Hey! I won page 84! Thanks Jeepnik.......OK, who's buying?----00

Sixgun · Post by **Sixgun** » Wed Dec 22, 2021 8:23 pm

Jay...that boy of yours is baaaadddd looking...also, being young and in the service makes him doubly baaaddd....

And thank you, you are right.....I thank the Lord everyday for my blessings......although I have no idea what big money is, I live comfortable always having what I needed and most of what I've wanted. Like you, I used old stuff and maintained it while the other jerks were whore hounding in the bars and pushing a weeks pay up their nose.

We all here on the P.I. thread are pretty much alike thinkers, except Old Savage.....HE is a true "Mr. Big".

You think I'm gonna bust on mom? That's what I vented to you guys! You take mom and Kristy, put them together and call it an army. For real, my wife is not afraid of nothing.....one day I'll tell you about the black woman who was gonna kick mom's Yorkie one time.......believe I already told you guys about the bro that called here looking for my daughter when she was about 14....whew! when mom gets mad, watch out.....you don't mess with her kids or dogs.....me? I'm expendable.---006

Well, headed down to the dungeon...gonna put the scope back on the Realtree Anaconda.....maybe sell it....crazy money out there.....----Double o Gunny and Single O Jay and Buckshot Six, 3 and 1/2" mag GK and 9 shot low brass Fred (.410)

OldWin · Post by **OldWin** » Wed Dec 22, 2021 8:48 pm

Man! You got it. I ain't won a page in forever. Now, if I was one of these new age whiners, I'd be screaming how it ain't fair and that everyone should be a winner.

Nope.

I'm heading down to my dungeon too. Kristy hits the hay early. I can't go to bed that early. I'll wake up at midnight and that will be it.

And, you are right about people. Most are really stupid.
The reason they want money is because they think what they buy with it will make them happy.
Happy ain't got nothing to do with money. As long as you have a roof over your head and 3 squares a day, you have what you need. Happy comes from IN YOU. Nothing can MAKE you happy.
I'm sure to most people I don't have a whole lot. But to me, I have everything. I've had a great life, and am very lucky.
Well.....maybe that 55, 94, and 95 you were talking about.

Ain't had a Colt 45 in a long time! The malt liquor.....I've had Colts in 45 since I was a kid.
Well....I had Colt 45 when I was a kid too.

I'm sitting here smoking Kools and watching Shaft.

Nooooo! I'm watching The Great Escape. Drinking 45, but no Kools.

Yea Jayster.l.that Colt 45 Malt liquor is some wicked stuff...I drank it for about 20 years, slugging down two 16 ounces everyday at lunchtime then drove back to the plant.......I'd kill a couple of cases a week. That stuff will give you a good buzz...in fact, a little more than a buzz....a stupor.

You got yo 45 Auto and yo Malt......sheeeeeeeettt.....what's that other thing, an old radio?

Is that one of my Winchesters on the wall? Oooo...wait, I don't have any of those receiver sights...all mine are tang...Pune tang...or Lyman's....

Hey, I have this Colt Anaconda Realtree made in 1996 only.....it's somewhat rare.......only has maybe 200 rounds out of it....matching 2x7 Redfield scope, original soft case and box....all the paperwork along with the rear sight that can only be put on when the scope is off.

You want it...I'm tired of looking at it...I'm thinking $1,000 but will settle for less.----006. If you don't want it, I'll put it back for a rest.---006

Model 55...check out the tight wood to metal fit, excellent wood, excellent blue....original tang sight...very little use...blue dissolved on the receiver.plus, it's a takedown.

No question for me. I have a much softer spot for the Germans than the Japs. The regular Whermacht grunts anyway. They were first class fighters under horrid conditions. They never whined either. Had relatives killed in both theaters, so that isn't it. Just have more respect for the Krauts.

Well, I see I set someone up again! And that someone doesn't give me squat...

