Only one weapon accessible by me, the rest in the gun safes. Have had this weapon for 42 years and absolutely love it. Many backups, but it's my pick.

I was considering a life of crime. I was thinking about getting into the home invasion racket but I changed my mind for some reason! Actually a whole bunch of reasons.

have any of you guys ever shot at someone or pulled down on someone??
No but I wouldn't hesitate to defend my life and the life of my family if there were a home invasion. And I have the means to do so.

I have shot a Phelps in 45-70 with the 17.5" barrel in stainless. Really a nice gun. I would shoot this gun over the .454 Casull ( a Ruger black Hawk) as the single six always bites my knuckles from the recoil.
I always keep my muzzle in a safe direction. None of you got swept in the making of this pic.
Since this thread has not been poofed yet . . . thought I might join in. Ricko . . . I don't use a lot of rigs . . . just two 1911s (a beater 4-digit (6742) Colt from 1916) and this one . . . STI 4.15 Tactical with Straight 8 sights and the StreamLight. Trigger work done here locally and feedramp worked up. Release is like a glass rod at 2.75 pounds. Shoots like most AKs do at 100m. At 25m I don't even get out of bed . . . . I just let it do the job by itself.
I won't bring any long weapon out unless this thread seems to feel a need.

SBD, silent but deadly.
@ifthevamzarockin.... I have shot the .45-70 revolver... quite a handful.... I have two .45-70 rifles, love it as a hunting caliber. Cheers, RickO
I prefer tannerite or large fruit but the beans look like they might be fun.
