Heart attack {Chief000731 Carl}
Hats off to Sandi for posting this. I do not post a lot, and if I dropped off I really doubt that my wife would post anything, not that she would not want to, but because she would not know how. She has gone to local computer classes but for some reason a computer intimidates her too much... -

Tilley Hats Question
Another agreement on the Tilley. I have one, cannot remember the model, but it has a band of mesh at the top where the crown meets the sides and is much cooler than the ones with just a couple of grommets for ventilation. It's one of the lighter tan colors, and with a darker color under the... -
9mm or 45cal
I really don't have a dog in this fight, but went back and read a few pages of posts and noticed that the link you provide states that Armscor inported and sold guns in the Phillipines prior to WWII, and finally were allowed to start manufacturing arms in 1952. It did not state what they...- jkingrph

HERITAGE grade Akubra Campdraft in Silver Belly Campaign
I got two, for different shapes. As far as color, I'm useing a couple of open roads for comparison, one older the other brand new. The Campdraft is definetly more on the tan side than is the OR which is a "whiter" or more silver gray. As far as the new OR, they are both in the same tan range... -
9mm or 45cal
Good well thought out article. I tend to lean toward the .45 side of the argument, although I have a couple of 9mm. handguns. So far as difficult to handle, my worst is a Walther ppk 380 ACP. I had been into the .45 and 9mm shooting for quite a while when the 10mm came out and got...- jkingrph

Cognac - where to begin?
When I get cognac it's usually Courvoisier VSOP. Living in a dry county I will generally pick up a couple of large bottles for the cold season. My preference is Armagnac, but finding it in this part of the country is so iffy. I have been in some of the "better" liquor stores and asked for...- jkingrph

What Did You Drink Last Night?
Actually straight coffee. The bottle of spirits was dry and we live in a dry county. Will probably restock when we go over to see our little grandson this weekend. I'll probably look for some different types of Scotch vs my old standby, The Famous Grouse.- jkingrph

Show us your Guns!
I have two of that model Win. 94 in my safe. One is definetly going to my grandson. I shoot mine, with cast bullets and it's a shooter, love that tang sight with that 26" barrel. I also have a couple of the Win 1895 Repros, in .405 Win. One highly engraved and inlaid like that Browning...- jkingrph

Most comfortable hat I have
The new Hitchhicker I got from Art. I have a couple of others by him but this one just feels better. The Arkubra's are fine, but I am more of a long oval, so the customs feel better. I have an old Resistol 4x western with a c crown type factory bash that feels good also. -
Something I'm missing?
Same here! I had posted a thread and Rick Blaine had replied then I noticed his thread about this and looked back and mine had immediately gotten a star, figure? -

Straw Open Road Offerings ?
Browsing around I found these two models of the Open Road by Stetson listed by Hartford York in addition to the standard model. Any idea what they are? There descriptions do not tell very much. http://www.hartfordyork.com/product/6733/stetson-hats... -

Stetson Open Road Panama Straw.
After reading about the Panama Open Road I contacted Meyer the Hatter, first by email, then phoned. While on the phone Paul Meyer tried a size 7 3/8 on and said it fit his normal 7 1/4 head fine so I decided to give it a try. This was mid day Wednesday and the hat arrived this afternoon just... -

Having varied interests, I frequent quite a few different forums. I find search functions generaly very frustrating and often difficult to use, and am no newbie to them, just dont' like them.
