    Ruger single 6 opinions

    I have a Ruger single 6 that I bought in about 1986. It's .22lr only, no mag cylinder. The chambers on it are very tight, loading it is a chore and takes the fun out of shooting it. I called a local gun store and they suggested sending it right back to Ruger. I also wondered about trading it on...

    Scam?

    Along with all my junk e-mails this morning I have one that says Amazon rewards and one that says Walmart rewards. The link to display images in the e-mails is a bunch of scrambled letters @ wordstube.com. I get e-mails all the time with a bunch of scrambled letters in the address and never open...

    How often do you read all the posts in a thread

    Often when a thread has 50-100 posts I read maybe 10-20 then the posts become repetitive or argumentative and I go on to another thread.

    dog owners- Chewy.com

    Reading the TSC thread made me think of this. Last year my Lab was diagnosed with Kidney failure. The vet put her on a special dog food that was close to $70 a bag from the vet. I tried chewy.com & got it at least $10 a bag cheaper and they have free shipping over $50. Well this spring she died...

    discriminatory ads

    The tv is full of ads where the woman is all teary eyed hugging her husband cause he bought her some useless piece of jewelry. Where's the ads where the woman bought her husband a new gun or fish finder?

    insurance advice

    I'll be 65 next year and eligible for Medicare. My wife is still working and I'm on her health insurance. I think she pays about 1500 a year to have me on it. I don't know if I should sign up for Medicare right away or wait until she is done working. I don't know how much the supplemental...

    Those of you with dish network

    Are you getting your local Fox channel? I haven't for about 6 weeks. There is a big corp that owns many local Fox stations that hasn't come to an agreement with Dish. About the only Fox thing I watch is Nascar and the races are on NBC for the rest of this year. If They don't come to an agreement...

    tomatos

    I think it is pretty much agreed on that tomatoes from the grocery store don't have any flavor. What is the cause of this? Is it because they are picked so green? Or are they grown indoors? Or is it a commercially grown variety of tomatoes? Even the ones that are fairly red don't have any flavor.

    Dog acl surgery

    My lab tore a acl/ccl when we were camping. We took her to a vet near there and the vet diagnosed a torn acl in the knee and said she'd need surgery. We're home now and I scheduled surgery for Friday. It will cost about 2k. I started doing some research and found a site that says much of the...

    New deer rifle

    I think I've mentioned before that I have a Rem 742 in 30/06 that I've grown to hate. I bought it in 1968 when I was in high school. It's killed many deer over the years but I can only get about a 8" group out of it and it kicks too hard. I've been looking a little and the Ruger American gets...

    Ankle holster?

    Who uses one? It seems to me like it would make walking uncomfortable with that weight on one leg. It also seems like it would be pretty awkward getting to the gun if you needed it.

    Old, formerly fat guys

    How did you loose weight? I am 5'11". when I was working I was about 220#, I should have been under 200. I've been retired about a year and a half. Last fall at the doctor I was 235, I didn't have a scale at home but bought one last week and I was 250. Partly because I finally quit smoking about...
