  1. Very Nice!!!!  Do you have some extra barrels? 

     

    7.62 X 54R can throw an awesome fireball and is way to fun to shoot at night.  I've still got a couple of 1975 vintage unopened crates of this stuff stashed away somewhere.  I gave less for the crate of two spam cans than what one can is going for these days.  Once again, a story of the good old days and wished I had bought more!

  2. After Rick played punching bag with the Zead head to mess up the nose. Best line of all to date was by the Hilltop guy talking to Rick. " The Saviors are scary but these pricks have nothing on you".

  3. Ok, so these were once selective fire demilled AK 47s just missing the barrel, receiver and FA parts.  What parts make it FA, and is the receiver drilled differently between a FA and semi?  I now on an M4 there is an extra hole on the lower receiver, is there a difference in receivers on an AK?

     

    The full auto receiver will have an extra hole for the auto sear.  My understanding is the the BATFE guys consider an AK receiver with a 3rd hole a full auto gun even if it has no auto sear installed.  I could be wrong about this but just what I recall at the moment.

  4. NO! I have to call the county 4 or 5 times a year because people keep stealing the damn things! :D

     

    Congrats on your draw, I hope you have a successful hunt!

     

    I used to live on Tom Petty Road. The county finally changed the name of the road but only after replacing the sign about 20 times.  The current street sign has been there 20 plus years.

  5. I always liked this old saying, don't know where it came from.

    It came from a poem written by Jeff Coopers granddaughter.

     

    "Grandpa's Lesson."

    Pappy took to drinkin' back when I was barely three.
    Ma got pretty quiet. She was frettin', you could see.
    So I was sent to Grandpa and he raised me up real good.
    He taught me what I oughta and he taught me what I should.

    I learned a heap 'o lessons from the yarns he liked to tell.
    There's one I won't forget because I learned it 'speshly well.
    There jist ain't many folk who live a peaceful, carefree life.
    Along with all the good times there'll be lotsa grief and strife.

    But there ain't many troubles that a man caint fix
    With seven hundred dollars and a thirty ought six."

    Grandpa courted Grandma near the town of old Cheyenne.
    Her daddy was cantankerous - a very greedy man.
    He wouldn't give permission for a fancy wedding day
    'Til grandpa paid a dowry - biggest ever people say.

    Her daddy softened up when Grandpa said that he could fix
    Him up with seven hundred dollars and a thirty ought six.

    Grandpa herded cattle down around Jalisco way.
    Ended up behind some iron bars one dusty day.
    Seems the local jefe craved my Grandpa's pinto mare.
    Grandpa wouldn't sell her so he lit on out of there.

    Didn't take much doin' 'cept a couple special tricks
    Plus seven hundred dollars and his thirty ought six.

    Then there was that Faro game near San Francisco Bay.
    Grandpa's cards was smokin' hot and he took all one day.
    He woke up nearly naked in a ditch next early morn'.
    With nothin' but his flannel shirt, and it was ripped and torn.

    Those others were professionals and they don't play for kicks.
    He lost seven hundred dollars and his thirty ought six.

    He begged some woolen trousers off the local storekeep there
    Who loaned him both a pony and a rifle on a dare.
    He caught those thievin' cardsharks at another Faro game.
    He got back all his property and also his good name.

    He left one bleedin' badly and another mostly lame.
    My Grandpa's trusty rifle shoots just where you choose to aim.

    Grandpa's slowin' down a bit and just the other night
    He handed me his rifle and a box sealed up real tight.
    He fixed me with them pale grey eyes and this is what he said,
    "You're awful young but steady too and I will soon be dead.

    I'll bet this here old rifle and this honest money too
    Will come in mighty handy just as readily for you.
    There jist ain't many folk who lead a carefree peaceful life.
    Along with times of happiness, there's always woe and strife.

    But.....ain't many troubles that a man caint fix
    with seven hundred dollars and his thirty ought six."

  6. Would anyone like to break out the Enigma machine and decode this thread for the uninformed among us?

    Ahh you've done it now LagerHead!  The mention of Enigma machine and decoding is going to turn this thread into matter of national security requiring a magistrate judge court ordered ruling to bring Steve Jobs back from the dead to break the encryption code needed to follow this thread.

  7. You are the man. But still one incorrect. Yes the smaller one is a 357 mag necked down to a 25 cal to be a 256 win mag. The one that is left is the ole 6.5 jap to finis it off.

    So the list is :
    9mm, 45acp, 38spl, 256 win mag, 32-20win, 357 mag, 41 mag, 44 mag, .223, 22-250, 225 win, 30-30, 35rem, 44-70, 444marlin, 243 win, 7.62x54r, 6.5 jap, 30-06, 7mm rem mag,& the ole 12 ga.

     

    That is a nice collection you have there.  I have always been drawn to odd calibers.  The 6.5 Jap was a tough one.  There are several calibers you could line up in that size range that would be hard to identify by just a picture.

     

    I remember way back in the day I was in a gun shop and like always I'm drawn to the gun that does not fit in with the others. It was the .256 Ruger Hawkeye single shot.  I left with a Ruger that day but not the Hawkeye.  Another one of those I wish I had it to do over again stories.

  8. Charo was old before I was new (31) I'd say she has held up friggin great. Plus she can shred on the guitar like nobody's business.

    Charo = super hot.

     

    This is the one I saw.  I suppose at 74 she still has some cuchi, cuchi cuchi left in her.
