CONGRATULATIONS! And it is nice to be happy for someone sometime! As I spend a lot of time in ER's as a EMT/First Responder, I have a tremendous respect and admiration for nurses!!! They often do more to calm a patient that the docs do. Of course the doc has other priorities.

A Collectible Firearm = any gun another fellar hast that you want. What a Collectible Firearm is not = Any gun you have that another fellar is willing to take off yer hands. While I agree in principle with most of what everyone above has said, I think Griff came closest to my feelings on the subjec...

Prayers up. Stay strong.

lthardman

Sincere condolences. There is nothing I can say or do that will erase the hurt, so I will hope that a few prayers for you and your family will do what I cannot.

Just a suggestion, but I would say send them a corrected copy with a separate note. In your note, tell them how you are the kind of person who admits when they made an error, and will do whatever it takes to correct it. Even if the "damage may be done," you are the kind of person who has t...

Its good to be reminded of ALL the people who make sacrifices for our freedom. Only some of them carry a gun. Prayers up.

Formby Furniture Refinisher has worked great for me. It's available at Lowe's and pretty sure other home stores. For an applicator, don't buy their pads... just use 0000 steel wool. Get some chemical gloves while your at it....it will eat right through nitrile gloves pretty quickly. It leaves the s...

Congratulations on a job well done. Its great to restore a proud shooter to its former glory.

lthardman

I believe you will find the front of the Circuit Judge cylinder to be completely enclosed by a shield. Yes, there is a shield, but those gases have to go somewhere. Back into the shooter's face? That would seem to be where the shield is directing them. Someday, maybe someone will do a review after ...

Nice, but I really love it when "cool" and "useful" can be used to describe the same item. Not so sure that is the case for a gun with 24 kt gold and ivory.

lthardman

That Taurus Circuit Judge discussed in the same issue got some pretty heavy criticism when it was last discussed in this forum. However, I am still very intrigued by it. I like shooting my (Uberti) Remington Revolving Cylinder Carbine, both as black powder and with a .45LC replacement cylinder. But,...

lthardman

Prayers up! I know you will be strong and keep a positive outlook for your sister.

lthardman

Its a big club.

I have a couple trapdoors, and I kind of like those sights. The model 1884 has sights that are an improvement over the 1873. I have one of both. I believe some early Krags I have seen had the same sights as the 1884.

Another way to make sure that well stops producing would be to transfer ownership to Congress.

I have two Liberty safes, and love them both. And, I suppose it is nice that Sam's will have a private label Liberty, although the JD name is a bit of a surprise. Don't get me wrong, I like Liberty, and I like John Deere. I even have a restored 58 year old John Deere MT in the barn. But, I feel a bi...

lthardman

Sincere condolences. Many of us have been where you are, but that does not take the sting out of the loss. Its just not fair that the creatures who know the most about how to love get so little time to teach us what they know.

D-Con works great, but be very, very careful where you put it and remember it may move. At my cabin, I put out D-con in the fall. The mice get into it and actually carry it to various places to make a little stash for themselves. Then, they die. But, the stash remains and your pets can get into it. ...

I saw a twin to that musket at the local gun show. $750, NIB. While that may have been priced too high, you got a heck of a deal. CONGRATULATIONS!

lthardman

I know this sounds pretty cynical, but the percentage of dogs who know how to live and love is ten times the percentage of human beings. Although the traditional handshake might be replaced by something that seems a lot less enjoyable as a greeting, I think the world would be a far better place if d...

Pokey, I am located about 45 minutes drive from Dick Williams. In fact, he has one of my old rifles now for some significant repair. You cannot avoid the MI sales tax (come on, we're broke. Our governor made sure of it) but if you need someone to visually look at something let me know. My experience...

It has been a few years, but I purchased a LeMat reproduction from Cabellas. There is a store in Dundee MI (where the tornado hit) but it is a good three hour drive from where I live. They shipped it direct, after I supplied them with the proper purchase permits several forms of picture ID, etc, etc...

lthardman

A beautiful brace. Makes me want to get out my cap and ball sidearms. I have a gift certificate from Cabelas that has been burning a hole in my pocket. Maybe I should creatively extinguish it now... By the way, I have had EXCELLENT experience with purchasing revolvers from Cabelas through the mail, ...

lthardman

Done. And I hope she is up and pain free soon.

lthardman

I guess you would have to say you got good news, compared to the alternative. I've lost some loved ones to melanoma. Good on you for getting it checked out O.S.O.K. I imagine you will be a 'bit uncomfortable' when they do some more drilling, and for that I will send a few words up north on your beha...

I have a Para Ordinance (now Para USA) P16-40, which as the name implies is .40 S&W. I purchased it used, and like it a lot. Very reliable accurate. I would highly recommend it.

