I've been fighting a cold all week. I have canker sores in my mouth from lack of sleep because of coughing during the night.

Had to do a repair on a zone valve tonight. Temp in the house was 75. Thermostat was set at 68. It was stuck open. The zone valve control was the problem. I replaced it with a spare. Temp is dropping.

Prolly gone though...

@Major- I found that the way to get the winning vote, is by buying first, then telling the wife 

In the long run, I may end up losing the war, but at least I won the battle

A little bit of Arcey rubbed on you.  He liked those J frames also.  I would if they weren't so dang high priced

If a bit of Roy Shipley rubbed off on me, I'd be honored. I think of him whenever I see a Eagle.

Roo,I picked up a S&W Model 60-7 late last year for $315.00 out the door, Has a 3 inch barrel. It's marked "Lady Smith" on the side plate. I picked it up for my Mom to have. The deals are out there,Just have to keep looking.I thought Arcey preferred the K frame revolvers? I would have loved to have one of his Model 19 snub nosed revolvers. Still can't believe he's gone.

Looks like this

[Major 2]

Roo   I agree with the good "other" Major  

They can be had,  mine is 60-14 with a 2.1 " barrel .... Standard with Rubber grips ( Ladysmith has the wood )

I paid $400 out the door.
It was purchased new in 2002 by the PO, he also had a 25 Round box of Hornady .357 Magnum, JHP/XTP,  he bought with, it was missing just 5 rounds.  EDIT: I forgot to mention, he traded it in for a Ruger LC9S
He said he shot those , and didn't care for the recoil... it has sat in his dresser drawer since    

My nickel Mod 36 is no dash pre-lock came with diamond rosewood grips, I added the Walnut Classic grips several years ago.

For pocket holster carry, the 60's rubber grips will be replaced with similar for no drag or snags. I load the 36 with Hornady Critical Defense 38's ....the 60 will get the same.

I do have 3" Mod 36 in Blue....actually my wife has it

Morning guys, second cup is mty. It was 55 yesterday and very nice but we've still got a little snow in the shade, 30 over night. Supposed to be a tad warmer today. I'm going to shoot something today. Still have a headache but the rest of my symptoms have calmed down. We shoot our monthly cas match next weekend, I'm not sure what I'm wearing. I really wanted to do my NWMP outfit but it might be too warm.

[litl rooster]

Thanks for the coffee Slim



I agree with both of you- it is the matter of being patient and waiting for the deals. It is the only way i can stay in it now. I have a model 10 and a 14-5. Would like a m60


Speaking of Roy Shipley and the Eagles, the Nest at Berry College has 2 eggs now. I am hoping the deep freeze didn't damage them.  I still have some egrets he sent me photos of last spring.

[Delmonico]

Got added to a FB group by a friend because he said it needed some of my color.

Some good people on it and some of these wanna be yuppie types that don't know much. 

Been posting the stuff I've been doing, posted this and worded it as digging in the junk box again.

Some guy said I must have an interesting junk box.

Held my tongue, but wanted to say, "who in the heck don't?"

[Major E A Sterner]

Some nice looking wood you have to make the scales for those knives.

[Delmonico]

E Bay, cost almost as much to ship it.

If I was wealthy the UPS man would think I was starting a lumber yard. 

[Silver Creek Slim]

Could get ice tonight.
