Filthie's Mobile Fortress Of Solitude
Where Great Intelligence Goes To Be Insulted

 Hmmmmmm. What have we here? Looks like a no-frills .45 carrying what may or may not be a precision adjustable rear sight? We can look at it closer once we’ve had a few drinks, I suppose.

That little skinner knife up front… veeeeeery interesting. This person is either a well versed sportsman schooled in the ways of the field and stream… or he’s some big city soy posing as one. That is simply a superb little skinner, and would be just the ticket once the deer is on the ground and it’s time to go to work! A business like blade, with a generous handle and a finger groove for added control and precision…? A skinner doesn’t get any better than that! But! If someone is carrying that as an EDC blade…? You’re prolly looking at a piker, or a Californian, or a poseur! Skinners are for skinning; their utility is extremely limited beyond that. 

Eagle Rare bourbon? I am out of my area of expertise. I was a scotch drunkard connoisseur and most of that was with single malts. If memory serves (and sometimes it does) I have had Four Roses, Makers Mark, Elijah Craig, Blanton’s… and they were all good, but I really remember liking Blanton’s the best.  Buffalo Trace was spectacular. This is a 17 year old? That could be good or bad… but if someone else is pouring… I suppose that automatically makes it good, right?

My drinking days are largely over… but I wouldn’t mind trying a wee dram just for fun.

  1. yup. it is what happens when you become a old fart. your drinking days are behind you. but like you I do enjoy a snort of the "good stuff"
    now and then. that does make the bottle last a lot longer than before
    have a bottle of 18 year old Macellan for the last 1-2 years now.
    I think there might be 2 snorts left in it. last time I looked at prices
    I had to step back. god the price has gone up a lot since that last one. used to just shy of100 bucks or so, now,,, damn !

  2. That snail drum magazine in background - is that for a Luger ?

  3. Looks like a Gold Cup. I figured out early on that the hangover wasn't worth the happy fun drunk. 3 beers and I'm a little too friendly to ladies in my AO.

  5. Looks like the trigger may be adjustable too…race gun? The upper screw in the grip is loose. Eagle Rare is damn nice. Pairs well with any Padron or Davidoff.

  8. I have a partial 1/2 gallon of Buffalo Trace in my cabinet. I have drank Four Roses, Blanton's (My Favorite), Knob Creek (My everyday). Try Angel's Envy. Very Smooth. Try Garrison Brothers (Full Bodied bourbon). Been wanting to try the Eagle Rare but my store is always sold out.
