Re: skinner sights? -opinions wanted-

I have a set of Tim's sights on my 1894 FG. I have no complaints whatsoever.

Tim is nothing but an upstanding person.

Re: Primer prices

just to throw my $.02 in, I bought 3000 Winchester LR primers at the Indy 1500 gun show this past weekend for $35.00 per 1000. To put this in perspective at the May or June 2008 1500 I paid $120.00 +/- for a case of 5000 WLP. I guess I'm set for a while, untill I need some primers for the lower I bo...

Re: Which Lever Gun Do You LIKE the best ...

Easy question. My Marlin 94FG .41 Magnum,compact and easy to carry and I shoot it better than anything else I own. The .41 mag out of a rifle is good deer and hawg medicine too. They haven't printed enough money yet to part me from this rifle. :) I couldn't agree more. I'm now working up loads with...

I joined the NRA this summer at the Indy 1500 gun show. For Christmas presents this year I signed up (with their blessings) my three brothers. I know that I will renew my membership and I think my brothers will also. They are in descending order, retired Navy officer now working in supply for the Ma...

Maybe because I am an oddball, I like .41 Magnum. I don't have any reason in particular, I just like it.

Re: POLITICS - WHAT IS YOUR POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY?

Where your Personal score meets your Economic score on the grid below is your political philosophy. Based on the above score, you are a Liberal-Leaning Populist . I also ask, What is a Populist? 60% Bob Barr. That doesn't suprise me, I have voted Libertarian for the last 4 Presidential elections.

I don't know how my wife and I have done it but Feburary 7th will be our 28th. I guess we are to stubborn to quit each other.

We also had our first grandchild December 1st.

all said and done 1980 was a very good year. And as Joe Walsh said; Life's been good to me so far.

Congratulations to all.
