Back in the 80’s early 90’s when I shot quite a bit of black powder I always like the Remington revolvers the best. The Colts are a work of art but I hated the sights being on the hammer. Except for the repop of the Dragoon my friend I shot with every weekend had all the Colt cap and ball...

I didn’t get to read the article so forgive me if this is in there. After the debacle of no cleaning equipment and powder was straightened out the rifle was really liked. With the 1:12 rifling and the high velocity the bullet would yaw almost instantly. That’s what earned it the name the meat axe.

That close to center I’d leave it alone.

It’s really snappy and I’m struggling with shooting it as quickly as I want but that’s because if the arthritis in my hands. Sucks to get old but it better than the alternative. 😖

I fired Laws also they were cool. When ever we got the chance to fire anything my hand went up and I always got picked. Never got to fire a TOW. I can tell you this they didn’t work well in the Desert. I was on the 1st Bright Star Mission that went to Egypt. All 3 channel was there broadcasting...

My oldest brother was drafted in the late 60’s he stayed state side also.

I also sold my 300blk and ammo back then also made a killing on it. 2k rds at $3 each.

I shot anything they would let me shoot. Dragons was a blast literally.

Yeah but then you are going to get shot in the head because you’re unarmed.

I have the Wrangler and the Super Wrangler love both. Very accurate SA 22’s.

I missed Vietnam buy a couple of years thank God. I went in the Army in 1980 4 years after Nam was officially over. It was still being pushed to clean your weapons throughly. I was a 60 gunner and you want to talk about a nasty weapon. It carried the nickname the pig for a reason.

Y’all ain’t right. I guess that’s why I am sticking around.

Well I’m not doing it right now but we got a Cornish Cross in with the layers and she got huge. My son and his wife named her Big Bird. She would not have made it the summer so she has been in the cooler for a couple of days time to part her out this evening.

Well I think America should start taking colonies like England used to do. Tske control over the country we liberated at least until we are paid back with interest for liberating them. At half a billion per day should be fine to give them back their country in a couple of years.

I own several Rugers. I haven’t bought the only one I really want yet the MPR 18” barrel.

That caused a lot of troops their life. Just like the M16 in Vietnam with the ball propellant and no cleaning kits.

I built an AR pistol in 5.56 10.5” barrel but traded it and a SCCY 9mm for a Henry in 45/70. That’s was back when Let’s go Brandon was President. I had around $400 in both of them. PCC’s and PDW’s just don’t interest me. If I’m going to have a rifle it’s going to be in a rifle caliber and enough...

Looks like they are trying to get into CCI’s market. Last trip to the range a friend of mine shot some CCI CB’s and CCI Quiet there was a different in report but not enough to pay the difference.

SBR’s and Braces on a short gun have there place mainly CQB or troops in the rear. A rifle is a lot easier to shot than a pistol and less time to train a soldier to use. That was the main use for the M1 carbine. Cooks, rear Medical anyone that wasn’t on the front lines. If I remember right the...

I miss the days when me and my son would go to the range at least once a week. Awesome shooting.
