    USW Cape Buffalo?

    My only cape buffalo leather is a gun case and it will likely last longer than I will.

    I'm looking into a hunting trip to Italy and want to shoot driven game. The wild boar there are as big a pest as feral hog are here. Anyway, being a bit embarrassed to admit that I am probably the only enthusiastic American shooter/hunter who has never owned a 30'06, I wondered if a Remington...

    And it looked like this: Now imagine this car with four seats instead of two and you've got it. Even the color is correct.

    Well, I don't think I would really want one equipped with a sky-mount MG. I don't really believe in the zombie apocalypse, after all. But if the Canadian Army finds the vehicle a bit fragile for operations I must presume the answer to my question is 'No'.

    the Old Chuck Wagon meals on wheels

    Alpine? That's Hill Country, isn't it? I've been known to take a deer trip down that way now and again and might return. Thanks for the invite.

    No, the real appeal of the Mannlicher is the butter smooth action. However much I admire CZ's various Mausers, none of them can compare with the old Mannlicher. Of course, it wasn't as strong and it made using a scope a PITA. But it felt so good . . .

    Had an original Mannlicher once but it was built for someone so much smaller than I am that I had to let it go. Pity.

    It's nice but I could never get my mind around single action. S&W is my beat.

    Jeeves isn't really a valet, he's a gentleman's gentleman. It's a far superior sort of position. And if you haven't read the original Wodehouse, prepare for nights of continuous hilarity.

    None of them would fit.

    There are some crankier members who feel that the replacement of the M1 was the beginning of the end of the world but most of the guys have more sense. My web name is there for a reason.:rolleyes:

    I've had a passion for single shot rifles for longer than I want to admit being alive but for some reason never got one. I'm probably too cranky in my choice of calibers for something. And now, trying to bring my gunsafe under control, I think it's time to shed a few of the inhabitants. Anyone...

    Backing onto BLM or USFS land would be ideal.

    Abercrombie & Fitch Co., 1916 outfitting catalogue

    Ah, those were the days! In my childhood there was a 1948 Stoeger catalog out in the garage. Hours of happy perusing.

    Really? How fortunate. I have my grandfather's that I need to restock now that I've had it fully restored. Maybe I need to get on it.

    I do so love a peep-sighted Springfield porter! Talk about the Golden Age . . .

    I own a Henry slide action in .22 mag that I have yet to take to the range. I really must do something about that. Even though it is fishing season in the PNW, autumn will come around again and we're allowed to use rimfire on forest grouse. Yep, a range trip should be in the offing. Heck...

    So, for those with enough money is the Mercedes new G class a fitting descendent?
