Good answer. Somebody on here or another forum made a self standing brass catcher. As I recall it looked pretty light and portable. I will probably make one for myself eventually. Even though I shoot at home, it would be nice to have all my brass in one place when I finish up.

Holy cow are you in for a ride!!! You age going to be smiling like a little boy at Christmas for a good while. Unfortunately I do have some bad news for you. The 1911 is not a solitary gun. It has a tendency to run in packs. You may as well start saving your money for the next one. I bought a...

Good for you guys. Great guns!

Uncle Joe suggested a double barrel. Uncle Big Dog suggests a Saiga with a 15 round mag or 30 round drum. :D

I was going to rent a houseboat a couple of years ago and the rental price was rediculous! So I checked on slip fees for a houseboat the size I would want and it was less than 1/2 of a 1 week rental. Using my twisted logic, I thought I am just going to buy an old houseboat and fix it up. Then...

Gas powered 318 V8. At idle it sounds like Harley saying potato potato potato. She no speed demon but sure is a lot of fun. We have a 19' deck boat for going fast.

That is some funny business right there.

That is a terrible story. I wish you were a little closer. I would correct that terrible injustice.

My best buddy is a County Sheriff's Deputy and a lifelong Democrat with a capitol D. He has voted Democrat in every election since he turned 18. The day that Obama was elected the first time, my buddy called me and begged me to go get my lifetime permit. His words to me were, "There have never...

That sunset view is from my slip, which is across from the gas pumps. I sit topside with a beverage and watch people try to get to the gas pumps. Makes for great entertainment without even moving the boat. :D

That is the ring of success.

Vert, that chair appears to have been completely weinerated. I install a lot of fences for the weiner dogs. Next to the various retrievers and pit bulls, my third most common dog I work with it are Dachshunds. Great dogs and great explorers, which I love because dogs that run away are the ones...

You are correct. It has a 318 gas powered V8 in it. Many of the Gibsons have two 318 engines because they are considered river boats where if your motor fails you are in big trouble. I did not want two motors to work on so I wanted the single engine model. With the single engine model, I added...

Here is a little inside info on my "secret" blue cat spot. Straight south of our lake about an hour is the Ohio River. There is a warm water discharge very close to a casino that pumps warm water into the river year round below the surface. Not a lot of people know about it. I can go there and...

I have noodled before (insert joke here) but no. I try to catch whatever I suspect they are eating. For blue cats I prefer to use a casting net and catch shad. Then cut shad according to the size. Big shad gets cut into 3rds with head discarded. Little shad get used whole. With blues I use a...

Thanks for the compliment on the boat. It is a labor of love for sure.

Largemouth bass and a blue catfish. Other than guns, I have a fairly serious catfishing obsession.

Fat fishermen catch fat fish. That is my theory anyway. ;D Can you believe I was a scrawny sickly baby? Dad said I bought the beanstalk seeds and ate them on the way home in the 3rd grade. :o

Some of you know about my other project, a 1973 Gibson houseboat. Since it is freezing cold outside and I am missing the lake, I thought I would finally post a few pics of the boat and other fruits of my labor.

They are all pretty young looking now that you mention it.