Try "NOK OUT" multi-purpose odor eliminator. One of its listed used is for cat urine. It is made by a small company (Amazing Concepts LLC) in Beaverton Michigan, just north of my abode. It works. Deodorizes floors, walls, ceilings, carpets, fabrics, etc.

lthardman

Saying how sorry I feel just does not seem to cut it, but perhaps the prayers we will continue to send will help. Be strong.

lthardman

Thanks folks. I will be going up to the cabin today, spending some time in the woods, on the water, and may even salute the day with a blast from the mortar at sundown. Nothing like rattling the windows a bit. On the way, I have to pass by a favorite toy store that quite often has some old levers, s...

I once visited that museum while on a business trip. Very cool. As I remember, it was housed in a brewery, but that may also be why my recollection is foggy. I think they had one that had over 100 points!!! (I think they also said the buck was suffering from some kind of disease, though. And, I thin...

Always great to hear about a great kid. Or, in your case, kids. CONGRATULATIONS to all.

For me, it isn't even a contest. Hugo Montenegro with the music from "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly." "Silverado" comes in a distant second, and you have to like the theme from "The Magnificent Seven."

lthardman

BEWARE!!!! That sounds just like an e-mail I got. When you click anywhere on it, it downloads a virus and/or worm or some other little nasty onto your computer!!! I got hit with this in the early Spring, and it cost me $99 to get rid of it. Ironically, the text within the e-mail was advertising a vi...

lthardman

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU! It sounds like you are on a roll, and maybe a bear will cap the effort!

You are correct, Sir, and I was mistaken. Sorry.

lthardman

I have re-read the original post several times. Joel does not mention that the rifle in question is an 1860 Henry reproduction, but rather a Henry Big Boy. That could make a real difference here. Did I miss something? I fully understand the posts saying not to load the 1860 Henry in the fully vertic...

Like others have said, I get really turned off by incorrect firearms for the timeframe depicted in the movie. Also, movies in which everyone looks like they just stepped out of the shower and changed into fresh clothes hardly seem accurate.

lthardman

Have a great day! So, do we all get a piece of cake?

lthardman

Some close calls, but here are some of my favorites. I am sure I will forget to list some great ones: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Silverado The Outlaw Josey Wales Once Upon a Time in the West The Wild Bunch Open Range Lonesome Dove Appaloosa 3:10 to Yuma The Last Outlaw Geronimo Unforgiven Pale ...

When muscleing around one of my half scale cannons by myself, I can work up a pretty good sweat. But watching this video is amazing. Now these guys are in shape! I don't understand all of the history behind this amazing event, but it sounds like it is based upon an actual event in history. It takes ...

lthardman

Sorry you are "under the weather" (yet another expression. Aren't we all under the weather? I guess on the space station they are "over the weather."). I was once told that the expression ""sick as a dog" was coined because dogs, while great and loyal friends, will...

Best of luck to Y2K and the team. Hope the wind if favorable when their team steps up.

Marbles Knives actually split from Marble Arms several years ago. Since then, most of the Marble fixed blade knives you might have seen at attractive pricing have been imported. All of the folding knives were imported after that. To no avail, I guess, as Marble knives then declared bankruptcy. (Not ...

I just spoike with my friend. His son is doing well, and is now home from the hospital despite the one remaining bullet in his back. The doctors await more healing of the lung before risking anesthetic and surgery to remove that last bullet. The police have a suspect in custody. When my friend's son...

Very nice. Thanks for sharing. If I still had a horse, I'd give it a big kiss right now. Guess I'll hug the dog instead.

lthardman

I try to live by the rules. I even pay the tolls when no one is looking. But, this may be the proverbial straw. I certainly agree with the .22 LR votes, but then I'd have to find a friend who chose a reliable pistol, or even find someone with a 1911 who nodded off often...

lthardman

Hoping both of you had a great day!

Y2K, I feel like I know you through your Dad. He's real proud of you, and you have a lot to be proud of as well in him.

I wish I only had twelve candles to blow out. Instead, I need a fire truck to stand by and disable the smoke detectors.

lthardman

Done. Sounds like he is due for some better times.

I have never posted a prayer request before, but I just got some news that prompts me to do so now. I just heard from a business colleague and friend of 25 years. Yesterday morning, his son was leaving for work when he was approached by armed assailants. His son was shot twice with a handgun during ...

I find it real hard to part with a gun. I usually buy them and keep them. The most notable exception was a Keltec P3-AT. I could not shoot it well as it was just too small for my meat hooks. No problem with the gun, just the shooter. So, I traded for a Para USA LDA/PDA. I have been happy with the ou...
