Been gone awhile.
« on: March 13, 2010, 02:29:13 AM »
Hey everyone it's been awhile since I have posted or been on the forums.I just purchased a .45lc classic carbine this week. I shot it a few times last night at 25 yards with a buddy, and it shot pretty decent considering I couldn't see the sights that well!I guess I will have to throw a 4x Burris Timberline on it like I did on my .357 handi. One thing I really like about it is the extractor, talk about big improvement. I wish my old old Ultra .223 had a extractor.....

Welcome back. I like the extractors as well, but then again the ejector has its advantage of a quicker follow up.

I thank God everyday for my loving wife and all the fond memories of hunting with my Papa from a child until now.

Please take time to take a kid hunting, it will be a life long memory and blessing for both of you!

Welcome back, and good luck with that .45LC.  As for the ejector, that is the only way I will go.  I don't own an extractor and I won't either.  I own seven Handi's all with ejectors.

What Is A Veteran?
A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.
