Greetings from the Great Southwest
« on: July 24, 2016, 11:03:54 PM »
Greetings and Salutations My Good Netizens

I found my way herre from the Remington and Gulch forums some time ago, and now that I pulled the pin on the
retirement grenade, I finally have enough time to regale yet another captive audience with unending babbling
historical misinformation and snake oil sales :-)

Hopefully, now  I have time to get my act together and find my colts under the piles of crap in the garage dig out my open tops from the "safe" and actually shoot the things... and perhaps post a few photos...
"Oh look, it's an out-of-focus photo of a tall skinny scarecrow shooting an 1860 ... or is it Bigfoot? "

It’s always a pleasure, Professor.  Good to see you here.  We will all benefit from your recent retirement in that you may now have more time to devote to matters of superseding importance.  My compliments and best wishes to you.
