I would be happy to bring my Henry wall thickness gauge and measure some barrels (without charge) but will need to know if someone is interested so I can bring everything. Send me a PM if so.

Interesting office, Mike. Can you tell us about the metal framework? I've never seen anything built quite like that.


May God bless America and those who defend her.

Stan, the "office" is a 1935 Model A axle built as a Shepards Wagon for working sheep and goats. Note the head gate on the front. A salvage from a bud's farm--twas setting for 50 years....
Drew is kind enough to help me with pictures.

Now, that's cool! I love it when stuff is repurposed like that. Farmers and ranchers are good at it!

Borderbill might share how challenging, but fun, the ZZs were

I'd love to be there for the event, but doubt that I will have any other need to travel to SE AZ at that time. However, I can witness to how challenging ZZ birds are. I've run straights on live pigeons before, but cannot recall ever doing so in Helice. You get easy birds sometimes with pigeons, seldom so with ZZs.
