    Making a Brown Bess look more authentic

    My wife and I just finished watching the movie "Twelve Angry Men" for about the tenth time.(the original with Henry Fonda) My favorite line in the whole movie was when a juror says :"Pardon me please, I would like to say something", and another juror answers "Why do you have to be so darn...

    Clarification if muzzleloaders are weapons

    Just an amusing statement from the 1972 musical "1776". John Adams is upset with the lack of support for independence, so he makes this statement: "If you see one useless man, that is a disgrace, if you see two useless men, that is a law firm, if you see three or more useless men, by God you...

    Clarification if muzzleloaders are weapons

    I am not sure about kitchen knives, but the last time I checked, you could still carry a sheath knife on your belt, in public, as long it is not concealed. I have done so myself while hiking in the mountains of Southern California. One time after a hike I stopped at an Aldi supermarket on the...

    Clarification if muzzleloaders are weapons

    Thus far, they are not considered modern weapons in california. They can be shipped to your door, or you can purchase them at a non ffl pawn shop.

    I have a .40 caliber Kibler smr, that was gifted to me by my brother a few years ago, it is the most beautiful long gun I have ever owned.

    How do you eat them

    I just had grits yesterday for breakfast. I make it with sliced Polish Kielbasa, black pepper, and a couple of shakes of good cayenne pepper. The sausage meat supplies the salt for a flavor-full balance. I find that a slightly spicy, savory recipe, makes even the worst coffee taste good. My...

    Kibler Hawken?

    When the Viking hands a battle sword to the Arab in the 13th Warrior, the Arab says : " I cannot lift this !" The Viking says " Grow stronger !" That is very good advice.

    Who Needs A Rifle? The Walker At 100 Yards

    Unless of course, you learn to shoot your pistol the way the Mongols and Tartars shot their bows. They would not fire unless all four hooves were off the ground, thus, having a more stable platform to shoot to from. But you would have know your horse as good as you know your pistol.

    American Primeval on Netflix

    I have actually done that some years ago. It was quite interesting. I had the occasion to talk with an older man who claimed to be a member of their clergy class, on the finer points of their theology. When I brought up Brigum Young's "Avenging Angels" the Danites", he chose to end our conversation.

    Due for a good film

    The Big Country is an outstandingly good western. It is a typical Hollywood production, where all the actors were dressed like they were in a Bonanza episode. However, you soon forget about that once the story unfolds. And the incredible cast, with the very good acting, and the chosen actors to...
