I truly do Andrew.

The last year has been my time to fix old regrets. (reply)

I started with finding the woman I should have stayed with over 20 years ago and winning her back. Now it is time to rebuild the lost loves of guns and motorcycles. This time I keep all of them until i'm gone.

THIS NEXT time, when you sell it, let one of us in on the (reply)

deal.

That's just mean! (reply)

Like this one? (Still gloating) (reply)

Just got the skinny grips today from an Ebay auction.

I've been looking for one of those for a long time, but either I just missed them, the price was too high, or the condition of that particular specimen was too far gone.

Now, I'd be happy to find a really nice blue one, but it's pretty much the same story with those.

I have a feeling, though, I'm better off without one.

I couldn't take .45 ACP recoil in the Bowen custom S&W '1917/50' with prewar Magnas that I traded to Glen, so I kind of doubt I could handle a Bulldog, even if it had Goodyear grips.

In terms of recoil, I top out somewhere around .38 Special nowadays.

Yep my old Blued Shrouded Bulldog Pug did that... (reply)

Rob Leahy — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 18:50:26 +0000

too. The tapered stainless barreled all SS framed Bulldogs were the best they ever made.

I'd also prefer it unported (reply)

FOG — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 18:37:51 +0000

But I believe I'd make an exception.

That part is easy Rob... (reply)

Find one of the Bulldogs with the aluminum barrel shroud and simply shoot it. Soon, you will have a barrel sans sights...and shroud.

This I know to be true.

Get in line Bubba, I claimed dibs first. (reply)

Rob Leahy — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 17:37:36 +0000

I think I need to make one sans the holes.

That's cool. (reply)

FOG — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 13:52:48 +0000

VERY cool.

Can I claim 'first dibs' if you decide to sell, or am I just:
1) Barking up the wrong tree
2) ****ing in the wind
3) A day late and a dollar short
4) All of the above

I just picked up one of those Backpackers... (reply)

Neat lil' gun!!

It IS 'close'... (reply)

Ammo Craft is a LGS about 20 miles from here. It's a small strip-mall shop and their inventory is, ahh, well, I have more 'inventory' in my sock drawer usually. They do have a decent selection of reloading components and supplies. The owner is a good guy (rabid turkey hunter---how can he not be?) Reminds me, I need to stop by there one of these lazy Saturdays...

Well, that was 'close'

Somebody once said 'you should never go grocery shopping when you're hungry', which is probably good advice, except for one thing: GunBroker is on 24/7, and it's the cravings that never go away, not the store.

While I was hardly thinking of it as a consolation prize, I'm glad I spotted the 617 before I saw this.

Otherwise, I might be in real trouble.

'This'

The 617

The 617 should be here later today...
