I got my dad's Marlin 336 in .35 Remington. That has a spot of rust on it because he died after his last elk hunt with it in Washington and he did not clean and oil it. I may get it re-blued...someday.Also got a .22 Winchester semi-auto from my grandfather. I wanted the old lever action 73 - I think it was 38? something. He gave it to my cousin who promptly sold it for God knows what - he was/is a jerk. STL Suomi -
Many names got changed by immigration officials. My Grandfather 's name was Kaarle Kuste Antipoika Rovia.. Immigration changed it to Charley Gustav Anderson and dropped the family name off completely. Grandmother's name was Brita Johanna Johansdotir Lilsunde that became Hanna Johnson Lilsunde. Another interesting item. Prior to 1903, Finnish people were classified as Asian. A blond haired, fair skinned, bluer eyed, female Dr from Finland challenged that in court and the judge ruled that if we were Asian it was a long time ago and we then became European (except our language which is n

After the Russian Revolution there was a attitude of fear that perhaps Russian Immigrants would act up in the US. Many Russian immigrants (some already had papers and were citizens) were deported to Russia. Another shameful period in history. STL Suomi

I think this fellow may have been of Finnish descent. A bit light hearted though. Avoid the chapel, too much excitement. STL Suomi

Y'all ever make a chili burger?
St. Louis Suomi SASS #31905 replied to Alpo's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
When we lived in Kansas - 40 years ago, the lunch room served tacos the best they knew how. They place the taco fixings in an Ice Cream Cone. My kids thought that to be quite amusing. I thought i to be quite clever - make do with what you got. :-) STL Suomi -
Which 45 ACP is the "Ruger" of dependability?
St. Louis Suomi SASS #31905 replied to bgavin's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
SR1911 and a RIA 1911 in 10mm - flawless operation. I also have a very old 1911 for Auto Ordnance and another from old AMT in .45 ACP - all of which go bang when I pull the trigger, extract, eject and load the next round without fail. I have had the two .45 ACP for over 13 years and would never trade or sell them. I may have been lucky and got "good" ones, but they are like the old Timex commercial - "they take a licking and keep on ticking" so what's not to like. The Ruger took a box of shells to break in - I named it the Katzenjammer - after the first 50 rounds - it is uns -
I used to like Jello. I still like Jello (cherry flavored) with sliced bananas, or if it has fruit cocktail in it, but Jello - lime flavored with shredded carrots in it got the best of me when I went to the university. No more in my life unless at gun point will I eat that. Ring bologna - my dad liked it. It was inexpensive so it appeared more frequently that I liked. Haven't had it since I left home. Strange, my little sister loved it - go figure. I used to love chicken. Roast chicken my grandmother made or my mom made. Somewhere along the line in the university I found a gre

Foods You Enjoyed as a Kid
St. Louis Suomi SASS #31905 replied to Wyatt Earp SASS#1628L's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
We didn't eat out much as a kid. I used to get pasties when we we to Menominee. Sometimes we would get strawberry frosted donuts at the Woolworth store in Marinette., WI Favorite foods were venison and noodles. I loved onion sandwiches. When the smelt ran, I could eat a wash tub of them. And I really liked the leftover corn meal mush sliced and fried (Like Polenta). Mom would make sugar and water syrup and fry the mush in butter after slicing it up and it was great. I don't think many folks have had those items. Fish figured prominently in our diet (deer too). Fish was for free and a -
The .380 Automatic was introduced by FN of Belgium about 1912 and was designed by John Browning. The cartridge has achieved world-wide acceptance and has even been adopted as the standard pistol cartridge by several governments. One reason for the rounds success is that it is the largest practical cartridge that can be easily adapted to small automatic pocket pistols. These handguns tend to be of blowback design, simplifying their construction. As chamber pressures are particularly limited in such an action, ballistics fall far short of the 9mm Parabellum, but are adequate for many self

I wonder if the bill she proposers would have stopped Cain (had he a firearm). I don't think so. Cain didn't need a firearm to commit murder. The weapon was a heart that was ruined by Lucifer, not a material object. STL Suomi -
