  1. Wilson or McCormick would be my choice in 1911 mags. Have a few from the Israeli source and some from Rock Island. No problems with them either. As AlleyCat does...I have a few Korean War era that my Dad brought back too. I hadn't thought about them for quite a while though. Always seem to grab the Wilson.
  2. Can I get a less-than-one hour rate? I won't need that long.
  3. That's so much like reality that it's scary!
  4. Just shows...we can't have nice things!
  5. So...what's the general feeling here guys? Do you feel we are totally Fubar at this point? I have been considering renting a table at a local show and attempting to sell off some things. Is this still a viable option?
  6. Wifey came up with a question. She wants the T-shirt without the back imprinting...only the logo on the left breast. What do you think of this? Maybe a different front pattern? Just something near the logo size?
  7. Yes!! Some of the rims put on great cars today just make me sick!
  8. Agreed! Mopar and Corvette fan mostly, but haven't had a nice car since the late 70s. Loved the Charger R/T, GTX, and RoadRunners. My best Mopar was a 1970 Lemon Twist Yellow 383 Barracuda. No badging on it. Sneaky little sucker!
  9. As a poor, diehard muscle car lover of all makes and models...I must say that it would be hard to find a sleeker, sexier car than the GTO of 66/67! Ragtop or hardtop...gorgeous vehicles!! And this is a great example of this beautiful machine!
  10. You tempt me! You little devil! I had one in 9mm. Fantastic pistols! Should tame a 40 real well. Somebody please buy this so I'm not tempted any longer!
  11. Guys...look at the date stamp. This is 2 years old.
  12. If my old legs could stand the trip...I might try to arrange something. But back and legs won't stand that long a trip. Plus wifey is getting into some back/hip issues now as well. I don't leave her alone for a trip that long. Probably ok, but prudence is the wisest route for me these days. I couldn't forgive myself if she fell (again) while I was out gun shopping. But...there was a time I wouldn't hesitate to do so! lol! So...I'm out on it I guess. Sad. I NEED another one of Gaston's implements! I don't have enough of them!
  13. Why do you have to be so far away and tempting me so!!?? I'd love that G48! Probably could find someone to get the rifles to.
  14. When I was in the parts business, there was a body shop in the next building up the street. I want to say there was a radiator repair service(?) in that corner building back then...1996-2008 for my time there. Just before the Picker's crew began to investigate the building. I miss that job and the people I met in Columbia. Knew every car dealer and body shop withing 25 miles. But it sure was a pain to negotiate the roads outside the city proper at times! LOL!
  15. So what's the price on the full package?
  16. We have to be proven "Innocent beyond a shadow of doubt." Criminals have to be proven guilty beyond all forms of measurement. Even then many get released!
  17. That's a nice working(hunting tree rats) rifle TG! If I didn't have a Marlin I lucked into years ago, I'd be adding a stop when we head to Knoxville soon. Have to pick up an old RCA Victrola Cabinet my brother-in-law gutted to make a bar cabinet. Wife not happy about that. It was hers. LOL.
  18. FWIW...I paid 400 for used piece of crap safe years ago. Lock tumblers came out of alignment during moving to my garage. Was never able to open it. Still here as a reminder to me. Actually I can't move it anymore with my back. Don't buy junk. Buy this one NOW! You will not regret it.
  19. Thanks for the critique. Well done. Still doesn't make me want to go. LOL! Frank Herbert is...well let's just say I can't read him and leave it at that. Put Walken in every scene and I'd go!
  20. Thought about one for a bit, but decided I like auto-loaders more for 22. LOL! Some time back I had a Taurus 22lr, in the mid 90s while I was running a sales route. Bought it one day and sold it a week or so later to another customer. Don't really remember any issues with. But did have a 4" Tracker 22 near 2010 or so. Awful! Couldn't get a decent group from it. Called Taurus CS and they sent a pickup for it. All I can say is that Taurus replaced it without comment. That was strange. Just sent a letter saying it was going to be replaced. Before I even took it home, I traded it on a 44 Tracker in the shop. Still have that one. But to your question. I would not hesitate to buy one if I came across it at a good price. I've had good service from Taurus products and their CS. The only other time I've had occassion to use CS was when the Millenium/PT line was recalled. Mine was junked and replaced with a 24/7 Pro model. A much better pistol.
  21. Now that's funny!
  22. Have 2 45acp revolvers. Love'em...not the "thump" though. Ruger New Model Vaquero with 4" barrel seems to shoot softer than the Smith Mountain Gun. But sure is harder to hold for me the the "birdshead" grip. But sure does look Purty!
  23. Pretty...might even almost say beautiful. But form and functionality must come before beauty when shooting heavy recoil loads in almost any size pistol frame. I personally, and just my opinion, prefer stock Smith Grips in most cases. Here...I do go along with your choice.
  24. Oh my stars and garters! You are causing me much lust! This is, as you know, an absolutely gorgeous pistol! The epitome of the carry 9! Always wanted something in and Ed Brown or Wilson...but always out of my price range. GLWS!
