    Bittersweet Day

    After 20 years of RV road trips and glamour camping, we have ended that chapter of our lives. We sold our RV and today the new owner of our Silverback fifth wheel took control of it. Over those 20 years we owned three fifth wheels, 2 Wildcats and 1 Silverback and they created many great memories...

    Poorly handled ATF Raid, Airport Executive Dead.

    This is the type of story that pisses me off. What could this guy have done that would trigger a raid like that? He was an executive at the Little Rock airport and worked there for many years. Couldn't they have just gone to his office and arrested him and then execute a search warrant in his...

    Police vs. the Sheriff shootout (1899).

    This is an interesting read about the shootout in 1899 between police and the sheriff's dept. in Hot Springs Arkansas. 5 were killed and two people were injured. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Springs_gunfight

    Interesting Artwork

    I was on a cruise last year on a ship that was built for Alaskan cruises. The artwork on the left represents gold nuggets and the artwork on the right is made from pistol caliber shell casings. I think it's supposed to represent what it took to protect your gold.

    State Militia

    Am I reading these two Missouri statutes correctly? It seems to me that every able-bodied citizen of Missouri between the ages of 17 and 64 is in the unorganized militia of the state. Or am I reading this wrong? 41.050. State militia, members. — The militia of the state shall include all...

    Dueling

    Missouri Senator Nick Schroer has proposed a rule change that would allow senators to settle a matter of honor by way of a duel. https://www.newsweek.com/missouri-republican-senators-duel-nick-schroer-1863838 I say if it's just for politicians, go for it. Nothing like having your state...

    I'm This Old.

    As a boy, these two were my favorite cowboys, and it goes without saying the Lone Ranger too. I think this is why I like SAA revolvers so much.

    A Favorite YouTube of Mine is Changing Hands.

    One of my many favorite gun channels to watch is Paul Harrell's channel. He announced that he is stepping away from his channel for health reasons (pancreatic cancer) and turning it over to his brother. It will be interesting to see what his brother does with it.

    Technology

    The keyless entry and push button start on our Equinox is wonderful...until the battery in your key fob goes dead. I was finally able to open the door, but the car wouldn't start. I kept getting the message NO REMOTE DETECTED. I began to wonder if I would get home from my shopping trip. I...

    Opinions Please

    My local gun store has one of these in .357 mag in stock. I believe it is manufactured by Pietta. I'm seriously considering buying this revolver. Any opinions on Pietta revolvers? I'm going back for another look tomorrow.

    Christmas Gift

    One of the gifts my wife bought me for Christmas was a CHEAP ($18) smartwatch. I am amazed at how many features it has and how well it works. The most difficult part of pairing the watch to my smartphone was reading the directions. The print was so tiny I had to use a magnifying glass to read...

    I'm Impressed.

    Yesterday I placed an order with Amazon and it was delivered to my door in just under 8 hours. Tonight I placed an order at 5 PM and it was on my porch at 7:25 PM. That's pretty impressive service. I wish they sold ammunition.

    I Must Be the Only One

    I must be the only gun nut that doesn't own a firearm based on the AR-15/M16 platform. I just don't see a want/need to own one. Perhaps, due to my negative experience with the early M16s that were jam-a-matics, it left me a bit warped. I do prefer the look a wood stock.

    Taurus Tracker 357 Mag, My Thoughts

    I took my brand new Taurus Tracker 627 in 357 magnum to the range yesterday. I was very impressed with it. I had to wonder if the Colt Python that my dealer had in his case could be so much better that it would justify a price that was three times the cost of the Taurus. The Colt was definitely...

    WHY?

    A local sporting goods store has a S&W, 44 Magnum snub nose revolver in their display case. It’s similar to the one in this picture. I’d bet the recoil on that revolver would be brutal. If I remember correctly the price was $1199.00. Who in the heck would buy a revolver like this? Why would you...

    Ammo Prices

    Ammo prices have come down enough that I bought some 357 Magnum at $32.99 for a box of 50 and 38 Special at $26.99 for a box of 50. My local gun store also had a couple of brands of 9mm for $12.99. I had to stock up on the 357 mag since the Taurus 627 I ordered should be coming in next week.

    USPS is so mismanaged

    Last week I ordered new grips for my Heritage Rough Rider from the manufacturer. On Friday I received an email from them stating the grips had been shipped along with a tracking number. According to the tracking number the grips were scheduled to arrive today (Monday). Well, that ain't gonna...

    Days Long Gone

    I was going through my stash of ammo and buried in the back I came across this box of 44 magnum I didn’t know I still had. Wow, 50 rounds of 240 gr TCSP for $15.99.

    Alaska

    I just returned from an Alaskan cruise and all of my shooting was done with a camera. I don't have an expensive camera so I'm quite pleased with the wildlife pictures I got.
