A forked tree branch, a bicycle inner tube and a piece of scrap leather. Made several when I was a kid. (y)

When I was a kid, West Tennessee was prime rabbit and quail country. Lots of people hunted them and it was actually good for the area economy. But around 30 years or so ago, coyotes crossed the Mississippi river. They wiped out the rabbit and quail. Ain't seen either in years. 🤬 There was the...

The handle appears to be shaped like a 1911 with 1911 grip panels on it. I'd expect that from Wilson. ;)

I grew up in a camping family and have been camping most of my life. Mostly in tents and cooking on Coleman stoves. After my parents retired, they bought a nice camping trailer and did some traveling. I went with them a couple of times. Nice and easy, but not real camping to me. I've backpacked...

Camping is defined as the art of living comfortably in the outdoors. The key word here is comfortably. The point is to get out and enjoy nature. If you're miserable the whole time, why do it? Look at all the people who camp in trailers and RVs. Couldn't that be considered glamping? At my age and...

The rotten apple. :rolleyes:

I have COPD. At the very beginning of Covid my Pulmonologist told me straight up, if you get it, it'll very likely kill you. I took the shots, I wore the mask and I played by the rules. I never caught it. Two friends of mine were denyers. They both got it and it killed them both.

You can bet that the FBI is gonna be talking to whoever had the seats under that compartment.

I remember him in "The Last Ship". It was a good show and he was good in it.

I've never understood the attraction of a semi-auto cartridge in a revolver. :rolleyes:

One of the features of a Python is that deep, high polished blue finish. This ain't it. I have no idea what Colt is trying to do here. :rolleyes:

I was slim and trim once myself. But we all get older. :rolleyes:

I feel the same way about Memphis. 😞

I think you've confused Pachmyer for Hogue. Hogue uses the stirrup mount on their revolver grips. I've never cared much for that either as it adds un-necessary length to the grip. I never liked the feel of their rubber grips at all. However, I am quite fond of the Hogue wood grips for semi-autos.
