My first shotguns had paper shells. When they came out with plastic shells, I thought technology in the world had come to a peak.

It literally could with the right hard cast bullets. I shoot the 300 grain soft points at 1850 fps, plenty for hogs. 🙂

Looked up your 45-70. That’s a beautiful lever action. Please don’t anyone ever think that I am any kind of expert. I know what I know but am always open to correction and still have a lot of room to learn. I would say that Marlin could stop an elephant. Lol

Good luck verifying that on MSNBC for the Breitbart haters, lol.

Both of you list rifles as your favs. Although I have a Ruger mini-14 Ranch and an older Remington pump .22, I’m a handgun lover, especially wheel guns, even though I have several semi-autos.

Marlin 1895 45-70, limited use but is a great hog gun.

Not going to predict an election. I will point out a couple of things from my perspective to keep a watch on. The current job market is basically a ‘no hire/no fire” market. Good if you’re employed. Bad if you’re a young grad looking for a job. Young grads tend to vote Democrat, and will also be faced with student loan forced payments at a time when they’re unemployed. GDP is greatly affected by the import/export ratio. Many companies stocked up on inventory before the tariffs went into effect, so the GDP was negatively affected. The numbers now reflect a massive drop in imports vs. exports that won’t continue as existing supplies run out. So, GDP will drop. You also will probably still have the healthcare issue that Democrats will continue to make an election issue. They will do nothing to solve the problem. It would be one less thing to run on, and the Republicans are down to a 213-208 advantage I believe after the CA Reps death earlier this week. Not enough of a margin to pass anything on their own. Still…the numbers are very good. Hopefully, folks are invested in their 401k’s, or other investment vehicles.

😂🤣

that's a tough one, but probably one of my Tikka .270s. or maybe the AR-10 that I spent way too much money building

And once the Big Beautiful Bill is fully in place, come the spring or early summer, the economy will be in massive overdrive. This is why I'm not worried about the midterms.

I can say with 100% certitude that if she was killed by an illegal alien you would not hear a word about it from the left!

Now that we’ve gotten past our first gun, I’ll ask you and everyone else what’s their favorite gun. It’s hard, I know, because we like them all, but there is still a favorite. Mine is my S&W 327 TRR8 Performance Center. I’ll pass it in to my son when I leave…..and the rest.

In a move that has sent shockwaves through global financial markets, the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta drastically revised its GDPNow tracker for the fourth quarter of 2025. On January 8, 2026, the estimate for real GDP growth was effectively doubled, jumping from a projected 2.7% to a staggering 5.4%. This revision marks one of the most significant upward adjustments in the model's history, suggesting that the American economy is not merely avoiding a recession but is currently in the midst of a high-octane expansion that few analysts saw coming.

OMG.... They are also investigating a Facebook group titled "Human Bones and Skull Selling Group," Amazes me I can say "gun" in a comment on Facebook and get shut down, yet there is a skull selling group🤣

Are you sure you’re reading the chart you posted? Rate is 2.7% as of today. Been bouncing around this level consistently. Tariffs have basically had little effect. Somewhat surprising to many economists.
