I really, really want a 1917 and I don't care which maker it is. Now that I have a bit of money perhaps I should go looking on Gunbroker, et al.- Oldsarge

Well, we've got plenty of jobs in California in the various graphic arts fields. Heck, we've got plenty of jobs for anyone who can handle CAD or CAM. Digital is where it's at. Yes, I know, California has a 'terrible' reputation for gun laws but if you're a legal resident and take a hunter...- Oldsarge

Sigh! If only I had known about those cocking piece sights ten or so years ago . . . Instead I replaced the express sights with a vintage, all-steel Williams peep. It works a treat and is true to the period even if it isn't all original.- Oldsarge

Yup. Hunting in Africa is kind of like that. Up before dawn, spot and stalk all morning, eat lunch out of the back of the Cruiser, sleep for an hour or so on the grass, back to hunting, hit camp after sunset, shower and change for dinner then sit around the campfire until you drop off. Start...- Oldsarge

Giant Pith Helmet Thread of Doom
No, but if you frequent gun shows you occasionally can pick up a Kodiak double (with exterior hammers!) for a lot less than H&H wants for a new one. :D -

Somehow I cannot help but feel than any intruder would find the difference indistinguishable should he be on the receiving end . . . :p- Oldsarge

I had my grandfather's 97 overhauled and reblued. I haven't gotten around to a new stock, something that it desperately needs as he was about 5' 4" and I'm 6' 0". And I haven't fired it, since, either. Not sure I will. My son is the same size I am so I suspect I'll just get it stocked the...- Oldsarge

Grand place. We visited the royal palace there and were entertained by a performance of Mozart chamber music and Strauss waltzes in period costume. Quite lovely. And if you get a chance to take the train to Heidelberg, do so. My favorite German city. -

I just can't get excited about the 9mm. I want a cartridge that knocks the other guy down so I can make a quick escape. All a 9mm will do is kill him . . . eventually.:eeek:- Oldsarge

After sixty-seven years in SoCal, I've had about all the hot and dry I can stand. Let there be RAIN! It wouldn't come to us this year (again!) so we decided to go visit it. And since I've always enjoyed SoCal 'winter' this suits me just fine. And it's the ideal climate for bonsai . . . :cool: -

And for those who don't know, Portland is in the second part. And guys, Portland is to craft beer as Seattle is to coffee! Good stuff? Man! -

There's rain and then there's RAIN. What passes for rain in Portland a Californian would call a heavy drizzle. It doesn't rain often in SoCal but when it does we get 'bout half washed out to sea. The rain up here doesn't even justify a slicker or an umbrella, at least as far as I've seen. A...
