Well, I was thinking, and sometimes that can be dangerous in itself.
But if I'm gonna hang with you folks, I need to start posting something.
So here's my 1st attempt. These aren't overly special, in the grand scheme of the forum.
But they are,to me like my right arm, or one of my kids or an old dog.
If I had a Ben Franklin for every mile I've toted these 2, or for every whitetail that skeleton has dropped in 1 shot, I'd be a wealthy individual.
I bought both these guns new, the skeleton 3006 the same year my daughter was born and she is going on 32, now.
And the single six not long after that.
The skeleton is nicknamed "Ole ugly" in the social circle I hang with.
I own a lot of Rugers.
Mostly stainless, and mostly M77 mk2s and Single action Revolvers.
And quite a few other brands.
But of all the guns I own, these 2 are the workhorses that I grab everytime I hit the Georgia woods,swamps, and powerlines.
They ain't exactly pretty, but I love em.

Looking forward to the photos! The tutorial on how to post the pics is a sticky down in the "office " section.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, otherwise we would all be chasing the same things!!

Looks like I might have figured out posting pics.
Now if only I could figure out how to be a photographer.
Yes they are dirty and well used.
But both have no doubt paid for themselves thru enjoyment of introducing young ones to shooting and hunting. And bringing home the trophy buck, and tree rats.
As I said earlier in the post, I own many Rugers, some are safe queens, some I shoot, some I just enjoying knowing that i own. But these 2 are in the truck every Georgia deer season,all season long.

And just in case your wondering, I tend to be hard on anvils.

Your firearms, "Ole Ugly" and the Single Six, may not be the prettiest, but they hold immeasurable value to you. As you venture into the Georgia wilderness, they stand as trusted workhorses, carrying the weight of countless memories and delivering unmatched reliability. Embrace their unique character and cherish the moments they bring, for they are more than mere guns—they are irreplaceable companions on your journey.
