Note: After shooting the S&W more extensively and researching the rifle, I've learned that the rifle is not meant to be loaded through the front end of the magazine, as many lever guns allow. On this rifle, it's merely an alternative method for unloading the rifle.

Paul, Ian, Mas... and you are folks I enjoy spending my time with and always learn something. Once you have the sound and camera figured out, I think in a lot of ways, the person IS the channel. Personality trumps production. Thank you Sir!

First ever comment to you Mr Hicok45 today; enjoy our videos. On gun registration: In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, all guns are registered with the state, among other restrictions imposed. When buying a gun at an authorized dealer, there is a federal background check and state registration paperwork to fill out. We survive here with 2A rights, somewhat diminished; be glad you are in a free state.

Sir, i think I have been scammed by a troll. I had a comment to this post on this media that you wanted to talk to me privately on "Telegram." I do not do any other social media by choice.

A hunter shoots a deer and is pulling it back to his truck A farmer passes by and says, "Hey, you shot that deer on my property. That makes that deer mine." The hunter says, "No way, I tracked it, I shot it, it's mine." The farmer says, "Ok Ok...we'll settle this the old way." "The old way?" "Yes. We'll take turns kicking each other in the nuts, and the first guy who can't take it anymore loses. The winner gets the deer." The hunter thinks about this, and he says, "Ok, let's do it." The farmer says, "Ok, let me go first." He takes a big wind up and just nails the hunter right in the nuts with his big dirty farmer boots. The hunter doubles over in pain, huffing and puffing for a few minutes. He finally gets up, still panting, and says, "Ok, Ok...I'm still in...my turn." The farmer says, "Nah, you can keep the deer."

What a great wholesome video by Hickok45 today! I really enjoyed this. On a side note, As he mentions his sponsors for today's Sunday Shoot-a-Round video, like SDI, or Sonorian Desert Institute, he suggested someone taking classes could become a gun designer in the likes of John M. Browning. 😅 Yeah, right! Ain't no one can be as talented and gifted as that man was. J.M.B. was a prodigy and living legend, leaving behind a lifetime legacy even Browning wasn't aware of past his death. Eugene Stoner would be next in line for similar accomplishments. Perhaps there is going to be a new bud sprouting into glory of firearms innovation for the distant future, but most individuals will not make it that far.

50 years ago, you could buy a gun if you had the money. The only paperwork was your sales receipt. But, if you used that gun in a crime, you were facing a prison term or even a death sentence. Fast forward 50 years and law-abiding citizens face prosecution and criminals go free. It's no good. 🤠🧐
