60+ year old thread.

Sue will be by soon for some

 

First Sat in Nov. in zone 2 (Fla mid state)

 

Ditto that.

Don't laugh too hard at this - my wife is bugging me to build a garage.

Welcome! I like Yuengling, or Sam Adams, or darned near anything craft brewed except the ones they ruin with fruit flavor.

 

x2

Class 3 ... We were stationed in England before Wal-Mart came over there; 1994 thru 2001. In 1998 when my SIL got married, we came back for the wedding. I, conveniently, had to go TDY to Scott AFB (St Louis) around the same time. I flew into St Louis; my wife and the boys flew into Atlanta (cheapest airfare), got a rental car and drove up to pick me up and we continued onto Iowa. On the return they dropped me in St Louis and back to Atlanta.

The punchline: 4 states (x2 - coming and going) and IIRC the final count was 22 Wal-Marts. Even the boys (8 & 11 at the time) were shaking their heads towards the end.

 

Is it weird that I'm anxious for your quail season to open?

 

Laugh? I'll trade you long enough to get mine built.

On the fruity beers, ever been to Belgium? Unreal ... The list of flavors they DON'T make would be the shorter list.

 

Afternoon all:
Jim, that must only be the SHORT course!

 

Going to be lots of running the first week,, If the pups are born in mid Nov its going to be ruff but just did not want to do a summer litter. Wife has the Thurs.,Fri. & Mon. mom watch so have to be home with the pups on those days.

Ive been working on mine for 43+ years now so yes that must be the short course

 

sounds like a plan

x2 on Charlie

welcome!!

good idea... I could use an extension... hmmmm

 

What? Me post something firearms related? Never!

Well, OK.




Got hooked on shooting sporting clays and have been borrowing shotguns for 3 years. Lynn finally told me to just get what I wanted. I've been shooting O/Us - mostly Browning 625s and 725s - and decided to go with what I felt comfortable with. But, I was tempted greatly by a Beretta 400 Xcel semi...

I am rapidly approaching my "legal" entry age for the forum - will hit the magic 60 in April.

 

Nice shotgun 6!

Oh ... Yeah big surprise.

 

Your truck will be getting a workout. That's ok, you'll have to leave a few quail for the other folks.

43+ ... Woman must be aiming for sainthood; I suspect that's what mine is up to.

 

I get some things right ... every so often.

Hows it going Susan?

 

Very nice! I think you made the right choice with the OU. The semi's are a bit temperamental at times and they take much longer to cleanup. The OU's are dependable, don't jam, and fast to clean. A few squirts of Ballistol in each barrel, run a few patches, wipe off and put away.

 

Im down to one gun on the wish list now Weatherby 20 ga o/u

Tues & Wed . Ill be in the woods. I told her the other day if I killed her
& when I went in front of the judge. He would look up from his paperwork & say Sir you were with the same woman for 43 years??? Yes sir I was. HE WOULD SMILE & SAY CASE DISMISSED, You are free to go.

Its true

 

One of these day I'm going to break down and get a 20ga. The problem is that then I'd have to get another loader and stock 20ga wads....I guess that's not too much of a problem after all.
That Weatherby looks nice. I'll have to go check it out. I won a Weatherby 270 last year and like it so far.

 

Use this now ,Hand me down from my FIL. 20ga. & love it but its hard to keep clean & a few lbs more then the 20 ga weather. all the state land is walk in now so every lb. counts.

 

I always did like the 1100. I have two now.

and

But I'd still like to have a 20ga OU.

 

Ive got to shoot alot of shotguns over the last 25 years, A pal,s weatherby 20 o/u is top gun for me. We shoot trap 25 shots a round non stop for 20$. everyone has to lay his gun on the table. for anyone else to ust.. Guess what I pick up

 

So here I am very happy with my 1100 classic trap -- and now you guys got me thinking about O/Us and becoming a member at the local club again.
