    What pens are we carrying today?

    So what are you known by at FPN, I'n DeaconKC there too. I may have to carry my newest pen tomorrow. Just got a Pelikan 215 and it is soooooo nice. Just a little heavier than my 400 or 150, the extra just feels better.

    I wholeheartedly agree on the instruction from a knowledgeable person. Please remember, safety first.

    RF, I've got my Dad's old 11-48. It also has the Polychoke, it was a factory option. I have a copy of the old manual for it. If you want me to make a copy for you, send me your address at deaconkc@mchsi.com

    Good points anon'. Actually Rule #4 is "Always Know what is beyond your target." As always, safety first. As you emphasized the safe gun handler always treats all firearms as if loaded at ALL times.

    What pens are we carrying today?

    I usually carry a Cross ATX for work, as it has metal to metal threads. If it gets rolled on, etc. it stands a very good chance of surviving. Either that or one of my Javelins or Waterman HD pens.

    Wow, used it in church yesterday, it is definitely my day off pen. But for work, something a little heavier to survive.

    Shoe Repair

    Went to Penney's today to pick up a pair of Florsheim's they ordered in for me. I had a pair like this 25 years ago and loved them. These were flimsy. Made me quite sad to see that even for $100.00 what once was a great brand has fallen off. Suggestions for a nice half or demi boot in that...

    Fedora64, if you can live with a quartz watch, Colibri's are very nice.

    BigShoe, thanks for the answers. I'm sorry to hear Florsheim's quality has fallen off. If you get any "abandoned" 12 EEEs there PM me!

    Oh ,and the Argie is a fine shooter, bites my hand pretty good though [fat paws]. It does not like HPs, but few guns from back then do without polishing on the ramps.

    LOL on the red shellac. Yup, it is a "wonderful" color, isn't it? If you decide to redo a Mosin, try Minwax Mahogany, it is an excellent match.

    One thing to beware of, when you do get them resoled. Specify leather or you might wind up with a rubber/compostion sole by assumption.

    That is in very nice shape. Was it a vet bringback?
