Today's very fortunate acquistions:
The first was one of the Lipsey's adjustable sight blued Bearcats. Thrilled about that (at wholesale) I then scored a .17 HMR Contender barrel. NOS from a closed shop, I never had a HMR barrel although I'd thought of getting one several times. However, that Bearcat. Really neat. We also ordered/wish listed the stainless version. They sent another Shopkeeper.

I didn't know an Adjusto-Cat existed!
Went and looked....very cool!
I had the impression that the Shopkeepers were drying up. But they are still shipping? Hmmm, have to keep my eyes open.
I was surprised to see the Shopkeeper in the
shipment. Already booked and in the display case. It shouldn't last long.
We also got a NICE war finish Webley MK IV .380/200.

What is the barrel length of the Bearcat? I was hoping for a three incher.

Yes, and a very usable gun. Comparable to a 4" S&W 34

We need to 'normalize' Miss Melodie's schedule.
Every time she gets a break, everybody else does too....makes traveling crowded.
Will we see you in Clarksville?

Mike,
Whats the job situation? Hope it is good.

Thank you for asking Art.
It's difficult to say where this particular ride will end. I have been given a pretty generous severance so the "need" isn't really there. In fact, I could ride it out and then be eligible for unemployment which, after it runs out, would leave me durn close to retirement status.
I have been running the traces with the "transition service" hired by the company. I'll get a nice resume and some interviewing skills out of the deal. Who knows? I may need them. A good friend is also starting up his own company and something may come of that.
Melodie and I are in a good place with our heads, our hearts and our wallets. We also have the Lord in our corner. I have no real anxieties for what is to come. Still and all, I appreciate you thinking of us.
Yes we will see you in Clarksville
I am glad to hear you folks are doing well. 59 degrees this morning locally...

My son's is sweet. He ended up polishing the chambers for
Easier ejection. Without a full length ejector rod it was hard to get the shell cases out.
