      Your favorite handgun for the range?

      TC Contender with choice of 22Mag, .223, .357, or 30-30. Depends on how the wrist feels that day and how much ammo I have. Regards, Dad

      Deer backstrap

      I make a rub with garlic powder, coarse ground black pepper and salt. Rub it in and let it sit about an hour and then sear over grill. Mmmmmm!

      Steak night?

      If you are ever passing through Robert on a Wednesday night, Cooter Browns has a pretty good offering.

      Cracklins

      It is a little drive from Baton Rouge but when I am on the west side of the river, I stop at Poche's in Breaux Bridge. Good head cheese too.

      Semi auto shotgun?

      B44, In my autos I. have Beretta 303's, 390's, a 391, and an A400. I also have an Benelli SBEII. I have had Remingtons, Franchis, and Brownings. I prefer the gas operated guns because of their weight, it helps with my follow-through. The Benelli, although a fine gun, seems like I am waving...

      Walmart Denham Springs Ammo

      I was a Home Depot manager for 10 years. Although we are not talking apples for apples, this sort of thing happened many times. You would have got it for that price, our mistake. I had people come back and spend much, much more than I ever gave away! Consistently!

      finding an over under

      Chalmette gun show

      I would suggest the SMGA show (Southern Mississippi Gunowners Association). It's on Hwy 49 just north of I-10, a small show but a real gun show - Nuttin but pickups and rednecks! If you don't find anything you like there head down south on hwy 49 to Dad's Gun and Pawn. Always worth a stop...

      Moral dilemma - requesting opinions

      From the expanded picture in Austin's post, I can't see a "cylinder ring". 686s are really hot right now but will they be in 5,10, 15 years? No ring, I say put it in the safe and get it out and clean it twice a year. A ring, shoot. Can't decide, find a whipped up one and shoot the hell out...
