I will soon have two .22 mags. Both of are made by Marlin from the old factory. One of them is a Model 57M, a lever action rifle which looks more like a large caliber centerfire rifle than a mere .22 but let me tell you, it's a shooter and if you are considering going after medium size game...

Ooh ok I guess I can tell on myself: acquired, a bolt action Marlin model xxx in .22 Mag from the LGS. From auction a S&W 659 because someday I'll be in the wet Northwet and I'll need a CRS pistol. A Turkish semiauto 12g shoddy gun because a friend didn't want it. I need some rubber grips for...

I'm not a retired LEO in the same sense as those of you who wore a badge, still ii served on many a holiday eve night and often the following day.

Haven't been to the range in a long time. I don't like to go alone and my buddy that usually goes with me is having his eye surgery soon, then we can go again. That said when I want to do some dry fire practice it is my M10-6, 5"bbl that gets the nod. Fit with Pac's and some snap-caps it has...

If two of my grandchildren are any example, we should not only be scared we should me frightened out of our skin. On the other hand, my other two grandchildren are examples of what caring parents and home schooling can accomplish. the oldest of the latter two has his ham license and can...

As a recent author of just such an experience I can assure you there is a #9. Do not ever, I repeat, never hiccup. If by some weird act of human experience you should hiccup, you will think of laughter or a good cough as one of the most pleasant things to have happened in your life. The...

Jimmy I'm not so sure about the broken heart, but I can assure you, by the time you've had four or five of them you no longer cared for that night.

I was young and we were poor. How poor? We lived in the Seattle area in a tarpaper shack. The only thing we had for heat was an old sheet metal tent stove. Often one or more of us had colds. One winter long before i was 5 years old I got pneumonia and as we couldn't afford a Dr. my mother...

I have to wonder, how many of the new calibers are in fact a match for so many of the old calibers? The older cartridges may not be American but could well be of a foreign nature, ie. has anyone here really tested the 8X52 Siam round. Can't get cases for it, try using 7.62X54 Russan and fireform...
