  1. Pm's replied to. Those are side vents and it's 6' tall. The floor is a 6' x 10' rectangle and the nose piece gives you an additional 21". The nose piece is nice for highway travel speeds as it does not buffet in the wind.
  2. Homesteader Patriot, excellent condition, very low miles. LED lights, roof vent, side door, 6'Wx10'L, 6' tall with sidevents. The 6'x10' is actual floor space (rectangle) and the nose piece is another 21". It has 15" tires. There's a motorcycle front tire chock mounted in floor (easily removeable). I'll knock $50 off if someone doesn't want the wheel chock. I bought this trailer new, hauled my Harley twice to Alabama, before selling the Harley. Other than that, has only made a few local hauls of my ATV. $2500 Rockvale/Murfreesboro
  3. One double and two single Bladetech mag holders for double stack Glock mags. These were used for Model 17,19, and 34. I'm sure they fit many more. $25 for all of them ... SOLD
  4. Why not just include the 5x5 in a stage and give all those IDPA members a good warm-up for the upcoming state championship in Chattanooga?
  5. Black Cloud 3" 20 gauge #2 steel shot $15 per box. All boxes are 25 round count FTF Rockvale/Eagleville/Murfreesboro
  6. Wow, nice piece of machinery right there!
  7. Two questions come to mind. 1. So why are you hiding the gun? 2.And what are you doing with it when you retrieve it at a later date? How about encase it in concrete for your new grill foundation, then jackhammer it out when you one day need it. You'd probably have less damage than sending it to the bottom of the sea.
  8. Cool find. Bill Ruger made drills before firearms.
  9. Wow. Just not fair for a dedicated pig hunter! You're doing the U.S. a favor! How many more dogs do ya have to groom before you can turn that green card in for the permanent one?
  10. Of course the ticks are out, its almost turkey season!
  11. That's a lot of fish sticks right there!
  12. Bought this new, maybe has a half dozen rides on it. Good, thick heavy leather, size large, really cuts the wind. Sold the Harley, got a dual sport, Nobody uses black leather on a dual sport, so had to buy a dual sport jacket that costs twice as much ... go figure. $75
  13. When the hog is 3x bigger than Rob, ya know that's one big animal! Just say'n
  14. Wondered where you went Jim. You use to burn it up with a wheel gun at the steamplant matches aka, the old Gallatin Gun Club. Of course they've moved to Macon County, north of Hartsville. Now called MTSA, 175 Dry Branch Road, Dixon Springs, Tennessee 37057 There shooting IDPA 1st Saturday of the month. There's still a couple wheel gun guys there. BTW, you don't have to be a member to shoot the matches.
  15. Threw this on here as it's non-firing. Admins correct me if need be. Thanks. This is what the reenactors use, same weight, removeable magazine, working bolt and trigger, and butt stock is operational. No, it cannot be converted to work, its a REPLICA. Would look cool in someone's mancave. $150 $100
  16. That's such good news Robert. I continue to keep you in my prayers.
  17. The two ways we kill deer are by blood loss or hydrostatic shock, or both. Big slow bullets tend to kill by hemorrhaging while fast bullets, regardless of size, tend to drop game animals even faster by hydrostatic shock which pretty much snuffs out the nervous system, which is why many times when you pull that trigger on a high power caliber, the animal drops in its tracks. Using a slow, small pistol round to take a deer is minimal in my opinion. A .38 at 1200 FPS, even if it's a 158 gr., is still twice as slow as a 150 gr. out of a 30-30, which to most riflemen, is at the bottom of the power scale. It can be done, but there are better choices. I have and like taking deer with handguns myself, but I've always stuck to .44 magnum. Seems to work for me. I'm no ballistic expert, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express once.
  18. I'm using the factory ramp sights and there's no front hood on this model, which is good. Even on models I have with hoods, I always remove them. It allows more light to hit that sight I have found. I've also found that putting a dab of white paint on the front sight tip makes it a lot easier to pick up against a brown background, like the side of a deer. The rifle is a Winchester Centennial 66, made in 1966, in 30-30. When I bought it from my friend Terry W (TGO member) it had never been fired, nor loaded. I told him I was going to hurt the collectability and shoot the heck out of it. He was good with that. LOL ... actually, it's the nicest shooting 30-30 I've owned. It has a 26" octagon barrel which adds some FPS and really steadies out nice for off hand shots. I'm not a collector, I'm a shooter, so anything I have I shoot. It's a shame so many of the commemorative 94s are collecting dust. They're really made to shoot! https://www.chuckhawks.com/win_centennial_66.htm
  19. Just get closer to your game. I called in this bobcat and took him at 35 yards with my 1966 Winchester 30-30. My eyes are 65-years-old wore out, so yes, iron sights are tough, but still work for me close up. I limit my deer shots to 50 yards with irons. Not hard if you hunt thick woods. If I'm hunting open fields, I still have some scoped bolt guns for that.
  20. So sad. I always enjoyed talking to Mike at Sumners at our Wednesday night IDPA matches. An easier going guy you could not find nowhere. So missed already.
