OK Boys, let’s play a little trivia!

correct. I believe this was his last movie

The Shootist was John Wayne's last movie.

The movie Cowboys was supposed to have been his last movie, however public outcry over the way his character was killed, and after all he is John Wayne an American icon, Hollywood went to work on a movie that would appease the American public, for a more appropriate ending of an elite American {movie} icon.

I find the ending shootout in The Shootist a bit ironic as John Wayne's character is killed, shot in the back by a cowardly barkeeper using a short barreled shotgun. When he and the other last of the gunslingers could have all easily gone done in the hales of bullets being fired.
 
I stumped the great TC! Yes lol

It’s from 1995 but the characters were talking about their youth. It’s a great movie if you haven’t seen it “Things to do in Denver when you’re dead”

+1 with TC. Never heard of this titled movie. I hope the movie is better than the title.

Great movie! Insanely good cast!
Andy Garcia, Christopher Walken, James Caan, Steve Buscemi, Christopher Lloyd, William Forsythe, Treat Williams, Don Cheadle, and many more so you know the acting is great!!!
 
“I was an equal opportunity merchant of death. I supplied everyone but the Salvation Army. I sold Israeli-model Uzis to Muslims. I sold Communist-made bullets to Fascists... I even shipped cargo to Afghanistan when they were fighting my fellow Soviets. I never sold to Osama bin Laden. Not on any moral grounds: back then, he was always bouncing checks”

Wow, I know what I’m queuing up this weekend.
 
Here’s a great one for you all!

“Out of order, I show you out of order. You don't know what out of order is, Mr. Trask. I'd show you, but I'm too old, I'm too tired, I'm too f**ckin' blind. If I were the man I was five years ago, I'd take a FLAMETHROWER to this place!”
 
This ain't pool. This is for bangers. Straight pool is pool. This is like hand-ball, or cribbage, or something. Straight pool, you gotta be a real surgeon to get 'em, you know? It's all finesse. Now, every thing is nine-ball, 'cause it's fast, good for T.V., good for a lot of break shots... Oh, well. What the hell. Checkers sells more than chess.

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!
