  1. Forget those little plastic toys. Get a Browning Buckmark and actually hit what you aim at. This is a target quality gun at a reasonable price.
  2. Start by checking headstamps on the cartridges. There are several good headstamp reference sites on the internet. Just do a search. If you have the original ammo cans, those markings can also help. https://cartridgecollectors.org/headstamp-codes/ Mil-surp .30-06 ammo ( M2 Ball) comes in a multitude of brands. U.S. made ammo is always preferred. The Greek HXP ammo is considered some of the best. OTOH Korean ammo is known to be corrosive. It'll work, just be sure to clean the rifle good soon after shooting.
  3. I'm wondering. Do you have a "case" gauge or a "cartridge" gauge? Possibly your gauge is for measuring empty cases before reloading.
  4. Well, all those corporations have to pay for their politicians somehow.
  5. My wife had one of those and loved it! Great little guns. GLWS.
  6. Not all instructors are experts.
  7. Depends on who your roommates are. Some are much better than others. My oldest son shared a house with a "friend" and his wife. They finally recently moved out. Thank God!
  8. The gun was made in 2016. Yes, its a single stack.
  9. The new owner will likely divide it up, build a bunch of houses and list at $250,000 or more each.
  10. Gun is in excellent condition. Made in 2008 in Germany. Box, manual and 3 magazines. Extra set of Hogue rubber grips. Unfortunately, the night sights are dead. $600 firm. Open to trades. No shotguns, no plastic. Must be Tennessee resident, legal to buy a gun, willing to show ID and sign bill of sale.
  11. When my younger son got married, he and his new bride went house hunting. They both have good jobs and the bank had already pre-approved a home loan. It took them over a year to find a house. Every time they found one they liked, those real estate corporations would swoop in and out bid them. Every single time! They finally had to go to a new subdivision 20 miles out of town and have a house built. So far they're managing, but I worry that it may prove more than they can really afford. There needs to be a law that single family dwellings can only be sold to single families. These corporations are raking in millions while screwing over people who actually need a home.
  12. Open the pictures in paint and reduce their size.
  13. I'm also unhappy with the price of groceries these days. But I'm old, retired, live alone and financially secure. I don't like it, but I do just fine. For those who do struggle, the internet is plumb full of info on how to make every grocery dollar count. You won't eat fancy, but you will eat. But then some people refuse to substitute hamburger for steak. They're also real fond of fast food and restaurants . Much of their problem is in their own dietary habits and tastes. As for mortgages, then you hit upon one of my pet peeves. For individuals, the housing market sucks! Big real estate corporations are buying up single family dwellings all over the country. Often buying sight unseen and for thousands over asking prices. First time home buyers can't compete with that. Or worse, end up buying more house than they can actually afford because that's all there is out there. For many young couples, the dream of buying a home is just that, a dream.
  14. I'll be there!
  15. Actually, it looks exactly like a stainless version of the 4th Issue Police Positive. Check my picture above. That's it on the bottom left. There's also a couple of Diamondbacks in that same pic. 4" .38 and a 6" .22. Yeah, I'd like to see Colt bring those back as well.
