Just before my time. My wife was a little girl then, but only remembers when Oswald was shot. I always found it interesting that, in her little girl mind, she thought they were carrying out his punishment for shooting JFK.

I win.

Good choices! Especially “Pet Loads”. I have had “Pet Loads” since the late 80s and STILL refer to it a lot. In fact, I was looking at Volume II yesterday. Yes, even the newest data is around 40 years old and often contains components that haven’t been available for even longer, but it’s...

Went to a firearms auction yesterday. I was good and only bought six boxes of .22 ammo and three bags of new .44 Spl brass.

To be honest, I’m surprised Guy Relford took this case.

He’s lawyered up. Got one of the best self defense attorneys almost immediately. Initial reports from LE and media was a home invasion. Maybe it’s just wishful thinking on my part, but if there was reason for them to think that, then I could see why the homeowner thought so.

S&W 21-4 .44 Spl I was trying to get a regular, non-Thunder Ranch one, because I don’t care for the gold teef TR logo on the side, but a good deal is a good deal.

Good article. Very technical. Well beyond the “sounded good to my ear” we often get with suppressors.

Now I'm hearing the uncontained failure of #1 engine might have damaged #2 engine (tail). If that's the case, and if it did much damage at all, they had no chance of making it.

I bought three more 15-rd M-1 Carbine magazines. I'm going to use my Carbine in a Veteran's Day fundraiser match this weekend, and got to thinking about how few mags I had for it.

I have a 9mm LCR. Works good.

More SA-35 variations. Smaller ones like the Behlert mini, aluminum frames, maybe a .22 version.

There is more hope today, but all is not well. We have been offered the use of a really nice private range. The downside is it’s not in our county, so it would be a long drive for at least half the families. The Conservation Club is maybe three miles from the fairgrounds, and I think we...

Wow

Gunbroker is fun! The excitement. That tingly feeling when it’s down to the last two minutes. Oooooh, I gotta bid on something!!!!

It sure makes people “ooh and ahh”. Let me say this first before I poke at it: I am a 10mm fan. It’s not so much because I marvel at the ballistics, but more a case of this: If I can have a cartridge that shoots a specific bullet 950 FPS, or one that shoots the same bullet anywhere from 950...

If I’m involved in a shooting and my gun gets held for evidence until things get sorted out, that gun sitting there will be the least of my worries. It will probably be the least of my expenses, too. I’ve heard this discussed a lot, but I never understood the concern. I have a few, very few...

Staying awake stewing. Gnashing my teeth. Our 4-H kids are losing their range. For 20 years or more, we’ve used a local PD range for Pistol, Rifle, and Muzzleloader. Shotgun has their own place. Archery shoots there on the fairgrounds. That PD uses this range as do other agencies in the...

The Getaway (the good one, with Steve McQueen and my ex-wife Ali MacGraw) has one. I never get tired of seeing those heavies riding along in that Cadillac convertible holding their Stetsons on. Or of seeing my ex-wife Ali MacGraw. A 76 gets used on Suzanne Somers in the opening of Magnum...

Good point. I didn’t really think about it being “Top Searches” rather than “Top Sales”. Then again, I don’t know if that makes it less odd to me or more.
