    reet, Regarding mixing it up a little. The whole point of the classical education was that you had the tools to go forward and continue your education on your own. Folks with such educations tended to be "renaissance men" who continued studying things all their lives. People without the...

    Smith and Wesson Model 22 Revolver .45 ACP

    Here's a good link. http://www.hipowersandhandguns.com/Corbon%2045%20AR%20DPX%20Ammo%20Test.htm The .45 ACP can be fired in these revolvers and headspace (rest) on the case rim. You can see how the edge of the case mouth is wider than the bullet, it rests on that "ledge". What it...

    Smith and Wesson Model 22 Revolver .45 ACP

    To sum up. If you want a new revolver with a bright finish that matches a classic, vintage, issue revolver (aside from the internal lock) of the 1st half of the 20th Century, these may be a good choice and are available in some states where the originals may not be. You can still get the...

    Classic education

    The difference between the "teach how to think" and a true Classical education lies in the structure. As Miss Neecerie's posts point out, you can't "learn how to think" until you have been exposed to basic facts and information (rote learning) and then learn how other people thought about...

    Why were the German's referred to as "Huns"???

    Escargot always reminded me of chewy lawn clippings sauteed in wine sauce. Which I can get from my Honda anytime I choose. :D

    Smith and Wesson Model 22 Revolver .45 ACP

    If a new handgun is not on California's "safety list" it cannot be sold in the state. Just another hoop to jump through with no real positive benefit.

    Smith and Wesson Model 22 Revolver .45 ACP

    Though it's common now, Kimber was one of the first manufacturers to put "custom" features on their production 1911's. Now it's the non-modernized pieces that take the looking for.

    Smith and Wesson Model 22 Revolver .45 ACP

    Several guys over on COW have bought them as "Indy guns". They all report being pleased with the action and finish. They are available all over the online auction sites and are now on the Cali DOJ approved list. 5-1/2" 4"

    A Cornucopia of (hair) Combs

    On a serious note, I wonder, if one of the ladies contacted them, if they would like to send the Lounge a full set of photos and documentation for posterity, given that their impulse sort of dovetails with the Lounge. I'm looking at you Miss 1929. :D Speaking of articles, if you took your...
