The history of the Winchester Model 60 .22cal 23" barrel and no finger grooves starts in 1932/33 after WWI. It was believed that the Springfield Bolt Action would be the first choice for Marksmen, and to encourage training in the shooting sports. Winchester made 165,000 of them and marketed them in hardware catalogs as well as the Boy Scout publications including Boy's Life Magazine. After 1933 Winchester made the Model 60A Target Version with a 27" barrel, finger grooved forearm, and peep site aperture.

Saw the pix of the rifles and got mine out to have a look.

Turns out that is actually a Model 56 by Stevens.

It does have the peepsite.  The front sight was originally hooded, but got lost and was replaced.  I learned to shoot with it, and inherited it when my father passed.

It actually shoots pretty well.  But the peepsite sux for hunting.

Coffee was a lifeline this morning to calm down after panicking ?

With cold temperatures came the layering in clothes, and one unfortunate glance in the mirror under wrong angle made me look like all the curves and bumps in the chest area were  gone. I did not expect that feeling to be so strong and sudden. 

How do YOU survive winter????

I'm not sure, this is my first winter after coming out but I had the same exact experience this morning when taking the dog for her long morning walk. Oof.  I made sure when I got ready for work to pick out some nice clothes that were more form flatte ring and actually did my makeup today. Instantly made me feel better.  Now I just need this coat to keep warm and look feminine:

@KymmieL be careful what you ask for.  By tomorrow’s post there could be a foot of snow on here and a full on blizzard.

 

@Mmindy I am so far removed from the royals if you called me that the Beefeaters would would find me and throw in the Tower of London as an impersonator.  At least they don’t behead then draw and quarter any more.

Guess I’m not built right.  Based on their measurements guide.  To get it big enough in one place, it’s way too big in another.  And the style while pretty seems a bit young for me.

 

Hey @KymmieLi think it’s snowing harder!

 

Lady Willow. (Ok last time for that)

@Jandithat's a excellent Target Rifle, you're correct about peep sites not being good for hunting. It also looks like there's a magazine feed under the bolt action. The rifles from this era are accurate and the fixed sights are rugged to hold up to young shooters.

 

@ElizabethStarI was also raised to call ladies MsFirstName and finding out that Lady Willow is from the House of The Bruce, MsWillow is fitting.

 

@Willow you are to modest.

 

Good evening everyone,

Now that would be pretty normal here.  maybe not all that appropriate though, kinda of a throwback to the old south.  Oh and the productivity measurement of grocery cashiers isn’t how fast they scan but how friendly and talkative they are .

 

so if you are coming here from the north, especially the north east where everyone expects fast fast fast, be prepared for slow, slow, slow.

Dang… I'm looking at that now myself.

Wonder if I can come up with the funds?

This isn't the north woods, but I do like to be warm.

Ok...I love that coat too.

I don't think I'll even look at the link.  I'm trying to save up for an electrolysis package.  Besides, it was 75 degrees here this morning.  Although, I am noticing that women's clothes are generally thinner, so I need more of them.

Good morning everyone 

 

Not a great night, I was awake a lot with heartburn.  Then the canine alarm went off early.

 

not as cold this morning and possible 70 by the weekend.  Warmer temperatures good, variations not so good.

 

Ok, @KymmieLyou’re off the hook.  We aren’t buried in snow here at TGP land.

 

not much happening here.  My wife is trying to build inventory.  A local shop wants to display and sell her things.  She took a few things she had made just to show the couple that owns it and they asked her.  Yesterday she as working on something completely new.  You embroider some applicae on a base material then cork over that and uncover the the applicae.  It becomes the outside of a purse.

 

Coffee was good, just not exactly what my heartburn needed.

 

Until later.

I woke up at 2:30 this morning.  All of a sudden - wide awake.  It's going to be rough not taking a nap this afternoon.  I sure hope my sleeping medication refills get here today.

I predicted a blizzard, so we got nothing. If I predicted a trace then we would have the blizzard. that is the way the forecasts usually are around here.  like tomorrow only an inch is forecast we could get hammered.

 

Up early, stupid body doesn't know when to sleep in. So here I am having coffee with my friends. ??

 

So, my interview then I have speech therapy. I will post up what happens later.

