Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Jorge's Retirement Gift

A Shiloh Sharps 45-110 with custom bullet mold. Shipping it out in approx 30 minutes

Of course, I couldn't let the Sailors mistake the origins of the Friendship


I put my Division Insignia on the case

The thing that impresses me most is that little blue badge inside the case (and what it represents).

You sir, are a gentleman of the first order. I would like to thank you both for your service to this country. My hats off to you.

Thanks Ken. Keep in mind that crazy bastards like Jorge helped bring a lot of us home in one piece. A grunt has a looong memory of those who helped and cared. Jim Martin

Dang that's a pretty gun!!!!!!

Thinkin something with a few war wounds would be fitting for a jarhead........................................

Cdr Jorge---when I see you at GRPC will you let me shoot that thing a couple of times ??? MCPO

Thank you both for your service. Wow makes me wish I were retireing! Bear

Looks good ET, bet you had that screamin' eagle engraved somewhere on that rifle.

From and to people who deserve it.

A salute to both of you!

sweet! pretty cool of ya.

Impressive. My hat's off to you both.

That ain't no Screamin Eagle, that's a Gobbling Turkey.....

With that said ET my hats off to you that's a fine retirement gift to a rival service member. I only wish I were the recipient of that beautiful hunk of Iron & Wood it is a work of art. I'm Jealous.

WOW!

The Fire has some incredibly good people on it. It's a damn good place . I'm proud, and grateful, to be here.

Thanks guys and gals. And special thanks to Jorge and ET.

psssstttt...we called 'em Pukin' Buzzards...



Many thanks to ET and Jorge for their service. Macho and crotcho...guts and balls. A fine gesture from an outstanding gentleman to a deserving hero. I raise a glass of Jameson to y'all as we speak. It's 5 o'clock somewheres...

Yeah, I know... I never figure out why someone wanted to jump out of perfectly good airplane....

WOW.....He's just Navy...

Pukin' Buzzards Ethan??? Sounds like a case of envy to me I hoisted one back at ya with Maker's Mark. The rifle is a #3 Sporter, 28" barrel. The bullet mold is custom made for that particular rifle (paper patch mold). Weight is about 10 lbs. It was custom ordered as a pure hunting rifle. It balances and hangs SWEET! Now that Swabbie will be properly armed when he goes to shoot big tasty critters anywhere he wants to go.

Y'all put a lump in my throat. What fine gentlemen!

Ladies and gentlemen what can I say in response to ET's generosity? I really don't deserve this. He's a combat wounded veteran and a true hero and he's honoring me??? All I can say is that I will do it justice and promise to take lots of pictures at my retirement ceremony and he has my eternal respect 7 gratitude, but he already knew that. I am truly blessed to have friends and a brother in arms like Jim. jorge
