“I also bought another gun … another elephant gun, to be exact.”

Darn, one thing I don’t have. Was hoping for a 458 or 416 for Christmas but my wife did not come through this year! On the other hand, my shoulder still smarts after a few boxes of 300 win mags this weekend, maybe she knew better!

Was hoping for a 458 or 416 ...

That .416 Rigby or W'by Mag?

I happened to attend a smallish gun show yesterday in SE Texas. It was crawling with people and they were buying. Did a little "loophole" buy myself. Lots of people crowding the pistol tables.

Well, to paraphrase Phill Graham, then senator from Texas, making a speech at an NRA convention; he stated “I have all the guns I need but I don’t have all the guns I want!” That sums up my thoughts on the subject. But, sadly, my wife has informed me that “not only do I have all the guns I need, I have all the guns I’m gonna get” LOL! She’s actually a shooter as well. But, she does keep a beady eye on the inventory in my gun safe....
