Wow! The notion is a good one. I have thought for the longest time that I should get a little focus on what I am doing. Too many revolvers, various calibers, too many differnt semi autos, various calibers. Maybe if took some of the ideas from the original post I could actually get better...

Thanks 41 Mag I always try to do my part in helping. Been shooting for a few years, not much problem with bears here is NW Ohio but I having been having a battle with a groundhog for 3 years. Think I'm going to call in air next. Semper Ho & Gung Fi

After reading through all of this I am staying away from attacking bears. I might attack beers! I will continue supporting my right keep and arm bears, but not with beers.

Mostly carry Taurus Poly Protector 38 +p. Just bought SCCY CPX2 9mm gonna give it a try, works well at the range.

CPX2 isn't for everyone. I have one and like it. I also like my J frames 38s for ccw. CPX2 has a lot of good features, but if you don't shoot DA a lot it could off putting.

I voted for the Dan Wesson pistol pac because I've owned one and they are great. I also have two Taurus 357s a 4" stainless old one and a 6" blue new one. They are great guns.

Hi Thanks for insight. You are correct about "poor form", I do get that. I never want to be seen as someone who might take advantage of another's lack of knowledge. All of the points you make are right on, and I will consider your advice. At the very least I'll give it a good cleaning for...

Hi A friend tried to give me an old Remington pump 22lr that his Father left to him. This gun was from 1909 - 1911, serial # RW 129xxx. It is in 80% condition, needs cleaning and has never been "messed with". It has an octagon barrel, and his Father used in Camp Perry matches in 1940 or so...

Hi Probably not at all. Tarus was an easy target to bash, but too many owners have had them for a long time and have had very good experiences with them. Have had a PT 92 for 5 years and not probs at all. Great heavy gun. Fun to shoot, accurate, reliable.

Hi Look for a good sale on an XDM 3.8. Can't be beat. Got mine nib for 535.00

Wow Great pics and great story. Thank you. Wish more people would post things like this.

Hi I'd go along with the suggestions about a 357 4" revolver and shooting 38 wadcutter target loads. My wife has one of these and a 3" 38 special, (both stainless) she really enjoys shooting both, and does very well. (Mostly better than me). Of course later on your going to need a 1911, a...

Yeah, I tried just lighting money in the back yard, but the fire didn't last as long as a good bocote, paduca, rosewood, purple heart, teak, jatoba, wenge, etc. I found out that curly sassafras burns too quickly. I like to stay with the South American,and African hardwoods. Oak, Mahogany...

Hi thanks for the support. Not sure if I have the talent for actually doing woodwork for others? I have done a lot of woodworking over the past 40+ years, and have turned a lot of very fine wood into very fine expensive firewood!! It does, however, give me a reason to buy lot's of tools...

Hi I agree with your assessment. I am not giving up on it. I plan on using it to learn a lot about what actually makes the rifle run. Currently it is in pieces on my bench and I am (slowly) tinkering with it. I believe that the worst that can happen is that I do end up with a very good...

Hi Thanks for replies. Made sense as it isn't/wasn't a very expensive gun to begin with. I have taken it to a number of smiths and all say the same thing. Buy a new one, it will cost more to fix than a NIB same model. Again, thanks for the replies.

I have a Marlin model 60 stock that is really great looking. It has been refinished (by me) and looks awesome. Unfortunately the rest of the rifle does not function. This gun was made in 1971 and someone threw it into a barn and left it there for many many years. I coulld buy a new one and...

Hi Come up to the Toledo area. I have a groundhog problem. Damn thing has taken up residence in my barn and caused all kinds of damage. Unfortunately I live in a township with a housing development behind my property. Neighbors tend to get a bit upset when I try sniping the thing. It's...

What about a 44 mag, and a 2" snub, and a small 380 pocket auto. this would give a lot of people some idea of what they are actually talking about?? I agree on the SA 45 long colt, and a 1911. :banghead:
