    What is the draw of a Ruger#1?

    Don't get me wrong I couldn't agree more on the rifle part; as far as an old warhorse, not so much.

    What is the draw of a Ruger#1?

    I really like the No. 1. When I was telling my Father how much I liked mine he let me finish talking then asked me "Why the hell do you want a 100 year old design?".

    2 hours of some of the finest blue grass music ever made

    Thanks Matt. It's been a lot of years since I've seen/listened to this. Earl and Lester would be proud of you.

    African Hunting Safari For Two

    I'd like to book a suite at The Breakers for the same cost as Motel 6. Maybe some here can help with that. To quote a fine Irishman, 'He is a man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.'

    The Mystery Of The Wild Horses From The Namib - Namibia

    Interesting article. Other than the need of some groceries for the two studs and those at the watering hole, they are fit, good looking horses from some obviously good stock.

    The Animal Moved

    I guess the Tracker thought his job was done. Just reading about a close quarters charge is exciting. Well done Sir.

    New Mauser, Worth It?

    Gentlemen thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. I have to confess my disappointment that Mauser made no mention of accuracy (that I found), and frankly accuracy is a major portion of a gun's value to my way of thinking. I'll look forward to receiving all the thoughts on the...

    New Mauser, Worth It?

    Greetings Gents, I have been looking at rifles and really would appreciate opinions on new Mausers. No need to have one, or have had one, I will value all opinions - except those saying I don't need a new gun. As a lefty, I was looking at the M 03. It is a modular design, so of course I...

    Reality Check By Hans Vermaak

    Everyone knows hunting lions causes global warming. Meanwhile, no word on the racist mugabi who in typical communist tradition has slaughtered and tortured an innumerable amount of Zim citizens.

    Selling A Firearms Collection

    Best of luck with this Bill. I can only say how I would (and did) it. Pick a say lot of 10 of the least desirable/least value and sell them off first. I'd continue in increments so that I would not live with any regrets from being hasty. Few things turn out better done in a hurry, and remember...

    A Memorable Spear Hunt With A Difference...

    Sounds like you had some practice with the spear before the hunt, well done, no easy task to place the shot. Just want to say very enjoyable read. The forthcoming argument of big, low velocity spears vs. the penetration of small, high velocity spears that is compelled of hunters should be...

    Looking For A Left Handed .375

    I think the gentlemen above gave good advice, a Remington, Ruger, or Browning would be a good choice. Either may feed better than the CZ as from the factory, and probably at 1/2 the price. The CZ is also very heavy IMO.
