    Any writers?

    Jack, please shoot me if I'm a yes man, but... ...that cover is both appealing and simple. I really like that - it states its case outright, and does so in an artistic way. Not only does this appeal to a visual crowd, I believe it appeals to an intellectual crowd. Cheers on an excellent...

    Guns and shooting advice?

    Weaver was the name to which I was referring, but :arated: to the Shotokan Punch!

    In Almost Every Picture #7

    *I didn't see this posted anywhere, so I hope I'm bring something new to the table. In Almost Every Picture #7 "In almost every picture #7 tells the story of a Dutch woman whose life is seen from the point of view of a fairground shooting gallery. The chronological series begins in...

    Combining seperates

    Two pair of the infinitely versatile trousers would be gray wool with black and blue check, and gray wool with black and brown check. You can match those to nearly any tweed jacket, and very many solid jackets. They also offer an excellent contrast between darker colors. These are...

    Man! I wish you wouldn't have told me that! :eek: Honestly, I would have run up the old credit card had I known! It was at Scheels about a year ago. It was the civi model (4+1, fixed stock), but when I was looking at it, they offered an extended magazine and an order on the collapsable...

    Your favorite movie quotes

    Broders (2004) Michael: "I will always love you. That is the only truth that remains. Life is neither right nor wrong, good or bad. But I love you. That's all I know." Probably one of the most powerful movies I've ever seen in the theater.

    Brylcreem

    Boy, I don't know, I really like the scent of Brylcreem. It's subtle and sweet. [huh]

    Suits with lighter trousers

    I believe the subject is discussed here: Pinstripe coat w/solid color trousers And briefly touched on here: Sport coat and jeans?? I think you could start a new thread, but it's just as well to leave it here. [huh] It's a good topic seeing as fall is rolling around and it's easier to...

    Show us your Guns!

    I was referring to the M4 carbine, but kudos on the trench gun! I was looking at one of those at my local sport store for around $350 used. Ah, if I had the money, it would be in my collection (I need a new 12ga anyway). You know, honestly, I want to try out the 460XVR. If I were going to...

    Guns and shooting advice?

    There's a name for this stance, although it escapes me at the moment. That's what I was taught as well, by a career police sgt. during my CCW class. It's more aggressive, you have better aim, and you're less likely to bend backwards as in the isosceles stance; not to mention you naturally...

    Does anyone wear a sharkskin suit anymore?

    I own a 3-piece sharskin black and white (looks gray from a distance). Unfortunately, I can't fit into it lately. Here's to more exercising!!

    Suits with lighter trousers

    Guttersnipe, just wondering if you could expand on those trousers: are they repros, actual period articles, etc? And approx. what year are they from?

    Show us your Guns!

    Unfortunately, no. Both firearms belonged to a set of brothers, each of which did their own handloading. That being said, I believe the typical range of bullets for the .500 is from 400 to 510 grains, and the typical velocity is something like 1900-2300fps. I know since the release of the...

    Suits with lighter trousers

    Although I think it's a good look for the period, I would suggest sticking to something a little more modern for a number of reasons. To put together a suit such as those posted, and to wear one around town, you'll be crossing into costume wear. Worse yet, the costume won't even make enough...

    New sherlock holmes movie

    I, for one, would be a member in a matter of moments. Perhaps I should start a club of this nature myself...

    I'll tell you what - I've fired two Smith 500's: an 8" barrel and a 13" compensated barrel all tricked out by the factory. In each case, that beast gave a mighty kick (for godsake, the grass under the bullet parted with the blast)! I put a nice crack in a 1/2" steel plate at 25 yards. The gun...

    Argh! DIY Advice?

    Another bit of advice for anyone trying to dispose of used motor oil - Call around your local auto parts stores - no kidding. My O'Reilly's Auto Parts, AutoZone, and Advanced Auto Parts (to name a few) will take my used motor oil for FREE. Sometimes the clerk will take it from me for...
