      Help with colt?? 1911

      A lot of companies made 1911 frames over the years. I am confident your slide is a Colt. It's worn probably from buffing and refinishing but it is a Colt. The frame is anybody's guess but I would think Colt is not in the mix. As noted above, Colt serial #'s are stamped. So it is probably a...

      Anybody here raise tomatoes ? Couple of questions .

      I had great results using "Black Kow" manure fertilizer and planting the tomatoes so that they only got sun for half the day. The heat of SE TX will burn them up if placed where they get full sunlight. Good Luck!

      .350 legend for Louisiana deer?

      My longest with the 300wsm was a cow elk in CO at 525 yards. (I was a tad younger then) Of course, I felt much older haulin her out! I was not saying, that the ranges I stated were absolute. Just that I limit myself as the deer are big and heavy and I want to harvest them cleanly with a good...

      .350 legend for Louisiana deer?

      Dang Danny, I almost feel under gunned when I hunt in NE Louisiana the deer are so big! Down in SE Texas, we have 80# does and anything seems to put them on the ground. When I kill a deer in NE Louisiana, I always need help loading those corn fed rascals! I limit myself to 100 yards with my...

      Spy Point is the worst brand of hunting equipment ever

      I was gifted 2 Spy Link cams that were purchased at Academy. I think I had seen them priced at $149. They were easy to set up, will accept external power supply. Worked like a champ, got so many pics that I had to go with the unlimited pic plan but cut it off after I stopped hunting. Got...

      Help w/ Family Heirloom Wood Stock Repair

      I would check with some local woodworkers, the old way to repair it is to cut a keyway and put a wafer in to give strength between the two pieces. I don't think you could clean it good enough to get epoxy to stick between them and if you clamp it it will mostly squeeze out leaving not much glue...

      Deer tags

      The LA wallet feature is not available to me because I reside outside Louisiana. I grew up in Louisiana from the age of 1, but since I wasn't born there, I can't get the Louisiana Native license as well. Thankfully, I still have family with land to hunt on in Louisiana and it is in a good...

      Deer tags

      I was surprised when I purchased my hunting license/tags this year. I also opted for and signed up for the "text to tag" feature. I still don't like the license print out on plain paper. I will send LDWF a note expressing my displeasure but unless a bunch does it, don't think it will matter...

      Zero turn mowers

      I have 2 Zero turn mowers. The oldest is a Husqvarna RZ5424.......54" deck and a 24 HP Kohler. The newer one is a JD Z535M with a 48" deck. Both will cut grass faster then a cat can...well you get the point. I change oil each season and make sure the blades are sharpened. The JD is a...

      Cannelure and Cartridge Overall Length

      In years past, projectiles were made for a cartridge and if they had a cannelure/crimp ring, the case mouth is where it was made to go. Most military cartridges are crimped to prevent the projectile being accidently pushed back in the case where it could cause problems for the user in times of...

      Leaked ATF Document- Plans to get rid of "Ghost Gun"

      You might want to use Google or Duck or a decent search engine. His father was a Orthodox priest and supposedly abused poor Joseph. He was supposed to follow his father into becoming a Orthodox priest but remembering the abuse he did not and declared himself a "non believer". This is a...

      Leaked ATF Document- Plans to get rid of "Ghost Gun"

      Joseph Stalin was raised as a Orthodox Christian. He persecuted Christians after becoming a non believer. He was never a Catholic.
