I might look into buying a pair of those Paul Bond or Honcho boots.

Been awhile but speaking boots again, I notice that Olathe uses a Neoprene midsole on their boots. Is that a good or bad thing?

I was also looking at the 10x hats on this site...... http://www.riverjunction.com/Mens-Hats_c_177.html Also, any opinions on which is better between Stetson and Resistol? I was kinda thinkin of a Resistol like this...... http://store.resistolhat.com/products/productdetail/4X+CROSSROADS+-+BLACK+-+SH...

Yeah, they now call that the "Austral". It's a good Old West look, I think.

currently, I have a Stetson Bozeman...

Do any of you happen to know of any hat makers who make a hat which looks like the hat in this artwork.......

I recently saw some Levi's in Macy's and they are made in Pakistan.

Also, still considering buying a pair of these Boulet Shooter boots.........

Just curious about your opinions and both pairs are now made in Mexico but between Levi's 517 bootcut jeans and Wrangler Cowboy Cut jeans, which pair is the better pair?

How do the Hathorne #W312BC Hathorn Classic Cowboy boots compare to Olathe boots?

I sort of like the "Old West" look of the Boulet boots but was wondering how they might compare to Olathe as far as durability and comfort.

Do any of you happen to have any opinions on Boulet Shooter boots? I was thinking of buying either a pair of those or a pair of Olathe boots and was wondering which pair might be best..... http://www.bouletboots.com/index.php?page=48&MCatID=1&CatID=70&PID=167 http://www.shiplerboots.com/...

Currently, I have a pair of Silhouette rimless with the Crizal anti-reflective clear lenses and a pair of Cocoons clip on polarized shades for them.

Thanks, I was thinking of buying a pair in rimless Sillouettes. Speaking of shooting, I still have a pair of Ray Ban sunglasses in the Shooter frames with Ambermatic lenses from the 1980s. They aren't prescription but large frames.

For those of you who wear prescription eyewear, have any of you tried the new Drivewear polarized lenses from Transitions and what is your opinion?

For any fans of Stephen King's The Dark Tower and anyone who happened to get into the Marvel comic series last year, the story continues for 5 more issues starting March 5......

Have any of you read any books by David Gemmell? I like the 3 books he wrote featuring the gunslinger Jon Shannow. Someone should make a movie on those books.

I've heard there is a new Western film coming out this year called Appaloosa starring Viggo Mortensen and Ed Harris. Anyone heard any details and know when it may be released?

Speaking of lever guns, have you ever seen the 1987 movie Extreme Prejudice and know anything about the short rifle Nick Nolte's character used in that film? I recently saw it on TV.

Also, speaking of boots, anyone have opinions on Wesco boots? Are they worth the extra money?

Congratulations on your new Uberti. If it shoots half as well as my Uberti Flat Top Target, you are going to love it for a long, long time. Since you mention that this is your first SA experience, let me remind you of the only truly safe way to carry a Colt clone. Always carry with an empty chamber...

Before dark tonight, I went out back and shot it for the first time. Just the Cowboy Loads but used a leftover uncarved pumpkin from Halloween as a target on top of a brush pile and put 6 big holes through it. It was actually the first time I'd ever shot a single action and there were a few steps an...

For Christmas, my brother gave me this new Uberti Cattleman NM .45 Colt 4 3/4" after seeing me admiring it at the local gun shop. I haven't fired it yet but hope to soon. A couple pics I took.... http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y178/Aries68/001-1.jpg http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y178/Aries...
