15 Things Winchester Got Right

Winchester has been around for over 100 years. 

Although it has undergone changes and ownership, the Winchester brand, be it firearms or ammo, is a brand that still resonates among gun owners. 

MSN posted a slideshow article on the "15 things Winchester got right that kept the brand alive for generations."

They start it with:

Winchester got one of the most important things right from the start: repeating fire mattered. In an era when many firearms were still single-shot or slow to reload, Winchester leaned into lever-action repeating rifles. That gave shooters more rounds on tap and changed what a rifle could do in the hands of hunters, settlers, lawmen, and soldiers.

That early move shaped the whole brand. Winchester did not become famous because it made another ordinary rifle. It became famous because it helped make the repeating rifle part of American firearm culture. Once people connected the Winchester name with fast follow-up shots and practical firepower, the brand had a powerful identity to build from.

Shibuya Introduces Littering Fine

Japan is one of the most cleanest countries in the world.

It is rare to see litter on the ground even in the most populous cities in the world such as Tokyo. Apparently, with huge numbers of foreign visitors, a litter problem is developing in the Shibuya Ward.

They are now instituting a litter fine in Shibuya.

According to the BBC:

Litterbugs in the Japanese tourist hub of Shibuya will now face an on-the-spot fine of 2,000 Japanese yen ($13; £9), as new penalties take effect amid the country's tourism boom.

The fine collection system kicked in on Monday in Shibuya Ward, a commercial and entertainment centre that is home to the famed Shibuya Crossing.

In certain districts, authorities are also handing out fines for food and beverage shop operators who do not install waste bins.

20 of the Most-Trusted Hunting Rifles in America

Above, types of hunting rifles. Sportsmans Warehouse photo.

Since I am not a hunter and I don't play one on TV, I'll leave it to the "experts" to determine the best and most-trusted hunting rifles in America. 

AOL posted an article on what are the 20 most-trusted hunting rifles in America. 

They start it with:

When it comes to hunting, trust in your rifle matters just as much as skill in the field. These are the rifles American hunters rely on when the shot counts, from proven classics like the Remington Model 700 to modern platforms built for precision and durability. What sets them apart is not just performance on paper, but years of real-world use in tough conditions. These are the rifles that have earned their reputation the hard way.

To determine the most trusted hunting rifles in America, History Computer reviewed various historical and military sources. We included supplemental information for each rifle regarding the type, common calibers, primary game use, accuracy reputation, price tier, and ultimately why hunters trust it.

10 Firearms Where Wear Boosts Collector Value

Above, the gun department at Cabela's in Albuquerque. Photo by Armand Vaquer.

Some collectors of firearms prefer pristine or nearly pristine guns. Others prefer some wear on them as it boosts collector value. Since I am in neither camp, I'll just leave it up the the reader.

MSN posted a slideshow article on 10 firearms where wear boosts collector valute. 

They begin it with:

Many collectible firearms gain value when they retain original finishes and show signs of honest use rather than restoration. From classic revolvers and lever-action rifles to iconic military sidearms, subtle patina and light wear often signal authenticity and preserve historical character. Scarcity, craftsmanship, and unaltered condition combine to make these well-worn examples highly sought after by collectors.

Video: Tips For Cross-Country Road Trips

Since I bought my RV, I have made three cross-country road trips in it. I consider a cross-country trip to be one that includes multiple states. It doesn't have to be coast-to-coast, in my opinion. 

The first was from L.A. to Metropolis, Illinois with side trips to Memphis, Tennessee and Springfield, Illinois. The second was the Great American Eclipse trip to Idaho to see a total eclipse. Then, last year, a friend and I traveled to Cody, Wyoming and, from there, to the Black Hills of South Dakota with stops in-between.  

RV Travel posted an article with video on five beginner tips for planning a cross-country road trip.

It begins with:

Have you ever wanted to do a cross-country road trip in your RV but don’t know how to start planning? The team from the Long Long Honeymoon is here to help.

In the video below, they share five tips for beginners planning a cross-country trip. For the record, the tips will work even if you are planning a cross-country trip in a car, as opposed to an RV.

Rate Your Health Considering Your Age

As the following RV Travel article states, aging is a funny thing.

Funny, in the sense that is varies among individuals. One may be in excellent health, while another person of the same age may be a wreck. Or, one may be somewhere in-between.

