    Mr Mellring was my English teacher, he was My hunter Ed. Instructor ( we actually got that as a club in school) he liked to hunt, and we would often read hunting stories aloud in class. The girls rolled their eyes but I was in heaven. I graduated in 1995. Too bad kids don't get that these days.

    You just hit it right there, we love to interact with the gun. Levers, bolts, pumps all cause joy when the action moves and does it’s thing with all those wonderful mechanical sounds. If drawing the hammer back on a single action revolver doesn’t blow up your skirt I don’t know what will.

    I got into the firearms world (other than my military career) later in life and I have to say these two gentlemen are my favorites to watch and I have learned an awful lot. Love their style and variety/history of firearms and types of rounds and ballistics. I bought my Uberti 45lc Cattleman because of watching Hickok and understand the ballistics of my 308 hunting rifle by watching Ron S. I try to never miss what these guys have to say. True legends both of them.
