There's a nicely scanned PDF copy of "Hell, I Was There" up on the Internet Archive. It's also available in several other formats including plain text.

No one wants too, and we hear lots of jokes and snarking about the "procedure." For the last decade, I have encouraged friends and family to get it done - don't put it off. Finally, two of my close friends took my advice and went in. Too late.....both have colon cancer. :cry: Chemo starts...

An excellent photo of a beautiful collection. Thanks for sharing!

Carrying on old traditions is one of the best ways I know to pay our respects to those who came before. It sounds as if you'll be getting a son-in-law who will keep those traditions alive, too. A perfect way to spend the day.

I made every piece except bought the tube magazine and the extractor and used a rifled barrel blank. http://i170.ph...
