in my little world, there is no such thing as a safe queen. guns were meant to be fired.

I wouldn't want to have nothing else, but it doesn't hurt to have one or two presiding over the safe. I have a Romanian Instructie Mosin Nagant 91/30 that I test-fired and put away; I pull it out now and then, fondle it and try to decipher the scars on it. there's a history there that I wish I could read more closely.

Safe Queen...... Some say they are made to be fired. Some like to just look at them. So, lets split hairs. Get a snap cap in that cal and fire it off the back porch then sit back in your recliner and enjoy. |