 

Hugs,

      Good morning    On this date in 1972 it was a Saturday. I  made a pledge to love and honor my wife and keep her forsaking all others.  I have kept those vows and here we are celebrating our 52nd anniversary still together.  Still caring for each other through sickness and in health.  Still sharing our lives.   Other than that, it’s another day near the beach.  80 and mostly sunny.     I found a ‘17 GMC Acadia yesterday I want to take a look at.  It’s a bit more than I wanted to spend but it’s doable. Only 69k miles on it, with the low mileage I put on cars these days it probably won’t ever hit 100k if I do beget it.  Low mileage now is  likely because it was a leased car at some point. Those usually get pretty good care and not a lot of miles.  It would be similar in size to my Ford, 7 passenger seating but a more basic trim which is fine.  It only has a 4 cyl engine so potentially rather under powered for a relatively large SUV.  The ford has a 4.0liter 6 which is a bit large for cars these days.  Instead of full time all wheel drive, it apparently has 4 modes, 2, 4, sport (what ever that is, I presume it’s over drive turned off) and anti slip.  It’s probably not going to happen but I am keeping my eyes open for a good deal. The old Ford is just that, an old worn out Ford.  Since I bought the Ford I’ve only put about 10k miles on it in 6 years.  My daughter once had an Acadia, top trim package.  When she was driving back and forth to work close to 100 miles per day and going to Philadelphia every week another 500 or more.  For her the miles added up fast.   still keeping my eyes open.  This is about the right age and size but I was hoping to spend about $2000 less.   Other than that I hope to meet with my minister today about paper topics for my class submission.   Other than that Monday is laundry day so I’ll be doing several loads of laundry today.     I put on a neutral gel nail polish last night.  I tried this before, however, I don’t believe I correctly understood the how to get a good result so I was more careful this time.  All I want it’s to give my bpfinger nails enough strength to grow out just a little and stop tearing.   Well, I need to call to make an urology appointment.   @Birdiei was born in Ohio and until Lamda Legal sued them you could not get a sex change on a birth certificate for any reason.  Now you can.  In South Carolina a name change requires $300 and a form filled out and filed with the clerk of courts.  But a gender change requires a birth certificate with the new gender listed.  I am hoping they will permit gender X eventually but right now the state is too Red to do any such thing.   Willow

      I have the problem, that I see myself at 3 maybe 4 on the list. I don't have the self love that I should have.   What does it mean to you?   Kymmie

      Seems the stuffy day-centre has swapped out Psychiatric Services and therapy to the local BSA hospital. BSA works closely with the local university and is much more gender accepting than the day-centre. The day-centre's psychiatrist wanted to treat me for gender dysphoria by correcting it. 🙄   I logged into MyChart app at the hospital and updated my preferred name (Birdie) and preferred gender marker for them to use.  I'll try and get a referral for gender therapy at the hospital as well.    Nevada is my place of birth and I found out changing the gender marker on my birth certificate there only requires a letter from a licensed therapist, but a name change still requires a court order.    Changing the gender marker to female would at least be one step in the right direction, then I could renew my ID to state female instead.

      Well today by attention wise was downright horrible. My legs can't stay still, can't focus on a project, my mind wanders around a lot, constantly fidgeting, easily distracted, couldn't even tell you what the sermon was about but there was vine on the altar and attention to detail sucks. I have read that it is possible to have BPD and ADHD. My mind even wanders during prayer. If I have both I won't be able to take Adderall because it makes my BPD symptoms worse. I keep having side effects that come up from my 3 traumatic brain injuries.

      If it wasn't so *EVIL*, I would have to laugh.  Everyone knows that trans women in particular have such an overwhelming superiority in poetry that the competition would be unfair if they were allowed to enter.  You can't make this stuff up!   Seriously, sorry for making light of it.  But it is only by highlighting the utter absurdity of this kind of crap, whether it occurs in Russia or Florida, that I am able to hang on to any shred of sanity.

      I used to fully agree with this statement, that is, until the first lockdown   Everyone I knew around me was affected by the pandemic. they couldn't work. they couldn't see their friends. they felt bored/ frustrated they couldn't get out of the house   and then there was me who welcomed it, because for once in my life, I didn't feel like a loser- and after lockdown, when everyone looked forward to going back to work or going out, well.. I had nothing- and I felt that no, I wasn't normal because I didn't have a life to get back to
