Dennie, I think you are right. I want to say that I read that in one of those Old West shooting magazines (cant remember the name of it). The single action that he wore in Big Jake was his personal one I believe. It had a off yellow/orange colored grips.

I was wondering if it was someone with a sense of humor that did it back then since one of John Wayne's other characters was Hondo Lane.

I've watched the movie Rio Lobo numerous times. As I was sitting here watching it this evening in the scene where John Wayne is talking to the Sheriff and the girl comes in trying to get help about a friend that was murdered, if you look at one of the three wanted posters on the wall just inside the...

Looks Good.

60 years ago today the movie "The Quiet Man" was released in movie theatres.

I mentioned in an earlier post about my trip to the Perryville Battlefield in Perryville, Kentucky. Thought I would go ahead and post some pictures for ya'll. http://i1082.photobucket.com/albums/j376/RustyJr/shooting068.jpg This is the memorial to the Confederate dead. http://i1082.photobucket.com/a...

John Wayne in "Big Jake" carried both

But I reckon that in this case the shotgun would be the one to go with.

Hagler,
Thanks for setting it straight. I should have looked it up. My aunt has the entire series on DVD. I think I've watched all of them at least once and many of them multiple times. It would be hard to pick a favorite.

I think I may have found a little more. From talking to my mom he had at least one brother named William D. Conley and I found him listed as being in Company K of the 39th North Carolina with the rank of 1st Sgt. Company K is the same company that Jesse was listed as being in. So I think I'm on the ...

RustyJr

Griff, I know what you mean. His name was Jesse Conley. There was a James Connelly listed but his was an Arkansas unit.

Mohavesam, I remember the episode of which you speak. Don't remember what it was called but a man that Andy had put away for something was paying him a visit after being released and Barney and a few others were worried about it. The fella ended up bringing him a nicely engraved shotgun if I'm not m...

Glad to see your doing ok. I was just thinking about you the other day wondering and hoping that everything was well.

Well, we just left the Perryville Battlefield in Perryville, Kentucky. We came up here looking for information on a great great uncle of mine. According to My family tree he died in 1862. From research I've done on the national park's website "Soldiers and Sailors" I believe he was a membe...

I have a 4" stainless Security Six and Lord willing I'll never part with it. I bought it used and I'm guessing someone worked on it because It is almost as smooth as my Dad's Smith&Wesson model 28. It's a wonder to me why they ever quit making the Security Six. I like them much better than ...

RustyJr

My main carry gun is a Glock23 usually backed up by an NAA in 22mag. Looking at that Sig 238 it looks like a nice little pistol but after reading some of these responses I might be looking at a 38spl snubbie again.

RustyJr

RustyJr

How many here shoot the 380acp? I swore I would never have a carry gun that was less than 9mm or 38spl unless it was a 22mag. However, I have been thinking about a Walther PPK. It just seems like a classy pistol.

RustyJr

RustyJr

Sorry for your loss. What breed was he? He looks like a pointer but I'm not sure.

RustyJr

RustyJr

You might want to take a look at the Ruger Compact Magnum. I cant post a link to it right now but it's a nice looking rifle. Blued steel and wood with a 20" barrel. Available in 308. Doesn't have the removable box though if that's what your wanting.

RustyJr

RustyJr

Yes sir they sure did. If I'm not mistaken the first few seasons the rack held what appeared to be 1903 Springfields which almost looked like old drill rifles. It seemed like every time Andy went to grab a gun he seemed to favor that old double barrel shotgun.

Like the others said, "Welcome"!! Pour a cup of coffee and relax.

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone for the prayers. Two more days of scenarios and then we graduate on Friday.

RustyJr

RustyJr

Thank you sir. I appreciate it.

RustyJr

RustyJr

Thank you all for the prayers. I feel pretty good about it but wont know if I passed for probably seven to 14 days. I will let you know once I find out.

RustyJr

RustyJr

Please keep me in your prayers if you would. I take my state law enforcement exam this Wednesday.

Thanks,

I personally prefer a 1:9 twist because in my experience it seems that the 1:9 handles the 52grain to 69grain loads better and since in my area the two most common grains that are available at a cheap price are 55 and 62 grain it works well for me.

RustyJr

RustyJr

What is the strength of these? Obviously a standard 44 Mag isn't an issue. I wouldn't want to try to "hot rod" it but is it closer to a Smith Mdl 29 in strength or a Blackhawk?

RustyJr

RustyJr

Its been said, "Never pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight he will just kill you." I'd say this would be a good example of that. I'd say that he acted appropriately and considering that many law enforcement shootings these days involve many shots fired with some times no...

RustyJr

Its hard to choose between the middle and bottom one but I think I like the middle one best. While the stocks on both are beautiful I think I like the lighter color best.

I was wondering if anyone else out there with a Remington 870 Express has any issues with rust on the receiver and barrel. I have a 3.5" 12 gauge that I have had for about 4 years. When I first got it I put it behind the seat of the truck in a case and left the case unzipped so that it could br...

RustyJr

That is a cool pic. I agree with you that a Trapdoor would be nice to see. Although I think I would add a Krag-Jorgensen as well.

RustyJr

RustyJr

Ill stick with a 870. I have a 3.5" with a 26" vented barrel. Currently have one with a 18" barrel and extended magazine on order. Its what I have used most of my life and its what I qualified with in the academy so I figure I stick with what I'm familiar with.

Has anyone heard anything from Doc Hudson lately? Haven't seen him post on here in a long time and was wondering how he was doing. Hope everything is ok.

Our course of fire for handgun(daytime) was from 3-25 yards. Total of 48 rounds per score. We fired six rounds standing from 25 yards from behind a barricade in 30 seconds on two different targets. Three rounds per target. Then we moved up to the 15 yard line and had to shoot 12 rounds in 30 seconds...

I've wanted a single action in 40S&W for a while but can think of no other way to get one than to have one made. My thought was to get a SAA in 38-40 from Cimmaron and then buy an extra cylinder in 357 Magnum and have the cylinder rechambered to 40S&W. Does anyone know if this would work or ...

RustyJr

Does anyone know where I might find a standard length Upper Tang Screw for a Rossi 92? I have looked at Brownells and Buffalo Arms and cannot find one. The only ones that I have seen are the ones for the tang sites that are a little longer than standard.

Thanks,

Think I'd probably go with my Ruger Model 77 Hawkeye in 270 Winchester. Probably go with a hand loaded 130 grain Nosler Partition. Some might consider a 130 grain bullet a little light but the 270 was designed to shoot a 130 grainer and Jack O' Connor killed alot of game with 130 grain bullets and t...

I like trout and I like mushrooms. However, a man who taught me most of what I know concerning wilderness survival got veeerrryy sick from eating a false morel one time. As a result . . . aside from not being experienced at it . . . I stay away from gathering wild mushrooms.

RustyJr

RustyJr

I assure you that the Glock you purchased will not let you down. I would definitely say that it was operator error (negligence) that caused the issue. As someone else said, he should be thankful that the Glock was solid enough that the only damage done was to the pistol and not the shooter. RustyJr

I will keep you in my prayers sir.

When shining a flashlight into the action on the non-blind holes it appears as if at least one of the holes is a little "jagged" at the bottom. Its hard to explain but at the very bottom of on of the holes it looks like there is a small jagged "shelf", like it wasn't cut clean on...

Pitchy, you never cease to amaze me. Your skill and ability to build things with your hands is incredible. Thanks for posting these stories and inventions as you do. I truly do enjoy them.

I may be wrong but I think the one with the suppressor has a "butter bolt".
