    Show your Colts

    Greg:_____________ We are colt saa guys too. Remember, the colt saa was the first cartridge military sidearm. That alone makes them great. I like the "ponies"! Keep up the good work! Kind regards, Leroy
  3. Plus 1 on the nite sights. Got a set on an old 1911. They are a great upgrade. Kind regards, Leroy
  4. Thanks for the great link. I love this old military history stuff. Check this out: This is a thumbnail of a great painting of an action from the phillipine insurrection. I cant remember the artist. I'm sure it is somewhere in the site. Notice the 45. Check this out at: Prints & Posters - The U.S. Army in Action - U.S. Center of Military History You can use it as a wallpaper for your pc. The main link for all the wallpapers is here: U.S. Army in Action Downloads Check out the roster of Congressional Medals of Honor while you are there: Medal of Honor Recipients - Philippine Insurrection Thanks again! Kind regards, Leroy

  7. Adds a whole new meaning dont ya think? Keep up the good work. Kind regrds, Leroy
  8. Looks like Ms. Bridges acted on all the propaganda on solving domestic violence. She is shooting any POTENTIAL offenders. Ya got to wonder about what her group had been talking about at all them meetings. Ya got to admire her style. At least, she hasn't bought the "victim mentality" that many others have. Keep up the good work. Kind regards, Leroy
  9. I am brother! I believe it is Chicago Style politics at it's worst. Everything is for sale. railfan hit the nail straight on the head: Chief is exactly right; just as you all are: This is the solution! Keep up the good work. Kind regards, Leroy
  10. I like it!! The truth is comming out!! Even in Missouri; a blue state, HEHEHE Leroy
  11. I like it!! Greg did a great job!! Kind regards, Leroy
  12. JP:____________ Dont worry about shooting reloads in a glock 357 sig. I reload for 'em. Use once fired brass all the time. I recommend these guys for brass: Products . Brass is well processed and inexpensive. We use Accurate Arms #9 powder with a 13.0 grain charge weight 124 grain hollow points. We shoot them thru a baby glock (33). They will clock about 1275 fps out of the short barrel (..a bit more than 3 inches...) with the 13.0 grain AA #9 powder. This is a real velocity measured with a Chrony Chronograph; not a load book "guestimate". We have shot 300 to 400 rounds thru the little glock with no adverse effects. No fouling and very little powder residue. Accuracy is excellent. The sig is an accurate and powerful round. The best, i believe, for the nine mm. I believe the sig is all that was claimed for the 9mm years ago when the Air Force tried to tell everybody that the 9mm was superior to the old war horse, the 45 acp -- but that is another story ---hehehe. I always buy what is on sale either at Powder Valley or Midway when i shop for bullets. We have also loaded AA#9 and Ranier Plated bullets for practice. They are the truncated cone flat nose type. Make sure whatever bullet you use will work in a 357 sig. Some 9mm bullets are a long ogive (the curve of the nose) and the short neck of the sig won't hold them. You can always look at the manufacturers specs for the bullets to tell if they are ok for the sig. In general, the sig bullets are truncated cone type bullets. Make sure that you full length size and taper crimp the reloads (.. this works on most all semiauto pistols...). You can't see the crimp. Just measure it with your dial calipers (... all reloaders need dial calipers...). The crimp die sizes the neck of the round down about 2 to no more than 3 thousands to hold the bullet in place. Hope this helps. Kind regards, Leroy
  13. Be sure to let us know how it works out. Kind regrds, Leroy
  14. All:______________ Check this little bit of news out: Obama Now Selling Judgeships for Health Care Votes? | The Weekly Standard I'm reminded of Homer Stokes' great line from the movie "Oh Brother Where Art Thou": ...we cant stand fo mo years of Pappy O'Daniel; fo mo years of rascalism, chronyism, nepotism, and service to the enemy...". Obama will make the radical republican crooks of the post civil war era of Reconstruction look like "minor leaguers" by the time his term is over. Remember, there is an election in November. Food for thought Leroy
