Steve: It is a bit of a can of worms. I sure wouldn't try to carry in Kalifornia unless I had a good legal team lined up pro bono. I also respect the fact that Utah's permit requires much more training as well as live fire than Oregon's, which simply requires attending a three-hour class.

Just got this from my congressman, and it sounds like good news: On November 16, the House passed, with my support, the National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity Act (H.R. 822) by a bipartisan vote of 272 – 154. Similar to how states recognizing drivers' licenses issued by other states, this bill requires...

Dang varmints trying to cripple your stock! Oh that's loooowwwwwww!

That's one nice whitetail. Nice work.

Pitchy: Another finish option would be to go over the pine with epoxy and fiberglass or kevlar. Your sidecar would then be weather and bullet-proof -- and you could also take it fishing.

Bill in Oregon

Pitchy: Looks like you could rock a baby to sleep in that thing.

Sorry but I can't help wonder what Col. Klink would think of it ...

Shasta, how are you liking your Uberti '76?

Bill in Oregon

Perry: Sorry to hear of your tribulations. I just don't think it is right for a company to distribute products without carefully testing them, especially when we're talking firearms. Uberti usually does a little better than most, but they have had problems with their Winchester 1876 lever guns.

Bill in Oregon

Turnkey: That 76 is sure a fun rifle. For a long "sticky" thread on problems with both the Uberti and Chaparral versions, go to CAScity.com where they have an entire forum dedicated to the '76.

Every time I stumble upon the plans I got from Jimmy Woods for one of his horseless carriages, I think of you. You have the skills and the tools to build one, and I don't. Anyone else out there dream of building a simple, tiller-drive horseless carriage with bike tires and Briggs and Stratton engine...

Did you see the CDNN prices on the Chaparral 1876 lever guns-- under $600!

Another brand to consider: Prison Blues. They're actually made by prison inmates here in Oregon.

I'd much rather have a G&T than anything with Scotch in it.
Yech!

Great photos. Love your Uncle George's gaiters. We don't have enough gaiters in the world today.

Earl: Granddaughters! I want one!

Wow, what a purty girl!

Had not heard of Hinson. The author is a retired USMC lieutenant colonel.

I didn't know the LeMat was ever produced in carbine form. Was it?

That Deere is sweet! My first tractor, if you could call it that, was a little 1949 Gibson with a 9-horse rope-start Wisconsin engine. My current machine is just the small Mahindra diesel, built by Mitsubishi heavy industries. I'd love have an older American tractor someday. Here's that Gibson with ...

UPS causes too much aggravation for me. I always ship USPS priority insured.

Pitchy, the Curio and Relic license is easy to obtain. Just some paperwork you can download from BATF, 10 fingerprints and a copy to your sheriff. If you have a local dealer who treats you right on receiving firearms for you, I'd skip it. As to Blackbern, I haven't dealt with him, but his father Ken...

Blaine, that's just one of the things that makes AAA such a bargain. The dang computerized keys are now too bulky to fit in my wallet.

Nice drift! I actually asked on another forum about "discreet" deer loads, even considering cast loads in a .22 Hornet for head-shooting a little meat buck without getting the neighbors all in a tizzy. Season is closed now, so the question is moot, but I think a .32-20 or even a .25-20 is ...

What, no mention of hellapeenies and vyeenies?

You're gonna love that ghost ring Blaine.

Well now I am even "greener" with envy, but that's Oregon Ducks green!

Good advice. Just be sure to pick a unit that has an easy-to-use pinpoint feature. Most of them do. My cheapo Garrett doesn't.

Bill in Oregon

Very interesting stuff Earl. I haven't lost many cases to neck splits over the years. In fact, I've probably melted more cases with a torch! Tempilac sounds like the answer.

Here's mine on a relatively orderly day:

I've had a couple of Besses, a cut-down Miroku that was a wonderful shooter, and a Pedersoli. I don't think Besses get enough credit. They can be reasonably accurate out to 70 yards or so with a patched round ball, and most pattern very well with a shot load once you find your gun's sweet spot. If y...

Steve: You're a sick man. I can't even find my bench under all the stuff. It takes me 20 minutes just scraping the clutter off to locate the bench surface. Reloading is supposed to be aggravating and frustrating, and you are making it seem like a pleasant, orderly, and even productive exercise.

We sell a lot of LCPs and TCPs at the Sportsmans Warehouse I work at part time. Invariably the comment from buyers is that "Wow, these aren't much fun to shoot are they?" I recently bought an LC9 and am very pleased with it. The trigger stroke takes come getting used to, but I find it accu...

Pete: Good on you for that 71!

OSOK: Very nice Youtube!

We've had .73 inch of rain over the past 72 hours in Medford, Oregon. It kinda went from shirt-sleeve to parka over night. YECH!
They've had three inches or more on the coast, though, and that means the fall chinook salmon are surging into the estuaries. YUM!

Pitchy: Love the "Under attack" photo. That's a low-down snake-in-the-grass varmint who attacks a feller taking his monthly bath!
I had forgotten about your matchlock with the timed cock and pan cover. Very nice!

Bill in Oregon

I too use an older RCBS Rockchucker. I like the Redding T7 turret press though, and Redding is still made in the USA. RCBS presses are now coming from China.
Earl's Hornady progressive is an outstanding system.

Mike: Promise you will show us the results when get her into the field. You have immaculate taste!

Carbon steel for me too, although my current game knife is a Buck Vanguard Zipper. By the way, here is something a little different: the knife one of the skinners used to butcher my Hartmann's zebra in Namibia in 2007. He would pause from time to time and sharpen the blade on a handy rock. http://i2...

Pitchy, seeing what you are up to is like that first cup of coffee in the morning, with the dogs scattered around in front of the fire: one of life's pleasures. Stick around, my friend!
