    Do your kids shoot?

    My daughter and 3 sons grew up shooting. My oldest was not quite 4 years old the first time he shot a handgun with help from me. They are all adults now but growing up I got them involved in 4H shooting sports in which I was one of the instructors. I made it very clear to them at a young age...

    Show yer Peacemakers, folks!

    Never thought about buying a single action revolver, then came across a deal I couldn't refuse. Local cowboy (SASS) club was having a gun raffle for several different guns. Bought a ticket for $20, forgot about the drawing and then one night got a call saying I won a choice of gun. Best of...

    Parker Hale M-85 Build

    I built two M85 rifles from cast receivers (and still have two more receivers), one for my oldest son and one for me. They are both chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor. If doing it now, I think I would go with a 6mm Creedmoor. Going to disagree about the scope mounts. I took steel picatinny rails...

    Son lives in SW Missouri and has a spray foam insulation business. Sent this picture this morning saying he was spraying for an Amish business today. They cannot hook up to the power grid so they run a solar generator with battery banks to power their tools.
