on a lighter note...

Ha! Ha! When every once in a great while my maternal grandparents would babysit my two brothers and I on a Saturday night and we had to endure watching this for an hour on the one tv in their home.
Good grief, me too! Now I'm watching it on purpose. It's hell getting old.

Both Lawrence Welk and my Grandparents were born and raised in North Dakota, so I guess that was the connection.
 
Wow, all of you folks grandparents had a TV?

Right now I enjoy watching all of the shows from the 60's and 70's since I never watched TV after school or on weekends. After school I'd get my homework done and then be gone playing sports or other activities until around 10pm.

Mine did. Black and white of course. The men had to have TV to watch the games on Thanksgiving, Christmas and she's Years! My grandfather also watched Friday Night Fights. Anyone else remember the boxing?

Dad always watched the fights, I still remember the Cashis Clay/Sonny Listen fight. We were in Silver City, New Mexico at the time.

Silver City, that’s a blast from the past. I’ve had some good quail hunts there!

Get out from in front of the tv and go shovel your driveway. It’ll bring back fond childhood memories. LOL

Hi Marcus

What sling studs do those swivels fit ? They look to be quite a bit wider than the standard modern swivels. They may be just what I need for my Remington 30 Express wide swivel studs. Can you measure the pin diameter ?

Do you know where your .240 Weatherby was manufactured?