  15. Thanks. We'll check it out the next time we go down. Kind regards, Leroy
  16. It looks great!! I like it. Kind regards, Leroy
  17. aj:____________ Here is some stuff from Brownells: KG PRODUCTS : SITE KOTE - World's Largest Supplier of Firearm Accessories, Gun Parts and Gunsmithing Tools BRIGHT SIGHTS : BRIGHTSIGHTS GUN SIGHT COATING - World's Largest Supplier of Firearm Accessories, Gun Parts and Gunsmithing Tools Have used the "ghost glow" on front rifle type sight (on shotgun). We also used to use fingernail polish back in the old days. You might want to try that. It's cheap and you can take it off easily. I have also used the Testor's hobby paints that you find next to the plastic models of airplanes, etc. Easy to take off too. I have one revolver with flat white on the front sight. Works really well. Hope this helps. Kind regards, Leroy
  18. There is great truth in this post. I heartily agree. Check this out: http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/tennessee-politics-legislation/35469-wamp-vs-haslam-5.html#post465952 We could use some "fresh" non-polititians. Ramsey may be the man. Keep up the good work. Kind regards, Leroy
  19. Strick:______________ Where is this little depot? My 21 yr old and i are train photo guys. By the way; great pictures!!! Kind regards, Leroy
  20. McWerter is trying to ride his dad's coattails into office. Ned McWherter was a pretty reasonable "Blue Dog" Democrat governor who served two terms (1986-1995). As i remember, he was a gun owner and hunter. He made lots of money in the trucking business. Here is the real reason McWerter won: I believe he is still alive. Check out the bio here: Ned McWherter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Sounds like the boy is a chump educated by the socialist idiots that seem to be in power in the presently constituted Demorat Party. Let's hope he takes a real whipping everywhere. Hope this helps. Leroy
  21. Amen brother!! An sp 101 is a great thing. It is everything that a beefed up smith j frame should be. Cant go wrong with one. Kind regards, Leroy
  22. Set:_________ Aint it the truth!!! Your luck is like mine. I'd like to have a good tank myself. It might come in handy. I loved the pictures. Kind regards and thanks for being on your toes; always lookin out you know. Leroy
  23. pig:___________ I would try 7.0 grains of unique. The old time working load for a 44 special is 7.5 of unique with a 240 to 250 grain bullet. The 7.0 grain load is just a ratio to that (250/265). Having said that; i would only shoot these reloads in a full size revolver. We use the 7.5 grain load with 250 grain SWC's in n frame smiths, ruger sa, and colt saa all the time. I'ts pretty heavy; about 900 fps. If you want it lighter, go down to 6.5 grains of Unique. Check out this website for some interesting data: Dedicated to Elmer Keith Hope this helps. Kind regards, Leroy
  24. Wyld:___________ Had one of these problems years ago when i was a young man (..a long time ago; over 40 years...didnt care what people thought, sick and tired of being "sick and tired", ect. ...). Shot a dog after talking to a life-long neighbor about keeping it up. Started a feud what went on for years. Moral of this story: This aint a dog protection thing its a "neighbor thing"; especially if you live in a rural or small town area. My advice: Talk to your neighbor and talk to him straight. Dont abuse him; simply tell him you are concerned about the dogs being dangerous to you and others. Ask him to make sure the kennel keeps them in. You always have the right to defend yourself on your own property. That being said; where i come from, shooting a dog is right up there with shooting a person (...and i aint an animal rights advocate...). I noticed from your avatar you are from Fayetville. My guess is that people there hold dogs in high regard. It could be high enough to cause a serious reprisal for killing a dog that doesnt include the law. I aint trying to scare ya; im asking you to think deeply about what could happen. Food for thought Kind regards, Leroy
  25. Years ago there was a process for Federal non-violent felon gun rights reinstatement. I suspect there are problems (..as others have posted...) for the State of Tennessee reinstatement. Leroy
