    Yep, he made up a new name.  He's been PerryJS, JSPerry, and other iterations.  This time Jason SP.  Banned.  Thanks for the heads up!  He uses a Proxy/VPN service to disguise his real location; but seems to originate near Lagos?  Typical 3rd Party Scam.

    dhqlyahf1 from Karachi has been banned, and his posts deleted.   I did not open his Valentine's attachment.  Who knows what that could do?   Just don't open attachments.  Don't do it.

    Howdy Ho Joe!

    I think Jackrabbit Joe be joshin' us.

    For the rest of the audience, the rules are:

    "- A pocket pistol is a small frame, fixed sight, pre-1900 design revolver having a barrel length of four inches or less. Pocket pistols must be .31 caliber or larger. Model “P” Colts, and clones and revolvers with swing-out cylinders are specifically not allowed regardless of caliber, frame size, or barrel length. Colt Model 1877 DA revolvers are LEGAL for use as pocket pistols. Pocket pistols may not be used as or converted to main match revolvers."... SHB Vers 27.4, pg 29

    Since y'all want roll it back to Men, Ladies, and BP, let's bring back rank points.  Raise the PF to 150.  You have to start stages prone under a wagon, jump over fences, and run 50 yds on a stick horse.  Don't forget you have to hit a bullseye with a tomahawk on the clock before you can fire the first gun.

    What about 1911's? There are lots of people with only 9mm (+P) since they are widely used in other competitive sports.

     

    1911 requirements are unchanged. However, as always, local Match Directors have the ability to institute changes in their matches.

    I'd lose the SDQ for having rifle hammer back on an empty chamber when walking from loading table to firing line.

     

    Speaking only about what you wrote, that is a no call if there's no round in the chamber.   If there is a round in the chamber, then an SDQ is warranted for unsafe gun handling, or moving with a cocked, loaded gun.  The same as any other time during the stage.

     

    Again, this is simply addressing your statement.   After you let go of the cocked gun and stage it, that's another matter.

    Can someone help me navigate thru the SASS website to find out how to find MONTHLY matches in different states whether Cowboy or Wild Bunch?

    Just spent 15 minutes trying everything listed and wound up at the beginning with no results. 

     

    This is SASS's "Cowboy" side of things.   What you need is on the SASS Wild Bunch Forum  https://wildbunch.sassnet.com/  You'll need a separate Login and Password there.

    I know it's a rare item but I'm looking to buy an original .45 ACP Luger as originally supplied to the US military for testing to see if the 1911 design or the Luger design would be adopted.

     

    Thanks for looking.

    Throwing a line out to see what bites. 
     

    Looking to buy a short stroked set of Ruger vaqueros in 45 Colt. Have a preference for a Bisley but wouldn’t be a deal breaker. Stainless and 5 1/2 inch barrel are also preferred. 


    Would like to know what was done to achieve the short stroke and who did the work.

    We keep saying it and have even made several threads about it in the past.  If you get a private message in response to your WTB ad, from someone you do not know. Especially a non-SASS member,  ASK us first.  We'll be glad to check them out for you.  We can see where they are posting from.  We can tell you if they are using a VPN to hide their location.  We can tell you if they are from India or Nigeria.  We can tell you if they seem to be another identity of a past scammer.  Ask questions!  

     

    Scammers usually don't last long, but in their 1 or 2-hour life on the Wire, they will steal what money they can.  Hit and run.  Whack-a-mole.   Be careful out there!

    Leaking Wet Tumbler

    The rubber gaskets have to be wet.  Some soap, or a bit of lube will help.  Then tighten the cap as far as you can make it go.  I use a huge metal adjustable C- Clamp.  It gives you extra oompfh!   Same thing with the other end.  I use Brass Juice, Strat-o-Sheen, and the pins.  I set it on 3 hours and go mow the lawn.  Dump it in a media separator, then dry the brass.  Done

    Searching for a story posted several years ago.

    Several years ago my brother Sawyer, SASS#32650 wrote a story about a horse drawn artillery march from Ft Sam Houston to Ft Sill.  Our father was one of the soldiers on that ride.  We've both gone through several computers and we've both lost the story.  Does anyone remember it?  I believe the title was "The Last Ride", but not 100% sure.

    This picture was probably posted with the story.

     

     

     

    That must have been posted a long time ago.  Probably on an older version of the forum.  Sawyer doesn't currently have any attachments in his files.  A search for "The Last Ride" only brings up a poem by Doc Nelson and a thread by Branchwater Jack.
