Me too--
- Eyes like an eagle, talons like a spring steel trap- Der Alder ist gelandet, Ja!! I love German and Austrian firearms, both military and civilian/sporting versions. I have seen several fine drillings (drei- three auf deutsch- three barreled- but they all are that goofy 16 gauge that they seem to like over there in Europe-the workmanship, fit and fitting- look at all the great American gunmakers and engravers from Germany that settled here- : Pachmayr, Wunderlich, Fugger, Schellhammer, Wundhammer, Apfel, AH Fox (Fuchs auf deutsch) he didn't build his "Filly factory' in Germantown sector just for 'laughs"--Ya- das ist gut!!!

Every morning-
Schnapps is waaaay better for curing 'morning mouth' that Lavoris or Scope. Hoping to find a Warsteiner Brau flavored toothpaste, but no luck so far.
Tonight I am serving roast goose mit sauerkraut-kugel- brot- und Leibfraumilch-- and for the post-prandial, after the fish and goose soirre ( a friend is bringing smoked salmon and pickled herring -lukefist- das ist GUT--we'll have "open bar on the schnapps mit sprtizen-- I won big time on the World serious- had the games to go 7 (Yup) and the Cards to win it all (yup again) so we are having a wild game fest at my humble abode tonight-- The tomorrow, we can all commiserate with the detroit "Pussy-kats' as then get their tails tucked between their kneecaps in Denver-- c'est la Vie!! |

Guten Tag, Herr Oberst!
[quote=Bruce Day;29718]There are other examples of folk art carving on buttstocks, done with varying degrees of success. This is likethe Germanic Scheutzen ( sp?) style. Ja- schuetzen Oberst Day- ist das korrekte Wort fur 'shooting' in der Deutschen Sprache gerade als groBem fettem pickelkopf beschreibt ein von Herrn W.S's- Komodienskizzen. Ich bein auf Deutsch ein wenig flieBend und Spanisch-- aber es ist haufig-- nutzlich!!

Yep. But we still see things like that today with laser engraved deer, hogs, dogs, girlfriends, etc. on buttstocks.
More Parkers are damaged by people messing with them than from any other cause. |
