Praying for more improvement.

BMC's quote of the day! "IF YOU HAVE NO CONSIQUENCES TO YOUR ACTIONS, YOU WILL PROBABLY NOT HAVE SATISFACTORY ACTIONS."

The world is indeed getting nutser.

HAR! HOIST THE MAINS!

I am very familiar with strokes and how they can affect loved ones. Keep you and the Mrs. in my prayers. What ever HE decides to do, I suspect that it will have a happy ending when the dust settles.

Time to drag out the wooden peg leg, eye patch, and dusty tricorn hat. Tomorrow is tawk like a PIRATE day. YE SCURVY BILGE RATS!

Oh! I thought you ..... Never mind.

You are gonna need this, maybe two.

Machines are taking over, and humans are obsolete. We eat too much, and make methane gas, all of which machines don't care about.

Thanks for the replies, folks. Gives me new views on the matter. Youse folks are the best reference spot in the internet.

Well, perhaps. But it is a dang fine rifle. And he has two sons that perhaps one day, will ask about it. I would like for him to be able to show them how old river runners did it in the distant past. Didn't say I knew how to use one.

So now Ruger owns Marlin Manufacturing. BMC is getting close to check out time. BMC wants his Grandson to inherit his Marlin 1894. Problem: BMC does not know if he is unloading an albatross on his Grandson, or a gift. Since Ruger took over, it appears that their first thought is to protect the Ruger Line (I understand that) and then make some additional bucks off the Marlin line. My guess is that at some point replacement parts will be needed for outstand Marlin production prior to Ruger's takeover. Who will make them, Ruger or after market production by independent producers? Any thoughts?

Little Bondo will cover it tho.

I agree Forty Rod. Kids. Just kids. Oh Well, Happy Birthday!

First of all, let me say that I know very little about AR type rifles, and their construction. Secondly I know very little about the fascination with the 9 mm chambering. So just out of curiosity, let me ask a question for my own edification. Why would not a .357 Magnum be a more favorable choice?
