A big thing in counterfeiting right now is older coins. A huge percentage of the Morgan Dollars and Trade Dollars for sale through eBay are fakes. It takes some education to spot them. Specific die markers are "tells". Too many trusting souls are getting parted from their money. Ebay has a reporting mechanism, but they are no longer responsive to it. Machines have replaced humans there, and they've been programmed to maximize eBay's profit and let the buyer beware.

Los Pistoleros de Santa Margarita - the Santa Margarita Gun Club at Camp Pendleton monthly match. The matches at Pendleton were unique among other cowboy matches, in that the Marine Corps rifle range offered the opportunity for some very challenging stages. The rifle targets for most stages were set out at 75-100 yds, with at least one stage with rifle targets at 200 yds. There was always a team event at the end of the match. Because of the stages' tough, challenging, and slower nature, there was only time for 4 or 5 stages per match. Most stages were shot with only one or two guns.

When I finish with mine, I bring it with me and leave it in a waiting room. (I'm hanging out in waiting rooms way too much lately)... take off my address and leave it for others to read. The magazine format is better for that than the large newspaper-type ones we used to get. I kept the real early ones.

And here I thought it was a kitchen utensil for slicing veggies thinly. But, the stuff comes out all mushed up when I try to push it through the strings!

"We lost one of the old Los Vaqueros Shooters, Dirty Dave Rudabaugh, today Sept. 13, 2022. He was always fun to shoot with and a good shooter. He won the Modern category at Winter Range, back when it was a category. Ride well, old pard!" - The Butcher Dirty Dave Rudabaugh, David W. Glenn

Standing Stone Arms might be real but there's nothing to say that Kibe is them. There's been a couple of scammers on here before using a gun store's name and FFL number, but money sent to the name and address the "person" provided went somewhere else, and the buyer was stuck.
