1873 Winchester

Recently went to the range with a new Uberti 1873 Winchester in 45 Long Colt.
After working up some loads, it appears a keeper may be 8 grains of Unique with a Hornady FTX 225 Grain on top. Some of my groups at 75 yards were around 1 inch. The gun is a beauty and I will soon add a tang sight and get a trigger job to reduce the current pull down to about 4 lbs.

More range reports to follow, but for now, here is watch she looks like.

Gunning On

Well, I recently upgrade my 45 year old ruger 10/22 with a new barrel and new stock, new extractor, hammer spring, and firing pin. Now at 50 yards, using Wolf target ammo I am getting .5 inch groups for 5 shots and some .3 inch groups for 3 shots.

I invested around $225 in the upgrades and it has put new life in the old warrior - the gun - not me.

On another more political note I observed in this mornings Politico how those in other countries continue to adore the annoited one...Mr. Oh Bama.

Here is my Politico comment that I posted.

It is so Politico of Politico to highlight the popularity outside the US of the first black US President who also has the distinction of being the first anti American President, the first openly socialist leaning President, the first anti-Israel President, just to name a few of his most significant firsts.

It will be a great counter point in the run up to the next election that as his domestic agenda and popularity diminish, those overseas affections for the downtrodden, picked upon, diminished Oh Bama, will rise - and once again the media elites, like Politco will decry the coming demise of American acceptance abroad.

Funny thing though, most of us average non elite Amercians who have borne the brunt of this reign of elitism won't give a damn about the overseas perception but will breath a deep sigh of relief when the burden of Obama is gone.

Well Time to Resume?

Been away from blogging for quite a while.

I will try to re-start, with informative articles etc.

Well What Now

So, disaster struck America, something most of us refused to believe could happen.

An avowed leftist, empty suit will now become the leader of the free world.

How long will our freedoms last with the black Messiah?

Not long, I suspect.

Within six months an Assault Weapons ban will be up for a vote.

An that will just be the beginning of the attack on your gun rights.

So...for the sometimes supporter of the second amendment.....just expect to lose what you have.

For those willing to march, write, and convince others....get ready to act.

Buy all the guns you can now....and all of those high cap mags you may never need. Pick up a couple of AKs....ARs and anything that is not a single shot.....because your tubular lever action will be outlawed in a few months....if it holds more than five rounds.

America has voted for change.....

So you will get what they voted for....mindless, blind, outrageous change that will set the stage for the collapse of this nations economic and social order beyond the current mess we are in.

If you think I am just to negative....think about it again....you may be just too naive.
