Show us your Guns!
A now deceased friend of mine sold me a Oberndorf action, the model with the eagle over the breach with the Nazi swastika on its chest. I then proceeded to add a Timney trigger, an Argentine floor-plate, a Buehler style safety lever and a Lothar Walther barrel in 6.5x55 to the blend. Once I...- Oldsarge

Holy Grail Vintage Suit: Stroller/ Black Lounge Suit
I love strollers! They are a way of going semi-formal in the daytime but almost no one else will know because they look so much like a black odd jacket with a vest. Another fine thing about them is that the vest can be one of a number of different colors (depending on how formal the wearer... -
Double-brim adventure hats
Has a bit of a Homburg-ish look. Perhaps the lower hat has a bound rim? -
How to travel with hats
Yeah, twenty-five bucks for the can from Bencraft to hold one and wear the other. That way you are equipped with hats no matter what the weather at your destination. A felt and a panama . . . sweet! -

Double-brim adventure hats
Handsome? I think so. And its rumpled and functional look is part of that. Fashionable, of course not, but handsome is as handsome does. -

French Cuisine
Here in the South Bay, we've had a couple of French restaurants but none of them really lasted. I think it's related to the fact that a lot more Southern Italians immigrated to the U.S. (or at least the West Coast) than did the French. However, the Mrs and I took a river cruise up the Rhone...- Oldsarge

I think you need a skosh longer sleeves on the shirt, old man, but that is one smashing suit. Fine necktie, as well. -
FAMOUS suit w/ double-breasted vest gets NO love
Well, that would have been one reason for me not to bid on it. I haven't been a 38 since I was a skinny teenager and I was never a R. However, along with Doc I would gladly wear one that looked like it. -

Adventure! Fedora Lounge Folks in Action!
You get the same thing in Texas. Often the best trophies are taken in February-April. I've seen some immense racks outside of Junction. Unfortunately, the best ones seem to show up after I'm done hunting for the trip or when we're driving from one blind to another. Some day, though . . ...- Oldsarge

check out Will's new hat
At A Suitable Wardrobe. He's having a felt planter built for fall. I think it's smashing. -
Show us your Guns!
No doubt! However, 'serious social shooting' has the same effect on one's adrenal glands as being given the beady eye by a Cape buffalo . . . while standing in the middle of the herd! You don't hear the report and you don't feel the recoil one little bit, even with a .450 Rigby Rimless (or a...- Oldsarge

I've been to Chattanooga. What a wonderful little town (that's little by California standards). They have six colleges, their own symphony orchestra, opera company, ballet company, at least one legitimate theater, a world class art museum, a world class aquarium, a half-mile wide river through...- Oldsarge

Of course not. Gun laws only apply to the law abiding. Everyone but politicians know that.- Oldsarge
