Got back from the relatives houses.. Lots of loose change in the cushions. I am now well heeled.
Was told that there was a gun show this next weekend in Columbus. Is this true???
Can not find anything about it.??
I have not heard if The Salem show is on for this weekend...
And can someone else confirm to DoggyDaddy that is not the same place that held the Witch trials.. Is it???
Years ago, one of the great obscure gun sites of all time went down. 9mmlogo.com. It had details of Firearms that shot this wonderful caliber. Sadly it went away. But for the holidays it has returned under a new name.

So lets pass the eggnog or let the feats of strength...
My bet is there are some legal ramifications here.. But Brazilian man arms his Drone with Fireworks and shoots at his neighbors..

To bad no one did not put up some anti Drone fire.. would have been real Mad Max
Well I know there are a few safety issues..,, but once you get past that.. It is a stunning visual..

2 thoughts.. I hope some of those ghutras use Kevlar and I love some of the old geezers in the crowd that are not intimidated by that fancy new...
So must say that when you go shooting at the range on Sundays, one meets a whole better class of shooter.. Met with Doggydaddy for some overdue trigger time and to see if he could get his Ortgie to work. (Moral of that story do not take an Ortgie apart at the range).
But our neighbor had set...
What a great toy, talk about a new level when playing U-Boat commander...

Help ID this Badge on some BAR Bandoliers .. Picked up a couple of 1918 BAR Bandoliers today at a Garage Sale. Do not know if they are Repro or not. They are not marked on the back anywhere. But what got me was that both has this pin placed it one of the flaps.. Anyone see this before??
Came across 2 really fantastic books. The books originate from a bunch of never published 1955 interviews. The Authors
Grandfather was a Correspondent for the German propaganda magazines Die Wehrmacht and Signal. He visited the Atlantic wall in May of 1944 and then in 1955.

Just picked this up. Some ingenious rascal said I want an M1 carbine and I am not going to pay the high cost. So they took their Japanese Arisaka and decided to make as close a copy to an M1 that they could.

Came across this little item about reloading 32 Rimfire.. From looking at other places, the biggest negative is that the brass is a tad fragile and can be damaged.. that being said looks better than nothing..
Viddy well little brothers viddy well...
Always amazing how military hardware hangs around and is in use decades later. I would have hated to feed and upkeep those Panzers in a battlefield like that.. Parts must have been hard. But looking at some of the knocked out tanks, it seems they were in a more defensive mode...

Also sheds a little more light on the Reasons for Japanese internment camps.
