    SOLD for sale in Co. 1500lbs WW's

    As they said, filling any air spaces and using lots of strapping tape makes all the difference. I’ve bought several boxes that way. Only a few have had any damage, and if any weights were lost I couldn’t tell. Usually the weights were in some sort of bags inside the box, so when the box...

    Movies I've watched over and over

    Marooned is a good movie that should be better known than it is, IMO.

    This one hurts

    Oh man, I’m sorry to hear that. I have a Goldendoodle and know what sweet dogs they can be.

    Ghost loading a shotgun

    I have to admit I'm surprised at the, I don't know, resistance(?), to this. People have been doing it on Benellis for 30 years that I'm aware of, and I've never heard of a problem caused by it. Why would anyone be opposed to having one more round, especially in a defensive gun? EDIT: BTW, the...

    New from Ruger: LC Carbine chambered in .45 ACP.

    I think I’m among many who thought that, if Ruger made a .45 ACP carbine, it would be based on the PC9 design. I wonder why they didn’t??? I honestly never paid any attention to the LC carbine in 5.7x28 because I have no interest in the caliber so don’t know anything about the action. If I...

    Any Bob Milek fans?

    I'd like to know also. And FWIW, a writer I miss is Dean Grennell. Damn good handloading articles.

    Ghost loading a shotgun

    That was me. I hated having to grow my hair long, but what the hell. It paid well.

    I have to back up and change my father's story a bit.

    That appears to be an M1C in the OP’s picture, based on the scope's mount. The D mount had a single large wheel to tighten it to the barrel lug.

    My new M1s

    I’m a Garand fan and mostly a purist. I’m also conflicted. The Armaloy finish makes me wince but also makes me want to do the same to one of mine.
