Except the lever, the Garand and the AK don't qualify, although I'll let the Sig pass, lol.

I wish I had the space to reload, would make life a little cheaper, lol.

Nice collection, btw. The bottom Springfield 1911 is awesome! Would make a great duty gun!

Thanks bigearl and mrray13 for the kind words. Just found out my car was built this past week and should be here early next week so hobby will be on hold for a little while.

Here in Oklahoma horses are still measured in hands. That one would be 19 hands high. He looks like a Percheron.

Am I close?

Model (toy) trains. I've been fasinated with them since my folks gave me my first train set for Christmas in 1969.

Most of my hobbies include wheels or at least an engine.
Here's a couple.


Just sold this one last month.
Just started on this one on Wed.

Very cool. I've always wanted a classic wood boat, but I know that I couldn't/wouldn't take the time for proper maintenance.

Nice work.

There is not really much more I want to do to my Camaro, so I'm cool with spending $ on the slot cars. Plus it's really fun.
I have the sudden urge to take the ABM out for a rip with 2112 at warp volume. Nice ride.
