    Oh delicious! Please, pictures! Pictures!

    Spectator Shoes

    Perhaps not contraband but a walk on the beach to check out the young ladies should get you some interest, once they see those!

    Spectator Shoes

    As an example of the old saw about everything old becomes new again, Allen Edmonds is just introducing this model with the same features. A bit pricey, I admit, but perhaps in the coming year . . . For next summer's heat wave, you understand! ;)

    This fall I will be in the market for my first fur felt city hat. I am looking at a charcoal Akubra Sydney to go with a black suit, a navy blazer, etc. Is it a recommended value for the money? Would there be a better choice? Thanx,

    Show us your Guns!

    Though I have more rifles than anything else because of a decade-long passion for Africa, my real love is shotguns. I imagine that there will be very few more rifles added to the safe but double guns? Especially with hammers? Oh, mercy!

    Loungers' Pets

    The best cure for the loss of a pet is to get another. After we had to put down first my wire-haired pointer and then my son's beagle we went for about two years without a dog. That won't happen again. I've already decided on the next breed and though we hope to have the little fireball...

    Binky, I got my walking out hat from Orvis. It's a fine loden green but it's not tweed. However, they are heading into their fall season and may include some tweed hats for those with daydreams of driven bird shooting in Scotland. Give them a look. Also, Cabela's has been know to carry...

    Safari Express rifle pic thread

    That doesn't surprise me. For a couple of generations, now, Americans have just taken it as a given that rifles must be scoped and that any rifle that won't group into a minute of angle is worthless. This is nonsense, of course, but there you are. At some time during those gentlemen's careers...

    Any one like Flying Boats?

    I love the Lake. They were in manufacture until recently and are readily available on the used plane market. Sigh, someday . . . http://www.flickr.com/photos/spmcfarland/3442854059/ But since I can't afford one yet, I collect shirts with flying boat images on them, instead.

    Suit Quality Assistance?

    May I suggest that possibly Kyle's question was not what it would bring on ebay but what it cost new? I think he's trying to find out just how good it really is. So I'm going to weigh Rue and Maxx's responses against Tomasso's speculations and think that it's a pretty good set of threads...

    Paddy, Damn, man, that's a fine looking avatar! The fish should jump into the boat just to get close to you.

    Forbidden items in my home...

    Yup, herbivores are natural food animals. They eat leaves and grass for those of us who can't digest leaves and grass ourselves. Very noble of them, don't you think? :confused:

    Forbidden items in my home...

    One of the reasons I hunt is to take responsibility for my own meat. If I'm going to eat it I should be the one who kills and butchers it. Naturally, this isn't possible 100% of the time but I do make the effort. It's an ethical thing . . . And woodchuck ought to be delicious. They're...

    I must tip my pith helmet to a man who properly appreciates and shoots through peep sights. Well done, Eric.

    That's 'cause you never had to hump one all day. Those things were solid and reliable but heavy? Man! Now don't get me wrong. After twenty-nine years of dealing with the damned things, I whole-heartedly hate the M-16 and its offspring. But they sure were easier to carry . . .

    So, I got me this Fez see.....

    My grandfather was a Shriner and I remember seeing his fez in its glass case. I wonder where it got off too. I seriously doubt that Mother has it anymore. Not that it would matter. He was a very small man and there is now way in Hell I could get into a hat of his.

    Forbidden items in my home...

    Particle board in any form is definitely out of the question. When we had our garage completely rebuilt, our contractor showed up and saw the pile of chip board for the cladding and was furious. He lit into the lead carpenter with language I'd never heard him use before. The walls were clad...
