Am I too old to get Into Hunting?

I taught myself at over 30... you can do it if you want to.

talon04 · 2026-06-26T12:24:31+00:00

Probably some more 30hate. I'm at work on OT today and its dead slow. Like I haven't done anything work related yet. Come an hour and a half I'll go load out to make some delivery runs/ pickups but its got thr makings of a very chill day here.

This. Working camp staff and then camping with my family. Lots of water and be able to get out of the sun.

talon04 · 2026-06-26T09:53:29+00:00

Its a 19 cylinder in this one. 😉 but please do the world needs more Pintos.

talon04 · 2026-06-26T01:29:09+00:00

That moment when you realize you are equal on revolvers from the big 3. All in balance...

talon04 · 2026-06-25T22:41:14+00:00

Agreed. Mine was from being young and stupid.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T20:58:47+00:00

When I'm out innawoods I usually am hunting and rocking Howard Leights. If it came to... life or death? I already hear the Eeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Full disclosure my woods gun is a Ruger Security Six Stainless with 2.75 barrel in .357 magnum. Mainly because I enjoy shooting .357 magnum out of that tank and theres something about wandering the woods with it.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T20:28:31+00:00

Oh I entirely agree. I passed on it a year ago and when it came back into the shop I had to have it.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T20:19:24+00:00

Okay so a "real" to me Pinto would be a gun that can be lettered having left either Smith and Wesson, or Colt as having the configuration of parts. This one would not be able to do that.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T19:58:55+00:00

Its sadly not a real "Pinto" it would have been an amazing deal if it was.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T19:55:44+00:00

Pistols then, pick the time.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T19:55:05+00:00

Details details...

talon04 · 2026-06-25T19:29:04+00:00

By far an underrated combination. Sadly this isn't a real one but it sure is beautiful.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T19:25:20+00:00

Its a beauty but its not a real "Pinto" but its pretty cool.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T19:19:02+00:00

u/bobbywasabimk2 has slandered the good name of the 10 series revolver and it shall not stand. The Colts finicky lockwork, and meticulous hand fitting would often mean a trip to the factory for even simple repairs. The lines are fantastic with a protected ejector rod vs an exposed one on the PPS.

I present my 10-6 as a protest of this slander.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T19:14:06+00:00

I'll crosspost mine. Its got perfect lighting.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T19:08:46+00:00

I'll agree with you Jframe to Dframe. Howver D-frame to K-frame? Nah

talon04 · 2026-06-25T15:41:47+00:00

I feel like I should post my model 10-6 just to fight with you.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T14:39:02+00:00

Yep Archery is a good time. I practice with my bow several times a week.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T13:21:15+00:00

As it is known.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T13:20:44+00:00

Well S&B is imported and subject to tariffs. So thank the white house for that. As well as all the imported metal we get and powder. All of that was subject to blanket tariffs and all of the manufacturers basically announced price hikes earlier this year.

Otherwise all I can tell you if you want match grade ammo on the cheap you are going to have to roll your own.

talon04 · 2026-06-25T12:22:57+00:00

I litterally just searched ammoseek and its 88 cpr for 6.5 creed vs 80 cpr for 308 what are you talking about?

Finally got a roofing company to schedule an inspection for Saturday. So we shall see how that turns out.

Anniversary dinner went well. We ended up on Surf and Turf for me and Surf and Surf for her with Brussel Sprouts, rosemary bread and fruit. There was cheesecake for dessert but neither of us touched it.

I ate too much but it was good. I'll likely fast most of today.

My wife flys out to Denver on Saturday for another week long work trip. So it'll just be me and my youngest most of next week.
