FREEDOM ARMS RUNNER
« on: June 18, 2010, 07:31:35 PM »
Went on a little juant today to Freedom Arms to check on a handgun, when you leave Soda Springs, Idaho there's not much out there except the highway & lots of mountains all the way to Freedom, Wyoming.



  70 miles of beautiful, wild country, a few farm houses along the way, lots of cattle grazing, also a few wild critters.



Spotted this cow moose on an open side hill, she probably had a calf stashed in the brush.



I hammered a few ground squirrels before dark using the 32 maggie & the Lipseys 44 special. I sure love me new Barranti, Hank Sloan holster, the cant is perfect for the 44, it rides the hip like a credit card in my wallet.





Had to take a better close up of the Hank Sloan style holster, Mike also made the belt & a nifty cartridge holder (dang it! left it home!)  Thats a badger track on the holster....thanks Mike!



Three neat old buildings, a bunk house, cook shack & a small barn, long abandoned & forgotten.



Hope you enjoyed the "ride",   Dick

YUP! That's all it takes to make me homesick for Sweetwater County, just a another couple hours down the road!! We spent a long weekend at a ranch there in Thayne shortly after we were married in '96. Love Star Valley, but love the Green River more!
Regards,
Sweetwater

Road trips are fun
Those road trips, in that part of the country, are great on the eyes and the spirit.
Thanks for the pics.
Blessings
