  1. If your local fast-food joints are located close enough together and you strategically plan the mission at the proper time of the evening......Then you'll feast like a King! And I don't mean that creepy human bobble-head from BK.
  2. Wow! I mean Wow! Glad she was able to stand up for herself. Was the filthy bum threatening?
  3. Oddly enough in the Knoxville area, of which there is no shortage of Wal-Marts by any means, they all sell guns except the two in West Knoxville. Those are the two that have the worst ammo selections and shortages it seems.
  4. What everybody else gets.
  5. Wise words. Luckily, I have the sense to behave with many of those tenets in mind.
  6. Dry ribs are the only ribs.
  7. Clean it with Hoppe's #9 if the bore is dirty. Get some CLP Collector's oil to put on the metal. Leave the stock alone. If you do feel the need to take it to a 'smith, make sure he's old and knows mil-surp. Personally, I would have to interview them myself, but that's me. I take it seriously.
  8. A message from the subconcious would be highly significant.
  9. Bingo! You both win....well, nothing. Maybe bragging rights somewhere. Don't know this was in my head today, but I've learned it's best not to ask.
  10. Man. I'm speechless. That gun is worth a mint! The stock alone with original Winchester cartouche is worth a coupla hundred $. Most parts should have markings of some kind. Based on your pictures I'll bet many have a W or WRA on them. Please promise one thing: you will never, ever try to sand the stock, refininsh the metal or otherwise bubba up this beautiful gun! BTW, if it's truly original, it just might have made it way out of the "chain of command" by other means. With rare exception ALL M1 Carbines were rearsenaled, primarily with adjustable rear sights and barrel band with bayonet mount and whatever else was necessary.
  11. Some ammo whore snagged it all up.
  12. Forgot to add...I see no reason not to go shoot it (just a little), other than the scarcity and price of .30 carbine ammo right now. How long did your grandfather have it?
  13. Sure wish you could make it. Has your Czech perfume arrived?
  14. All I can tell you with any certainty is that the first serial number block assigned to Winchester is 1,000,000 - 1,349,000. (Technically they produced #6-10, but that's most likely prototypes). So your Winny is very early. First production run. I thought my books had date charts but they don't. However I'm pretty sure that it's 1942-43. There is an endless supply of information on these awesome guns on the CMP forum. Ask there and you'll have an answer. Quick. Would love to see some Pics! Might be able to help even more.
  15. Aah, Bach. That is highly significant. Anyone know where those come from? Hint: TV show.
  16. coldblackwind already has one out back.... http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/hunting/23392-theres-superhighway-trail-behind-me-house.html The reason I say that is the pic of the turdage that's somewhere in that thread. Looks like it might be Elk size.
  17. Midway has some HotShot for $23.49. That's the best I've seen.
  18. This guy has diarrhea of the mouth, or keyboard.
