Great video. I was running bear baits today and toting my 4" model 29. Us old broke northerners cant afford them fancy .41 mags like you rich Southern Gentlemen.😂 Thanks for showing us the neighborhood.
Howdy neighbor. Appreciate the video. Yea I used to help Randy and his wife work the Bear Creek Canoe Run in the summers. I've known them for years. Their home and chicken houses got blown away during the tornadoes that year over in Spruce Pine. The canoe run building there off the highway there heading to Hackleburg got damaged too but we fixed it. Down in The Dismals is a good spot to film too. Me and my momma used to live down there almost 40 years ago when I was about 3-4. But anyway yea haven't been down to Military Bridge in years. I always loved walking around exploring down that way. We have some beautiful places here. Take care Plowboy. 🐍🇺🇸 P.S. I love foxbody Mustangs too. And square body Chevy trucks. Aaaand pretty much any older classic vehicle. I bought an '87 Chevy K20 4wd truck late last fall that I've been tinkerin' with. It runs good but needs a few odd and ends done. I won't yap on about all that now tho. Talk to you later sir.
Good to hear from you . My family home in Hackleburg got damaged enough that no one has lived in it since 2011. My wife lost a brother and her childhood home out toward Easter Franklin that day. Back in the 80's, a girl I went to school with (Massey) was kin to who owned the Dismals then.
It's available from several companies, but I hand load it, too . I've done several videos on my .41 Mag Blackhawks this year...showing and shooting....discussing loads
🤔'Reminiscing' Good Ole Days of being Young! Playing in Creeks/Rivers,3/4 Wheelers,Drag Racing! I had 78 & 79 Camaro Both of them where Topend Speed Badasses!

What a great video, beautiful scenery, beautiful stories down memory lane and one gorgeous looking firearm. Thank you plowboy for this video. I also love being in the woods/forests, me and my Smith and Wesson 686 plus talo 5inch 👍🍻
Is that the bridge near Chigger Hill? I've never been to the bottom of that one. Of course I don't know when any of the bridges were built but my understanding is that in this area the term military bridge, road or trail was in reference to Andrew Jackson's trek through the area while on his way south during the War of 1812 and the battle of New Orleans. There are lots of those Veteran grave markers in our area. It's a shame most of that story has been lost to history. I enjoyed the walk and talk.
It sure is . There's a grave or two from the War of 1812 at Pounders Cemetery here on Spruce Pine Mountain, just a few hundred yards up a ridge from the Military Road.
I bought a Simply Rugged OWB (strong side) for my custom Blackhawk, but... I never considered that my belt loops on my britches are in JUST the wrong spot, forcing me to carry either further back or forward than my ideal carry position. I may have to resort to buying a Mernickle OWB high ride. I like your crossdraw holster, but I prefer to carry where my shirt drapes over it while I am in the woods (I live in UBER-liberal part of the country and don't need the citizens getting all worked up, ha!) Love your vids, they help me relax and chill after work
Split the belt loop! Meaning...put the belt through one slot of the holster, then through the belt loop of your britches, then through the forward slot in the holster. The pants belt loop is in the middle of the holster then.
@@plowboysghost Good advice, under some cirumstances. This holster has a long flap/foldover for a belt loop, more of an Old West style holster, so there's no way to split the loop. No worries for now, as I have carry setups for other pistols.
5 minutes with needle and thread, move that offending loop. Did that on all my britches for my Bianchi Dirty Harry Rig shoulder rig for a 8 3/8” Model 29. That being said, I’ve got Mernickles PS6SA for an Old Model Vaquero. Carries it high and tight, and like Plowboy says, split the loop, you’ll be delighted with it.
Man plowboy that's a beautiful area. I miss areas like that. I hate living in the Desert. Funny enough my first 4 wheeler was a mid 80s Suzuki quadsport. It was a very used and Abused 4 Wheeler. it had no brakes. the entire time I owned it. Only way to stop was down shifting or just running into something....the good old days. Kind of funny how so many of us in this Community had similar hobby and Interests. My first car was a camaro iroc-z. I bought from a junk yard when I was 15. It's was junk but really got me into always having at least 1 sports car. Had Multiple early 2000's camaros and transAms. Than it went to corvettes and exotics. Had a ferrari f430 for a while then traded that for a Lamborghini huracan. Unfortunately when i sold my company right before the Pandemic. I sold everything Except a corvette Z06 that makes just under 1000hp and runs 9s in the 1/4 mile. That z06 will probably be the one car I will have for the rest of my life.
