    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    No pics, but my London Fog fly-front raincoat that this morning's driving rain went right through.

    This Kimber Ultra Carry has been seen here before, but the El Paso Saddlery Tom Threepersons holster is new. Wonder if EPS has ever made a Threepersons holster that small before? I also had the same custom grip maker that did my Kimber grips (shown above) make me a set of “Paladin” grips for...

    Alpha MA-1 Stench Ohhh My!

    Got this tip on TFL a few years ago & found it to be a great solution. On hats I have sealed them in a box with crumpled newspaper for several days - it pulled the smell out into the paper. Once or twice I had to change the paper and reseal for a few more days. Always worked though. I have...

    (KNIVES) Let's see some sharp pointy objects

    Thanks Mike! I'm betting the $3 I paid for it beats Academy's price - a pretty nice knife over all.

    (KNIVES) Let's see some sharp pointy objects

    Here is the whole knife with the mystery logo, if that helps.

    (KNIVES) Let's see some sharp pointy objects

    I picked up a few knives out of a “knife box” in a shop the other day – most unremarkable. But I found this tiny (almost to the point of useless) Sheffield interesting – cannot find any info about it (or another one like it) online. Well-made, but nearly impossible to open one-handed)...

    I'm pretty sure that is Sir Anthony Eden, for which the Homberg is alternatively named.

    As my friend says, "I have everything I need, except for just one more___________________ [hat, jacket, gun, knife, etc.]." Words I live by.

    Famous People in Flight Jackets

    The late Martin Milner as Off. Pete Malloy wore a leather duty jacket during Season 1 of "Adam-12." Until he used it to shield a patrol car window from a suspect armed with a shotgun. His quick thinking sentenced him wearing a cloth jacket for the rest of the series.

    I'll bet every one of those thin-ribbons is a Resistol! Dolly Parton and Porter Waggoner being welcomed to the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo, 1970. https://utsalibrariestopshelf.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/z-2521-c-592.jpg

    Famous People in Flight Jackets

    How about a famous person, Richard Boone/Paladin, in a [35 years before the age of] flight jacket?

    I've had good success removing Cosmo with Goo Gone cleaner and also leaving the stock packed in cat litter for a few days.

    Well, this won't down down a buffalo, but . . . here's an early Colt New Service, .45 Colt, factory nickel and MOP grips, 5-1/2” barrel with El Paso Saddlery double loop holster and gun belt.

    (KNIVES) Let's see some sharp pointy objects

    The blade is a little different, but I have seen a couple of these knives offered as an "ink scraper" or "ink eraser." https://www.rubylane.com/item/167844-12587/J-Joseph-Rodgers-amp-Sons-Ink

    New El Paso Saddlery Street Combat holster to tote my Colt Super 38. IMO one of their best "modern" rigs. You can’t beat the quality of EPS holsters – well, once you actually get them (Midway had this one in-stock). I am still waiting on an EPS western holster I ordered in April – it should...

    New grips for my Ruger New Vaquero. This gun came with factory wood laminate birdshead grips, which are not bad, but too “modern” looking for a cowboy gun. I first tried a pair of black polymer grips (shown below), which was a better look, but the fit was not the best. So I had a local grip...

    Love the Ithaca M-37 as a field gun - and my favorite police shotgun as well.

    Righting a Wrong. My first duty gun was a pinned & recessed S&W Model 65 that I bought new in 1982. I hand-polished it to a mirror finish, replaced the hammer & trigger with combat ones, had an action job done, and painted the front sight red. Then I did something stupid. Fancying myself...

    THE MALLORY MILE

    Having worn those very uniform hats for many years, I'm 99% sure that what my Mallory was - and I bought because there were no vent, badge, or strap holes.
