  1. Same here. When it gets dry, put something slick on it. Don't overthink it.
  2. Adjustable sights are the difference between the two.
  3. If it's factory nickel, and it appears to be from the pics, it should have an N stamped on the grip frame under the grips; probably on the cylinder as well.   I'd buy a new in the box example of that revolver if I wanted one that looked like new. You'll spend a lot of money having this one refinished, and it'll be worth no more, and probably less than it is today. Look at it this way....it has character.   I have new in the box guns that I simply don't enjoy. The ones in similar shape to this one get a LOT of use. I do enjoy them.   That Tyler-T grip on it is a pretty sought after item by it's self.   I suggest you buy some 38 Special ammo and give her a go just as it is. If you aren't familiar with 50's vintage K frame Smiths, you will fall in love. I've shot a limit of squirrels before with a model 10, and I'm a lousy shot with a handgun.   If the hammer and trigger work smoothly, it probably wouldn't benefit much from cleaning. It's pretty airtight under the sideplates.   You have a very special friend. :up:
  4. Their basic service work is done at TDOT vehicle maintenance garages. The starting pay sucks. Otherwise, it seems to be a pretty good gig.   I believe major work is done at dealerships.   http://www.tn.gov/dohr/employment/applicant.shtml
  5. Sorry, my bad.
  6. I'd like some $300 tires!   Seriously, I've driven a couple of Camrys Well beyond 200k with no work to the front end. Has this car been wrecked or otherwise abused?   That being said, struts are a wear item and need to be replaced periodically.   $1100 sounds fair assuming you aren't getting crap tires.

    You'd be correct.
  8. Who in our lifetime was a better president?
  9. Ten rounds yesterday, and you can see clearly from my shoulder the shape of the buttplate in purple.
  10. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6c6eUeoa9Q You won't find anything this good on the radio!!!!!!!!!!!
  11. The m44 is a neat battle rifle. I think the 91/30 would make a good frog gig, pry bar, or weenie roasting stick.
  12. That's about what I had pictured in my mind. I still can't imagine a setup that would work on the non drive axle.
  13. I recently picked up a 91/30 from a fellow TGO member. I can attest that it has some very noticeable recoil as well. That being said, I'm not much of a magnum guy. It may be the difference in stock shape or something else, but it definitely is less enjoyable to shoot than a standard weight Model 70 Winchester in 30-06.   A 22 lr it's not.
  14. I'd be interested to see that setup.
  15. Happens to me a lot.....someone keeps on and on wanting to know what I think. They won't stop, so finally I give in and tell them what I think. Then they leave all pizzed off. All because they couldn't mind their own business. .....and my wife wonders why I'm, not a "people person". :shake:
  16. If it's like the earlier version, it won't shoot anything.
  17. Right. If you don't want him, chances are your neighbor won't be too happy about receiving him as a gift from you either.
  18. No it isn't. You'll want to look around while your there, and ask some questions as well.
  19. Have you looked at Tandy Leather in Antioch?
  20. That's the way the ball bounces.   I recently helped my son build a cheapie AR, and I'll be d@mned if it won't outshoot anything I own!   You never know til you shoot it.
  21. It didn't end well either. We did get to meet pitcher Jordan Sheffield's family, as well as Vanderbilt's athletic director and wife.   After two rain delays and a poor performance, Vandy handed the SEC trophy to Florida.
  22. Your asking this on a GUN forum? :shake: :shake:
  23. He was making sure you knew he wasn't a Jenny! :clap:
  24. I just got an email from Midway for $10 off $100 order, or $15 off a $150 order.
  25. I've ordered a LOT of stuff from Palmetto. Although I've heard horror stories of their shipping, everything has showed up here within a week.