And that's why we love ya at 3:51 ..... Ruger 4 - 5/8 inch single action greatness ! 👍💯 That's some beautiful countryside you have and love the stories & history in it ! Did your Suzuki Quad have a 250 cc two cycle RM motorcycle engine ? Those were mean and one of the first 4 wheelers I was ever on ! Wonder we made it trough childhood .... 😁
I wish so badly Florida didn't have open carry banned. I really hope this federal lawsuit will end the open carry ban. It's ridiculous that Florida is in a group of 4 states that ban open carry (NY/IL/CA are the others). I'd love to be able to go on hikes and walks like this with my 45 colt on my hip out in the open like this. I liked this vlog style video man! You should do more of these 👍🏼
I’d be more concerned about chiggers than snakes. Looks like an awesome place to play explore as a young or old man. Nothing more fun and exciting than a creek to explore for a country boy. As far as the lucky thing goes I tell my son I burned all of mine and his up years ago so he had best not try his
I had a yellow '83 in '85 after my 350x was stolen, before I got my first (of many) '85 R. Ive had a LOT of 3 wheelers, from 84-86 Tecates to brand spanking new '86 Tri-Z, to many R's( including a ESR 310 I built), to a complete CAGIVA 200 from Trick Dick's...that I never got to ride, back in the 90's I raced flat track in the 80's. Though I have an 85 Big Red, I want a nice 225.
Why 9mm edc ? Well, because i dont have .41mag yet. Also because i dont open carry while in town. However, its coat wearing weather around here at least 6 months a year so often enough, there's a .45c blackhawk on my hip. Occasionally its a .22mag single six 🤷♂️. Looks like a nice area there. Thanks for showing us around.
Well I've never ran across a grizzly bear and I've hunted the mountains out west when I lived there and I've been back a quite a few times since I moved away but I believe that I'm probably blood kin to the grizzly that bit Jim Bridger's ass 😂😂😂 All jokes aside the 454 cassul is the biggest handgun I own but I think I'd rather have my 44 mag a gun is not worth anything if you are not comfortable with it and can shoot it well so I give the 44 the nod 41 is a great round but unless you handload it your basically dead in the water and then theirs the price when you do find them
@@Jeff-sl8xz Luckily I do load and cast for .41 Mag, but there is some truly powerful 293-gr 1500 fps/1463 ft lbs stuff available from Aria Ballistic Engineering.
@@plowboysghost really I've got a older smith probably every production of the 41 it's always been a intriguing cartridge to me as I have a old Colt New service in the 38-40 and also a model 92 Winchester it always seemed like it should have been popular more so than it was it fills a niche between the 357 and the 44 nicely I always thought I also reload but have a hard time finding certain components
Ah the cars I used to have! The only one I would like to have again is a 1972 Cutlass Supreme. Viking blue with a white vinyl top and black interior. 350 Rocket engine. I had a 1993 Mustang 5.0, 5 speed stick LX convertible but the wife didn't like it. She kind of thought of it as "The other woman". So it went to my partner who is a Mustang nut. Some day, maybe a 1969 fastback. Some day.
My momma used to have one like that. She used to race her friends on hwy 24 in Russellville and Belgreen down at the mine headings not that far from where he's at there. Plowboy probably know one of the guys she ran with Eddie Hicks. He always looked out for her she said wrenching on it. Not surprisingly he opened up and runs a body shop and mechanic shop on that same highway and area. Most of us folks around here know each other or atleast know of em or heard of em. It's not really small but not really big. Its spread out haha. Just right. Have a good one.
@@LibertyFromLead Yeah, I know who he is🍻 Small world, ain't it 🤠🍻 I've raced on 24 when it was a 2 lane on top of the hill Freemans is on now, as well as at the chicken plant .
I enjoy the History and the walk along Myself. Many interesting places around my neck of the woods too. And I walk them just the same and think on em and wonder what it must of been like in those days.
