eliseo,
Welcome to TFF! Hadn't seen you around before so I thought I'd say hello. Take a look around...watch out for the wackos...oh, wait...is that me...I dunno!

Anyway, make yourself at home. Lots to do and see here!

Smokin Guns · 05-21-2003, 07:31 PM

...talkin' to yerself again...Law'd a'mercy...

...Welcome elisio!...

eliseo · 05-22-2003, 11:12 AM

hi guys, i was just wandering around the 'net and since the someone left the door open... i usually stick close the the rimfire areas, but since i do own a few centerfires - maybe this will get me off my butt and out to shoot the 308 or at least the 223.
thanks for the welcome

inplanotx · 05-22-2003, 03:59 PM

Yup, a Big Texas HOWDY to you eliseo. Welcome to the forum. Glad ya stopped by to say hello. Watch out for Boomer, we usually keep him tied to the last stall in the Pumphouse, but every once in a while he unties the knots and bites Bob's worm eatin dawg. Hope to see lots of y'all around here.

Smokin Guns · 05-22-2003, 07:59 PM

eliseo...bring em out...some of us will try ta match up with ya!...

...some of em is still around and some of em is swapped out fer others...

eliseo · 05-22-2003, 08:11 PM

Geez Smokin Guns ain't just a name huh? I'd have to borrow a few guns from friends to come halfway close. I've never even held a thompson (unless suzie counts).

well you got me beat, you sure got big'uns.

eliseo · 05-22-2003, 08:14 PM

I just had to take another look at that picture. i've got a couple of 44's, a 300, a 308, a 30-06, a couple of 223's, a few 22's and a 17. you got a full house.

once again - wow!

eliseo · 05-22-2003, 08:17 PM

is that a 1917 i see in there? i've got one that's been sporterized, has a unertl scope on is longer than my ... well anyway - i haven't shot a round through it yet, may have to do that this weekend. usually go out to the range with my 22's. maybe bring some big noise along this time.

z537z · 05-22-2003, 08:24 PM

What we see here is another case of guns going nearly unused when Z's motorcycle, tuition and gun fund is in bad need of firearms for the less fortunate.

And even if ol SG takes em out every couple weeks I'd still have him beat, I go shootin a couple times a week at least.

Or maybe he uses them constantly but I still deserve a couple! Now that I'm out a motorcycle and workin my butt of for tuition I don't have, I'd say some of you gun nuts could really help me out here!

I use the term "gun nut" in the nicest way

.

I mean come on, I'm already seriously contemplating whether or not it's worth getting yelled at to shoot the nailguns at work at the squirrels in the homeowner's yard....

Send help

Smokin Guns · 05-22-2003, 08:27 PM

That's a 1917 Eddystone...Let's shoot em and compare results...Smokin guns is just about havin' fun shootin'...don't matter how many ya got...some a'these feller's has way more than SG...Kind of a Gunner's rule kind'a thang!...

eliseo · 05-22-2003, 08:59 PM

i don't have all my guns recorded, let alone photographed. worse than that, i have a habit of leaving them with close friends and family, it seems. here's the ones i have (just) photographed.
i did them in sections, so the upload wouldn't take forever.

this is my current craze - 10/22's

eliseo · 05-22-2003, 09:00 PM

then i have what i thought was going to be my 'thing'

my savage 300 is at a friends.

eliseo · 05-22-2003, 09:02 PM

this was a past 'thing', i'm not quite sure why

eliseo · 05-22-2003, 09:04 PM

and of course, you gotta own a 223 or two. i've got a good friend into 'black guns' thank god, so i don't have to own any - he's got more than he can shoot.

eliseo · 05-22-2003, 09:11 PM

and this last shot - the 'dumb' guns that everyone owns, but is afraid to admit to.

you've made me think about gudn that i have stashed away at different places, again, i don't know why.

1 mossberg, 1 winchester 12ga shotgun - at my brother's
1 92f beretta - same place
1 savage 300 - friend's
1 357mag - nephew's
old ruger mark I pistol - can't remember
1 remington 597 - different brother's house

god, this is scary - i think i'm on the way to gun nut

but ya still got me beat sg - damn, a thompson - you just had to show me that, huh?

Smokin Guns · 05-22-2003, 09:26 PM

Ya'll is an official "Gunnut" WELCOME!!!!...is that a Tec .22 and a Raven .25...?...

eliseo · 05-22-2003, 10:06 PM

worse, it's a tec22 and a jennings 22 ear-wax remover. also known as a nose hair puller. used to backpack desert a lot a few years back (he says as he leans back and scratches his beard), quite a few years back. used to carry a k-bar on my belt, and that jeenings in my pack where i could reach it with my right hand. wasn't much good at ten feet, but if you got real close and stuck it in somebody's ear, it sure would clean the earwax out.

luckily it was the seventies and eighties, so most everybody you ran into in the desert was too stoned to bother you.

pickenup · 05-23-2003, 12:22 AM

Yup, welcome to the "nut" house.

z537z · 05-23-2003, 04:30 PM

What is that thing with teh 15 foot long scope on it above the Savage?

And what scope is that?

Some kinda astronomy/long range hunting rifle.

eliseo · 05-23-2003, 04:53 PM

the black gun is a remington 700pss. the gun above it is a winchester model 1917, with some eddystone parts. it was 'sporterized' in the 50's, near as i can tell from the history. i was told that's a unertl scope on it, but i'll be damned if i can find any markings. the barrel is 85 years old - the guy i bought it from says it's extremely accurate. i haven't shot it yet, even though i've had it for a year. i bought the 700 planning to do some highpower shoots, ran across the 1917 and bought it too. shot the 308 for a while, but it's a pain finding someone who wants to drive to a range where you can shoot more than 200 yards. so then i re-discovered rimfires (i've owned a 10/22 since the 80's) and got kinda side-tracked.
i've decided that this weekend is going to be big-bore time. its about time i put a few rounds through 'grampa-gun'.

z537z · 05-23-2003, 06:30 PM

Thanks Eliseo.

That Rem is a great lookin gun, but would be even nicer in a AICS stock. Great deer hunting rifle.

Thanks again, that's one wierd lookin, long gun.
