That's good information. Thank you. The one I have has an orange follower and works fine. The new Pro Mags are no good at all.

I just recently got one off of GB. Love it. I'm having mag issues, however. It came with what I believe is a non-SW magazine. 7 round, orange follower, works fine. I bought two new Pro-Mag magazines and they won't function most of the time. I've purchased a factory mag off of a site that shall...

A hound named Goober.

Eagle Sambar stags shaped by John Gallagher in the mid-90s. The nessmuk is by Matt at ML Knives.

I shoot 8 grains of 231. It burns cleaner for me than Unique. My 25-5 was cut down to 3 inches and ported by an unknown fellow before me. (It has night sights and a WONDERFUL trigger.) It keyholes pretty badly with the .452 250 grain SWCs that are so accurate in my Ruger Bisley. However it...

If it makes you feel better, there is NOTHING new that you could buy these days that compares to what you have, especially for that price. You could have done better, but you couldn't have done BETTER. The amount that you paid will fade over the years but the quality of what you have will only...

Thanks, Sir. I've got 2nd Edition and it doesn't include the Mt Guns.

What is the weight of the Model 25-13?

I've got two Dietz lanterns that I've used for years canoe camping. I've never had any problems. I love 'em. Simple and cheap and effective. Check out Lehmans store on the web. They have all sorts of non-electric light choices and they have all the parts and accessories that you'll ever need.

You people talk as if being turned into bear turds is a BAD thing. Hell, you COULD be a U.S. congressman.... Imagine how bad that must be. When I'm in the boondocks I pack iron based on confronting two-legged varmints (my daily carry Model 13-3). If the bad luck lottery strikes and I get et...

I had DREAMS about the characters after I read the book. Grim and brutal and still beautifully written. His books No Country For Old Men and Blood Meridian were like that too. I don't particularly want to see the movie. The book spooked me more than enough.

Shaped for me by John Gallagher in the mid 1990's. $200 or BO.

I'm filled with lust but not $850 worth of lust..... That's pretty danged high.

Perfect. You will not be disappointed. The Fender Telecaster of handguns.....

I had the same situation outside of Ahoskie on Highway 13 over the 4th of July weekend. It was just dusky dark and they had set up a DUI stop. I was stone sober (19 months!) and I turned over my license and CCP and the young trooper looked me over and said "Thank you, Sir. Drive carefully". He...