No malt liquor here, unless ya think bourbon counts? Of which a customer gave each of us a bottle the other day. A bottle of 1792 Kentucky bourbon. Meh, it's ok but not great.

In school, we decided to try and get into the national forest and camp over spring break. SNOW kept us out as the road wasn't passable. We tried lots of times to break trail, full size Ford, Land Cruiser, Chevy S10, my Toyota pickup, guess what went farther than anything else before we had to hook up and pull it back out? A Subrau Brat. Just light enough to get on top and go, kinda like that Panda.

OldWin · Post by **OldWin** » Thu Dec 23, 2021 7:15 am

I had a buddy that had one of those Subaru Brats!
We were standing at the top of this hill/bank, the top 6 feet were straight up. He got a run and came up over with that thing mashed to the carpet. You could see the whole underneath of that thing he got so much air. The ground shook when it came down.

Another time he and I was in it at the top of this sand pit wall. It must have been 80-100ft high. There was a lip and 4ft drop at the top. We "decided" we could go down it.
When we drove over the edge, it hung up on the belly and teetered there just like in the movies. All 4 wheels in the air. We couldn't open the doors, so we started rocking ourselves front to back in unison. Lemme tellya......when that puppy nosed over the laughing stopped. We were looking straight down and were lucky the sand was soft enough to keep our speed somewhat checked. We still hit the bottom pretty hard.
I seem to recall that thing didn't last all that long. Can't imagine why......?

I wish we'd had cameras and video more than once over the years.

Subaru Brats

if only the Japs would start making them again...

Gunny you are correct about the Brat and the Panda gliding over the snow and mud, I was leaving a 4x4 event and on a very muddy carpark when a Landrover Defender decided to sit on my tail, I gave the Panda just a little more gas and left the Landrover stuck in a rut...

The Russian Lada Niva also gained my respect after seeing what it was capable of. I had a 1litre Suzuki 410 at the time (1985) and that too would go through hell and high water without a hiccup...

OldWin · Post by **OldWin** » Thu Dec 23, 2021 10:27 am

I've wheeled all my life.
Weight is one of the most important, and overlooked, factors that contribute to success.
That was the secret of the old flatties and CJs. They actually had very little clearance, but would still go anywhere. They were always dragging and banging. The u-bolts under the springs on mine were bent over 90 degrees and peened to twice their diameter. What passes as a "Jeep" now is absolutely bizarre. The reason they are all on 40s is because they are too big to maneuver and so heavy that as soon as they ground out they are stopped.
Let alone all the useless garbage everyone bolts all over them.
I save weight everywhere I can. I also check the weight of EVERY component I add or change.

Sixgun · Post by **Sixgun** » Thu Dec 23, 2021 10:29 am

Those Brats..were they like a little pick up truck? My BIL had one back around 1977....I remember the year because I had a '76 Ford 4x4 XLT back in the day when no one around here had a 4wd....I rolled it...drunk...the Ford....and a few others....

Wasn't the winter of 77-78 where we had that massive snow storm?

Some of the crazy stuff we did but I never went as far as Jay and his buddies....I never intentionally destroyed stuff by going up or down vertical cliffs and coming down hard....drank a few bottles of whiskey and cans of beer and threw em in the bed of the truck though.

In those days there were no open bottle laws.....in fact, not much of any laws...we did as we pleased...I still do...that's why I carry a million dollars worth of insurance........some people never grow up and I'm one of them....

Hey GK...if England is always wet, foggy, misty, whatever you would think you guys get a lot of snow....tell us about the north...lots of snow? With rare exceptions I've never been much further than a mile or two down the road.

Woke up at 8....could not sleep.....looked out back and saw s.on the back patio...only foxes do that .....now I have to run the fence line to figure out how he got in....mom's madder than a hornet at me as fox s has worms and other nasty stuff.

Sixgun · Post by **Sixgun** » Thu Dec 23, 2021 10:39 am

I hear ya Jay on the newer Jeeps "passing as Jeeps"....my dad told me the old Packards and other heavy cars would cut right through the snow with their skinny tires....

