Well, I probably picked the wrong firearm to debut the pictures from the new camera. Satin black bluing and matte black Cerakote®is like photography’s proverbial black cat in a coal bin… at midnight. I know, “What’s a coal bin?”. A half stop less and the Wrangler would appear as an…...

Winchester's Xpert 22 LR
My wife was a wonderful mom to her four children; our three sons and me. Quite some time ago, I got into a dispute with my heart over a workaholic life style and it, unfortunately, filed for a divorce. It was a long drawn out process that culminated with my…...
Ruger Mark IV™ 22/45™ Lite
The new site is up and I actually like it. Simple, mostly white space, it provides a nice wall to hang pictures of firearms on without distractions. I am really procrastinating with producing videos. I am just not an on air personality. I’m awkward in front of a crowd… that’s…...
Browning's SA-22 Challenge
Yesterday, the morning was spent digging up and pulling out a pear tree by its roots with the tractor’s backhoe. Deceptively large root system for a less than massive tree. Working outside feels really good, even if the result is only being muscle sore or taking a nap. Love this…...
Savage's A22 BNS-SR
1/30/2022 – OK, so I held Maine’s early winter feeble snow fall up to public ridicule and, today, revenge was swift. I had to drag my butt out there to clear 15″ of heavy snow; shovel, snow blow and… shovel some more. It’s amazing how many steps are in a…...
Ruger's Mark IV Target
11/21/2021 – Computers suck. I opened WordPress to begin a new article and was once again confronted with a blank page. Happens every week. My stupid cell phone can anticipate my words, auto correct and express emotion, but you… you stupid tin box, all you can do is hide under…...
Browning's Straight Pull T-Bolt Target 22LR
My wife and I took a day off to watch the tourist survey New England foliage and to take some pictures… of the foliage. Beautiful day, but too soon into fall for really brilliant colors. We have lived in a number of states that put color into seasons, but mostly…...
Winchester's Wildcats - Rifle and Ammunition
08/08/2021 My wife and I celebrated our fifty fourth wedding anniversary and my wife’s birthday this week. Good years, easy years and tough years. Military service and career caused temporary physical separation. Raising a family, relocating around the country… see military service and career, things always seemed in a state…...
The Ruger Mark IV Hunter V. Squirrel
07/26/2020 Six tomato plants are usually enough for my wife and immediate friends, but this year we got off to a slow start. Moving house grown seedlings to the garden had its casualties, so a restart was necessary. Of the six plants, three yielded tomatoes very quickly, two grew quickly…...