RV Travel has posted a poll on how one rates their health considering their age. 

It begins with:

Aging is a funny thing. One day you’re bouncing back from anything, and the next day you make a strange noise just standing up from your camp chair. But here’s the thing: Age and health don’t always go hand in hand the way people assume they do.

Some RVers in their 70s are hiking trails, climbing into truck campers, and exploring the country like they’re decades younger. Others feel every mile in their joints by the end of a travel day. And, honestly, most of us probably fall somewhere in between.

Health can mean a lot of different things, too. Maybe you deal with aches and pains, but still feel strong overall. Maybe you take medications or have limitations, but consider yourself healthy for your age. Or maybe you feel better now than you did 10 years ago because you finally have less stress and more time to enjoy life.

Hawaiian Airlines Cuts Free Meals In Economy

Above, a Hawaiian Airlines jet at Maui in 2016. Photo by Armand Vaquer.

I remember the days when some domestic flights served meals that were a part of the price of a ticket. I only flew to Hawaii and back once and meals were included. This was ten years ago.

Then, gradually, airlines cut domestic meals down to flights over five hours in length. Then they served meals, but charged for them and one must order a meal before the plane even taxies down the runway.

Now, it has been announced that Hawaiian Airlines is cutting free meals from domestic flights from the mainland to Hawaii, except for flights originating from New York's JFK airport. The announcement is being spun like lipstick on a pig.

One Mile At A Time reported:

Historically, Hawaiian Airlines has offered free meals on flights between Hawaii and the United States mainland. That’s an amenity that’s quite rare nowadays, especially outside of the “long haul” Hawaii flights from the East Coast, Midwest, etc., so it was a real point of differentiation.

Well, major changes are coming to Hawaiian’s inflight service, and the airline is certainly burying the lede. The announcement about the change notes how the airline is “elevating onboard service with pre-order dining by celebrated Hawai‘i chefs.” But really that’s just a positive spin on announcing that free meals are being cut in economy.

The changes will be implemented as of July 1, 2026, and entail “a new onboard service program that delivers greater choice, improved quality and a deeper connection to the flavors of Hawai‘i.” The new menu is being developed in partnership with Maui-based, James Beard Award finalist Chef Sheldon Simeon.

The Winchester 1894 Still Wins Against Newer Lever Actions

Above, yours truly in Barking Spider Acre with the Winchester 94.

Before I bought my Winchester 94 back in 2019, I looked at other lever-action rifles. 

While some rifles looked nice, I wasn't impressed with their workmanship and functionality. I was still a lot more interested in the Winchesters and was on the lookout for a pre-1964. 

I found one in an Albuquerque gun shop while just there browsing for something to do. I bought it as it was in very good shape, made in 1962, a .30-30 and the price was right (under $500).

These days, more people are discovering the fun the Winchester 94 and other lever guns provide. But, according to a post at MSN, there are five reasons the Winchester 94 wins against newer lever-actions.

They begin with:

Plenty of newer lever actions offer sharper machining, accessory rails, and updated finishes, but the Winchester 1894 still holds a special edge. Its appeal is not just nostalgia. From handling to heritage, this classic rifle keeps proving that old ideas can remain remarkably hard to beat.

Dollar at ¥159

Now that we're in a new month (June, in case you have been dozing off), it is time to take a peek at how the U.S. dollar is faring against the Japanese yen. This is important as we are nearing the summer vacation season and American travelers to Japan should know how much yen their dollars will get them.

According to Jiji Press:

On the Tokyo foreign exchange market on the 1st, the yen was trading at 159.45-159.47 yen to the dollar as of 5 p.m., a 20 sen depreciation of the yen against the dollar compared to the previous weekend (159.25-159.27 yen).

Classic Rock Music Monday

The stuff that now passes as "music", particularly rock 'n roll, leaves me cold. So, to start off the week, here's a video of a classic rock artist.

To start off the week, we have Coven with their hit from the movie Billy Jack (1971) "One Tin Soldier". It is interesting to note that Billy Jack only made only $10 million during its initial 1971 release. But during its 1973 re-release, it became a huge hit and reportedly made over $50 million, a big feat for a small indie film at the time.

The song also became a huge hit during the summer of 1973.

John Moses Browning Got Almost No Credit For Gun Inventions

Why Did the Man Behind America's Most Iconic Firearms End Up With Almost None of the Credit video by Ivan Jackson.

