      Another Republican calling it quits

      Rush used to sometimes call the Republicans the Washington Generals. Happy to continually lose to the Globetrotters while remaining on the gravy train.

      Best SHTF firearms solution for the elderly

      I'm 65 and would recommend a Single Six for inexperienced seniors. Even though it's a single action there is little recoil and with a little practice is comfortable to use. Also, if they can handle a little more recoil they can step up to 22 mag.

      Advice for New Shooters

      I like to start out new shooters with my Single Six 22lr. It's really good for slow deliberate shooting so one can get down the mechanics. If they get comfortable and want a little more pop I switch to the 22mag cylinder.

      Reloading vs buying new

      IMHO reloading doesn't save money because I end up shooting more. However, for me, there are some significant advantages: 1) I enjoy reloading; 2) I can tailor my loads to my specific gun and application (i.e. target, SD); 3) if I'm smart and have stocked up on adequate supplies I can reload...

      38spl/357mag range day

      i put Hogue grips on my SP101 a few years ago. For me it made a significant difference in control over the original grips. I generally shoot 38spl for practice and 38spl+P for self-defense. I occasionally shoot 357mag but I'm not very accurate with it.

      Barred owl?

      We had what looked like a barred owl in our yard about two weeks ago. I had never seen one before and it was quite impressive (wasn't able to get any good pictures). The owl was being harassed by a bunch of crows. I didn't realize that crows and owls are enemies.

      Ruger Blackhawk 357/9mm

      I bought one early last year with my stimulus money. It's a beautiful gun. I am very happy with the fit and finish, as well as, the accuracy of both the 357 and 9mm cylinders.
