Cast iron
I have quite a collection, and most gets used at times. My wife says it's too heavy for her arthritic hands, so most of it is kept in a cabinet outside. One of my favorites is a large round bottom pot with lid, that holds a little over 5 Gal. We use it for making large batches of soups...- jkingrph

I inherited one from my dad. He had one with a 2" barrel that I could really shoot well and hit with, and told him if he wanted to get rid of it I would buy it. He forgot and sold it to a man he worked with to my sorrow. I really liked that 2" k frame, and if I ever see one will probably...- jkingrph

I am in Jacksonville, just south of Tyler. I had my wife in Tyler for a followup doctors appoint yesterday afternoon and we saw a few tiny snowflakes, and some more on the way home, nothing to accumulate though. I talked to my sister over in Port Gibson, Miss, just south of Vicksburg and...- jkingrph

Appreciate the offer, but I never get south of Lufkin, or very much west of Palestine. Our family is all east of here and nearly all of our travels go east.- jkingrph

Brightly-colored fedoras anyone?
All I have are a few in darker greens, one Stetson Stratoliner in sage, and a couple of Akrubra green's. Lastly there is an old German alpine style for Octoberfest. -

Ah, Renault! Your are always coming up with something nice. I like that sliding patchbox, and the wood on the other. I got interested in muzzloaders back about 1970 and got one of those Remington Zouave repro rifles in 58 caliber. I was shooting at my uncles and he said to use a big oak for...- jkingrph

Safari Express rifle pic thread
Made a mistake mine is a M46, don't think there is any such thing as a M 43. When and if I hunt it's in the Piney woods of E Texas, most likely over in NE Louisiana, or W central Miss along the river , occasionally in central or S Georgia with the wife's folks, but as we are all getting older...- jkingrph

Safari Express rifle pic thread
I don't have one of those, but do have a 9.3x57. Probably the only one in town, possibly the county. Rare enough to have never seen ammo in a store. It's nowhere approaching the .375 H&H level, but much more pleasant to shoot. My gun is a 1929 vintage Husqvarna 43.- jkingrph

The Stratoliner Appreciation Club {MODERN}
I just received one of the Stratoliners in Sage. I like the contrasting brown ribbon and binding, making for a more casual look. I am liking the green colors more, although this one is a bit dark. I think my favorite is the Arkbura in Bluegrass Green. I also have a Stratoliner on order in... -

Have a Stetson Stratoliner in Cornhill on order from Delmonico. I just received one in sage with the lighter brown ribbon and binding. -
Hat Storage Question
I have boxes that my felt hats came in. When warm weather arrives I put the felt hats back in boxes along with a couple of moth bolls and have no moth problems. Come cooler weather I take them out and odor is gone in a couple of days and my straw hats are in boxes for the winter. It probably... -

Yes I have a M43 Husqvarna sporter in 9.3x57. Your comments on the stock are right on, it shoulders more like a fine sxs shotgun than a rifle. It's a 1929 vintage and is only stamped 9.3 cal, and serial number is on the barrel, not the receiver. I had thought of rechambering to x63 but...- jkingrph

That thing's just begging to be shot! The 96 Swede is my favorite among the Mauser's. I got my first via an acquaintance who got a FFL probably 20 or so years ago. He was wanting to use it so I got him to order me a Swede. I think I paid $68 for mine, a 1898 vintage. A few years ago at a...- jkingrph

Lovely, I have a Parker GH from 1910 or 1911, probably the best shooting shotgun I have. I also have a Husqvarna sidelock hammergun that is probably the most graceful looking gun, more along the lines of the classic British game guns. I had my son out shooting some clay pigeons. He has...- jkingrph

I can also remember when we had "western day". The guns came out. Apparently a lot of guys had real western rigs, and wore them complete with ammo in belt loops. No one said anything. Although guns were technically not allowed on campus , a lot of those guys living in dorms, had cars with...- jkingrph

We had to drill with and learn manual of arms with the M 1 back in college ROTC. I got my personal Garand about 40 years later, and have never gotten a M 1 thumb. I did see a bunch back in the college days though. All those drill rifles did not have firing pins. I promptly got on the small...- jkingrph
