"Life is hard, it's even harder if your stupid" - John Wayne Attributing that to John Wayne is like attributing words of Moses to Charlton Heston. Its also a misquote, but close to a statement made by SGT Stryker, a fictitious character played by Wayne in the movie Sands of Iwo Jima. The ...

Well, I always thought the ears were just there to protect the sighting 'v'. Which makes me wonder about the purpose of the semi-buckhorn ears ? I wonder if Mr Renner sells his "Adjustable Peephorn" separately? http://rjrenner.blogspot.com/ http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_F-UCRo1j_cY/TIWrQT9hyvI...

Wow, NIB rifle. Don't have it yet. Haven't shot it yet. Don't know what it might or might not need. Don't even know if it needs fixed or not and you're already getting ready to tear into it. The best way is to shoot it first. Put a couple hundred rounds through it, then you'll know better what it d...

Not entirely impossible, depending upon grandaddy's age/date of passing.

IIRC, they started chambering the Win 94 in 44-40 in the 70s.

Why wouldn't you go for one of your home grown SMLE sights for the Lithgow such as a Central or Rawson? There is also the Parker Hale 5A.

In 1900 some .30 (7.65mm) Luger pistols were submitted to the U.S. military for trial. Initial trials resulted in an order of 1,000 pistols being placed and these continued to be tested until 1908. Around the same time a number of similar pistol were made for commercial sales in the U.S.

I am guessing that the use of 'Dag Gum' (dad gummit ?) is because you consider the real words disrespectful to God. Surely the euphamism is equally disrespectful?
