No love for rifles

View attachment 776331 To look upon and to hold a rifle and appreciate the engineering genius that went into the design of every part, to appreciate the craftsmanship of the artisans who fit together the steel and wood is to appreciate the very mind of God who created man. The story of creation, written in wood and steel. The beauty of the grain of the wood. Cut from a tree that got just enough moisture to grow dense and strong. That suffered just enough to give the wood sublime character without compromising strength. The steel, skillfully blended and forged, with just the right amount of carbon and nickel, more art than science. To slide back the bolt, like two panes of buttered glass passing across each other, or a silk scarf flowing across the smooth skin of the woman you love. The precise fit as the bolt closes over the cartridge. How it flows to the shoulder, the sights positioned precisely before the eye as it settles comfortably into the pocket. The trigger breaking like a glass rod with pressure that hardly had the weight of thought. The satisfying thunk in the distance, as the bullet finds its mark. What ecstasy!
You sir, have my most profound sorrow.


very nice set triggers

Nailed it!
 
No. Never.
Even posting this picture makes me excited.......

The absolute safest bet is a high capacity rifle! When **** hits the fan or Hillary is elected, a safe full of rifles is what I want. Just to be dead honest, I have one handgun right now and it is my daily carry.
 
I say we start him off with a 9mm carbine like my Sterling and then move to a .357 lever gun.

Then work our way up to a straight pull Swiss K31 and finish off with a Garand.

He'll be putty in our hands after that and wonder why he ever started this thread in the first place...
