    I am selling my old, spare bow this morning to complete the funding of my new scope. Just about to order a Vortex Viper PST 4-16 x 50 FFP.

    Cleaned AR, M&P and 12 ga... wishing I had time to do a little shooting!
    I have an old PSE bow; bought it about 25 years ago. Shot a lot of deer and a few coyotes while I was in Ky in the '80's.
    Planning to have new cables and string put on so I can blow the dust off of it!
    Good hunting/shooting to you!

    Went to GOLD MINE PAWN today and over paid for some reloading stuff and looked at all the water. Reminded me of the Mississippi River every spring when I was up north.

    Wrapped the 1860 Army BP revolvers in plastic wrap before stuffing them into the new slim jim holsters to mold the holsters to the pistols. Also handled and admired the Ruger Old Army I recently added to the BP revolver collection. Might need another ROA to make a second brace of BP revolvers! I think it is a fever!

    Prepared defense for riots by switching my 10 rd cc out for the 17rd + 4 extra mags. Topped off the saiga drum with 00buck. Numerous other things I care not to mention over the intranet. :spy:

    What all did you do to your trigger?

    Hi Jeep,
    Well I started with a new S&W AR and the trigger pull was LONG and felt like dragging a file through rocks! I basically shortened the travel and cleaned up the moving parts of the trigger that mate. That's the short version but if you are thinking about doing some trigger work PM me and I'll go into more detail. You can probably get the typical advice from members with more experience but I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome of mine. I'm not the type to just do what everyone else does as I feel there are usually ways to get better results than the "norm". For example, I discussed the polishing with a knifemaker and he gave me some advice on what to use and how to use it. I know there are alot of people that have opinions but I felt a knifemaker would know more about polishing metal than most. (Just an example of my approach to things!)

    Just got back from shooting my 45's - a 45 LC & a 45 ACP. The temperature cooled down and decided to hit the FOP range before it got dark. Something nostalgic about shooting those old war horse cartridges. I especially love the sound (more of a roar than a crack) of the 45 LC from my SAA revolver. Accuracy isn't too shabby either.
