Hard Won Cowboy Wisdom

Post by ESquared » Tue Feb 19, 2019 10:32 am

I'm a member of a 1911 Owner's Forum, which has a completely different set of rules than those in place here, but it has its entertainment value.

Such as, I recently came across a couple of posts under the heading of "Hard Won Cowboy Wisdom," which got me to looking.

You all may already know about this, but it seems like a lot of what this guy writes about would fit right in here (WAY more so than "over there," if you catch my drift...).
