Re: Why carry a pocket knife?

I don't ever remember going to school without a pocket knife. There was some mumbly peg to play and I recall going into the boys room to shave off some peach fuzz in my senior year. I used my Tested 47 to remove a lot of coon penis bones during my coon hunting days.

Re: Guns & Gun Related Stuff

Qualified annually with +P ammo in my mod 60 for 2 decades. Sucker would get so hot you couldn't touch it but no damage. Isn't a model 60 a 357 mag? Not this one. It is clearly marked as a 38. I suspect there is a 357mag version. This one was made from 1969 to, or thru, 1972 according to a book I f...

Re: Guns & Gun Related Stuff

Thanks guys. I appreciate the kind words. I think it is a neat little carry-type pistol. I'll load it up with some wadcutters for a safer round. I'll likely rotate it with my Sig P938 for daily carry. :D
