    Victory sold on Gunbroker for $2,500

    Thank for the replies! It sounds like it could be a couple of reasons for the high selling price, none of which are the revolver having anything special about it (that we know of). I have seen some original finished Victories in like new / unfired condition go for high amounts, but this one...

    Tomorrow's generation. Guess, I just got old.

    People say that... but I really think we are entering a brave new era. People want them to take the world “feminine” off of feminine hygiene products, tampons and such, because now “men can have periods” and the word “feminine” will trigger their gender dysphoria. In 400 BC I doubt they had...

    $3.5 Mil For A Hockey Stick?

    Difficult for me to wrap my head around. It’s things like this that make me question our monetary system / economic stability / social values. I think we are a society that runs on buying non essential things and instant gratification, while neglecting everything else. I know there is more to...

    Interesting Information in the 1938 S&W Catalog

    Maybe a stupid question, in the ads are they showing the smaller S&W logo on the left side? I thought by that time period they had the larger logo on the right side.

    Tomorrow's generation. Guess, I just got old.

    I will try not to go too much into the bizarro world I get the pleasure of living in... but apparently it’s a common thing now for anyone to have “PTSD” this can be over anything, it can be over things that never even happened, and you don’t get to question them because you can’t tell someone...

    GunBroker Scams!

    Also keep in mind someone can make a bunch of small purchases to boost their rating. I can understand either wanting to pay by credit card or PayPal, if I have the option I pay by credit card. I have unfortunately made some bad Gunbroker purchases. Pictures taken that don’t show a defect or...

    Garlic Again?

    I have probably 100 garlic plants growing. When you cut off the flower head, cut off the green part it is attached to as low as possible, they are edible. For recipes or ideas look up “garlic scapes”

    Morels anyone

    I have only found about 6 this season in Ohio. I did find probably over 100 “half free” morels, still edible but I am not that big of a fan of their texture.

    Where in Ohio? Even with the shutdowns I would expect some kind of communication.
