There comes a time to quit everything

and it is my time to quit posting pics of my sixguns. I have about 20 more fine Smith and Colt DA sixguns from 1900 to 1975, plus a slew of SA and autopistols. But enough is enough, for now at least.

Rifles always have been my favorite firearm and I have quit a number as well, but these darn sixguns just seem to accumulate over the years. It is lifetime of haunting pawnshops and gunshops looking for fine vintage firearms at a bargain price and then paying them out.

When I was a teen and young man, these kinds of firearms were just old cheap guns we kids could afford. Today they seem to be vintage and collecters items. Time marches on!

I have acquired very few firarms in the past few years and now concentrate on enjoying what I have and reloading for the the old fashion way. I just got through depriming and repriming a bunch of 38 Special brass on a Belding and Mull Model 28 Improved reloading tool. Fun little gizmo that does a bang up job. I also load 38 Special, 45 ACP, 45 Colt, 30-06 and 30-40 Krag with Lyman and Ideal tong tools. I am sooooo old school these days.
