      Henry side loading gate carbine!!

      Not at all. 240 grain slugs at 1300 fps are very mild and the high velocity stuff at 1900 fps actually makes little difference. As a matter of fact, I made the mistake of letting my 11 year old granddaughter shoot it last night and she's very skittish about recoil. Now I'm being told I need...

      Henry side loading gate carbine!!

      Here's one of the first Myself and my dealer were recently sent communications indicating the actual release date wouldn't be until the 25th of this month. Evidently not so since I picked mine up today. I've been one who has been after Henry to put out a brass receiver with a round barrel...

      ROAD TRIP TO CLARKSVILLE

      Did that the first time I met Rick and left without a portion of it. Just a fair warning.:spend:

      Why don't FFL's know gun shipping laws?

      In many cases this is why and many have a damn good reason for it. One local FFL who knows the laws to a tee will not accept from a non FFL due to past instances of people shipping to him without him having any knowledge of who the recipient is to be or why it was shipped to him in the first...

      $850 Hornady Ammo Plant!

      Local shop sells both red and blue. Anyone local with a problem can call and I will meet them to help with setup on either. Experience makes both much simpler to work of course but some folks just have a problem if things aren't perfect out of the box. It takes a mechanical mind to be a safe...

      ROAD TRIP TO CLARKSVILLE

      Rick's pretty good about giving refuge to our Canuck friends from the far north.:draw:

      Tonneau Cover - Feedback please!

      I ran an Xtang snapless soft tonneau for 12 years and it served me well. Simple to open or close and simple to maintain. Hard covers are OK but if you need the use of the whole bed they all have their problems. Here's a link to what I had and I would buy the same one today if I needed...

      Keltec p32

      I have one I've used when it just isn't appropriate to carry something larger and as a full time backup other times. The best advice I could give is to shoot it regularly to avoid problems with such things as pocket lint accumulation and other silliness. I've heard some people have problems...

      Lee factory crimp dies

      If I order on Monday morning, things are in my hand Wednesday afternoon between 1 and 3. Hasn't failed over many dollars of product and many years.

      Hornady LNL or Dillon 650

      The point was to have owned both and still advise to get the one that feels the best for the individual rather than let a voice on the inter webs make the decision. You seem to have not gotten that part. Not everyone can be happy with the same thing. If that was the case there would be no...

      The older I get...

      That little 20 double is more brutal than my old 1906 Star Leader 12 double ever thought of being. :cool: That's OK since I don't plan on using either all day like I do the ARs and my 1911s.

      favorite powder for .45 acp AND 38 spl?

      I used 231 for 30 years or so until a few years ago when I used the last of a can at the bench and discovered that was the last I had. I thought I had another 24# keg stored but was mistaken. At that time there was no 231 to be found but I did find 6 8# jugs of titegroup during my travels and...

      The older I get...

      I haven't seen anyone mention a change in caliber preferences yet. In my younger days I seemed to seek out anything that was deadly on both ends. 10 gauge shotguns, 458 Winchester, 500 and 600 nitro in rifles, and nothing smaller than a 41 mag in a handgun. When Steve Herrett and J D Jones...

      Trying to find peace after a loss.

      This is my motto and it works. Its foolish to worry about things you can't change so concentrate on the things you can. In 2013 I buried 9 family members and close friends, close enough I had to at least assist in making final arrangements and this on top of being a cancer survivor since...

      So I went to bed on a Friday night...And when I woke up I saw this.....

      A couple hundos in this day and age? Really? You get what you pay for and for a couple undos you're liable to get a bunch of stuff you didn't pay for. Even crack isn't cheap these days. BTW grey hair is recognized as being dignified when properly quaffed. I got no idea what a feller would...

      Goodbye Les Baer purchase hello new Mower

      All low end mowers are manufactured in one of a handful of plants and all these plants are part of the same entity. Many share parts no matter the name on the hood. A cheap zero turn with a stamped steel deck is even worse junk than a cheap lawn tractor no matter the so-called brand name. One...

      So I went to bed on a Friday night...And when I woke up I saw this.....

      The physical part........well sorta, but there are things that make up for it if you've done your part. BTW there is an old saying that pain is just fear leaving the body. I ain't skeerd o nuthin these days!

      So I went to bed on a Friday night...And when I woke up I saw this.....

      Clear liquids only after the wonderful concoction such as water, broth, light colored popsicles and so on so I would guess Coors Light might be OK from one standpoint since it's little more than water to start with but I wonder what the alcohol would do with the sleepy time juice. Don't think I...

      I've met Indy. Never seen a shirt with a pocket big enough to hold that many hundies.:scared:
