Hey All,

Nother famous line from nother famous western...

A gun is a tool, Marian; no better or no worse than any other tool: an ax, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

I expect we will see the range reports.

Anybody know the quote - no Google - scouts honor.

Hey All,

RR that was pretty easy how about this one...

"I remember when I was about twelve years old. My daddy asked me, he says, "What do you want to be when you grow up, Little Harley?" And like a damn fool, I said a cowboy. I've been making wrong moves ever since."

A really enjoyable movie starting two of the best Jimmy and Henry.

RR I hope you don't take that quote personal I never meant it that way.

Hey All,

It was from the Cheyenne Social Club Stewart and Fonda great dialogue.

That said RR hope your rifle shows up soon.

Should hear something this week as to it's whereabouts. Not worried. It's on it's way.

Just checked the Colorado dealer email again from the 29th and they said waiting on a few more shipments and expected to ship the whole thing to Canada 2nd week of August.
