Manwithnoname,

I have that very revolver, had it for a few years now. Though not pretty it functions well and is accurate. The only drawback is that it will not handle plus P ammo. That said a...

Buds carries the one inexpensive handgun I would recommend. By pistol did you mean auto or revolver too? Any way, I recently purchased a Rock Island Armory M200 revolver. It has a 4 inch barrel and...

My favorite: A rolled up news paper is more effective than a .25 acp.

Kelly is my Senator and I'm very proud of her. I've had people ask me as a gun owner what the objection to the proposed law was and I reply thusly. Whether the law was reasonable or not the...

That looks like a good deal. Take your time and you will have a nice shooter. Long sight radius means accuracy with the right load. Should be accurate out to 50 to 75 yards, a 100 maybe if you work...

Fourth times a charm! Got mama woodchuck with a bolt. Not an instant kill but surely fatal. Got away under my shed before the grim reaper arrived. Might have a stinky shed for awhile. Hope the rest...

I just got a cheap 150 lb crossbow for woodchucks and plinking. Tell you what, that cheap crossbow is well built, powerful and dead nuts accurate. I need to practice more or something cause I took 3...

125 rounds is a lot of rounds no matter who you are. I'm sore after 50.

Just picked up a Marlin bolt action in .22 mag. Had one years ago but traded it away to get my first muzzleloader. I regret that trade and was tickled to get another. How many of you folks here are...

Hunter you are indeed a lucky man! The prices of those Old Armies have gone through the roof since Ruger stopped production. They are built like tanks and very hard hitting. You will get alot of...

Bushmaster,

A few posters have already mentioned the generational issue as it relates to your grandfathers attitude. Though it doesn't explain it all away it is a factor in his thinking. I've hit...

777 is the easiest to clean but I don't always like the eratic performance its known for. I've only used real black once or twice and found it fouled awful besides, I can never find it in local...

Most of my collection is black powder of the traditional variety.

Advantages: No FFL needed to buy in most states which means no atf paperwork. Inexpensive to shoot and used to be inexpensive to...

I would love to take all of my guns but if I had to boil it down, which would be very hard, I'd have to say 2.

1. A good smooth bore modern or black powder capable of shooting shot for small game...

I've always liked the old cowboy idea of having a pistol and a rifle that shot the same cartridges.

I love old shotguns. I have an old LC Smith hammer gun given to me by my dad. Haven't shot it in several years. Last time I did it was a round of skeet at my club. It performed very well. I also...

Nice job, kind of like a do it your self earthbox. I've done all my gardening in containers. Tomatos work well in 5 gal buckets with gravel and holes in the bottom for drainage. This year I plan on...

This winter its been yellow perch for me. They are very tasty caught through the ice. My favorite saltwater fish is Haddock but fresh salmon and halibut are awesome too.

Uberti still makes an 1858 Remington carbine cap and ball. Its priced between $400 and $500 at various black powder vendors on line like Dixie gunworks. Folks who buy them seem to like them a lot.

I've never messed with perked coffe and until recently instant never appealed to me. However, I did discover a way to make instant better tasting. Mix sugar(amount you like) a rounded teaspoon of...

I guess I'm coming off as argumentitive here and I apologize if thats the case. I have no problem with differing opinions. But a gun is a gun and all guns are dangerous weapons regardless of our...

Ohiogrizzlap,I in no way am going to say that your experiences are not the truth as you see it. Butt I will say that comparing a cartridge that has been responsible for many human deaths to a rolled...

Have you looked at cowboy loads? I think they make them in .44 special. Yup, just checked Midway but the lightest bullet they sell in cowboy loads is 200 grains

One of the problems with small caliber rounds is false advertising. I have used a chronograph to clock .32 long rounds and .38 s&w rounds that were advertised to send a bullet at a given speed and...

I know your not dissing my opinion, you have always been respectful. I am not disputing that humanity has been there done that in history. My point is that the scale and reach of what may becoming...
