Hey, GMB, nice assortment you got there. My favorite outdoor carry is a ,45 3-screw Ruger BH with handloads. Otherwise it's the TVM flint pistol. Thing about the TVM is that if the target is a ways off, it's accurate enough to punch a hole in it; if it's up close, it'll incinerate it.

NWTF, I like the PC laser sight. I would guess it uses a small whale oil lamp for a light source Big Grin.

You noticed that did you?... Big Grin

I love my HC stuff but in the real world to protect myself and my family from the nut jobs that are out there I want to have what it takes to stop them.

I have carried my .50 cal. Great Plains Pistol when I hunt w/ my Great Plains Rifle. I also have a belt knife or a hawk. I crossed paths with some creepy individuals last year, so I have resolved to carry my 1858 Remington revolver instead of the GPP. +C+

The state of Idaho just clarified their rule to an archery hunter...it sounds very reasonable to me. I'm gonna butcher what they said by paraphrasing...something like: Feel free to carry a handgun while archery hunting. Just don't shoot game with your handgun that you are supposed to be shooting with arrows.

Pre 1898.......

Its also perfectly legal to have a shoulder stock for a 1860 Army, now if you have a conversion cylinder in the gun firing fixed ammunition, you just might, perhaps, not a lawyer; be guilty of building a short barreled rifle without having filed the right form and paid for your 200 buck tax stamp..........

Now Im not going to ask the ATF for an opinion as they would most likely muck it up and rule that conversion cylinders were illegal or something of the sort, all without any actual laws to back them up. We are talking about the folks that ruled that a shoestring was a machinegun in one of their opinions.....
