  1. HAHA Tell them that I am a Credentialed Police Chaplain so if I get arrested I would be a great Trustee. HAHA
  2. I left 2 messages with the salesperson who left the message on my cell. When I did not hear back from her, I left a generic message, then sent an email. Hope your inside sales person is not the same lady. Thank you, Scarlet....by the way .....we are signed up for the SC State and have our accommodations at the air bnb you gave us. I'll touch base with you in a few weeks to get a plan together....me and your other 300 friends who will be at the match.
  3. Has anyone else had a difficult time getting Taylors to return calls and emails? I got a message last week on my cell phone that a rifle I have been waiting on for over a year is in and that Taylor's needed to hear from me to verify that I still want the rifle or they would sell it to another customer. I have left 3 voice messages and sent an email over a period of 5 days with no response. This has not been my experience with them in the past. Is there some issue I should be aware of? Mac
  4. I purchased a Browning High Wall 45-70 to start long range shooting at side matches. Are the tube scopes seen in old westerns, ie Outlaw Josie Wales, SASS approved? If so, where could a person purchase such a scope and what is the approved power. Old eyes do not do too well with the hard sites at long range.
  5. I need Mustang Dave's contact information Please +PM me. Thanks.
  6. I nominate Whiskey Hayes for all of the reasons given by others above. He is a strong, decisive, yet fair, leader , who is a huge advocate for the sport we love.
  7. I put Lee Gunslinger in all of my CA revolvers. I found them to be quite a bit lighter than Wolff. Putting a leather washer lightens them a bit more.
  8. Thanks, Branch, but that link is to the same 2021 information. I have been unable to get to a 2022 page for the GA State.
  9. I have been unable to find any information on line about the Georgia State Championship for 2022. Am I missing something? Thanks, Mac
  10. Does anyone have any experience with Tecovas boots? Most of the reviews are excellent, so I thought that I would give them a try. I am interested primarily in the fit. The website says that the sizing is like street shoes. Is the correct?
  11. I'll take a bucket or box.....Thanks. Mac
  12. Old jocks never die.....you play like you practice. I practice with my match guns. I shoot duelist, have small hands, and my pistols have the lower competition hammers. Have been unable to find .22s exactly like my Uberti El Patron Competition models. If they made them and they were readily available, I would certainly be in the market. Thus the need for the the barrel insert, etc. so that I can shoot my match guns. I shoot 38s in competition, but I have .45s which are set up and handle exactly the same as my .38s. The Taylor's kit works with .45s.
  13. A few month ago I asked if anyone had tried Taylor's .22 conversion cylinder and barrel. It has a barrel that slips into the barrel of your .45 and a .22 cylinder. Sounds like a great idea for practice purposes, but does it work? Anyone?
