Ruger MK II & III are a blast to shoot. Top gun in the pic is my MK II that used to have the slab side barrel in the bottom of pic on it. It was a tack driver. The 2nd gun in the pic is my MK III. You can never have to many .22's

cause I sure didn't. All I saw is one rabbit. Heard a lot of coyotes before dawn but didn't see any.

Since deer season opens tomorrow let share some of our favorite recipes. Here is one of my favorites: Carne Asada Venison Put the following ingredients into a blender: 1 jar (16oz) of your favorite salsa 1/2 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup lime juice 1 packet Lipton Onion soup mix Blend until smooth. Take your favorite cut of meat and pour the blended mixture over the meat. I usually use a ziplock back or tupperware. Reserve some of the mixture for brushing on while grilling and some as a dipping sauce. Let this marinate overnight at least but I usually let it marinate for 2 days. The acids from the salsa and lime juice really help tenderize the meat. When ready to cook take the meat out of the marinade and throw the marinade away. You can now either pan fry it or throw it on the grill. What ever you do don't cook it past medium rare. Thats some good eating right there.

Calling Musicman....

I think Kwik only shops at Opry Mills

Really cool pics Brent. I was out putting the final touches on a ground blind yesterday. Can't wait for Saturday morning!

FWIW - Here is what Blue Book says: MODEL 1934 - 7.65mm or .380 ACP cal., (9mm Corto cal.), 3 3/8 in. barrel, fixed sights, blue, plastic grips, Italy's service weapon in WWII, one of the most common Beretta pistols - over one million manufactured between 1934-80, many of the military pistols have a parkerized finish, usually fit with metal-backed grips, later guns have an alphabetical prefix. Post-war production (1946) serial numbers start with C00001. Grading 100% 98% 95% 90% 80% 70% 60% $550 $425 $325 $275 $200 $175 $150 Add 10% for high polish, unless post-war production. Add 20% for Italian Air Force. Add 300% for post-war commercial deluxe pistols which were engraved, gold plated, and cased with a spare mag. and cleaning brush.

There is just something primal about touching off a round that leaves a big ole hole. I gets me all fired up when I am out shooting them. Here is what I have in the big bores: Ruger African in .375 Ruger - some consider the .375 Ruger/.375 H&H to be medium bore rounds but I consider them the starting point for big bores. My .375 Ruger delivers 2840fps and 4835 ft-lbs at the muzzle with a 270gr bullet. Marlin 1895 in 45-70 - older cartridge but still leaves a big hole. It produces 1790 fps and 2158 ft-lbs with a 325gr bullet. The big daddy of them all: Armalite AR-50 in 50 bmg it produces 2910 fps and 12,500 ft-lbs with a 699gr bullet. So who else here likes shooting big bores and what do you shoot?

Just picked up a 100rd box of wwb at Wally World for $20. I think that is about the going rate. What is everybody else paying for 9mm target ammo?

That rocks!!

Anybody notice that this for sale in San Francisco? I didn't think they had any manly men there...

Always makes me sleepy after just a little bit...

Leverguns are a lot of fun. Here is mine in 45-70. I think one in .357 would be cool. I also have a henry levergun in .22.

Used to be...now he is Vic Mackey. Vic is a little darker than the commish.

Peta Wilson rocks. I loved her in La Femme Nikita!

No. I figured the guys changing my oil really didn't have anything to do with it. I am going to send corporate an email.

I stopped by Valvoline Instant Oil Change at lunch today to get my oil changed. They offer free wifi. So I hoped on the laptop and headed to TGO to see what was going on. Instead of TGO's home page I was directed to Valvoline's internet filter. TGO is a prohibited site because it falls under the category of weapons. What a bunch of B.S. Their lobby is not posted but they are obviously not gun friendly. Just thought I would get the word out.

TCU...Go Frogs!!!

sent you a pm

Saving Grace has become one of my favorites. I also like The Shield. I will be glad when the new season starts.

I was up in a ladder stand deer hunting. About 100 yards away I heard a flock of turkeys go nuts. I figured either a bobcat or coyote had jumped them. Well about 3 minutes later here comes mister bobcat down the trail. A 165gr 30-06 round put him down hard and fast. I admit that a 30-06 is a little overkill for a 30lb bobcat but that is all I had with me.

I picked up a Springfield 1911 in 9mm a couple of months ago. Finally got out to shoot it last week. Fun target gun. Accurate and very little recoil.

I have both. The suppressed one in the pic is a MKII and the middle one is a MKIII. The MKII has been a very reliable and accurate gun for many years and thousands of rounds. The MKIII has also been very reliable but I only have about 500 rounds through it. The trigger is better in the MKII in my opinion. Both are great guns. If I was going to buy another, it would probably by a MKII. Shot a Buckmark for the first time a couple of weeks ago. It was a good feeling little gun.

Haven't used it yet. Been to lazy to get the ladder out and climb up to the gutters. Fall is coming so I am sure it will get used soon.