When I was a kid delivering newspapers my bike was hell in the snow...I'd wheel right through 20 feet snow drifts. My dad put studs on my tires as we needed the money I was making ..a dollar a day...he'd make me go out in all kinds of crazy weather but he'd give me a pint of Old Crow to keep myself warm...I was 12.....he also made me sleep outside in the snow so I'd stay used to being cold...then I'd have to walk 16 miles to school everyday......my parents would take the money I earned and drink it up but sometimes would give me a dime for a soda pop. I had a pet dog but I had to eat it to survive. I even ate little kids that strayed too far from home.

And people today think they had it rough.---006

Hey! Sounds like you grew up in Maine in the 70s.

We didn't wreck new stuff. It was usually pretty rough by the time we got it.
And that Brat didn't get hurt going down that sand pit wall, but I was worried about the occupants for a few seconds.

The good ole days........

Hey Six, sorry to hear you had a tough childhood, I too had it hard I had to get up half-hour before I went to bed

The North of England has the most snow, the South where I am has little to no snow most winters. We folks from further north joke about the "soft southerners" their beer is ain't up to much and they whine about everything, not too friendly either

when I was working if anyone offered me a cup of coffee or tea I used to say your not from the south then

I am waiting for someone to start making smaller pickup trucks without 4 door cabs, the old ones are getting harder to find.

00, I haven’t worn so much as a tie in many years so on that 32-20, could you get that outdated scope off there, looks clumsy. And, you are a handy guy and that thing looks dangerous. Do you suppose you could install one of those dandy cross bolt safeties that they used on the 94s for a while. Those are nifty!

GunnyMack · Post by **GunnyMack** » Thu Dec 23, 2021 12:37 pm

OK GK......that pick up looks like a bumble bee. Thanks on the snow info in the Kings Land.....yea, no matter where you go, people complain and whine or sometimes, "both".

I could use your expertise on how to dress with class. That Old Savage guy is very uppity and I need to impress him when he comes out to steal my 32-20 single shot......

looks like we are all slobs, even Fred don't dress up. My idea of dressing up is a new pair of jeans with a fresh Sturgis 2021 bike rally T shirt, pair of nice military boots and a "don't tread on me" hat.

You know, I don't like others crashing our party....they give their two cents worth and leave. Why can't they just stay and contribute with some humor. I think that's why Itchy left .....didn't seem to be too happy. I keep envisioning splotches of paint losses on Itchy's John Deere in the shape of a

tongue.

Hey bud,
I was going to post last night, but got tired.
This is my 30-30 SRC. It's a little earlier than yours, cause it pre dates the "lightning bolt letters". This one is in 274k range. It's in pretty good shape, with good wood. Cool that it has an express sight. Only issue is the ring missing. I've had it for 20 years, you'd think Ida put one on it by now.

Can't really blame the manufacturers. They make what people buy. Currently the four door pickup (I happen to like them) are the new version of the mini van. Soccer mom's love them. Teenage girls love them. Most of them never carry anything heavier than a bikini top in the bed (interesting story but no for a family forum). I actually get strange looks when I go to Home Depot and then put stuff like lumber in the bed.

Like Jeeps, trucks are no longer used for their intended purpose by the owners.

Sixgun · Post by **Sixgun** » Thu Dec 23, 2021 8:54 pm

Jay....it's even harder to find an early SRC in that condition than mine......274k?...right around 1900..... I like that tight wood to metal fit...loads of blue for any Winchester from that era....those were tools in those days.....how's the bore?.

Your really holding out on me.....show some of that stuff....what's the use of having it all if you don't show it off? Does Trump show off with his name on everything? Do celebrities show off their mixed race babies?....does Jeff Bezos show off by spending a couple of mil to go to space? What makes them any more important than us?

That's right, they put their pants on just like we do but if a peon like me shows off nice stuff, I'm being a loud mouthed braggart. I can hear em talking.."who's he think he is".....no, I don't apologize for having nice stuff and you shouldn't either...lets see some of those half mag carbines...

