Wrangler John is correct .. horses are a Way of Life. That means (in the long run) a new set of friends and people you hang out with. Not that your old friends won't come around or anything .. but you will be spending your time and money in a totally different social setting. Speaking of money - wha...

Obama made a speech at a private fundraiser last week in San Francisco, describing some blue-collar workers as "bitter", who because of economic woes, "cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them."

JimT

But not bitterly....

JimT

No sir .. no bitterness. I did not mean to sound that way either. But I do cling to my guns and my Bible.

For some good reading material, I suggest "BIBLE IN POCKET, GUN IN HAND" ... you can find used ones on Amazon for a couple bucks.

Let's see ... my generation and the one before it grew up chewing on lead painted cribs and window sills, breathing lead fumes from the gasoline and eating lead shot.

Now for something completely different, I recently read someplace an account of why movie cowboys used to 'throw' their bullets when gunfights were filmed. According to this account, in the really early days of movies a lot of the cowboy extras were real cowboys. Some of them had developed the tech...

Writing of cowboys in the 1880-1890 period --

Back in the late 70's and early 80's we had dog packs roaming the mountains around Oracle, AZ, north of Tucson. I have gotten into pack consisting of more than 20 dogs. This was in the mountains many miles from the nearest house. Interesting enough, once you started shooting them the pack would disa...

Thank you, 86er for the price updates. This may sound stupid, but I have got to ask. Are any vacinations required before you go to Africa?

86'r can speak about Mike's hand better than I. When I was with him he seemed to be doing well with it. He told me - and showed me - that it was working OK .. no feeling in parts of it and some fingers but he was recovering.

Don't put it off. If you keep delaying it you will never go. This year it's this, next year it's that. One day you wake up and you are sucking on an oxygen bottle and somone is changing your diaper.

There is legislation up right now to extend the CCW expiration date to 6 years. You might encourage your legislators to go with this one.

Someone should do a study on how many people were killed during or after calling 911, but before the police arrived. Then do a cover story in Time. One of the gun rights organizations has done something like that .. it's a book called "DIAL 911 AND DIE". I will have to look for it. EDIT -...

The thread about primer indications of pressure made me dig out some of the old stuff. http://www.leverguns.com/web/primer1.jpg Which cartridge had the highest pressures? http://www.leverguns.com/web/primer2.jpg The one on the left was a factory 210 gr. load fired in a .44 Magnum. The middle one was...

JimT

If primer flow is not a pressure sign does that make it safe to ignore it?, or what should I do about it? IF it is not locking the gun up or making it hard to rotate the cylinder, and IF the loads are well under Maximum, and IF it is not noticable unless one happens to look closely at the primers ....

JimT

In my case, it's the gun. I look at it as normal for it. I get really deep primer strikes and a little flow on any spicy load that flattens the primers. 110, 296, 2400, Lil'gun.... The same loads do not flow in other guns. I could probably stone the pin a little and peen the firing pin hole, but I'...

JimT

THANK YOU Joe!! That was great.

JimT

Primers are a VERY POOR indicator of excessive pressure. It is common to have "primer flow" when other conditions exist. It does not necessarily indicate high pressures. If you look at the primers from cartridges that blew guns apart, often the primer looks normal. Starting in the 1930's L...
