Hello and thanks already

Post by 06dilly »

Hi all! TomD here from Minn. Thanks to Bill FT44 for encouraging me to join after buying some items from him on the other Ruger Forum. Already received the publication, great work all on that!

Over the years I’ve managed to accumulate lots of Mark’s, all the numbers of P Series (P93 was the best) a Hawkeye and a fair number of revolvers. Like many, I did not start out with a plan and now buy based on the moment. No idea where this will go but having fun in the process. Oh and yes, I’m one of those guys that bought an original Skeleton M77 back in the 90’s and now they’ve bred!

I love to take just about any gun apart and see how they work. To keep me from forgetting how they come apart and go back together, I started making a video to remind myself. That led to posting on YouTube (when I have time to edit) where I now have half a dozen or so mostly Ruger videos.

One goal is to convince one of you that I’d be a great next owner of an original RSSE, so when ready don’t hesitate to $hout out.

Thanks to all for your posts and willingness to teach those like myself with less knowledge!

Tom, glad to have you. You are not alone in accumulating a variety of Rugers.

Welcome from the U.K. A land far, far away where guns are as rare as Unicorns.

Some people sit on $.05 of knowledge like it is the treasure of Egypt. I will teach anyone $.10 worth just to prove a point...

Thanks to everyone for the great welcome! You guys are fun to watch an learn from. Yes, on both forums. :) I did not realize this was a live one until FT44 told me about it.

Retirement is still eluding me so I’m not able to hit the shows outside of Minn yet but it’s in my plans. Meanwhile just hoping the shows in Minn restart this year.

I’ve got an interesting chromed flatgate to show you guys and see what you think. Posting coming up.
