I've got prayers in your name.

Aside from that, you know, "do, don't stew".

God bless you and your family,

+1 on "Seven Men from Now". Good movie; I own a copy and have watched it twice in the last year.

Here's a few I really like that weren't mentioned, and that you may not have seen. These are all available on DVD: -Dead Man w/Johnny Depp (Neil Young does the musical score) -Missouri Breaks w/Jack Nicholson and Marlon Brando -The Tin Star w/Henry Fonda and Anthony Perkins -Gunslinger's Revenge w/H...

The leather lace on things ruin the stock finish in no time.

My stocks aren't ruined, or even smudged. The lace-on also allows me to slip a kickeez recoil insert between the butt plate and the lace-on; super comfortable to shoot through the summer.

azmark, I actually had a EAA Bounty Hunter in .357, about 7 years ago; they're made in West Germany. It was actually a piece of junk clothed in SAA- looking metal. I remember the handgun fondly, as I could not shoot less than 6" groups with it at 50'. I rationalized carrying it when I went fish...

Oh, good, they aren't offering "What is a vacuum?" this semester- I can still claim ignorance...

Funny stuff, YK, thanks,

Old Savage,

That's a darn sneaky way to show off that Sharps carbine- man, that's great-looking! What caliber is it?

DennisD, Don't drill it- you'll regret it forever; you can use a lace-on sling/pad. There's two threads on this forum that I know of within the last couple months with a bunch of alternatives, including the levergunleather mentioned above. If they're hard to find, you can search on author "1x2&...

I tried it. I went fishing and shooting for a week and a half, relaxed at night, watched movies, played guitar. I was so sick of fishing by the second Thursday that I updated my resume on Friday morning and started looking for work. So for my retirement, I'd like good health. With that and my meager...

Driftwood,

Thanks for the background!

This is an excellent thread. I'd been cogitating over whether to buy a Henry. But I can't get over the brass receiver, the weight, the fact that the barrel and mag tube are not cast as a single piece, the existence of the forearm, the weight (I understand the originals were over 9 lbs.). ursavus.ele...

2ndovc and win92, Thanks for posting those pics! win92, it looks cold enough up there... A couple weeks ago, from the car, I saw, in a field to the right of the car, a baldy perhaps discussing the probability of lunch with a hawk; there was a rodent on the ground between them. The eagle was over twi...

and I finished in SECOND Place in my Category. (Unlike the guy who won, as he was next to last!)

That's how I'd tell it! He's lucky you were tired and didn't feel like pushing him.

Good story, bet you slept like a log that night, with an extra snort, just for making it through the day!

I was married in a pair of western boots- forget the brand... I wear Olathe now; slightly disappointed that they moved their operations out of Kansas. IMO they're good boots, but can't compare them to Lucchese; my brother wears the Lucchese's, but he buys the dress boots from his local Shepler's sto...

Yes, but these are not the same species of wolves that were here before being wiped out in the early 1900s. It's more akin to saying, "we're out of cows, go get some", and importing the musk ox. You could do it, but why would a thinking man be impressed? This is not reintroduction, it's &q...

You know, the simple straight-walled calibers to shoot the same load out of my revolvers and leverguns... for somebody trying to keep it simple...

I shoot .22lr, also.

This reminds me, I have a brand-new Lyman die set for .45-70 I need to put in the classifieds...

Dastook,

You might also give this one a look, I have this one, with a recoil pad slipped in between the buttplate and the cover:

No negative. One of the advantages of shooting .44mag and .357mag is to have a load that you can shoot out of your revolver and your lever gun. I develop the best load for my revolver and then shoot it out of both. Not using .38 and .44 special cartridges obviates the worry about developing the lead...

http://www.stevespages.com/page8b.htm Have you guys been to this site? Point Blank is the product I've used for years, though I have a program with more (read "needless") bells and whistles and that cost me money. You might give Point Blank a try. It produces the same 955.1 answer as poste...

Don,

I'm unclear regarding the handgun requirement- the regs are silent on that issue- I read that the cartridge needs to "generally" generate the impact that you posted at that yardage. Where's the handgun part come in?

Yo, wow! I really like the first of that second pair, with the "rays".

I especially like your choice of calibers, showing that they will do some good work.

Hey gang, I have an EMF Hartford in 44 magnum (awesome shooter, BTW); I'd like to get the forearm off for a minute, but it seems stuck, or I'm missing something. I've removed the two foreend cap screws and slid the cap forward, but the forearm, she no budge. Should I just pull harder, or is there a ...

Hi Pepe Ray, Good point- funny thing about open sights, that way. If the sun's on your left, it strikes the outside left of the front sight, pushing your aim to the right, and strikes the inside right side of the rear sight, pushing your aim to the left. They virtually counteract each other; the tri...

Howdy, I've got an EMF in .44 magnum, 24" octagon bbl. with bead front, semi-buckhorn rear sight. The front bead "appears" to be gold or brass, but try as I have, I cannot get it bright enough to spot from the other end of the barrel! Any ideas on how to get this sucker to shine? Than...
