Yep..Those conversions were pretty neat...

The 1860 Army is Number 1...

Navy Colts....the second sexiest revolver ever...

Just relax and be patient...quality taxidermy takes time.

Yeah...I need one of those...always had a thing for those N Frame .45s

Enzo...I wish I had not missed this for so long
..I want you to know the me and mine are keeping you and yours in our prayers...Much love from our place Brother

Thanks to all...

We laid him to rest yesterday...his kids, grandkids, great grands, nephews, nieces and cousins gathered for him one last time, some words were said, a rifle volley was fired, Taps was played and that was that...it was well done

Thanks to all for the kind words...we will lay hin to rest at Fort Custer National Cemetery on Tuesday the 23rd at 1100 hours...

He was a Crew Chief on a Huey back in the day.

Just heard from my niece that my brother passed this evening...Jon L. Sullivan was not only the last of my brothers but he was one of my heros as well...My world is suddenly smaller tonight. Not sure how I feel about being the last of the Sullivan Brothers

Lovely piece of work...

Done..

Interesting...sounds like quite the adventure...

Yep...sunk my F150 to the frame on a pasture trail that, as it turned out, had a spot that didn't have a bottom...took my cousin's truck, which got stuck, his cousins big John Deere, and also his cousins bigger John Deere , that, pulling in tandem got everybody out

Welcome!

Since nobody has mentioned it yet...what was the deal with the three, I think they were all females, that were hobnobbing up against the wall n the hallway that took off like a bunch of deer when the shooting started?

Welcome back...good to hear from you

Getting old is a terminal thing...Journey in a good way Al and rest in peace when you get home.....

Got cold up here...so I made a batch of potato and bacon soup with some crusty bread and good Irish butter...

Yep

Thanks for the input!

I'm in the process of getting a Yankee Hill Suppressor for my 5.56 ARs...One of the firearms I want to use it on is my 8.5" ARs...Now I discovered that the shortest barrel they recommend is a 10"...What is likely to happen if I use it on the 8.5 barrel?

The .45-70 1895 has a straight stock and the base of the tang sight rested right in the web of my hand...it was a great thought but in practice....it sucked...ended up putting a Buckhorn on it....
