It doesn't take long to figure out that not only is everyone NOT staring at you, 99% of them wouldn't notice if you were wearing a skirt and had an AK47 duct taped to your forehead.

I've always used a dye before I applied tru oil. The dye brings out the grain in the wood. The tru oil finishes and seals it, as well as making it shiny.

I just have some odd boxes of old ammo. I would be surprised if mine won't do better with new, high quality ammo. If I can ever find some, I'll give it a try. My magazine isn't that wobbly. For a cheap truck gun, this should work well.

For a lightweight, $225 new American made rimfire rifle with a great trigger, it'll suit my needs just fine.

We can always count on you to sugarcoat the tough subjects for us! :up: :rofl:

The 93 Savage shoots great, and with the accu trigger, it is easy to shoot small groups. I would recommend one for an inexpensive small game, rodent, and varmint rifle.   It'll really be great when you can buy ammo for it again!

Wow! You guys are good!!!! :o :no1:

He has the "right" to ask you a question.   You have the "right" to not answer, show him your ID, tell him to pee up a rope, ask for his ID, etc.   He has a gun, a badge, and likely the local court system on his side, regardless of the situation.   He's likely looking for someone to screw with, or else he wouldn't have stopped to begin with.   If you've done nothing wrong, you shouldn't have to contend with this, but you are pretty much fighting a losing battle no matter what you do.   It sucks, but as Larry Potterfield says, "That's the way it is." :)

They make a run of no lock 642's every so often. I want to think they deem it safe enough for whatever reason because it is double action only. No lock IS the way to go. You did well.

Uncle Phil is the greatest, isn't he? He'd make it as a comedian if the political commentator gig doesn't work out.

I can't call him a friend as i've never met him, but I do count him among my heros. :usa:  :up:  :up:

What are the odds that all four barrels will fire to the same point of impact?

This thread has been harsh, with a bit of levity thrown in for good measure. You are 27 years old. We are giving you a wake up call. The truth isn't easy to handle sometimes, but in the long run, it will be good for you.   Gaming dude isn't coming. He is the least of your problems.   What I love about this forum is the fact that if you ask for advice, you will receive no shortage of it.   We wish you no ill will. We want you to be successful. That's the reason for the blunt advice.   We've all needed a kick in the pants from time to time. You are lucky to have friends here willing to do that for you.

Why have I never seen this??!!?? :stunned: :rofl:

Me too.

This thread keeps reminding me of a song.   THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR WORK, CHILDREN, WOMEN, PEOPLE WITH SENSITIVE EARS, OR ANYONE ELSE WITH AN OUNCE OF DIGNITY!!!!!!! You have been warned. :rofl: :devil:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_DEp1lz0CM

Looks good! Odd guns, added to the fact I'm left handed guided my decision to "do it yourself". [URL=http://s612.photobucket.com/user/gregintenn/media/Holster%20Project/IMG_1392.jpg.html][/URL]

You've never operated a Winchester 62A. I sort of like a tube loaded rifle. A loading gate or two has been known to grab my finger the wrong way.

I've been offered rides by several people at our local airport. Most of the guys there are very enthusiastic about giving a kid a ride. We even have a member of this forum who has offered a ride for my kids and myself. I'll not name him, but wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't see this thread and make you the same offer.   You might just take him to the local airport and ask if you could look around. You're likely to strike up a conversation that leads into a flight. If so, be sure and do something nice for the pilot in return. Lunch, coffee, or something.

I can see this thread topping 1000 posts by the weekend! :up:

I picked up a Savage 93 new from my local dealer this afternoon. I'll give it a try in a few days and let you know how it turns out. It looks o.k. for a cheap gun.

The point has been made, but it appears it has yet to be taken. When he ditches her, then anything after will just be rubbing salt in the wounds. We're trying to save a brother's future here!

I hope I don't offend anyone by saying this, but Henry just doesn't make anything that trips my trigger, so to speak.

Alright! :shake: I've about decided this thread was started as a ruse.   ....at least I learned a new word from it. :rofl:

I had one but never shot it after reading about all the problems with them. I traded it for a Mini 14.   I want a bolt action; perhaps stainless steel.   The CZ's look good to me. I'm also considering a Savage or Marlin. Does Ruger still make a 77/22 with the boat paddle stock?
