    Rimfires I've loved or hated

    No sir. The rifles are NOT all lousy shooters, but we do have some lousy shooters who blame 22 auto loaders for being lousy shooters. The rifle can only shoot as good as the man who aligns the sights and controls the trigger, but that goes for all rifles whether they be a 22, 308, bolt action...

    Rimfires I've loved or hated

    This is a GREAT Thread that you started Picher, and some mighty fine rifles are pictured in it. It brings back a lot of good memories for me and I thank every one of you boys for joining in on it. You made my day!! 1942 Bull started shooting a year before me although we were born the same...

    New .22 rifle daydreams

    WOW Maxx. That is some darn good shooting. The only Tikka I have is a Ithaca/Tikka "Turkey gun" ( They don't make it anymore) with a 12 gauge on top and a .222 Remington on the bottom. The .222 barrel shoots as good as any .222 I have ever shot and is amazing on coyotes out to about 125 yards...

    New .22 rifle daydreams

    Quote Armored Farmer: "Eeeeeeasy there. I'm no stranger to regional and national competition. Been there, done that. Brought home the engraved pewter. All-State team...blah blah....nobody cares. My .22 rifle slot is pretty bare. I have my grandpas 550-1, and my worn out BL22. The fact is, I...

    New .22 rifle daydreams

    Offhand hit the nail on the head. The TC 22 Classic was one of the very best, and most accurate 22 autos made. Unfortunately, because it was all high polish, blued steel and nicely finished American walnut with no aluminum or plastic in it, even the magazine is made from metal, it was...

    Do you CC everywhere?

    No sir. Nothing I said in my "rant" was intended or directed to you personally. I appologize if you took it that way. I don't do personal things on line. I do personal things eye ball to eye ball and toe to toe. I was using the idea or concept in your post that states certain places could...

    Do you CC everywhere?

    For three years I was CEO of a large hospital physician's group (186 docs in 53 different locations) owned by the hospital with the doctors under contract. It was STRICKLY ILLEGAL for anyone to have a firearm on any hospital property including locked in your vehicle in the hospital parking lot...

    Are you a collector or a shooter?

    Yep. I have three Browning Hi Powers and four 1911's and every one of them have blueing wear, dings, and scratches from holsters and other sources because I shoot and run drills and competetions with them regularly. They are NOT part of a "collection." If I was not going to shoot them, why...

    Are you a collector or a shooter?

    Like I said, I get it. I have gathered up a bunch of guns over my lifetime too and when I ran out of room and could not put a third gun safe in the house, I sold off a bunch of my guns. They were NOT A COLLECTION. There was nothing unique, rare, or unusual about any them. There were not...

    Where are the combo guns?

    Quote DM: "As for regulation, Valmets are easily regulated for any ammo by the owner... Bottom line is, with this "kiddi craz" mentality we have today to blast out as many rounds as possible, no they aren't popular... But, those of us that grew up and learned how to conserve ammo, making each...

    Are you a collector or a shooter?

    Quote Coal Train 49: I think a collector has a plan. They seek out certain types, models, make, etc. If you have more than one S&W model 19 you might be a collector. If you have 3 revolvers but none are the same make or model you probably aren't a collector. You probably just like revolvers...
