Best Bond is dead. Sir Sean Connery!

I was 19 when The Untouchables came out. Once it was released to video I must have watched it at least a dozen times, largely for Connory’s character. Great actor. RIP
 
He was......

Good. Very Good!
 
My fav Bond movie was the 2nd one, From Russia with Love, a true spy classic without too much gadgetry. Robert Shaw as the villain Red Grant was quite scary. The fight inside the train is a classic.
I just watched him the other day in The Wind and the Lion which is excellent as is the Molly McGuires, The Man Who Would be King and others.
He was very funny in the Indy movie as well, The Last Crusade.
 
Don’t forget “League of Extraordinary Gentlemen”. Kind of a weird movie, but hey, it’s Connery as Quatermain...African PH. Who better?

He will be missed.
 
Until I rewatched “The Longest Day” about a week ago, I didn’t know he was in that.
He was very good and will be missed.
 
Never saw him in a role that he did not nail! Agreed. Best Bond ever!
 
A great actor. He MADE the Bond character. My favorite role he was in was in The Hunt for Red October.
90 yrs is a great run. RIP Sir Connery.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
