Jaxenro is grand winner, but i repeat EVERYBODY includin the young man Thom that wants a good art school GETS SOMETHIN!!!!

Private message me yer addreses&telephones for shipping company.

[Third_Rail]

jaxenro, way to go! :)

Betcha he sends you something nice.


You did say you have too many irons, Thom!

[Manyirons]

Nope, only tha one :) OH! you mean GUNS!

It was loads of fun, i appreciate all tha collboration!

[Third_Rail]

I have to ask... what exactly are you sending us, anyway? My curiousity is overwhelming at this point. :D

[RyanM]

I hope it's not a lifetime supply of bullets. I'm still saving up for my first BP revolver. About halfway there so far.

Oh, Manyirons, did you ever ask the kraut if it would be practical to put a copper cap on the bullets, as one of the variant bullets? Pure lead would be a little too soft for application as a real weapon, since it would just splatter if it hit bone. Especially if it's a hollowpoint, even if it's designed not to expand much. But a sharp-edged, slightly dish-shaped copper cap on the top would give enough strength to punch through bone. Maybe a .32 or .38 caliber gas check for the .36s, and .44 gas checks for the .44s?

Y'know guys, I like to hear a contented customer! Just think how many other world problems could be sorted out if people talked AND listened to each other. Oops, thats me pontificating again - but well done Jaxenro, enjoy your prize.

Ryan, as these are swaged, wouldn't it be possible to buy a set of swaging dies and drop the cap in before swaging? I haven't done it myself, but it seems like some experimentation might b possible.

Personally, I've always been partial to Navies, if ManyIrons has too many in his collection. Seriously, though, I kind of collected a lot of other ideas from everyone else together so I wouldn't expect the "grand" prize to be much more than everyone else that contributed gets. The biggest kick will be seeing a variation of my label on the box.

[Third_Rail]

jaxenro, ditto on the label. Even though I didn't do much, even seeing a tiny bit of my work on a product label will make me smile. :)

[Manyirons]

FIRST thing goin out will be some money! In descending order. THEN when I can think up and buy GOODIES will send them too!

[sjohns]

Way to go jaxenro!

[arcticap]

Congratulations to jaxenro (and everyone else too), and best wishes for success to Manyirons and The Smith! :)

[Derek]

Jaxenro, you would have got my vote too, but don't get greedy, or Manyirons may send you a genuine grenade,[pin to follow], Pistols ain't his ONLY irons!

[Manyirons]

Derek!

THA MANN might send that grenade, me, i'm a chubby friendly teddy bear. We're movin too, so hang on for a few days guys, i'm being taken on as an apprentice!

Cant express adequately how much i appreciate all of you!

[Manyirons]

Hi Guys!

In case it wasnt understood, EVERYBODY who contributed gets a Money Order, and THEN when we've finished movin, i'll figure out what EXTRA item ta send everyone for appreciation of a collaborative job well done!

[Third_Rail]

You are the most charitable, generous person I've had the pleasure of talking to in my life.:)

I've got to get out of New England! :D

[Manyirons]

Nah!

Aint no christian, but i LIVE by golden rule! I treat EVERYBODY tha way i'd wanta be treated, its how i run my life.

Even THA MANN in his own harsh way is kindly and generous.

Thom

[arcticap]

Manyirons, After seeing the ram's head on the website, I'm confused about what name's been selected for the bullets? I PM'd you, but you didn't actually say. Which name has been selected?

[Third_Rail]

We haven't selected a name - I put the ram's head there because I made the website. :D


I like how it looks.

[sjohns]

what's the website address?

[Third_Rail]

I'll post it after the website is more complete - it is very much still a work in progress at this point.

[arcticap]

The website address has already been publically posted here:

The address that manyirons listed there is:

[Third_Rail]

I have to have a talk with Thom.... ;)

[MCgunner]

Jeez, an' I though EZ Load was a ringer. :D

Congrats Jaxenro. There's a career there in marketing i think.:D

[Duncaninfrance]

I have to have a talk with Thom....
I doubt it will do any good, just ask the MANN to point out the error of his ways - that should work!!
Duncan

[MCgunner]

Nah!

Aint no christian, but i LIVE by golden rule! I treat EVERYBODY tha way i'd wanta be treated, its how i run my life.


Thom

Words to live by. ;) I'm in 100 percent agreement. My wife is a church goer. She prays for my soul. That's good 'nuf. I believe what I believe, but the golden rule and common courtesy is just the way to live and get along with folks in this ol' world IMHO.
