I liked it. Considering that Oriental music is based on completely different intervals( 13 instead of 8 ?), I thought the musician was pretty talented. I will agree that the intro was a little long, but they had to set up the sampling. And I like Mongolian throat singing, too. Hu rocks! Choctaw

IIRC, Jackie Coogan's situation prompted the passage of a law preventing the child's parents from spending proceeds earned by that child.

Resealing the top of holsters
Choctaw Jack replied to Bullet Hole Kid SASS#81025's topic in SASS Wire
+1 to Rip Snorter's fix. Work the Barge cement into the delamination as far as possible,let it dry and then press the layers back together with as much pressure as you can. Edge dressing and burnishing compound( gum tragacanth from Tandy or Weavers) and burnish it well with a bone or hardwood burnisher, and you should be in good shape . Choctaw -
Wustoff and Henkles are both good brands, but the industry standard in meat processing , and arguably, food preparation is Forschner, otherwise marketed as Victorinox. They're made to work well all day, and they take a very good edge without a lot of work. This ,of course, is just my opinion. ( After over 50 years as a butcher, using Victorinox exclusively).

ISO: CCI Blazer ALUMINUM 45 Colt Cartridge Cases
Choctaw Jack replied to Choctaw Jack's topic in SASS Wire Classifieds
That's great, I'll take'em! I actually found a few more at the range, so that helps. Weather sounds good, but who knows, this is still NM. It can change in an instant. Hopefully not. See you next weekend. Thanks! -

Hopefully the weather will co-operate. That should be our season opener. See you there! -
ISO: CCI Blazer ALUMINUM 45 Colt Cartridge Cases
Choctaw Jack replied to Choctaw Jack's topic in SASS Wire Classifieds
I drill out the primer hole and superglue a piece of pencil eraser in place to keep the wear and tear on the firearm to a minimum. I also powder coat my bullets (I think the next ones will be either zombie killer green or safety yellow) to draw attention to them. This combined with the aluminum case should help keep me out of trouble. Choctaw -

Thanks for the suggestion, Eyesa. But the aluminum won't wear off with use ..... -

That's exactly why I use them. After one close call, these make for easy I.D. -
Looking for some non-reloadable 45 Colt cases to build my own snap caps. I would like to have 20-25, but any quantity would be appreciated. Found some at our local range, but I need a few more. More than happy to pay for postage, and a bit for your trouble. Let me know what you've got. Thanks, Choctaw Jack

To those Pards who read this Post

There is a buzzard roosting site about 6 miles away in Aztec, New Mexico. A stand of very old cottonwood trees standing right on Main Street. In the spring when the young birds are learning to fly, the sky is filled with circling vultures. If you didn't know any better, it could be a little alarming. Choctaw -
Double chocolate cake donuts. Chocolate cake with chocolate icing. Or ,in a pinch,chocolate cake with sugar glaze.

What is a good ball powder for .45 Colt? W231?
Choctaw Jack replied to Pat Riot's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I've used W231 exclusively in 45 Colt as long as I've been shooting CAS. No plans to change. At lower (cowboy) velocities , it leaves some residue. No big deal. I've also shot lots of .45 acp using W231. Due to the smaller case capacity( I think!),it burns much cleaner. And yes, HP 38 is the same powder. I use it with no changes in my loads. -
I believe Unique may cover most if not all of your bases.