Good looking gun , and holster where did you buy your holster. I like that brown leather looks sharp, i wanna buy one (Crossdraw) for my 5" 629 smith 🇺🇸
Thought it looked kind of long for a 4 5/8 . I totally get it , it works fine with the extra 3/4 of air space as a field holster . And I get it , that you habitually rock the OC . But where I am , it's illegal to OC , so I'd trim it to open toe , flush with muzzle on a 4 3/4 .
@@plowboysghost with a white top!! Our other brother talked me into it . He drove when you rode on the bumper. I remember the game warden came down there as I was coming back up the bank
Even at 700 fps or maybe less, a 250-255 gr cast bullet from a .45 Colt single action has dropped deer....so though I want a little more velocity, it's not necessary for most anything.
@@plowboysghost I like asking you cause I've heard others say how 45 colt ain't enough for this and that, and even I know that's bs. Like you said, the 250-255 black powder load has been known to drop browns. I've been happy as a pig in mud with my flattop blackhawk. Has them fake ivory grips and looks and feels great.
You ain't kidding. Less than 10 minutes away, where I grew up, you could walk in a freshly plowed field after a rain and pick them up on top of the ground. Still could...if they'd plow it again.
Insane traffic and distracted drivers keep me off 2 wheels on the roads . I've had my pickup run into by cars while l was stationary 3 or 4 times. ( You know it's bad when it's so often you can't keep count ). Don't want to risk it on a motorcycle. Thought some more . Three times in C-10 , once in F-100 , once more can't remember which vehicle . Plus not quite a year ago , wife had her Explorer totaled that way . ( '99 Police Package , last year of the 5.0 V-8 )
So general Jackson built that bridge and rd around the time of his Indian wars. Probably built them back in the earlier 1800's on his way down to my neck of tge woods for the Seminole wars.
@@tbjtbj4786 There are a lot of towns around here that were originally settled because of the Military Road intersecting with other roads or Indian trails....like Hackleburg. It was settled because of it being on an intersection of the Hightiwn Path Indian trail, the road to Iuka, MS, and the Military Road being close by. Russellville was settled by Maj. William Russell who was with Jackson working on the same Military Road and it intersecting Gains Trace.
@@plowboysghost he came down here at least this part from my understanding on the old Spanish trail and on the Chattahoochee River. From the Scott massacre / ft. Recovery to ft Gadsden to the flowtownfight. Lot of history on the Al, Ga, and Fl. Lines

My Blackhawk in 357 is my main gun. I would take it walking in the woods. But, I bought a model 19 357mag to carry in my car.
And there is nothing wrong with a little change of scenery and history.
@@Wastelandman7000 Exactly. Thanks
What's your EDC? I'm guessing it's not a 9mm semi-auto - even if it's packing a formidable 9mm +P+ 'bear load' (😱❗)... 😉
You're looking at it , in 2024....on my belt in this video😁
So general Jackson built that bridge and rd around the time of his Indian wars.
Probably built them back in the earlier 1800's on his way down to my neck of tge woods for the Seminole wars.
@@tbjtbj4786 It was after the War of 1812. Jackson Military Road was an improvement of the run between New Orleans and Nashville.
@@plowboysghost he came here in 1818 if I remember right. Fl was still Spanish at the time.
@@tbjtbj4786 There are a lot of towns around here that were originally settled because of the Military Road intersecting with other roads or Indian trails....like Hackleburg.
It was settled because of it being on an intersection of the Hightiwn Path Indian trail, the road to Iuka, MS, and the Military Road being close by.
Russellville was settled by Maj. William Russell who was with Jackson working on the same Military Road and it intersecting Gains Trace.
@@plowboysghost he came down here at least this part from my understanding on the old Spanish trail and on the Chattahoochee River. From the Scott massacre / ft. Recovery to ft Gadsden to the flowtownfight. Lot of history on the Al, Ga, and Fl. Lines
@@tbjtbj4786 He was at Horseshoe Bend , too
👍
@@smokum7 Thank you.
You must have been a rich kid all I had was old rusted out junk because that was all I could afford..
Nope. I was spoiled by my grandmother...since I was the second grandchild and the first to live past 4 months.
Had a 82 GT maroon 4 speed.
My younger brother did, too
