Firearm information for the enthusiast
12/03/2023 – I was taking pictures of this Redhawk 4″ Ruger Redhawk, and I got to wondering who specifically has inputs into the final timeless appearance of a firearm. I suppose it could be the lead designer, or generically a design team, but someone has to commit the form as […]
11/26/2023 – Some day I will take the time to write about the Browning family, particularly those involved in gun making. Yes, they were generations of famous gun designers and gun makers, but they also were philanthropists, deeply involve in serving others out of faith, but also out of a […]
Browning’s Buck Mark Vision LeverLite 11/25/2023 – The Browning Buck Mark Vision LeverLite is the brainchild of A. Fitz-Fitz, Browning’s King of Brand Positioning, Ideal Customer Profiler and Lunchroom Monitor Spec 2. Fitz-Fitz told us, “Yeah, Ruger thinks they are big stuff and all since they acquired Marlin, but they […]
11/19/2023 – Seems like it takes longer, each year, to change over from landscaping to snow removal. Since both coop space in the garage, the lawn shed is the buffer for rotation. Now I just resign myself to pulling everything out that needs to be and replacing it with not […]
A picture of bacon, sizzling in a frying pan was planned… but I ate it… and I do not have any more to photograph. Which is my point. Food shopping is a once each month event, because it is a 30 mile round trip to the store and because I […]

11/05/2023 – Ah yes, my kingdom awaits me. The price to pay for living in the woods. I see a backpack leaf blower, and mounting the snow blower on the tractor, in my very near future. I would live nowhere else. So I am going to sit here in my […]
10/30/2023 – Some time ago, we sent our truck down to Texas, and family, where it would be the most useful. There it has remained, well maintained and in valued service, until this week ,when an offer was made for its return. I love that truck. We bought it […]
10/29/2023 – How would you define fun, Joe? That is tough, because fun comes in so many forms, and what is fun to one person may not be for another. Take losing the tractor assigned garage door remote as an example of fun. I moved the little buttoned bugger from […]
10/22/2023 – Well, we moved Real Guns, in its entirety, to a new service with new dedicated servers. One big 267 gigabyte tarball that went from an Intel/CentOS 7 platform to more storage and processing power AMD/ AlmaLinux 9 platform… all shiny and new. CenOS 7 ended its development life […]
