    The thing that an old warhorse has that few black rifles has is "Soul". You pick it up and it has a certain heft, something that says: "I have a story to tell".
    If they could only talk think of the story they would have.
    I picked up a CMP Garand in a trade and it has the same appeal to me that an old Panhead has.
    I really enjoyed the look on my Dads face when I handed it to him, he had not held one since September 1945.
    He said it was just as heavy as he remembered.
    The most important thing to be learned from those who demand "Equality For All" is that all are not equal...

    The soul of a rifle is what makes me love it, all the cool gadgets and toys never earn my heart. The soul in a steel and wood rifle can't be touched by a tacti-cool whizbang gun, as cool as they may look.


    This one always makes me smile
