    Ukraine Possible Resolution

    If I am in violation of any rule delete this post. I have thought this might be a resolution to the Ukraine conflict. What if the United States and the European Nations offered citizenship and $20,000 to any Russian or Russian Satellite soldier, sailor, marine, or airmen who is involved in the...

    Ladd, Lake, and A Colt 1903 or 1908

    I bought this yesterday. A Colt M1903 .32 Auto. It shoots to point-of-aim at 18 yards with Remington ammo. Made in 1931. I told the War Department to start growing her hair longer so we can "reenact" some of my favorite Alan Ladd and Veronica Lake movies!!:D

    To any and all who have been. I know that our "Boss" (gorilla lookin' guy) has. 1. Are there decent prices? Not "steals", not overpriced either. 2. Is it a good venue for the leather, grips, accessories? 3. If...just IF...I find J. Edgar's S&W .357 Magnum...is there someone there who will do...

    Cougars by The Pair

    On the same hunt where the elk and black bear (other threads here) were killed were also seen the two cougars, assumed to be den mates out for an afternoon picnic. Tags were available but it was one day before legal. Never seen afterwards.

    Another Bear Cartridge Thread

    If you want to kill a large male black bear at 495ish yards with one shot you might check out the .338 Lapua. The bullet was the Berger 250 grain target at about 2850 fps muzzle velocity. One shot into the front of the chest and it went down. Taxidermist says it has the finest coat he has ever...

    I know we have a number of intrepid, overseas travelers here; as well as folks a lot more knowledgeable than me. If a person is going to Germany, with travels in other European nations, who is a good cell phone company/provider? Currently using Verizon, but they may not be so good over there...

    Properly Armed At The Party

    The below pic is a random photo attached a to a story about the Vet who shot the bad-guy in Chi-Town recently. I suspect its a K-Frame variant. The holster appears to be an "Alamo" or one of the copies of that brand sometimes made in Mexico. A good gun in good leather. It looks like a wad of...

    Regulation Police/Terrier

    So...I walked into my favorite firearms emporium and under the glass I saw, what was labeled as: "S&W .38/.32 Terrier." It has some blue wear in places it should for a properly used, but not abused revolver. It had a four digit serial number, so I thought, "Neat! It definitely must be a Pre-War...
