"Frontier Issued"

[Battue]

It is all good and I understand how quotes can be retrieved. However, I have seen the same circumstance cause a difficult situation on other forums. We have etiquette that we abide by in the field and while handling firearms. There is also an internet etiquette that says adding additional words to another’s post, is frowned upon. I also understand it is often used for humorous purposes when the individuals are familiar with each other. As mentioned, I know you meant no offense. However, I wouldn’t do the same to you, especially knowing I’m the new guy here.

Apologies not required, however appreciated.

An interesting thread (thanks, Craig). You can't go wrong if you acquire what you love (and keep it). There are folks in the next generation that have interests in guns from the past. Just not many. So Milton's question posed by a younger acquaintance of his needs a thoughtful answer. I wonder how well I'd do answering that?

I try explaining to them how much labor goes into building a good quality sxs .Especially back then .
I think its normally a waste of energy , you have to have a love for these old guns to understand their value .
