David is wise, David is good. My Sig P-365 9mm made all of my .380s obsolete. Some people have physical limitations that may prevent them from being able to operate a small 9mm and to those people the .380 is an option. Since my reverse shoulder replacement surgery, I have gone back to .380s and I don't feel under gunned but roaming the recesses of Harris Teeter is about my limit these days.

If it has an octagonal barrel, don't buy it. I had a Henry Big Boy in .357 magnum. The rifle was so barrel heavy that I got mad every time I shot it. I sold it. It is way out of balance compared to my Winchester 30-30 from the 1950s.

BUT I just had my shoulder replaced and cannot shoot it for 6 months! It was made in Turkey. Does anyone have one of these and can give me some beta?

You went out to pee? ! We must be related somehow!

My little buddy Jamie James. Bichon Frize. I noticed that he sleeps in one particular place on the couch in the living room. I went over one morning to pet him and I noticed that from his sleeping spot he could see the driveway, the road, the back door, the front door and the hallway, all from this one spot. At night, I can tell if he growls, whether it's a dog or a person.

They say people need to laugh out loud at least once a day to stay healthy. I am feeling healthy, thanks pal.

Thanks for the post Turkeydad! I have many handguns but none of them are optic ready. I am still using iron sites. I just cannot justify spending money on a pistol with red dot sites that will make my other carry guns obsolete........I know, that is flawed logic. I am recovering from a shoulder replacement now and cannot shoot anyway. That will give me time to think about it.

I remember watching the TV show called "The FBI", back in the.........a long time ago. Efferum Zimbalist Jr, could down a helicopter with his snub nosed .38. I am recovering from a shoulder replacement on my shooting hand. I am having to carry on my left side. I wish I had practiced more shooting left-handed.

That is great! A Glock 17 goes bang every time!

THERE WILL BE NO MORE JOY!

HEY HAMMAS. HELL IS COMING TO BREAKFAST!

Say hello to my little friend! This little buddy has won a place of respect in my carry collection.

I have Crimson Trace lasers for my G-19, 1911 and P-238. Yet I only have one in use right now on my Glock that is on my bedside table. The other two are in the safe. I took them off my carry guns because if I ever have to draw on someone, I want it to be as simple as possible. I am kind of old school. No red dot sights, no lasers on my carry guns and no high dollar race guns. I prefer carrying a J-frame revolver with a P-238 or P-365 as a back up. I recently purchased a Charter Arms Bulldog 44sp. I love it! a big fat slow moving bullet.

He lives in the Netherlands presently. He is still a citizen of Israel. He got on the plane to come to the USA wearing a MAGA hat. I met him at Bass Pro Shops when I was wearing a "Proud to Support Israel" shirt. We got to talking and I invited him to come to the range and shoot. He kept an M-4 inside the Merkava tank. He and his brother are going to come to America, rent a plane and fly to every state in the union. His brother is an airline pilot, formally F-16 pilot.

I love me a good wheel gun. I like to carry a S&W 38sp or a Chater Arms Bulldog 44sp. I can draw the S&W faster than any handgun I own. "I can put two in your guts before you can clear leather with 9mm race gun". The 44sp is just big and loud. The only problem is the lack of ammo capacity. So, I carry a P-365 as a backup.

I finally got to shoot this B-1911 with an Israeli friend of mine. We put 200 rounds of WWB through it with nothing but smiles! My friend is not allowed to own a firearm, but that law has changed recently. He was a commander of a Merkava tank so now he is allowed to own a pistol. He says it will be a 1911. That son of a gun out shot me, which isn't saying much. The Bersa B-1911 is a fine pistol! My other 1911 is a Colt, which is 100% reliable.

Thank you papa61. I will try a saddle maker!

This old USAF parka and I have been through some seriously cold weather together. I bought it at Friedman's Army Surplus in NashVegas in 1979 (when Nashville was a big, small town) The problem is that the zipper has rotted out and needs to be replaced. The local seamstress says it is too thick to use with her sewing machine. Since then, I have tried an upholsterer, a curtain maker, and a tent maker. None of them want to replace anything. As a last resort I will sew it myself and screw it up. That is why I am asking TGO for any advice. The man in this picture was captured on my ring camera. I don't know who it is but he is strikingly handsome.

That is a great family heirloom! My great grandfather Teal was the sheriff of Barbour County Alabama (Eufaula/Clayton) back in the 1890-1920s. One day a prisoner's wife bought a cake to the jail house for her husband. Grandpa said "This cake is so big we should share it with everybody." When he cut open the cake he found a Smith and Wesson .32 break top revolver in it. We called it the cake gun. My grandmother gave it to me when I lived in East Nashville. It was stolen and I never saw it again. I still get upset when I think about it. You take care of that revolver, ya hear? This is not the pistol......

You will need to drop a grand to get this pistol. When I get to shoot it I will post the results.

They are made right here in the good old USA. Kennesaw Georgia. They are hand fit by one gunsmith. It is tight! No rattles. 3.5 lb trigger. I haven't shot it yet.

This isn't funny but it is ironic
