Re: why not a legal Howdah

anyone know where the name Howdah came from....don't gooogle it I know the answer but I kinda cheated, even if it was before you asked. The link posted by lilwoody has a link to a 30 min. Hickock45 video about loading & shooting his Pedersoli replica & he mentions the origins etc. Here's a ...

Traveling to Deerfield Il.

Me & Mrs. Bmup are taking a road trip to see family in Deerfield, Il. I know my Florida CWL is good for every state we'll be going through... but what happens in Illinois? Also, you may remember Deerfield was the town that banned AR15s outright even though they legally couldn't. Does anyone happ...

Because I'm shocked, shocked I tell you, that Publix is NOT a gun free zone! What's the number for Atty. Benjamin L. Crump? Prolly need a leg transplant after all this is over...

Re: Henry levergun

Looks like I'm going with .30-30 because ammo is more available. I will probably be reloading some anyway & Starline is reasonably priced for new brass. I also found out I can buy Hornady flextip (FTX) bullets in .308 if I want to go that route. Thanks everyone for your input & sage advice. ...

Re: Any other 1911 addicts here?

Well maybe I could just taper off a little at first...
