In the market for another 1911. This one will have better sights than my current 1911 with GI sights.

45ACP would be my first choice. Just not sure if a pistol, revolver or PCC would cover all the bases. Since it wasn't on the list I'd go with 9mm.

Fall weather in N E Texas usually last about a week. I'll carry the same handgun (Ruger Max 9) I carry the rest of the year in a OWB holster.

Our local east Texas gun shows used to be mostly private sellers and mom and pop dealers. The last few I have attended are made up of retail gun shops from the Dallas/Ft Worth area. Prices are in line with their over the counter sales but very few bargains. I still go to a few shows just to see...

My dad bought my first rifle in 1968. A Model 94 30-30. About a year later I bought a Mossburg 185 bolt action shotgun from a neighbor for $25.00. I still have both and would never think about selling. Lots of guns came and went during the last 50+ years.

Bought a new Ruger 10/22 to replace the one I gave to a nephew. Also picked up a couple of handguns and a rifle not on the list. Now to find time to shoot them.

Rain or shine, a day at the range beats a day at work. Hang in there and good luck.

My local coffee shop is a hunters hangout a few weeks before season opens. Sometime you can find a few folks looking for someone to split the lease cost or fill in for guys who have dropped out at the last minute. Only problem will be listening to all the hunting stories from last year. Good luck.

Won a Henry golden boy 22LR in a raffle. It sat in the safe for several months and I never shot it. My brother asked if I was interested in selling it. He has it now (still unfired).

I have a lot of old school wadcutters purchased years ago. They are my favorite ammo for my 642 and Model 10. Low recoil and accurate target ammo.

Ruger Max 9 or SW 642. One or both are carried daily.

My granddad use to make my brother and I whistles out of old spent rifle casings. A few that I tried to make looked a little like that

My two favorites. Win 94-30/30 and Henry 44Mag. Got the 30-30 in 1968 for my 14th birthday. Got the Henry for my upcoming 68th birthday. Both are great shooting rifles.

I purchased 500 rounds of this Norma 9mm ammo minus the 22LR a couple of months ago. It runs fine in both my pistols, no issues. Will be ordering more. Thanks for the heads-up.

My first carry gun 20+ years ago was a SW 642 in a pocket holster. Still carry it today but as a backup to a Ruger Max9 OWB.
