Re: New ATF rule comment period is ending

Before I retired I was responsible for my company's compliance with the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Titles 18, 29, 40 and 49. Just those 4 Titles of Federal Regulations comprised hundreds of thousands of pages of rules and r...

Re: Winchester Model 12
Some years back I bought a Winchester 1200 12 gauge that has been modified for card, or block shooting. It came with an extra slug barrel that somebody had stripped of all coatings. It was bare metal and already starting to rust. I went to a local gun shop looking for a cheap, easy home bluing kit o...

Hey Gene, it has been awhile. Hope everything is OK in your part of the world.
Inflation is hard on everybody, but it hits those on a fixed income especially hard.
Take care and don't be a stranger.

Re: Why is fruitcake so maligned?
Am I the only fruitcake lover here? No, you are not the only one. My Mother made a fruitcake when we were kids that we loved. She wrapped it in a rum soaked towel.

Re: My latest experience
Pay no attention. Just experimenting with attaching pictures directly from my PC. I've never done it before. Wanted to see if I could do it.
