Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Savage Collectors Let's give Saddlering something to look at in the Hospital

HA! It has all the right ingredients...but NY has always required front tags ...on their autos

Gary, that woman should be smiling shes setting right on that bumperette !!!!!

Don...or any of you other old school motor heads...I initially thought a Buick grille, but I don't think it is big enough after further review...what is it?

And the old piss cutter on the right pulling the the Chesterfield is about to have his skin eggs impaled!

47 Buick,????????grills were wider in 49

Kind of looks like a Packard clipper to me ,cant see the hood ornament very well ,could be a flying goose. looks like he was scratching his nutz with the deer antler!!!

Here is an old Colt ad that my great Uncle had up in his harness shop. Haven't looked into it too much but a couple folks figured it was meant for Spain or Brazil if memory serves, from the `20's.


First time out with my 1901 built 1895 and the old family heirloom skinning knife.


A friend, Harold who guided up in the Kakwa. They had just got back to camp, his hunter having a Caribou tag. Harold spotted a herd come out on the mountain in the background and to make a long story short here he is back a camp, a very tired but succesful guide. Think we figured the rifle to be a Remington 30 in 30 gov't 1906.


My 60" bull from the same area that Harold guided in, we were actually camped where his picture was taken.
1939 Hva 9,3mm



Here's the brother in law with the 721 in 30 Super we got him for his birthday. His Grampa hunted the dark continent with one so he was quite excited. This is the hero pose.

We are looking for a camp-cook and some housekeepers. Wondering if any of them would like some employment?????

exclent thred and photos !!!!!get well soon

great pics Noel i go by the Kakwa quite often ,thats a big moose

norm

Just home from my Southwest vacation. Speaking of Ross, came home to find that earlier today I won a very rare Lyman No.50 receiver sight (that fits a Ross rifle). I was in the air when the auction ended so had to make a hail Mary bid - glad I prevailed. This sights are so rare that Stroebel didn't even have a picture of one in his book. I have several on different rifles but no spares. Great, great, great thread!

Well a Ross fan hey! My friend just up the road used to hunt with his older brother in law's Ross that he had brought back from the Great War. I have actually held this rifle, but not in close to twenty years. Our young friend here is now 92 years young. He served in Artillery in the 2nd war and upon getting home used to play guitar with my Grandfather at the community hall gatherings. Nicer guy you'll never find!



Here is his Dad with his No.8 in 25 Rem


Oh hey look at this, here he is in the 30's with a borrowed Savage in 303. He was at a Logging camp but prices were so poor due to the economy it was shut down. They got hungry and headed up by the Spray Lakes and got a goat and a ram if I recall. My Gramma's brother was on that job too.


Back at camp, note the burnt timber, this was the birth they were salvaging lumber from.

My Gramma's Beau, John Snarud was on the crew as well.

This is an amazing thread!!!!!!
A Ross fan - yes. Come to the Savage Fest this summer and I will show you a few

Great photos Supersporter, I would be proud to sport your pops facial hair, what a great look!

Thanks Grogel,
To be technical that is me with the moose, the kid with the Ross, it's his Dad with the goat tee. His son told me it is actually a spoof shot as the facial hair is fake, just for the picture. Guess he had quite a sense of humor.

So did Saddlering's nurse take his computer away with all those redneck skin shots?
And how come no one is posting pics here anymore???

John (Saddlering) is home from the hospital, so I guess we've slowed down on keeping him entertained.

Seeing RAS's fish photo reminded me of this one. I don't know much about fishing, but I believe this is a state record Rainbow Trout. The guy at the DNR office gave me a hard time when I tried to register it.

Rod

Get that one by, "noodling"?

Not a Rainbow, Rod, thats one of them Rare Golden trout!
