I've been having problems with my health again and just got back here after a week or so away. I find the new format very confusing and lack the pewter savvy to do anything about it, if anything can be done. So, I'll say "goodbye." I want to thank all of you who've been helpful, especially...

"That wood looks illegal!!!!"

That forearm is stunning!

Rod WMG

I've been told that the primers can't be killed that way really. Supposedly, they are inactive for awhile and then dry out to be "love" again.

I haven't tested this, but I wish someone would (scientifically) and give us the definitive answer.

Did anyone else see the Bogart movie with Walter Brenan where they kept a levergun on the Bogie character's boat? I can't remember the name of the film.

The rifle was used sparingly, but Bogie shot out a searchlight with it at one point...with one shot!

Rod WMG

Ditto on the guys who're so impressed with those horns. I'd shoot him in a heartbeat!

I've said this before in similar ways in several places, but here goes: I think camo is helpful in some instances, as in turkey/varmint hunting. Not absolutely essential, but helpful. But I wear camo because the stuff I want to hunt in mostly only comes in that variation; in short it sells because, ...

A few years ago I watched that movie every day for weeks. I need to do it again.

I see this topic has been beat to death, but I have to quote Rusty in part: "In the house #4 bird or even #6 would be fine and not have too much penetration. From the distances you're talking about, inside most houses today whatever it hits is still only going to have a pattern of 3" or 4&...

Don, I always suspected you were a Taliban spy!

Rod WMG

"Are you a shooter or a hunter?"

YES!

I actually do like them about equally, but my health won't allow me t hunt, so I guess I'll say shooter.

Rod WMG

I wasn't excited about those shortened guns at all till I saw the pix. Wow! Nice looking levers.

Rod WMG

Okay, does anyone have a feel for what the second, smaller pistol is?

Rod WMG

Hummm...nearly five inches high at 50. I wouldn't have thunk it.
Thanks.

Rod WMG

Does he have a finger tucked back behind that holster, or is he missing a digit? I'm very sensitive to missing parts right now as my stump has ulcers and I can't wear a prosthesis, so I'm power chair bound.

Rod WMG

comal forge, if you want to sell that useless M29 reasonable I can be contacted at

You fix the...well, I think you know what I mean.

Rod WMG

I've gone a few rounds with those things...and LOST!

If I could, I'd grant that no one would have to endure that suffering.

Rod WMG

While I'm not in favor of refinishing a historic gun, I have tro say that .44-40 has fantastic wood!

They're both nice and you should cherish them, as it's evident you do.

Rod WMG

All else being equal, i.e., the "same" guns, recoil difference is largely due to bullet weight differences. If a heavier bullet is used, the gun will recoil more. While I'm nuts about the .44 mags, I strangely have no interest in a .444. Go figger. I am pretty partial to my stainless Guide...

Rod WMG

That's some really purdy wood.

Rod WMG

I've been told more than once that if a person/robber gets out of the house and collapses, "You'd bettrer drag him back in." I don't think that'd ever work because the evidence would reveal it.

Rod WMG

'Preciate that. I love such photos.

Rod WMG

Only experience with this brand was some .45-70 "Police" ammo I bought in Montana in 2005. It's good stuff I'd use for hunting elk and the like. Can't find it anywhere now here in TX or on the net.

Doubt that it helps you with .22 ammo, however.

Rod WMG

Well, I'll spare you the recounting of my injuries!

I figger anyone who's around horses much will have some wreck or problem related to them, some with long lasting consequences.

Here's hoping you heal fast and well.

Rod WMG

Just be sure whatever you get to kill that skunk dead the first shot--very unpleasant otherwise...for days.

Rod WMG

TR wrote about hunting in mocs. I've never done it, but I think, under the right conditions, it'd work well.

Now that I have only one leg, I can't switch heel heights witout a "makeover." So I'll have to stick to hunting boots of some sort.

Rod WMG

All I can say is my pistol gripped Browning M53 in .32-20 hardly recoils at all.

"So we were shooting at my BIL's place, after a while my old ear protectors got hot so I slid them off. "

Yet another effect of global warming!

Rod WMG

Though recovery will be a long road, so far the news seems all good. I'm very glad to hear that and add my prayer to the list

Rod WMG

And to think the Southern Sacramento mtns. of NM's Lincoln National forest will close May 1 due to extreme fire danger.

Rod WMG

All nice looking animals. I particularly like the 20 cows "rodeo horse!"

Rod WMG

I told my wife tonight that, if our dogs knew how much their frequent barking annoyed me, they'd probably cut it out just to please me.

Rod WMG

Lke everyone has said, "Real nice rifle." I like the receiver sight.

Rod WMG

I don't know nuthin bout my ancestors, but I'm mighty proud of what was accomplished by the founders of our nation...and very pleased to reap the benefits.

Rod WMG

What a beautiful rifle! Glad things worked out for you.

Rod WMG

Loading down the plentiful .44 mag brass seems to me to be the only way to fly. 8.0 to 8.5 gr. of Unique under a 240 gr. bullet is a mild load which should work very well.

A Catahoula Leopard Dog (Many can be rescued if you do a search). My best dog ever (don't tell my current Catahoula, Rex!) was a Catahoula/Bluetick coonhound mix that we found through Petfinder. Smart, obedient, and a natural hunter. I'd get another of those in an instant. Catahoulas are hunters and...

I believe I paid $900 a year or so ago.

I too have a hard time naming a favorite. Heck, I like the .30-30, the .45-70, and my .44 Marlin is a real favorite, but like woods walker, I really like the B53 .32-20 for small game and small deer.

Rod WMG

Glad it has worked so well for you guys. It wasn't always so. Midway lost my business for years over a bad customer service experience and I'm still not doing much with them if I can get it elsewhere. If I'm treated with disrespect, especially after being a loyal customer, I don't like to reward suc...

Pretty animal and very pretty rifle.

The relining of the 12 ga. barrel on my old Stevens was done quite a long time ago. No effort was made to hide the fact that it was relined and though a non-gun person probably wouldn't notice, the person reasonably familiar with firearms could see it right off--but he'd know anyway since he'd recog...

Remember when Skeeter wrote, "My Friend, the.357 Magnum"?

I have to comment on a couple of things said here. jnyork wrote: "Very simply, the liner is actually a barrel with very thin walls." And sixgun said, "Carbines or thin barreled guns cannot be relined as there is not enough meat left over after the drilling." I respect the opinion...

I lusted over several of the guns too, including the Rolling Blocks. But I was poor back then and couldn't afford a nearly $70 Luger artillery model or the much cheaper Remington rifle. The Colt Match Target Woodsman at $85 dollars was way out of my league. The several hundred dollars I paind recent...

Well, I bought a laminated stock Mosin a few years back for cheap. I wasn't prepared to like it, but I really do. It's accurate, has a decent trigger pull, and handy. I'm impressed with the caliber and cartridge. The safety is a bear to engage for someone who's as weak as I am these days, but is sim...

My "Truck Gun" is a Mosin Nagant carbine. $80 and who cares if its beat up. handy little rifle but packs plenty of punch though. Any of my levers cost to much to leave in the truck. Well, I'd carry a lever in a veeHICKLE, but I bought a really beat up Steyr M95 in 8X56R just for that purp...

I like the knife! Your dad is great.
