Yes, that is possible, too.

I wonder if he expected both the mom and son to be home and was thrown by the fact that mom was not there.

But Columbo would want to find out whose fingerprints were on the items found in the step dad’s truck. Since there were no witnesses to the shooting and the only re-telling of the events the authorities have is the one given by the shooter. Not so open and shut as one might think.

They are called combination guns IIRC. 2 barrels, over/under. A friend had one many years ago. 22lr/.410. Made by Savage, I think.

Could be a Savage gun, but there are five other manufacturers as well.

Thanks for making me look that up. Relearning something I'd totally forgotten made it worth getting out of bed this morning!

Part of what I really like about Free Republic is that quite often, I will learn something new, or relearn something I forgot. I try to spend at least an hour or so every day.

Lampassas is a great town just up the road from me about 30 miles. I doubt Lampassas has had a murder (or Justifiable homicide) in years.

I am not sure they know what they meant.

Many places in the article show ignorance of firearms and other things.

Not just typo’s. There are too many pointers.

Could be.

Makes a handy survival gun or something to have if you can only afford one weapon.

Called "drillings" by the Euros.

German Hammer Drillings

(three barrel gun)

By Dietrich Apel

Quite a selection of patterns. Had never heard the Drillings term.

I've seen some really nice ones $20,000+.

Only one that I shot was a Savage .22WMR X .410.

Handy little "fill the pot" gun.

Exactly what my brother had. His was 22 hornet and 410 shotgun.

The 22 hornet is a very fast bullet, great for Coyotes.

But not nearly as good as the 22-250. My brother had one of those too.

He died 1-1/2 ago. Think his son has it, but not sure.

In Europe it is not always about money. They are very limited in some countries. They may only allow you one, single shot, hunting rifle.

That crap sucks.

Much better to have a variety.

No other place in the world has a 2nd amendment like ours.

The Left wants to eliminate it, not going to happen. Will be a war first. It is clear that the reason they want to confiscate weapons, is because of what they want to do when we are powerless we would kill them for.

Yes.

I just looked on Amazon ....

They have handcuffs and leg-irons that are “toys” for costume use, “toys” for kinky sex, and serious tools for restraining people.

Yes.

Here in southwest PA, it's deer, bear, turkey, grouse, bunnies and squirrels.

Though, lately, I've killed more varmints, incuding coyotes and raccoons.

My grandson has a girl friend who lives in PA. He and my daughter went there on a trip recently to meet her family.

My daughter and grandson live on East Coast.

I’ve not had much time to hunt in years. That does not mean I don’t know how or want to. Spent many years caring for sick or elderly family members.

But tonight I am doing a little reloading. I’ve reloaded since my childhood. But this is a new project, working on a special hand gun load. Just about tested enough to load quite a few rounds.
