store my wife lured me to had a few witches brooms positioned in the bike rack outside. As soon as I saw them the humor, smart***, sarcastic side of my brain that is hardwired directly to my tongue prompted me to say “Look honey, your Mom and some of her friends must be here.” She actually laughed, but the group of ladies standing in a circle near the rack heard my little quip and they all glared at me. Without missing a beat I said “I’m sorry ladies. I didn’t realize those were yours. My apologies.” I laughed and kept walking. My wife didn’t say a word until we were inside then she sidled up close to me and quietly said “You’re bad. Gimme a kiss.” Then she giggled. I never looked back to see those women’s reactions but judging by the outside temps dipping I think they didn’t like my joke.
  4. Sounds like a “Course” at a French restaurant.
  5. If I went to a restaurant and they served me 4oz of meat, a small potato and a little tiny bit of veggies I would leave and I sure as heck wouldn’t pay.
  6. Like the title says. Do any of you own a CZ 457 or Savage Mk 2, if so, how accurate is your rifle? I am planning to buy a factory made .22 bolt action for .22 matches at my gun club. My limit is $700. I already have a scope. I am interested in these two series of rifles. I am looking for better than .5” at 50 yards.
  7. A guy at the gun store said this to me today when we were talking politics. “I tell people that say ‘We can trust voting by mail’ how about you put $150 in an envelope and send it to yourself? No one wants to do that because they really don’t trust the mail. They’re just spewing horse $#!¥.”
  8. People live longer now than in 1957. I would stop complaining about fat people. One day a fat person might save your life.
  9. I cannot figure out this gun she’s wearing. Anybody?
  10. I found this photo. I have no idea where to get one of these. I just thought it was cool.
  11. A coworker of mine was wearing a suit on a work related flight from Los Angeles to Sacramento. He had this tie clip that looked like a Colt 1858 revolver. He got treated like he was a big threat with that little tie clip. He was interrogated long enough to miss his flight. He had to wait 2 or 3 hours for another flight. The tie clip was a gift from his kids. The TSA brain-trust took it. I found another one at Knott’s Berry Farm and bought it for him so his kids wouldn’t know it was taken from him. Knott’s Berry Farm is an amusement park that used to be based on an Old West theme.
  12. A friend of mine coming back from Mexican had his van inspected at the Mexican checkpoint in Tijuana. He went to Mexico to buy leather products to sell at a swap meet. A Mexican police officer told him to open the rear of the van and lo and behold there was one .22 LR cartridge. They unloaded his van and stripped it. Seats, panels, everything. They found nothing else. He was given a $100 fine, I believe and told to go home and don’t come back. He was told if they had found more ammo he would have gone to jail for a long time. He had to put his van all back together by himself and someone lifted his tool box. He never went to Mexico again. Me, I would have never gone to begin with. Too many horror stories about Mexico. EXIT: Also, I never use range bags or backpacks for travel. That is just asking for trouble.
  13. I find it humorous that the company selling that latch on Amazon is called “Vintage Technologies”.
  14. I saw a metal tool box that someone made into a portable grill somewhere online recently. I am going to have to go looking for it.
  15. I had a woman I worked with convinced that she could buy a trunk monkey from the Suburban Auto Group. I convinced her to call them. She did. She was not as amused as the lady that answered the phone was. I got a lot of dirty looks for a few days. Probably because every time she glared at me I burst into laughter. She was and maybe still is a brunette.
