    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    Hugh O'Brian, the actor to play Wyatt Earp as well as the Gunfighter John Wayne faced in the Shootist passed away today at 91. I fondly remember watching reruns of The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    "Jon Polito, the mustachioed, raspy-voiced character actor who squeezed both humor and surprising pathos from the many mobster and cop roles he played—most memorably for the Coen brothers passed away today". He was a very talented actor. Loved his performance in Millers Crossing.

    Advice needed - Akubra Federation IV

    I own two Fed IV's and have not had an issue with the crown tapering. You are lucky that you can go to the store and pick out the one you want. Like the others have stated, I have worn mine in down pours and snow storms and they hold up just fine. Good luck on just walking out with one hat....

    Well done sir. Did you use any stiffner on the brim or just distilled water?

    Anybody try to shape a brim using Hatshapers.Com

    I have not tried to shape a brim with the hat shaper, but I do have the open crown with out the add a brim feature that I have used to take out creases so that I could reshape them. I have had good luck with it and have found the HatShaper to be useful.

    SurfGent, those are some fine looking weapons. I have always found the Sig to be much more fun to shoot than the PPK....no slide bite. What year is that Sig? Kirk

    But back to guns, I will have to post some pictures later, but I just inherited a S&W Model 15 Combat Masterpiece with a 4" barrel. I had a 2" one years ago that I sold and have been kicking myself over for years.

    Akubra Zephyr review

    Very nice. I have the Akubra Capricorn. It's my first polypropylene hat. I love the fact that if I get caught in the rain I don't have to worry. I too live in a very humid area and find that breathes alright, just not as good as a straw. Of course not having hair, I sweat in anything in the...

    Original Stetson Handy

    I'm no expert on bowler hats by any means, but it reminds me of this hat worn by the stage coach robber Black Bart. Kirk H.

    You two look very dashing. I don't know about upstaging the MG, I think that you both compliment the car and vice versa. Kirk

    I have heard of them, but have never got to handle one. They look like a very solid revolver. And I am very partial to 6 shot snub nose revolvers. Is that a k-frame speed loader that you have with it? Kirk

    Not from a prison tower, but my right ear. I get that same look from my wife and my daughter too. I am now at the point that when I am working with long guns, I use both the foam ear plugs and the "ear muffs".
