I feel a strange need to go get some Overalls. Does Levi's make'em and where can I get'em. I'm being totally serious!!!

Congratulations! Go to the East Town Wally-World and buy some bullets. While you're packin. They actually had a bunch of 9mm, 40 & 45 (Blazer Brass) when I stopped by there Sunday on my way back from Bass Pro, The Beef Jerky Outlet, and the knife place out there.

+1 on that. I think 10 or more years ago P.S.'s (put on "O" in the middle if you want) were a great place to go look for deals. Seems like those days are gone.

Will this new Miracle Gun be as elusive as the LCP? Seems like Ruger needs to catch up with demand before releasing anything else they can't deliver on! Bill, Sr. is probably rolling in his grave!

Good. Glad he's willing to make things right. One word of caution though: I would ask for the firing pin to be replaced, not the bolt. Enfield bolts are serial numbered along with the receiver and barrel. Look on the back of the bolt handle. Is there a number there? Does is match your receiver? In other words if you put a whole new bolt in you may want to get it headspaced.

Oh yeah, Welcome!

I like the battle sights too. I also like mil-surps that look the way they did when retired. In other words, please don't go and drill any holes it! That will destroy any collector value it has. Naturally, you can do whatever you want.

For Naifeh not to win all 50 Repulican Reps must 1) show up and 2) vote against him. A tie (49-49) means he's still in, at least temporarily. If two R's don't show up and/or vote for him. He's in.

Are you serious! You do mean FOUR and not THREE 75. right? That's ridiculous!

I think this one is older than a VZ.? That's a very old, like WWI or before rear sight. Kahrman, what markings are on the thing? What's on top of the receiver just forward of the bolt and also on the left side? Any other marks? I never even heard of a 358 until now. If you've got an 8mm bullet or .30 (just for testing purposes) and stick it in the end of the barrel does it swallow it? There's a big difference between 8mm and 35.

Look! You built a Magic box. You took a picture of your own camera! Just kidding, I've got my box built (thanks Verne!) and am still experimenting with the Nikon settings, proper poses, etc.

Start loading shotshells and use'm for pellets.

Amen +2. And may I add: posted is posted as far as I'm concerned.

I might have half a box laying around somewhere. It's your's if you want it and if I can find it. My dad had one just like it that he let me shoot back in about 1980. I remember we had to go buy a box of .38 s&w. Probably used 15 or 20 rounds of it. Well, somewhere I've got what's left of that box of ammo. I dug that Iver out of Mom's closet over Christmas. Dang! We left the thing loaded. Pulled the shells out with all kindas green crude on 'em and threw 'em into the trash. As far as I know no Memphis garbage man ever said a word. Anyway, that old thing is so rickety I will never shoot it. Musta' been that way when I did all those years ago!

Definitely early 1900's or late 1800's. I've got a repro 1897 Sears catalog that lists them. I like old stuff like this.

I bought an extra Power Ball today. In anticipation...

Lemon "squeezer" would be a Smith & Wesson. They had the backstrap safety.

She must have been a real pistol! HaHa. Grandma's rock. Did she carry it around? Is that Iver Johnson a .38? Don't shoot it what ever it is. I've got one that about 60% nickle remaining and it's about to come apart.

You did that to torture me didn't you. Man, when I build my time machine..... And back then, you could have those goodies sent right to your door. No license required!

I think they already are.

A thing of interest. I am no expert but that Eagle stamp is a WWI era inspection stamp and the si6 may possibly be S16. Everything seems to point to S and a number.

Hmmm, Interesting. So you have a special form with your name and some serial numbers sent to the ATF and local Sheriff. You're probably entered into the "Gun Nut" database and God know what other systems. May not be "registration" but you sure as hell are kept track of!

Finally we're about to find out who's the best of the best of the best. According to the BCS. Normally I hate Florida, but it's the SEC going again for National Champs - so go GATORS! It's the last football game for like 8 months so I'm kinda excited.

Who may have one anywhere? I'm beginning to think they don't exist! All I remember is last April or May I was at a gun show saw several - for about $279 a pop. Bersa .380's were going around $229 (blue, black or two-tone) and the Firestorm version for about the same or less. And there were lot's of 'em. Been kicking myself in the buttocks ever since for not getting one!
