Well i missed my chance at a trophy today. I could see this suckers rack over the brush as it walked toward me for a 10 minutes and it looked like a moving tree. at least an 10 pointer with all of em tall and straight. The perfect buck. He stopped about 40 yards from me in between two trees. Last year i missed a doe in the same situation by blowing out the tree, so i decided to wait for him to get clear. Well this guy didnt get THAT BIG on public land by being dumb. He made me and took off into the brush. I didnt realize how big he was until he leaped in the air. he was MASSIVE. I tracked him for a little while then the trail went cold. Its hard with an invasive sticker bush thats 5 feet high on its own and 12 ft when it grows up a tree. Nasty shite. Any ways my legs are all cut up and i was tired and frustrated that i didnt shoot when i could have so i packed it in early. Then to add to my awesome day, i got home and unpacked and my mag for my 06 was missing. It mustve fallen out of my pocket when i unloaded to walk back to my truck. a replacement is $50. FML.

That's some real tough luck there Clich, but not as bad as this guy. I found him eaten up by the Coyotes.

That sucks Clich! Wish you better luck next time.
 
So you guys did it again. As soon as my wage for November shows up on my bank account (which will be today or tomorrow), I will order a BK-7. Giving that "big knife" thing I keep hearing about another try :D

Edit:

So the money showed up right after I posted this. Guess what I did :D

Dude!! I think you're gonna love the 7!!! It's one of my top choices to carry.

If you don't like it we can always try to trade again ;)
 
Just wanted to thank 1066vik for doing such a damn fine job on this holster. It's hard to find a good holster for a Single-Six 4 1/2 inch. Really nice custom job, perfect fit and finish Eric. :thumbup:

I didn't know you did holsters Vik. I have a beautiful Model 19 in need of some leather.

Oh yeah, he does great work. Hey man, I love those Model 19s. I've got one made in the '70s that looks new. Not a lot of us wheelgun fans around these days.
 
TW, I like to look around for older wheel guns. Mine is a cherry nickel 19 with walnut grips. I don't shoot it that much but it will keep up with any other gun I have accuracy wise.
 
Trade, a Single action revolver is one of the toughest guns on the planet, so they make a great woods gun.
I loves me some wheel guns, My dad had a toy revolver when I was a kid, from when he was a kid that looked and acted like a real gun, with bullets that you loaded caps into.
I fell in love with that cap gun and have been a revolver fan ever since. I do love ALOT of guns though..lol


P.S. most young guys seem to like the whole Glock thing.
I much Prefer a revolver or a 1911, but I am just shy of 40.

Here's mine, very accurate guns. Love 'em.

I need to get me a hand gun someday :(

Sure knives are great and all, but a good hand gun just seems like it's something I should have also :)

Maybe a .22WMA revolver?
