That is why i mentioned it. )


The crud is running thru this house now. I have called off for tonight and tomorrow. I have 2 weeks of time i can use again. I don't like to but, i don't recover like i use too

[Major 2]

Still have the lingering last hooray of the curd ....occasional cough , mucus & strained voice....Ears are stopped up but overall I feel OK
having said that ...just had sneezing fit on 6 in row...

Looked at a FN-FAL Clone the Toy store has .308 on consignment ....H E A V Y !  not my cuppa ...but cool

[Capt Quirk]

Glad some of you are feeling better. I'm having good days and bad. Everytime I start feeling better, it comes back. Power through, got leather that needs to go! Speaking of, my buddy at the hunting store got a new gun, and wants me to do a full on "cool" western holster for it. As we finish talking about the details, I spot an AK on the wall. Always wanted one, know next to nothing about makes. It is a well used Norinco, he wants $399 for it. Gunbroker has them going for $1500 and up. He says he's flexible. I said this is the kind of thing that might get his holster to the front of the line

That's one "black" rifle I wouldn't mind having. Never have handled one, but I did get to qualify with the German H&K when I was stationed in Germany. Shot really nice, but then I never had to carry it anywhere. I know they're not identical, but still similar layout.

[Major 2]

Just the one Black gun in my safe.... Less you count the Glock 17 I won    or my UZI

Bought it ( like so many did ) figuring the bias liberal news media...might just be right    and "Hildegard the horrible"  might be swept in to office.
Its a M4 in 5.56 NATO

[Baltimore Ed]

My black rifle is actually OD in 300 BO. Unless you count my 3 ARs in .45 acp. No plastic pistols though, a man's got to have some standards. Just steel and walnut if you please. Been raining all day but warm. Coffees been good.
We had 17 shooters at our monthly matchy yesterday, a big crowd for us. 6 duelists, the rest gamers using 2 hands. I was going to go in my pinstripes as we used snubnoses in 3 scenarios but it turned cold so I wore my new RNWMP tunic and shot new services. Also shot my 66 musket again. Clean with it but dropped a few with my snub and 4 inch NS. I got challenged to drag out my vaqueros and shoot SAs next month so between now and then I'll have to limber up the Ol' thumb.

"... Just steel and walnut if you please.  "

Well yeah, I go along that....But   another one of those big buts  

"if" you win one as a Door prize ....I'm not gonna turn away....
Lady's Day at the range ...it was a random drawing for Volunteers & another for a lady attendee ...
I was surprised, when my number was called....
Only Plastic gun I have or will likely ever have... FREE its a no brainer  

[Baltimore Ed]

Major, Wow, that's a real big BUT, but I agree, you can't beat free. I pulled a Uberti .45 3.5 inch Thunderer out of the prize bucket at the NE Regional sass shoot in Thurmont, MD years ago. The real nice one with the checkered grips. I felt that I had won already so the actual match was a just another match that I didn't stress over at all. A real pretty chunk of steel and Italian? walnut. Are there walnut trees in Italy?
I do have a pair of plastic Pointer Pup 'stag' grips on one of my 1950s Colt Woodsmans. Seemed appropriate.

[Major 2]

Well I did put it in a western holster  

The other one is Steel & Walnut

[Baltimore Ed]

'West' Germany?

[Delmonico]

Only plastic gun I have is brown and got it for Christmas in 1976 before plastic guns were cool.

Off today and tomorrow,  came up to eat egg and cheese sandwich and fried cabbage, wife is on here own.  Being banished to the basement again.  She's watching old reruns, guess it's touched y an angel, not hot up side the head by one. 

Got oldies rock and roll on down there, maybe they'll play that AC/DC song.  . Yes, I have a hand basket down there.

[pony express]

I have 2 "plastic" guns currently, newest is my Ruger LCP carry gun, the other is an H&K I inherited. Back in the late80's or early 90's all the gun magazines were raving about the H&K P-7 "Squeeze cocker" and my Dad thought he just had to have one, and wound up with the wrong gun, an (I think, it's somewhere in the back of the safe) VP70-z, the first plastic pistol issued to a military(Germany). It's a BLOWBACK 9mm with a humongous heavy slide, and a really heavy DAO trigger. Only worse handling pistol I've ever shot was a Russian Nagant that I didn't have enough finger strength to make it go bang in DA.

[Major 2]

I have an Izhevsk Nagant ....came home as a novelty.... as such, it's cool.
One thing that fascinates me ...it replaced the S&W Russian revolver. 

[Major E A Sterner]

The only plastic pistol I have is my Ruger SR9c which has become my EDC gun. I used to carry a full size 1911 or Browning HiPower, But with the stupid laws in this state, I figure if I can only carry 10 rounds in the magazine, I'll carry a gun made for it. It doesen't hurt that it's a lot lighter and doesn't aggravate my back pain. So now I carry a lighter gun with a total of 31 rounds of 9mm 115 grain +P+ ammo.

That didn't make very much sense.
