    Squirrels raising havoc on the bird feeders

    Terrible problem with squirrels cleaning out our bird feeders, despite the fact we have attached all the latest “squirrel guards”. Can’t bring my self to shoot the things and figure with all the talent on this forum, someone must have the answer.

    Concealed carry in Post Offices

    Recently while in our local Post Office I noticed the No Handguns placard that has been in Post Offices since forever. I brought it to the Post Misteress’ attention that law was ruled Unconstitutional, I believe in 2022. The lady became very unpleasant and told me to take it up with higher...

    .357 Bain & Davis

    I have a Model 28 with diamond magna stocks that just seem to fit my hand well, that I’d love to use for next year’s deer season. However, I’m skeptical of using a standard .357 for deer. I have a spare Model 28 cylinder and have been toying with idea of having it rechambered to .357 B&D...

    Ruger .45 Colt

    My latest purchase, a replacement for a 4 5/8” version, I bought new in 1972, that was stolen recently. Unconverted 3 screw .45 Colt but with a 7 1/2” barrel and extra .45 ACP Cylinder. As soon as I get some 260 grain Keith’s cast up, we’ll give ‘er a test run.

    .32 Colt Pocket

    Non-gun friend called yesterday, said he had an older friend that had a gun in .32 caliber he wanted to “get out of the house” and was I interested? Turns out the gun is a .32 Colt Pocket auto. Comes as you see it in the pics. Look to be about 75% bluing. I don’t know anymore about it, but am...

    Colt Woodsman 1939 1st issue

    After years of looking, foot dragging etc, I finally found one. 1939 4 1/2” Colt Woodsman 1st issue with adjustable sights. For years I’ve owned a 3rd issue 6” with adjust sights but still wanted the smaller one, especially after reading Skeeter and the one his father gave him. He said it...

Old Timer I’m familiar with but Bobcat Knives don’t ring a bell. I found their website and the knife you see...

    Pre -29 restoration

    I bought this from a gun friend about 42 years ago. Pre - 29 5 screw. He was financially strapped and asked for $150. It was in the condition you see now - used hard and put away wet - literally. It laid in something on its right side that removed bluing on the cylinder, recoil plate and barrel...

    Mrs. Santa is the best!

    In 1967 when I was 18, I bought my first magnum handgun from a friend. It was a Ruger 3 screw flattop 4 5/8” .357. Loved the gun but at the same time Uncle Sam started chasing my butt to go play soldier, money was tight and my fiancé, now my wife of 52 years, needed a car to drive to school so...
