    Mine would be a Smith and Wesson model 10 manufactured best I can tell him 69. Followed by a Polish P 64 manufactured and 75. And a Bulgarian Makarov a manufactured and 83. All or carried and shot on a regular basis

    1858 Remington-Rider Belt Revolver in .32 Rimfire plus a percussion .36 C&B with a lock made by Joseph Golcher. Unknown when the rifle was made, lock somewhere between 1830-1850.

    Liberalism is a cult divorced from reality.

    I have a beat up rolling block in .43 cal. I do not know the year of manufacture. I have parts of a 93 mauser. I have a dutch 9.4 revolver. So nothing really old.

    I have a Winchester pump .22 gallery rile with oct barrel that is chambered for .22 shorts only.
    Mid 1890's.

    Happened to run across it at an estate auction. It has a few bubba'd repairs to the mag tube but was otherwise in very good condition. Probably paid too much for it but I enjoy owning it. It shoots and is reasonably accurate at shorter ranges. Love to see people's eye's get big when I put it into their hands. Its a piece of history.
    I truly believe we need to get back to basics.

    Get right with the Lord.
    Get back to the land.
    Get back to thinking like our forefathers thought.


    May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you
    and give you His peace. Let all of the earth – all of His creation – worship and praise His name! Make His
    praise glorious!

    That I shoot regularly… probably this 1917 vintage 1911. It belonged to my Grampa, my Father and now mine.
