  1. I can't understand the fascination with hot dogs, myself. A six inch tube stuffed with puréed lips, arseholes & floor sweepings never held that much of a gastronomic appeal to me. Once you've had a proper English butcher's sausage, filled with pork & herbs, no factory produced turd will ever substitute.
  2. East. Waaaay East. I got onto a friend's permission near Townsend & hunted there a couple of weekends ago. Lots & lots of hog sign up in the mountains, but I'm told you've got to know someone that owns land to have even a remote chance of hunting over there. Buy a 'bama/Georgia license & go nuts! It's probably cheaper & easier!
  3. No problem at all, as long as you stay at 'sensible' distances. Remember to keep your shot low & forward.
  4. I've had both & still own the PF2. The Sitka looks like a nice idea, but frankly it's a pain in the ass when you've got more than a couple of pounds in it. It slides around all over the place, your shoulder fatigues a lot quicker & 'rotating it to the front' turns it upside down & all your crap falls out (maybe I did that bit wrong....?) Take it off & you can wear it on your chest, but once you've got it off, you can access your stuff anyway, same a 'proper' backpack. The PALS stuff al over the place is a waste of material too. Tacticool? Yes. Practical applications? None.
  5. I can eat these until I'm sick.....
  6. Can't you think of a way of maybe plugging her mouth while she's asleep?
  7. It's true, accounts can get hacked. In fact mine has been. I'm not even posting this reply! Guns are gay. See?!?! That's not the kind of thing I would post at all! The security on my account is obviously ridiculous. I wonder if I should buy my account a gun (Not that I would, they're gay & this isn't even my account!) GGAAAARRGH!! STOP posting on my account you dirty hacker!
  8. True, true. An awesome movie without a doubt, but Matthew Quigley ain't no Tell Sackett! Tell Sackett could easily whoop (dare I say it.........) Chuck Norris's butt. Hell, he'd probably throw John Wayne outta the way to get to a fight!
  9. Again Sam Elliot out tough's Tom Selleck in The Sackets & the Shadowriders!
  10. Steve McQueen or Sam Elliot (NO-ONE else thinks Sam Elliot????) I'm 50/50 split 'tween the two.

    WHAT????

    Whosaidwhotowhut now?
  12. You mean rat gun, right? Even if sawing off a gun to 18" is legal, shooting snakes ain't.
  13. "No I didn't........" Or ".......asked for a six inch PIANist!!!! What smell?..."
  14. Sorry, not an AR platform, but I ain't got that kinda cash! I finally managed, after a few months of looking, to find a good condition Marlin 882SS on which to base my varminter project. I really like the idea of a .22WMR I know it's no long-range 'yote dropper like a 22-250 or .223, but it's cheap to feed, accurrate as all get out (now) & I'm told, more than adequate for upto 100-125yd shots Upto now I've done a few 'backyard' trigger mods to get the pull down from a frankly ridiculous 7-1/2 pounds to a far more grouping-friendly 3 pounds & I've added a 4-16 x 40 AO scope. Right now I'm gnawing at my fingernails waiting to get my stock blank (one of these......) The stock is, apparrently, 50% inlet for the action & will need a lot of work & final finishing. Hopefully in 10-12 weeks I should be able to show off the finished article!
  15. I'm really wanting to try my hand at a few coyotes. Does anyone know of any populations on public land around Franklin/Coffee counties? I'm thinking possibly Bear Hollow, Flintville Hatchery or similar areas. I don't have access to any private land, so WMAs are my only option (I think. Y'all may know better! )
  16. Sorryfor any spelling mistakes, just been out patternig my gun so I'm doing this left-handed! (MAN those 3-1/2" shells hurt!) Any of you use an 870 Express fo turkeys? What haveyou foundas a good patterning load? I'm shooting a 28" barrel with extra full choke. I tried the 3-1/2" Winchester Supremes with 2oz of no.5 It seems to pattern OK out to 30yds, but breaks up considerably at 40, with only 4 or 5 hits in the head/neck area. I don't want to go dump a load more cash on shells I'll never use if I can get a litte up-front advice. Oh, I believe I'd like to drop to a 3" shell too. My shoulder is frikkin' KILLING me after 6 shots!
  17. Wish someone had one for sale in .22 MAG! Beautiful li'l varmint gun.
  18. Too much Sorry, but I think it's gone from uber classy to sightly tacky. Kinda like a 'My other toy has ****' sticker on a Bentley.
  19. That could be me. Looks a lot like damascus steel. Here's a few examples I've produced in my own forge..... Many, many people are producing Damascus (pattern welded) steels. The 'art' of pattern welding different steel compositons into a cohesive, contrasting billet & then working it into cool & funky items such as this, is alive & well the world over! Damascus steel, or more correctly, Damascene forge-welded steel is quite simply a blend of different simple steels welded together in the forge, to benefeit from the different qualities of each. The pattern, originally speaking, is purely accidental. The pattern is revealed in a process of etching & polishing. There are some spectacular forge-welders around today, producing very intricate mosaic patterns in steel. There's even a trade-name, Damasteel, for stainless damascus (Which I suspect the slide to be) More on topic.....That slide is stunning! Although I now want to buy a 1911
  20. Anybody do any? Where do you go? I've just got my boat rigged up for the spring & I'm looking for suggestions of where to go shoot a few carp. I've fished with a few buddys on their boat below Nickajack dam, but I'm new to boats & don't have the confidence to go play on the river just yet. I'm looking for lake suggestions, if anyone has any.
  21. I'm just looking for an 'Introduction to Handguns' course, or something similar, as we speak.
  22. Similar.... I've not been able to find a picture identical to this gun, but from what I've been able to discover, there were several factories in Eibar, Spain that manufactured Smith model 10 & Colt Police copies in 32WCF caliber during the late '20s through to the early '40s. I think that mine was made by FRN, but the stamping is very worn & hard to read.
