I was lurking @ SSM the other day & I was reading a post by RymanGunDogs...about one of the "Three" Sacred Silver Breeched LC Smith Executive Guns
Later in the thread someone called him "Beans"
Now I remember Beans from the old board here...
I could never figure if was in the know..or knew not?
What's the deal on him.
Some folks seem to mess with him, & take the piss...
I personally have a hard time with the way he seems to think the LC Smith is the best gun ever made, but that 's ok.
I am honestly curious , & No harm meant to him , or LC Smith
cheers

Controversy follows him very close on >>EVERY BOARD<< I have seen him post ... and it's been quite afew.

I know he was booted off another board I frequent. Caused some headaches for the folks there, but have no idea about the specifics (nor would I get involved in any sort of smear campaign)

But...interesting story. When I joined the other board, I put up a picture of my birddog, a Weimaraner. He contacted me and said "call me. I think your dog is descended from my champion weim". Called him, pulled up the pedigree, and sure enough, he was right. I was impressed that he could tell from one photo that my dog was from the same lineage, years and many states apart. When I spoke to him on the phone, I definitely got the impression that there was very little that would ever sway his opinion about anything. ever.

I have heard of, and of course, tend to believe author Forsythe with the ODESSA FILE- THE OP LETTERS BEING SS- being the infamous WW2 Nazi "Protective Echelon' detailed to guard Adolph Hitler- based, if you are history buff, and whom here does not enjoy buffing a little history every now and then, on the Roman Praetorial Guard-- But I did not the SS had a magazine, whether published here or in Europe. I do know for a fact that since WW2 ended, Deutschland Uber Alles is NOT ever played in public, and no male child has ever been named Adolph either-- fascinating indeed!!

Doesn't look too original to me.

Runs,

When he says SS he means Shooting Sportsman Magazine. They have an online forum similar to this one. I believe you've been banned there, the same as on the LC Smith forum if memory serves.

Thanks Destry, Before you posted I reread the entire thread trying to figure out what Francis was talking about.

And I laughed out loud after I read your post.



And Francis I didn't know the SS had a magazine either.

Best,

Mike

I hardly ever know what RWTF is referring to...the sentence stucture and missing words always throw me...

Yeah just think Ole Ed gets out of his jail tomorrrow.

There is an inescapable air of self importance in everything he writes. It would be less noticeable if more folk posted over there...ghost town.

Toying with starting a pool to see who guess's how many days he lasts.I figure 10 days tops.

The buffed out LC above looks like a prime candidate for the 'torch.

Ma'Paa'ka he's your shoot'n paad'na

Battle, you sure Ed doesn't get out today? Dave has an open bed. Maybe he will place someone else in it. Any suggestions?

I dont know eightbore. Wish some of these yahoo's would hit the road, and some of the good guys come back. But thats another time lost now!

I been here quit sometime now, and i'll be the first to admit i dont know much about every double gun and dont care too. Most if not tons of the knowledge have either left or to be frank died off. I consider myself still fairly young (44). I dont try to speak about thing i know nothing about.

Words to live by.

Nice credo, but if followed, I'd be speechless.

Was kinda hoping for some opinions on Bean's L. C. Smith ???

I've had drinks with enough gunstock artists to question the age of that one. Grain, shape and fit seem to be more modern than original. Comments?

No doubt...redone
