A Few from Col. Jeff Cooper

“The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles.” — Jeff Cooper

“A smart man only believes half of what he hears, a wise man knows which half.”
― Jeff Cooper

“There ain’t many troubles that a man caint fix
With seven hundred dollars and a thirty ought six.
”
― Jeff Cooper

“Man fights with his mind. His hands and his weapons are simply extensions of his will, and one of the fallacies of our era is the notion that equipment is the equivalent of force.”
― Jeff Cooper

“If you are justified in shooting you are justified in killing, in all but a few quite obvious circumstances. Don’t try to be fancy. Shoot for the center of mass. The world is full of decent people. Criminals we can do without.”
― Jeff Cooper

Actually could have spent several HOURS putting this together – here’s enough to give you the general idea . . . Don’t know who Jeff Cooper was??? Look around on the web – and while you are doing that check out Clint Smith . . .

Jeff Cooper was a national treasure – then he died . . . Clint Smith is a national treasure – if you ever get a chance to go to Thunder Ranch for a class – don’t pass the opportunity up . . .

My Blushing Bride Fell in Love – and I Laughed – NOT to her Face . . .

When we went and poked holes in paper the other day – she spied this . . .

Hi Polish Stainless CZ75B with purple grips – She had seen it multiple times and never paid any attention to it and then one of the guys stuck the purple grips on it . . .

She’s like – Oh My! – Can I See IT? – Can I handle/fondle IT? – She looked at me and said IT’S talking to me! ( I’m glad it happened to her – now maybe she will stop giving me a hard time – right . . . ) – IT wants to come live at our house etc. etc. She finally understands that these poor guns ALL need a good – loving – caring – nurturing home . . . I had to laugh – BUT NOT to her face – I AM NOT suicidal . . . I told her that it sure looked good AND she made it look even better – Come on folks – I was not going to discourage her – I am an enabler – If YOU can’t decide which gun?? – Without any hesitation whatsoever I will tell you – Buy Them Both!!

She is really pleased with herself – especially when she got to doing some research and found out CZ stopped producing the ” Hi Polish ” in 2019 – whatever is left out there in the wilds is it.

I think I may have another “guest” review here in the next few days – LMAO!

Smyth Busters: Dropping a 1911 Slide on an Empty Chamber

From Brownells – Good Stuff . . . The link well take you to their YouTube channel – If you want to check out Brownells web site – click here . . .

I don’t drop the slide on 1911’s on an empty chamber – the mass of the cartridge ( especially with a 45 ) slows the slide down enough so it minimizes the chance of accelerated wear – I kinda go with the Bill Wilson and Ken Hackathorn school of thought – never do it – so I don’t . . .
