getting another guy in!
« on: April 22, 2016, 03:41:57 PM »
After taking my revolvers out shooting, got a friend hooked, he picked up 2 1858 pietta.

We've now been shooting a couple times a week.

We noticed a third friend was feeling a tad left out.  He's in an income crunch right now so me and 2 buddies started looking around.  Then poof, cabelas puts some revolvers on sale, plus free shipping.

We split an 1851 3 ways as an early birthday for him.


It comes next wed.   I make loading stands and brass powder measures.  Another buddy is gonna donate powder and balls, and the third guy caps n lube.

We already have nip wrenches and stuff.  Nip picks..

Should brighten his day

Do you think he'll let you guys shoot the 1851?   LOL, just teasing.

Really nice of you guys to jump in together and get a friend started like that, that's what it's all about.
