Show your shame: Safe Queens Edition!
Man, this thread is continuing to amaze me! What's great is how many of our safe queens are family heirlooms; those guns tell the history of how our families got to where we are.- ZLBubba

An Apology to Berger Customers
I can unabashedly admit that I am the most disloyal brand guy in the world. I only use what works for me, and whether it says Remington, Surgeon, S&B, US Optics, Manners or McMillan on the side, I don't give two shits. The only thing that matters to me is that it shoots straight. Now, the one...- ZLBubba

Thanks! I like the feeling that my appreciation for fine firearms has been handed down over the years. This is my favorite pistol, but I baby it, oil it, and do all I can to keep it in great condition. I even have my GGF's original holster for it.- ZLBubba

This thread is turning out awesome. I don't have nearly as great a story as that old Colt SAA, but I do have my great-grandfather's S&W 38-44 HD that he carried as a policeman in Peoria, IL. I've got about 80 more years to wait until it has the family history as the Colt, but man it's great...- ZLBubba

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

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!- ZLBubba

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!- ZLBubba

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...- ZLBubba

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!- ZLBubba

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

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...- ZLBubba

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.- ZLBubba

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...- ZLBubba

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...- ZLBubba

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...- ZLBubba

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...- ZLBubba
