"Honey, I really need a rifle to go hunting with Hugh at his lease." A very nicely-refinished Stg58-based FAL is the result. And here I thought my husband was the only guy who went deer hunting with an FAL!
(Me, I just use my Ruger M-77 bolt action in .308 with a little 4x Leupold. Works great and it weighs a whole lot less. I once took my Lee Enfield No. 4 just for grins, but didn't see a thing and boy was it heavy to tote that thing around the woods. So back to the Ruger.)

At a Gun show in Kalispell Montana, the late Elmer Keith was asked by a wannabe, who was considering getting a personal carry pistol, which would be best a 357 Mag or a 44 Special. "44 Special", was Elmer's quick reply, the wannabe said " Why" and Elmer replied " Because they don't make a 54".
