    Yeah, I'm drooling over that Colt SAA. Wow, what a pistol! And the family provenance just makes it that much better?

    Show your shame: Safe Queens Edition!

    Alright, if we're getting shotguns out, then take a look at this. My great-grandmother's 1919 LC Smith 20 ga double barrel. What a beauty. I was I took better pictures!

    Its time for Tac Op Porn

    I appreciate the offer, HT. I've got about 1k 230gr Berger Hybrids sitting in my reloading chest waiting for me to get off my ass and load up for this rifle. Still, I've got other projects that have taken precedence... for now!

    Yeah, I saw that rifle. The bluing almost looks matte, which is obviously wrong. Is it just the lighting? I honestly thought that it looked re-blued. What I'd like to do is get a solid pre-64 magnum action and build a 375 H&H dangerous game gun with it. Still, I'd only use it on a bear hunt...

    There's some awesome rifles coming out now. It's cool to see those rigs. Bob, I was looking on GB today for a pre-64 Model 70. Love that gun. And I've always wanted a Sharps. Keep these safe queens coming!

    This is one of the grave dangers of removing safe queens from their sanctuaries.

    I'm undecided. But this is just Bologna.

    I've seen what happens when nations (Italy and Switzerland, I'm talking to you) pay ransoms to terrorist organizations. We saw a significant jump in IEDs and ambushes on Filipino Marines in JSOTF-P the month after the two European nations paid ransoms for the ICRC hostages the Abu Sayyaf had...

    I think the Lima 66 is a 24" barrel. I have a 20" barrel on my Tango 51, but I like the longer tube for the big boomers. That Browning is a piece of art! I love it.

    Cigar thread 2.0

    I wanted to get a little more diversity in my humidor so I recently picked up a half dozen Liga Privada Undercrown Robustos, Crowned Heads Four Kicks torpedos, and Aging Room Quattro Churchills. So far, all of the sticks have been excellent and yet different for my pallet. The real winner of...

    Movie Theater Anyone Read A Good Fiction Novel Lately?

    I just started reading Shogun by James Clevell. It's great storytelling. I highly recommend it.

    Man, I'm the only guy feeling guilty for having a safe queen?

    Since I just posted on the Safe Queen thread (http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/snipers-hide-bolt-action-rifles/269830-show-your-shame-safe-queens-edition.html), I might as well add to the Tac Ops porn page. I've got two Tac Ops, one Tango 51 and one Lima 66. Both are incredible shooters...

    Show Your Hunting Rifles!

    My go-to big game rifle is a 300WM Titanium Clone build by Red Hawk Rifles. It's a great shooter, though I had to switch out the BC stock that came with it. Other than that, she's been really good to me. The rifle doesn't weigh much at all, thus she kicks like an ornery mule, even with the...

    My name is ZLBubba, and I've got a safe queen. (The crowd murmurs "Hi ZL" in response.) My most shameful safe queen is a Tac Ops Lima 66. This is a holy grail gun that I waited two years to get, but in that time I acquired two guns that fit my LR bill perfectly, a 6Creed GAP-10 when I want to...

    Job Market in Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area

    I lived quite a while in the Triangle area and absolutely loved it. I'd relocate from DC to that area in a heartbeat. The last time I looked jobs were fairly plentiful if you were a business professional, which it seems you are. The tricky part will be finding a good gig close to where your...

    Truck gun optic

    Options are good, and more options are better. In that spirit, I'd say give a good look to the USO 1-8 or 1.8-10. I have the 1-8 on my AR battle rifle, and the 1.8-10 on my Gradous truck gun, and I really like them both. Of the entire USO line, those two models are my favorites. I'm not...
