Well, first off, I am not a professional. But I do have an opinion. I have owned exactly 5 1911's in my 55 years. I kept the Combat Commander because that is all I needed. Been tinkered with a bit, but accurate and reliable. I bought my first Glock 19 back in '93 and was impressed as I could be for ...

My CZ does well with CCI Minimag but really likes the Winchester white box stuff. It's a bolt so ftf are not really critical to action.

Oh man..... where do I start? My 1976 Remington m-1100 I bought when I was 12 years old with my own money. Then there was the early 70's Marlin M 336 in .35 Rem. Oh, and then I sold a beautiful Winchester M-70 in 7mm Magnum that I believe was the most accurate rifle I have ever owned. I live in Flor...

This should be required reading in Lit class in every high school everywhere. I think I'll save a copy to re-read when I get to feeling a little uppity.

I've been cooking on cast iron now for I guess 15 + years and exclusively for the last 8 years. I finally got rid of the last of my "non-stick" pans when we moved 6 months ago into a smaller place. I have accumulated several skillets. 1 6", 3 8" , 3 10", 1 12" and 2 10'...

I won't even dignify mention that low-life's name.

Using the kuerig nowdays. I only need 1 cup or I get jittery. We buy Café du Monde chicory coffee cheap at a Vietnamese market and use a little basket insert. Cheaper that way. Makes a pretty good cup in my special mug with a dollop of honey and a splash of half-n-half. If I have the time I use a st...

I can't get that image out of my head....Quick! Somebody post picture of a Model 94 !!

Well, if the end is coming, it's kind of a relief for me. No more trying to decide if I want to waste my time on the internet or go fishing. Can I get rid of my cable too?

I love both Spam and sausages. I keep a couple of cans of sausages under the seat of the boat just in case. Had them all my life, camping or whatever. Rather just avoid knowing what is in them. Ignorance is bliss I suppose.

I have not seen that particular model, but I must say..... LOVE IT! Had that been available when I bought my '95 years ago, well, no point in pining. For $750, not a bad choice. If I were in the market........

I sold the one I had several years ago to finance a Sig P220. One of my biggest of many gun trading mistakes. And sadly, not the last one either.

Sorry for your loss. The only good coyote is a dead coyote. We have them here in central Florida everywhere. I recently moved out of a golf course community and I was constantly seeing this one off the 13th Tee box. I carry a .22 mag in the wagon, but I don't want to get arrested firing a weapon ins...

I hear ya'll. While I don't currently own one now, I've owned two M-19s in the past and I am very favorable of them. I intend to rectify that empty slot in the safe in the future.
They are not particularly pretty, but by golly I can hit with it almost as good as my 1911.

You did the right thing, now you've probably got a loyal companion who will give you his all. "scuse me, I've got dust in my eyes.

I have a Marlin 25mn from around 1990 in 22 mag that is pretty accurate. Not a poor choice by any means if you can find one in decent shape. My other maggie is inherited from my brother who passed on his old H&K M300. This gun has killed everything found in the state of Florida including deer, h...

Nice little read. I have owned other rifles in different calibers including a nice Model 70 in 7mm Rem Mag. Sold them but kept my .30-30 Model 94 and my little Glenfield carbine.
In the swamps and pine flats of Florida, it does put meat on the table and doubles as home security. I'll never sell them.

Catching up on the latest from the holidays, But DANG! The HP is one of my top 3 favorites along with the Colt 1911 and S&W J frames. I had a .40 cal once for a while and sold it because it wasn't a 9 mm. In light of recent gun control events, I think I need to keep an eye out for one. Congrats ...

Thanks for that. I scored rather high on that, thanks to my raisin'. I missed a couple, I'll clean that up right away. I think I'll pass this on to my daughter. I'd like to think she would be selective in her choices.

Oh MY ! How UGLY!! Send that to me and I'll take care of it.
(that is some serious good looking fistful of beauty in my favorite package)

Wow! Really nice looking piece. I could see where a fellow could get an appreciation for a rifle of that sort.

I'm sorry. But that has got to be the best joke I've heard in a long time !! Thanks for that!

Nice find! That happened to me once with a Marlin in .35 Remington. For the life of me, I can't understand why I traded that rifle........

Sorry to hear of your loss. As a former owner of a mini myself I can say I know what your going through. Freya has been gone 4 years now and still missed and spoken of fondly. I had to have another dog right away and found a rescue Terrier Mutt and she has been a joy. Who rescued who?

Nice pics guy's. Keep it coming. Gun season starts here this weekend, so, who knows. Had to scoot a big ol' bear out of the driveway yesterday so I good roll the trash can down for pick up. Neighbors don't like him, but he don't really bother anybody. City folks.

Still, pretty cool. I wonder what they would say at the dock when I roll up with that at my next Bass tournement?

Being new here, and I believe this may be my first post/response, I for one am not easily offended. While acknowledging that the mentioned photo had nothing to do with guns, shooting, hunting, etc. I believe the point being made was giving all a peek into the personal life of a forum member, sharing...

I was'nt there. Born in '63. But, my brother was in '66. I got nothing for her. I won't have anything to do with anything she is a part of. And gentleman, thank you for your service to this country.
