I don't know it I've gotten away with it yet BPS. It's possible that neither CalHunter nor our esteemed moderator Cayugad have seen it yet. :D

If any of you guys find it offensive or inappropriate let me know and I'll delete the picture.

Looks like the Coppertone girl finally grew up!! You know us Ol' timers are probably the only ones who remember that ad!

Now it's funny that you bring up the Coppertone Girl BPS. It just goes to illustrate how our society has changed. Everyone got a kick out of that ad and no one was upset. Today it might draw complaints of borderline "kiddie porn".

Anyway, you're right. The Coppertone Girl has grown up and is as cute as ever.

I remember those ads and the slogan "Tan don't burn - get a Coppertone Tan". But it was a slogan that was more of a little tune.

Thank you for posting the pictures!
I think I finally have an answer to the question I have asked in the past, but was never answered.
From looking at the picture -


it appears there are 2 notches in the hammer for the trigger sear to engage, providing a half-cock.
I have never seen a underhammer action in the half-cock position and wondered if they had one.

I like that sight, too! Looks very simple, but functional!

To top it off, they are a uniquely American innovation.

You know I like peep sights, and this one is a dandy with three aperture sizes.


better than todays peep sights..Great idea..

Nothing offensive about that pic... ;)

In this day and age, even thinking the wrong think or say something that can even be considered wrong, and someone is going to be offended. When did American's grow such a thin skin? But so far, no one complained to me about it.

That is what I would call, lovely!!! The young lady I mean.

What is that rear sight? I have an old Sears and Roebuck 50 cal that I want to put a peep sight on.
