I wouldn’t have guessed he was still alive. Dang, it seems like I say that a lot.

Just a couple of days ago, I posted a link to a free download to “Principles” elsewhere. I’m cutting and pasting that post here with my comments rather than type something similar all over again. …………………………… Whether or not you liked or agreed with Jeff Cooper, I think you will like this...

We have Open Carry here. I see someone doing it from time to time. I used to do it years ago on the family farm where nobody was around but my own family. I don’t think I would even do that now. Besides other reasons against it, I believe if one is going to carry a gun, they should always...

I’ve used it. Rifles, handguns, centerfire and rimfire. Works great. No harm. I work some into a patch and run it down the bore slowly. It makes an OK polish also, and I’ve used more of it doing that. I have heard of people applying it to the action parts of say a revolver or lever...

Nice! I have one of the Danish contract guns that were imported by DS Arms several years ago (The m/49). I wish I had the accoutrements you have. If one word could describe them, it would be “smooth”. OK, except for the hammer bite. That’s not smooth. I don’t usually get bit by guns...

He’s been on here before, here is my boy: Louis the Goldendoodle. Shown in active and inactive poses.

I just finished watching the F1 race. Best one this year. The new Cadillac team may not win anything for a while, but finishing the race with both cars put them ahead of many today.

Super nice result! But I’m biased toward almost anything .44 Spl. I almost didn’t read it because I had read the earlier 544 conversion article and thought that’s what was linked.

I got my Frank Hamer on today.

BHPs bite different people different ways. The most obvious is by the spur. The other way is by what I call the shank- the upright between the hammer pivot pin and the spur. From what I’ve seen, more people get bit by this than the spur. Sometimes a change to a hammer with a different...

I have a BHP .40 S&W. It’s my only remaining .40 and I kept it because it’s the only gun in that caliber I ever had that truly shot well. The thicker slide messes with the wonderful HiPower balance IMO, making it feel more like a 1911 to me. Small difference to most unless they are used to...

Jerry Ahern again! When I carry a 1911, I carry two spare mags. Come to think of it… When I carry a HiPower, I carry two spare mags. When I carry a revolver, I carry two speedloaders.

How tall is your Publix? I’ve seen some big ones.

If they hold a belief opposing mine and keep it private, I don’t care. Ideally, I shouldn’t know what they think about hot topics. If they want to preach to me about it, I don’t want to hear it. With some exceptions, that also includes if we are on the same side. That’s not why I bought a...

What’s the worst that can happen if you lose any of these things? But even at that, I do know people who have a spare car key tucked away somewhere. A lot of people wear a watch in addition to having a clock on their phone. I’ve known lots of people who keep two knives on them. And when...

Why did i post that? This may get long. Those who do carry a second/third/whatever can come up with plenty of reasons to rationalize it. I'm one who carries a spare, and I can probably come up with 50-60 reasons why. And four or five of those actually make some sense! But those who don't...

Getting face licks from my dog. I just got home from giving an annual Range Safety Orientation at the conservation club. Trying to keep us open another year.

And one big advantage I see to them, that no other type offers, is you can have two independent actions and barrels. Designs vary, so its not completely true with some that share mechanical components, but with others its the case. One can fail completely, and you still have a rifle.

I would love to be a double rifle enthusiast, but don’t have the income. They are very interesting though, that’s for sure. For someone of the means, they would be a collecting and shooting world all their own.
