Well the tips and suggestions are working and the site is improving. Slowly I am learning some of this stuff but it wouldn't be without the help of friends. Thanks

Thanks, David. I copied and passed along your suggestion to the lady who is helping me get it running. This stuff is mostly Greek to me.

Thanks folks. Hobie. The package I have permits five pages so I didn't think a whole page for contact info was necessary. We decided we didn't want our home address on the site. We have no showroom or anything and we don't want folks showing up at our house just anytime. All visits are set up by app...

Well, I finally got my web site started. Man what a pain in the butt. I don't work well with computers. There is still work to do on it but it's a beginning. My work has been down hard lately. 2008 was the worst I've done since 1979. I'm hoping for an upturn. Well? Thanks for looking. Oh yea. You ha...

Just one more example of someones life being interupted by a bunch of "I don't like it so You shouldn't do it." folks. Until he does damage, who's he hurting?

I can see how the vests can be for warmth and comfort but I for one am glad we got over the tie thing. The cartridge belts make a fasion statement with a suit.

Season here in Ohio doesn't open until April 20th. However, I did hear my first gobble of the year yesterday morning ,so spring is here. Personaly I'd rather hunt turkey in the spring than anything else. Last spring I harvested turkey #23 for me and it happened to be the smallest I've ever harvested...

Years ago, my father would use a magic marker to identify the several shotgun loads we had while reloading. He would color the primer only. By what ever code you use, the shell is immediately identifiable even when mixed lose in the vest pocket. We mostly hunt with double barrels and often use two d...

Your 16 will do fine within it's limitations. Here's the one thing to remember about shotgun shooting. The shot, weather it is a #4, #5 or #6 is an independent projectile once the wad separates from the shot column. At this point it boils down to effective range of the shot. A #4 will have an effect...

Actually, I was serious. I'm pretty sure the arrow of light badge gets transfered to the uniform shirt. Above the left pocket, I think. I was thinking there was something else that transfered to the uniform or sash as well.

JReed. Call your council. It's their job to help you. But be careful. Dads that try to improve things usually never stop getting deeper and deeper involved. It's addicting. Kid. Kudos to 2.

Alright. I'm hip with the fire forming but not the COW. Do you cook it first and let it dry some?

Now, what does the cream of wheat do? Just a case filler? I'm lost here. I never fire formed anything.

By spring fed I hope that infers that it stays full year round. That's a nice feature. Most top fed ponds around here drop in the summer but the spring fed ponds are always full. 26 feet wouldn't be feasible here. Heck, my house is a full one foot higher out of the ground than what was planned becau...

We have had the beard gene running around our ridge for a good ten years now that I know of. Kind of rare. Well this hen is on my target list. I watched her drag and step on it the other day, indicating that it won't get any longer. If I'm successful, she would make the perfect candidate for my last...

Let's see. How do you explain snow to someone from so.Cal.? Hmmmm. How bout, it's like white lumpy rain but doesn't turn into an immediate mud slide. It piles up, kind of like ashes from great big forest fires, but cooler. And when enough of it piles in the ice, the ice cracks and vibrates, kind of ...

Sure there's water. Plenty of it right under our feet. Just drill some holes. I don't expect most folks to understand it but I had a wonderful day fishing in the outdoors, on a pond in the woods, with friends. No phone rang. No television. No sirens of life. Just peace and enjoyment. An opportunity ...

Gobblerforge

Puny? Naw. The smaller one did go back in the hole but the bigger one is huge by bluegill standards. When I fish for dinner, I don't throw anything but the smallest back until I feel the fishing is going good enough to cull. It's good to take small ones from a pond as well as big ones for the health...

I've played a little for years and years. I was always a drummer and then later in life picked up the guitar a little also. Can someone answer aquestion for me? I was playing with the guitar and harp and found that a bluesy song in G on the guitar is accompanied by my harp in C. How does this work? ...

With our weather, we don't get to ice fish every year. Most but not every. I used to ice fish a lot years ago when I lived further north. Now living 60 miles further south east it's a different climate. Not as much ice. I've found it difficult to find folks to fish with, and like most things,it's no...

Went fishing yesterday with the wife and a couple friends. The folks down the road have a nice pond that we can fish. The wife has ice fished once and the friends never had.

Thanks folks. The photo didn't really show the detail. We had a freezing rain for a day after the first snow and before the second.

Another question that should have come to mind earlier. Were there any rounds being head stamped prior to 1886. In the 1879 catalog picture it shows all seven rounds that Winchester was making at that point. I never noticed before but none appear to have a head stamp.
Gobbler

Gobblerforge

Got it. thanks. I thought the 38WCF headstamp started before and not simultaniously with the 44WCF headstamp.
Gobbler

Gobblerforge

I don't think you understood the question as I asked it. Sorry about that. I'm sure we can all agree that the first rounds that came in the model 1873 were 44 cal. But if I understand it, Winchester called the cartridge The "Winchester Model OF 1873" and not the "44WCF". Then in ...

Gobblerforge

Hello John. I have some questions for you. I read an article you wrote that you stated that Winchester did not start marking the 44WCF heads until 1886. If this is correct, then can you tell me where you got this information? The reason is I made a statement a while back, jokingly, that the 38WCF ca...

It's interesting about Thomas the Train. To a Train collector, it is a silly looking toy. To a 4 or 5 year old, it is the beginning to the continuation of our hobby. The ones playing with Thomas today will be the train collectors of tomorrow. Better get those "L" word trains going for him....

Thanks everyone. Sure, you all can come and play. Trains and leverguns. Hobie. No, I don't do TCA. I have been invited to attend several times by a few collectors here in Ohio. It just never happened yet. I assume you are talking about York? I have heard for years that that is the train show to see....