Shrapnel and Kirk D stop in a couple of times a year to show their stuff off, contribute virtually nothing and people gush, wishing they were them. I contribute more in a week than they do in a year and im ignored.....good, just the way I like it.....Ooooooo Shrapnel, can I be you?

OldWin · Post by **OldWin** » Thu Dec 23, 2021 9:08 pm

Haha yeah. It has a nice bore. I bought it and a 92 SRC in 44 the same time from my buddy. Long time ago. Maybe 20 years. Little less. The 92 isn't as nice as the 94, but as a rule, 92s are always rougher up here.

I tell ya bro, that 86 is smokin! Just beautiful. As I've aged, I've come to really like the extra lightweight 86s. When I was younger, I only liked the earlier style, and that is where I went wrong. Big mistake. That being said, there are very few 86s of any kind up here. When you do see them, they are lightweights. Country is too hard to get around in.

Give me a little while and I will post some pics.

Sixgun · Post by **Sixgun** » Thu Dec 23, 2021 9:55 pm

Ahhhhhhh...wwwaaaaaaiiiiiiiiittttttiiiinnnnggggggg!

Jay..the older '86's are heavyweights..like 10 pounds.....but Lordy, if you find one with a good bore they shoot better than the lightweights....this one is my most accurate...40-65....still has a fair amount of colors left.......on paper it will do 4-5" ....at 300 meters..yes, meters....

The tang sight is windage adjustable and was only made for 2 years..'96-'97....the sight alone is worth the same as a half dozen Rossi's.

look how massive it is.....yea...it's MINE!!!.....others need not apply.

OldWin · Post by **OldWin** » Thu Dec 23, 2021 10:42 pm

Half mag 38-55 SRC. It has considerable finish wear, but is clean, straight, and honest with nice wood and perfect bore. I bought it for 500 bucks.
Interesting side note...
While I have no provenance, it was owned by the last Harrington of Harrington and Richardson Arms Co.

Sixgun · Post by **Sixgun** » Thu Dec 23, 2021 11:48 pm

That stuff you have is NICE...for real....I know these things......all well taken care of...no beaters....I call them "clean and solid" guns......nothing annoys me more than being able to see 1/8" of metal above the wood. That half mag 38-55 is a first for me...(can I have it?).....talk about a lightweight power house...half mag SRC in an excellent cartridge.....we just don't see them here. One time about 25 years ago I was at an auction and there was a half mag eastern carbine 30 wcf and the people went crazy on it...I stopped bidding somewhere around 8.

You got stuff all over the walls...even some of my stuff......been looking for that '73.....I'm sure you have the Colts out of view.

I'd like to have them out on the walls like that and even though we are surrounded by the wife's family I still don't trust what can happen when we are out.....people here are a bit less honest than your area...plus, a lot of people know what I have.

Yea, good guns can make you a prisioner in your own home but that's OK with me...guns never stole from me, guns never deceived me,....like animals, they can't speak or figure out a plan to make your life miserable.

Thanks guys. I have another half mag 38-55 carbine. It's earlier than the one in the pic. Not as good of shape, but it has a mint, shiny bore and is a nickel steel barrel. Good shooter.
I actually saw a half mag 38-55 just like mine on a YouTube video. Guy out west has a channel on shooting and smithing on old Winchesters. The Cinnabar is the name of it.

Oh! It just clicked!
Six, you meant the woman lost on the Appalachian Trail, right?
If so, I know right where that is. Yup. They found the bones about 3 years later. Super tough country. You don't mess around back in there. Why she left the trail, I can't imagine, but it was her last mistake. Too bad.
She wasn't too far back from where the AT crosses Rt.27 by Bigelow mountain. I ride my bike up through there a lot. Wife and I ride up there with the Jeep too. I've posted pics from that area here before.
It's not strange for the ski season to last to the end of May on Sugarloaf.
