    You're financing the retirement of the ever expanding bureaucratic dynasties they've built.

    What is more poplular Ebay or Gunbroker?

    You didn't let me check both. Bought some on AA too. And who knows where else the last 40 years. A lot. You got it I want it I buy it Now it's mine, I don't come crawling back whining. Can't remember doing that. Well,... maybe once. Might have mentioned a thing or two before but that's all...

    BSA BSA Super Sport Magnum .22 Cal.

    The fly in the ointment is the 14mm scope rail. Terrible idea, everything about it. Leupold vertical split rings are the way to go. Everything else puts the scope too high. And they’re cheap on FeeBay Shown on my BSA Challenger

    BSA BSA Super Sport Magnum .22 Cal.

    Always enjoyed watching Dave Roper ride Dick Mann's Rocket 3 at AHRMA vintage road races. The 1930's BSA V twins were about the most beautiful V twins ever made. I have both as well. Very easy to cock for the power level

    Let us not forget June 6th

    Thank you for the reminder. Dad was in the Navy at that time. But I don’t know where he was then. His brother’s ship was sunk off the coast of Africa in 1943. He and other men floated in a lifeboat for a month before being discovered by a Spanish fishing boat. Dad onboard the Intrepid during...

    Prepared to own a .25

    IMO a lot of shooters have overlooked the .25 caliber springers. I wouldn't want it for my only springer but I really like mine. Tomahawk and Stingray They both prefer HN FTT so I stick with them. And they are the lightest .25 available which provides the least trajectory. Something to...

    What springer did you shoot today?

    Picnic with family Saturday before going to our family farm pond at dusk to cast flies for bluegills. 3 strikes and did not get a hook up. Shot an HW55 and a 1919 Light pattern Improved Model D BSA off hand at a plastic bottle 40 or 50 shots lit up by my headlights. Went to Clarks Creek this...

    HW/Weihrauch I LOVE my HW30!

    I have 4 HW30’s and R7’s, but…. Just thinking. This was likely the sentiment towards the BSA Light Patterns over a century ago. The L prefix designated Ladies at first but soon referred to as Light because it is a smaller, lighter version that could be loved by everybody. Lighter and handy at 39...

    Daisy 1894 restoration

    That stuff flows out pretty nice from a rattle can. Most rattle can paints don't level well. Problem is the color. Factory just used enamel. If black is satisfactory I use Rustoleum oil enamel sprayed through one of these mini spray guns and get terrific results with no orange peel. Flows out...

    Other Recommendations for 10yo?

    A Crosman 3100 I picked up somewhere. Cometa 100. I still have it. I was reluctant to hand them high end guns at that age. Our 3 sons are very disciplined and could be trusted to handle the gun and shoot on their own when we were shooting tin cans together. I never had them paper punching. And...

    Other Recommendations for 10yo?

    A year later, Nash with a Daisy El Gamo 120. Weston at 15 with an R7. Rocking his wrestling team shirt. Went 22/2 on the Jr high team 👍

    Other Recommendations for 10yo?

    How about a Fabarm underlever? Truth is all of these guns are too big for a 10 year old. Nash is 20 now and off on his mechanical engineering internship today. Weston in the background is 24
