    Spinning reel or baitcaster?

    I use both, depending on what I'm doing. River fishing isn't my thing, but there are a couple brackish outlets into the S.F. Bay I hit. Typically there I use a spinning rig, but I have been known to use a small bait caster (Abu). Salmon trolling or mooching, I use conventional. Smaller unit...

    A special woman has passed

    When my FIL passed, we wrote one along those lines and had quite a few gut laughs, but the one we submitted was nothing like the humorous one. Those that knew him would have appreciated it, but discretion made us play it straight.

    S&W 29-2 Question

    My 29-2 was shipped @ 1966 ~ 1967. I use it without worry. Had it 40 years now. My mag load is 22g W296/H110 under a 265g SWC. Too much is made of the endurance package IMO. Sure, it's for a reason, but unless you're a competition shooter in silhouette, I don't think it matters, at least not...

    Only 2 more payments!

    Paid off home rocks! Congratulations! I never went to college, maybe that's why I was more frugal than my sibling - college educated and up to their neck in debt. Paid our home off a couple years back. Now we can retire.

    Do you loan stuff to people?

    In a word - NO. Burned too many times.

    Finally got a 65

    65-5 Ladysmith. I bought it for $750 and suffered ridicule at the time. Came with holster, speed loaders, action job by Mag-Na-Port plus removal of the Ladysmith by them and blend with original finish, boxes of rounds. Now, that $750 is looking pretty good.

    Finally at full circle...........

    Our daughter and only child moved to Arizona, my mom was our last parent and passed in August. We'll be alone for the first time in forever. So... we're having prime rib and yorkshire pudding. :) Still, would be good to have some family.

    Looks like they found…Laundrie…

    While nothing would be to gain, perhaps a statement by the DA saying something on the order of... The parents active participation is considered illegal, but in the interest of humanity and due to their loss and suffering, no charges will be filed and the matter is closed. That way some meat...

    Were You A Criminal?

    Yup, the days of "Ma Richards". democrat extraordinaire. I never did feel the bad vibes regarding handguns, but what I have noticed is similar and unsettling - in another area. Back in the day, weed was illegal and tobacco was common. These days when I go somewhere to smoke a cigar in the...

    Model 66 cylinder issue

    If you reload, try this... Get a .357 empty case. In your loader, over flair the case mouth. Using the deburring tool, make the case mouth edge sharp. Use this new tool to scrape the carbon out of the cylinder. You'll probably need something like Shooter's Choice or Hoppes as well.

    Out with the old, in with the new!

    Thanks! I found the pieces within 3 blocks of my house. Never in my 38 years of living here have I seen such things discarded and this came at a time when I was actively looking to make this thing for our rebuilt yard. My mom passed recently at 92, so I've been collecting her mail, paying...
