The career was always a means to an end for me. Ended up working 2+ years longer than the original plan when hired of 30 years, but retired when I was 57, and have been busier in retirement than when I was employed. I had always told my kid the job was just there to support my hobbies. Think...

This is what I've seen as well. My wealthy uncle has run his own businesses all his life and at 89 is still working. Currently land development and cattle. (I'm trying to be that favorite nephew, lol)

These groups look better than a lot of targets I've seen. Are these B2s and their bombs considered MOA? Asking for a friend....Oh, and do they come in a left handed version?

And once again Trump is misquoted. This is NOT what he said, "The US entered the war two days after President Trump said he wanted to allow a two-week window to give diplomacy a chance." He said he would decide by the end of the next 2 weeks. Huge difference. But no surprise the news outlets...

Do these policies cover firearms while traveling? Either domestically or internationally?

PM sent

I wouldn't brief Congress until after the initial action. Wouldn't trust a lot of the current members of either branch to hold their tongue.

Nope. Just make sure there's no drips hanging or little fine ridges and hang it to dry. 20 minutes a week is a small effort with beautiful end results. I do actually keep a little sticky note close by that I note the date of each coat, otherwise I lose track, lol. (and a day or 2 either side of...

The reason you're experiencing an easily scratched, "soft" finish, is due to the oil taking literally months & months to actually begin drying when it is applied in what amounts to a very thick coat and gets sealed in by the top coat. Even allowing just 24 hrs between coats will allow each coat...

As a general rule, oil can go over oil, but it absolutely won't go over poly or varnish. The SB blend, with alkanet added, as you have seen, will yield a darker hue with every coat. Once you like the tone of the color, that's when to switch to LinSpeed, as it will add to the rubbed oil finish...

Almost looks more like the wood moved after shaping rather than having been bent. Or was carved. The bend is in a very unusual location. Even in a crossover like @Red Leg posted, the secondary bend is still very close to the wrist. That bend is also the wrong direction for a right handed...

^^^^This!^^^^ Varnish is not any better than poly for a gun stock. It will also yellow over (a short) time unless you use spar varnish with UV inhibitors. Varnish is really best used on indoor furniture, or the teak on a boat. Bob's suggestion of LinSpeed is a good one if you're looking for a...

Member since 2010 with 21 posts? I'd agree with @wyosteve on this being a questionable seller.

How far did you walk that day?!? :ROFLMAO: Murray makes great leatherwork, but I'd be in the same boat; this one is too big. GLWS

The author understands the reality that nothing is free. Just a question of who foots the bill. The last paragraph needs to be read by every politician (not just in Zambia) advocating higher tax rates; they stifle growth as a disincentive for invention and entrepreneurial pursuit. Lower tax...

My Chapuis has a set of 7x65R barrels that have proven very difficult to find a regulating load for. Seriously thinking about sending it to JJ to have them reregulated before I drive myself nuts. Either barrel will shoot close to an inch at 100yds, unfortunately, those two groups will be well...

If you're legit, start your own classified listing with all these cases for hard to find cartridges you seem to have in hand. Pics and prices would be advised. As you mentioned in another thread, you are spamming with these random posts.

Well done! Looks great and ready for decades more use in the field. Be sure to tell your friend he should use the Renaissance Wax annually, prior to the beginning of each season; need to freshen the weather protection before chasing the ducks again!

Nicely Done! Beautiful way to display your rifles.

Mine from Buffalo Arms should be at the house on Monday!

One of the great aspects of AH is the fact it is an international group willing to speak their mind. In this thread in particular, that disparate view of world affairs has been very educational for me. Perspective is everything in interpreting and gauging global issues. Hearing these varied...

Hope he posts a pic of how that 2600fps load regulates!

Curious what your load is to throw a 500gr TSX at 2650fps? Mind sharing the load data? @Wishfulthinker580 would also be interested in this I think....

Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris!

Well, this one's only 8 years old, and the OP hasn't been seen since shortly after posting this...

Congratulations! A bucket list hunt for me, to be sure. Thanks for taking us along with a well written story.

Gorgeous piece of walnut! If it shoots half as good as it looks, it's a tack driver.

They will back order. Their shipment has cleared customs and is enroute to the store as of 4/29. Don't know how many above their preorder they are getting, so no idea how long they might be "in stock" after the truck arrives.

Or order through Buffalo Arms for the same amount.

Your 1940s 30-30 is worth $800-$1100 if it all checks out as original and not refinished. Can't really tell from pics, but the patina, screw heads, wood, all look correct for the era, and there don't appear to be any rolled edges that are common with a refinish. The Williams peep looks to be...

This month? 9.3x74R. As I just received inserts to play with, next month it might be the 30-30 in a poor man's double. Last fall it was the 458 Lott. Last spring, the 9.3x62 If I can find the DR I want, it's likely to be the 450 #2 for awhile. Over the course of the last 60+ years, the answer...

Already have a Chapuis UGEX in 9.3x74R and love it. If I could add a proper weight, plain Jane Chapuis in 450NE, (or, even better, in 450 #2) under $10k, I'd order it tomorrow.

Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris!

The aroma of pipe tobacco takes me to my Grandparents ranch growing up. Grandpa smoked Velvet brand. Still love that smell...

Now... 40 years from now....
