    If I am not mistaken you can call the Federal records Center in St. Louis and they have any records the government has. I know they had fire a decade or so ago and think I read some record were complete destroyed. Good luck Here I their website. Military Personnel Records | National Archives...

    Phil Swift here

    Ya, the point of advertising is that people remember. And guess what, You remember him and his cheezy spiel. That is the point. I might forget a name, but I remember the product. Good and effective advertising. There use to be another huckster on tv named Ron Poleil, who sold hula hoops and all...

    John Wayne movies.

    For a large group of men who grew up watching John Wayne, it would be impossible to limit his "Best" to just 10 movies. I love them all and watch any of them I get a chance to watch whenever I can. I have to say that he was truly an idol when I was a kid and tens of millions of people world wide...

    Winchester 1906????

    I would also try Numrich in West Hurley. Gun Parts is there new name. They buy and sell obsolete parts. I have a couple of 1906's, they are really great little .22's. I can't tell from your photos whether yours is worth putting big money into but I don't think you will lose money my putting on a...

    REPLACED AFTER 35 YEARS

    Well you won't have the same dilemma again because there is no such thing as a Microwave lasting 35 years now! In fact, you will be lucky if you get 10 years out of it! Actually, I would say 3-5 years. I have been using Sharps 1000watt for decades and the last two I've owned lasted slightly...

    These Are The Breaks...

    I remember when we called these top breaks " Saturday Night Specials" you could buy them all day for $25. Boy, how times have changed. I will say most, most of the true SNS's we're in 22, 32 S&W and 38 S&W. S&W branded pistols didn't qualify as they and Colts always had a collectors interest...

    Win 100 .308?

    I have a carbine length, made in '73 that takes .243. Beautiful little rifle. It had never had the firing pin replacement, but after going online I was able to verify that it had not been fixed. It was a government mandated safety recall so Winchester has to fix any submitted. They will either...

    Ethical question -- Okay to rely on "Free Returns"?

    Your policy is the same as mine which is, no returns unless I have made a mistake in the listing....period. The only way I could possibility consider a free return policy would if I was grossly overcharging in the first place. If you are selling an FFL item the hassle of taking a weapon back...

    BG 380 pocket holster decision

    I have a P380 and Ruger Lcp I'll and have my p380 Talon leather pocket holster and my LCP in a Kydex one. The leather is somewhat pliable, and is good as out not printing. My Kydex works equally as well, but I have learned over time that Kydex holsters will allow the finish to be rubbed off the...

    Upgrade Your Computer - Don't Buy A New One

    Right now I have three obsolete laptops in the garage. I think they are XPs and Windows 7s. They still work (I suppose) but I just never felt it was that worthwhile to have them refurbished, especially updating to Windows 10. Most computers running XP and Windows 7 may have a problem upgrading...

    How Many Here Have False Teeth And I Need Advice

    If your dentist is building a bridge he should be making a mold of your uppers so that your bite matches. I hate all dentists so I won't mention the exorbitant prices they get away with charging! Sent from my LG-H901 using Tapatalk

    Guns are dissapearing off the shelves

    I have a question, has anyone explained why there is such a shortage of guns available. I saw that the were a million+ NIC checks run last month but doesn't American manufacturers and wholesalers have capacity to replace the guns sold. I just wonder if there isn't some "holding back" in order...
