    That is a great fact for a beautiful firearm.

    What do you collect other than Hats

    I collect Fountain pens, both vintage and modern, but my primary collecting is firearms, especially WW2 types.

    fountain pens

    http://myworld.ebay.com/l.v.vandyke/ I have several vintage pens that have been restored by him and cannot speak highly enough of his skill and service. Also, Esterbrook pens were a staple for many years and are reasonably priced. The Parker 45 is an excellent value and writer. Also look at...

    Fountain pens - ostentatious?

    I carry FPs daily on my job. And as I am a Prole Agent sometimes they get bounced around. My expensive or older vintage pens stay home and are reserved for Sunday usage. My Cross ATX, Shaeffer Javelin, a couple of Waterman Harleys, a Namiki Pilot and a Parker 45 see use in the daily rotation. I...

    Great selections gents. The Savage is a total classic, a true heirloom even if it wasn't an inheritance. The Merwin Hulbert is a beauty, can't wait to see a range report on all of them.

    What do you use to shave?

    Morgan, you can also squeeze some into the end of your brush and face lather. I use that method when traveling. My brush travels in a prescription bottle that I drilled a couple of holes in the cap, my trusty Gillette Tech is in a plastic soap box with a couple of derby blades and it is good to go.

    Baseball smile

    No matter how the Cardinals end this season, at least we can always make fun of the Cubs. Twenty major events that have occurred since the Chicago Cubs last laid claim to a World Series championship: 1. Radio was invented; Cubs fans got to hear their team lose. 2. TV was...

    DE shaving issues

    If you don't have the scrubbing bubbles [they are the BEST], let it soak overnight in some water and dish detergent, then use the toothbrush. A little 3in1 oil or good gun oil [just a drop] on the mechanism.

    DE shaving issues

    I'm a wet shaver too. Using DE vintage razors gives me the shave I like. Derby blades are my favorite, but I only get about three good shaves from them because of a very coarse beard. And by the way, check out the gorgeous razors CooncatBob makes, beautiful doesn't even describe it.

    I like these sights better as the peep is a lot bigger. Definitely helps with glasses! But I gotta admit the 1927 just looks cooler.

    Nope, not a Class 3, I can dream though! I may pop for the $200 SBR stamp for it some day. It looks really good in the rack with the Garand,1903A3 and other WW2 guns. Micahel, where was the range? And are you still here?

    Thanks for the links. Mine is a used Auto Ordnance [pre-Kahr] and the 'surp magazines work perfectly.

    Basic personal possessions of the 1930's American male

    There's an old Scot's proverb that still rings true: "Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without." Many folks used to live by that. I prefer to travel light, but the lovely lady I'm married to, prefers plenty of extra clothes when we travel.

    fountain pens

    Neo, you can have Cross put a fine nib on the pen very reasonably. The Cross pens are rugged and reliable, I carry one almost daily for work.
