  1. 5 or 6 folk's alone in the (northern) wildnerness. With a spring arrival. I was just wondering what if say 5 or 6 of us guy's or gal's with minimum retirement income were to combine thier monies. Could we survive a winter in the north? Some where were we could hunt , look for food and nuts in the fall, winter meat when the season is right should be no problem. Building a shelter for 6, Suppling a wood supply for heat, preserving the food all these could present a problem. However if we only had $4000.00 a month and worked together could we do it? Or would it cost more? Or are the risk's of all working together the negative factor?

  2. I have never seen such a uninformed bunch as those on this forum. You read one article and thats the truth as if written by God himself. You never check the source, you never investigate, you just take it as gospel. You just jump in with your ill informed opinions, knowing you are quoting the truth. When in fact you are quoting some misguided person, who has not checked his own sources. And the cycle of misinformation keeps being repeated. Stop the BS here. Investigate, then give your opinion.

    If this don't get me barred nothing will!

  3. Lepards don't change spots. He still believes in the same old crap. One America for all countries on this continent. A free road to Canada from the south. He is just bending to the present opinion. No gun control, etc. He knows were the power lies at this time and is catering to it. When the pendolum swings again he will go with it.

  4. I don't intend to take anything away from our heroes. They are great!

     

    However, they say the range was 25 meters. Our deputy riflemen regulary trained for that and three aholes and three shots in three seconds by one deputy is pretty much doable. Three shooters is three times as good.

     

    Don't care about the controversy, just glad that Americans still aren't someone to f--- with. Don't think we ever will be, no matter how many dips gain control of politics, media and the campuses in our country. Our blood doesn't run through their veins, nor theirs through ours.

     

    B.

    Do your deputies train on a ship rolling on the ocean at a target that is also rolling on the ocean? I can shoot the eye out of a lincoln penny at 25 yds. on dry land with bench support. Throw your deputies in a boat on a calm lake and I bet they can't hit thier arse with a 2x4! That is if they aren't heaving over the side. Apples to apples not apples to oranges.

  5. Mauser receivers, excepting anti-tank rifles, come in four flavors, magnum, standard, intermediate and kurz or short. All miliatary receivers, again excepting anti-tank rifles, where in standard or intermediate length. K98ks are standard length receivers.

  6. If they are BELOW the wood line why worry? Do you plan to undress her for every visitor? Also if the action is in a safe condition why are you retreating? I think you are making mountains out of mole hills. A functinal receiver, a few small pits below the wood line. It's 101 years old its intitled to some character marks.

  7. I told you folks months ago. The secound guaranteed the right to firearms not the right to ammunition (powder or shot). The anti's finally relized you can't fight the 2nd but you can stop the ownership of powder and ball. When they are done you will be able to own a Browning 50 cal machine gun. Of course it will be for display only as possession of an explosive powder in any form will carry the automatic death sentence. Then they will require you to give up the 50 cal. for raw material to suppport the good of the people. God I hope I'm dead by then.

  8. Your guess is as good as mine!! Looks like it has some potential if you have a bolt assembly. What kind of mag floor plate does it have?

    I don't know have not recieved gun yet. I just thought the sites were worth the price. I hope so anyway. When it does get here I'll try to post some better pics. I was hoping for an I.D. before it got here so I would know what bolt to look out for.

  9. Its a bolt action single shot made by Stevens. It's an early model 15 without a butt plate. However the retail seller had thier name (JIM BROWN) put on the gun and not the Stevens name. Its this company i'm asking for info on.

    Thanks

  10. Swampie there is a Savage/Stevens collector's group out there somewhere on the net. I haven't been there for a few years but I think I found the link from Savage's official website.

    Az

    Thanks I'll see if I can find them. Never thought there was a collectors forum for Stevens. Old brain is failing fast!

  11. I purchased a 22 single shot rifle with the name Jim Brown. I have learned it is a Stevens early model 15. Stevens made several of thier guns marked with sellers name instead of Stevens. I am looking for info on Jim Brown. I bought this rifle because of the name. A real close friend of mine by the same name passed away from lung cancer. I bought this gun to restore as a rememberance to him. I would really like info on this Jim Brown.

    Thanks

    A bit o news I thought I'd share.....

     

     

    In Honor of the 44th President of the United States , Baskin-Robbins Ice Cream has issued a new flavor, " Barocky Road .."

     

    Barocky Road is a blend of half Vanilla, half Chocolate, and surrounded by Nuts and Flakes.

     

    The Vanilla portion of the mix is not openly advertised and usually denied as an ingredient.

     

    The Nuts and Flakes are all very bitter and hard to swallow.

     

    The Cost is $100.00 per scoop.

     

    When purchased, it will be presented to you in a large beautiful cone, but then the Ice Cream is taken away and given to the person in line behind you.

     

    Thus you are left with an empty wallet, no change, holding an empty cone, with no hope of getting any Ice Cream.

     

    Aren't you feeling stimulated?
