That’s a lot more punishment than anybody actually does to their rifle.

I knew him enough to shake hands with him, but I can’t say that we were close. Most folks don’t know about the tragedy that occurred forcing him out of the Border Patrol.

I felt so bad for him and I think it really humbled him.

Scott Tschirhart

I’ve pretty much settled on 6 gr of Unique for light loads with 240 gr machine cast bullets and 7.5 gr of Unique under the Keith bullet.

Scott Tschirhart

The new flattops are excellent guns. The ones I have messed with (particularly my .44 Special) shoot very well.

Scott Tschirhart

Kinda scary! Glad nobody was hurt.

Scott Tschirhart

I question the wisdom of calling any weapon an “assault” type. Better to call them all self defense weapons. This is part of the bigger problem of letting the fear of what people might think control what we might say. I’m not sure I care what people like that think. We better, they vote. I absolute...

Scott Tschirhart

These days I’m leaning toward a .357 carbine over the .30-30 simply because I load .38 and.357 progressively and the power difference in full house .357 loads is not as much as you might think.

Scott Tschirhart

No issue with folks putting whatever they want on their levergun. But how do you put it in the saddle scabbard? This Skinner sight slides into and out of the scabbard easily without snagging and after I put a dab or thread locker on the adjustment screw’s it maintains zero.

I think fold are trying to keep their employees, I know that we are having some trouble with this.

I think they are trying to be open about this and I respect that.

Scott Tschirhart

I am very reluctant to advise anyone who I don’t have a very close relationship with regarding any aspect of a personal defense gun. One of my siblings I can speak openly about such things. Another of my siblings I will never engage in any such discussions. Be prudent about this. We may be called to...

I’m betting that being in the presence of our Lord would not easily be described with words.

There was apparently a great number of different cartridges which must have caused a logistical nightmare. One of the raiders from Pancho Villa’s gang was carrying on the Columbus New Mexico raid was a Winchester 94 carbine chambered in .25-35. It is displayed on the wall of the train station. I ima...

Scott Tschirhart

Very nice!

This was before I met Miss Kathy. I know better.

I was at Thunder Ranch and fixing to go into a shoot house. Clint set up the scenario. He told me that this was my neighbor’s house and I had seen men breaking in and grabbed my rifle. I could hear her screaming for help. I asked Clint “am I sleeping with her?” He said “no.” I backed off from the ho...

Scott Tschirhart

I’m disappointed that Chester didn’t volunteer to shoot one of them!!!!!

Scott Tschirhart

I didn’t see flattops for many years. However, lately they seem to be coming out of peoples’ collections and are finding their way into local gun stores.

Scott Tschirhart

Nice!

Scott Tschirhart

Jim I have a Bowen conversion in .44 Special and one in.41 magnum.

But I’ve got two of these flattops in.357 and I won’t have them converted.

Scott Tschirhart

I love those old ads. Thanks for sharing.

Scott Tschirhart

Some of these early guns are still pretty good.

Scott Tschirhart

I doubt that could do this today. But it’s the right way.

Smith & Wesson is doing a great job on these newer revolvers. I’ve got a Model 69 (.44 Magnum 5 shot on an L frame) that is really well put together with longevity improvements that are really smart.

Walt is talking about me.

But the real reason is that the .45 Colt doesn’t need to be improved.

Walt wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2024 8:33 pm My solution to that is to avoid TVs and to never go to movies. I have no reason to watch people pretending to be someone they're not.

I’ve got nothing against actors or any other legitimate profession.

Scott Tschirhart

I’m definitely gun Amish.

But I let everybody scratch their fleas however they want to.

Oh, I’m big enough. I often forget how much space I take up.

Scott Tschirhart

Many actors used to train so they would look good on a horse. That’s because there used to be a lot of people who actually worked on a horse and knew the difference. Burt Lancaster showed how to use a Sharps in “Valdez is Coming” Tom Selleck did a great job in “Quigley Down Under.” But the actors di...

Scott Tschirhart

An interesting story with some unusual stars.

But it kills me that they didn’t teach the actors how to actually use a Sharps rifle!

But the takeaway lesson is to count your bullets!

Scott Tschirhart

It does not but the ones I have handled shot to the sights.

Scott Tschirhart

Good move. I think the more people who enjoy their God-given rights the more difficult it will be for the lefties to try to take it away.

Scott Tschirhart

I was in another shop yesterday and they told me that they had a three day approval on a suppressor.

So suppressors are moving off the shelves much faster now and it is encouraging more people to purchase them.

I doubt if very many people know who Thell Reed is, Scott.

You may be right Jim. But I know.

Scott Tschirhart

I feel bad for Thell Reed. No father wants to have to go through this.

I don’t know if she deserves to be found guilty. I’m not on the jury and I didn’t hear the evidence.

But I feel bad for Thell.

Scott Tschirhart

Hate to hear this.

Scott Tschirhart

Dang! That photo is awesome!!!!

Congratulations!

Scott Tschirhart

I don’t even understand why suppressors are regulated in the United States

Scott, when you submitted electronically, did you go through a kiosk like the Silencer Shop ones?

Yes, I used a Silencer Shop Kiosk.

Scott Tschirhart

I did my submission all electronically. Went well.

Scott Tschirhart

Scott, what are you going to use as a host? What is your intended use. Just curious as to what others use theirs for. Thanks, Paul Paul, I own a number of suppressors. This particular one will be used on a little bolt action.300 Blackout. I reckon I’ll shoot whatever from hogs to deer to varmints w...

Scott Tschirhart

Yes, I was surprised. But I submitted on February 14 and was approved on February 28.

Trusts are taking much longer than individual applications.

Scott Tschirhart

Forcing you to buy insurance in order to exercise your Constitutional rights sounds as illegal as a poll tax to me.

Scott Tschirhart

Now might be the time.

My approval came back in 14 days. I have heard of applications being approved in four days.

Scott Tschirhart

Yes . Took the photos yesterday afternoon.

Scott Tschirhart

I suspect that some Blackhawks are accidentally more accurate than others regardless of the chambering.

Scott Tschirhart

And a pretty lady.

Scott Tschirhart

I use them interchangeably in my revolvers and leverguns. No issues.

Scott Tschirhart

Come to think of it, I haven’t been to a gun show since the onset of Covid.

They have one here in SA this weekend but I just don’t know if I have that much interest

Scott Tschirhart

I had an early Kimber that was reliable and accurate.

But the ones I have tried in recent years have been a mix. Shame too because Kimber really takes the sharp edges off. I sure like that.

Scott Tschirhart

It shot even better after running some rounds through it.

The terrible thing is I shoot this little gun better than I shoot the FA 97
