Wait, you ax'd me to call you something w/o knowing what it meant? I gotta try that...logorrhea thing.

Let us walk into the abattoir of intellectual critique, hey?
The phrontistery is an unknown world to most, but don't let my habromania bother you.

You been eatin' alphabet soup??

Cause you just vomited up some vocabulary.

Go lay down, Ill call the Principal for you...

...Victoria Principal.


(I had to look those up)

Will, give me a time machine and sign my azz up.



She's turned into a classic non-collectable, but I remember the good ol' daze.

That's kind of the way I am. I hunt big game with a Savage. It's a tool and a very effective and accurate one. I don't care what it looks like as long as it gets the job done well. I'll be buying a new rifle this spring and it'll likely be a RAR. Inexpensive but very accurate and reliable.

That's OK. Really.

I go both ways.







Or is that 3 ways? Who knows?

Amazing stuff!

UHH-OH!

Shock and Ossum.

Don't be jealous.

I could sure use Corbetts 450/400.....

Dang!

Did Elmer have a side gig or did scribing guns pay 'that' well?

Me too. I was in line first. Put me in your will and I'll let you move to the head of the line. My great grandkids will have Julia advertise it as the Corbett's Awesome Ingwe when they sell it.

Life is too short to hunt/shoot with tools...

DAMN!!!!!, beautiful guns, Thanks for the link DD, a man could trash several retirement portfolios at that auction, as well as put himself back to work till he's 100.

I wonder how Elmer could afford all those expensive guns. Some were no doubt given to him by firearms companies, but not the expensive English doubles.

Also I wonder why his family waited thirty years after his death to sell them.

Very interesting questions there Indy, would be nice to know.

I am officially cracked up. -laffin'-

Well, put on yer' dick hat, and start snoopin' around, Sherlock.

Gunner, rumor I heard from back in the '80s-'90s was that skilled players in collectable arms outdid the S&P by several orders of magnitude. No need to be poor if you do your homework. To a minor degree I've found my own plays in the stock market embarrassing, particularly in comparison to the bank of wood and metal.

OTOH, I'd rather be armed and poor than rich and defenseless. Particularly when it comes to tigers. We have a bunch of them here in Florida ya know. For now they are caged, but hurricanes lurk and as Andrew showed us down Miami way, they can open the cages, and will.

We also have buffalo and other immigrants running amok in high fence operations.

I need that Sharps....

Yup, that's the one I could own!

10-4 on weaponry out performing the SM, I just last week held up a rifle to Wifey and said, guess what we will never loose money on? She grinned real big.

Also, if SHTF, weapons and ammo will become the most valued possessions on this planet along with salt and potable water, you can get what you need with them and hold on to what ya got.

And yes, You DO need that Sharps.