Summary:

Why Did the Man Behind America's Most Iconic Firearms End Up With Almost None of the Credit

John Moses Browning designed over 75% of the repeating arms on the American market by 1900. The Winchester 1894. The Colt 1911. The BAR. His name appeared on almost none of them. The companies got the credit. The Belgian factory got the man. This is the story of how America's greatest gun designer ended up nearly invisible inside his own legacy.

Wow! Clint Eastwood turned 96 today!

It is hard to believe that he has reached this milestone. Then again, it is also hard to believe that I am 24 years behind him in age! 

Well, growing old is not so bad when one considers the alternative, eh?

I was forunate enough to meet him and get his autograph at the Reagan-Bush Victory Party at the Century Plaza Hotel. I had him sign my ticket to the private reception (below).

Happy Birthday, Clint!

A new report is showing that Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona is the ninth busiest national park for summer RV camping.

According to an article in AZ Free News:

As Summer RV travel peaks across the United States, new research highlights stark differences in crowding at America’s national parks. Arizona’s iconic Grand Canyon National Park stands as a major draw for RV enthusiasts, ranking ninth busiest overall despite a cooling trend in 2025.

According to data from Blue Capital Holdings, RV campers flocked to Glacier National Park in Montana more than any other over the past five years, logging more than 429,000 summer visits (June-August) from 2021 to 2025. Yosemite National Park in California followed closely in second place.

Top 5 Most Popular National Parks for Summer RV Camping (2021-2025):

Why National Park Gateway Towns Are Struggling

These are strange times.

One would think that national park gateway towns are going gangbusters with tourist travel dollars flowing in. Well, yes and no.

According to an article in RV Travel, national park gateway towns are struggling.

They begin with:

For decades, gateway towns near America’s national parks thrived. Travelers came to see the parks, and the towns provided everything else. Fuel. Groceries. Campgrounds. Restaurants. Laundry. RV repair shops. Ice cream. Souvenirs. Showers. Propane. You name it, they probably had it.

But this summer, many of those small towns are feeling squeezed, and RVers, if you haven’t already, you may start noticing the effects.

From Yellowstone to Zion to Glacier to the Smokies, gateway communities are dealing with a difficult mix of rising tourism pressure, staffing shortages, higher costs, housing problems, and aging infrastructure. In some places, local officials say they’re struggling just to keep up with the number of visitors arriving every day.

And for RVers, that can mean longer waits, fewer services, crowded roads, and significantly higher prices.

American Rifleman: 18 New Shotguns For 2026

Above, an early Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny. Warner Bros. image.

In the market for a new shotgun?

Personally, I'm not as I already have four of varying ages. The oldest are my Manton 12 gauge made somewhere in the 1800s and my Winchester 1912 (or Model 12) that was made in 1919 along with a Mossberg 500E .410 pump and Remington 870 12 gauge Express. These are plenty for me.

American Rifleman (NRA) posted a list of 18 new shotguns for 2026. They vary in price and design. 

They begin with:

Among today's firearm platforms, the shotgun remains one of the most time-tested, but that doesn't mean there isn't room for improvement. Today's new crop of shotguns runs the gamut, giving modern shotgunners new options in nearly every conceivable category. From break-action designs with a third barrel to modernized semi-automatics that provide more reliable operation than ever before, it's a good time to be a shotgun fan.

Check out 18 of the latest and greatest new shotguns on the market today.

The Most and Least Expensive National Parks To Camp

Camping used to be an economically cheap way to vacation. Well, it is turning out to be even less so these days.

Granted, camping is still, on average, cheaper than hotel vacations. 

If one wants to plan a camping vacation (provided one can get a campsite) in a national park, expect to find some "sticker shock" costs involved. I last camped in a national park in 2017. It was in Grand Canyon National Park's Trailer Village at the South Rim.

Time Out has posted an article on the most and least expensive national parks to camp in this summer.

Above, my RV at Grand Teton National Park, which tops the list of priciest national parks. Photo by Armand Vaquer.

They begin it with:

Camping has long been sold as the affordable alternative to pricey hotels and resort fees. But if you've tried booking a campsite lately, bought a bundle of firewood at a national park camp store or filled up your gas tank for a road trip, you already know that roughing it doesn’t always come cheap.

A new study from Casino.org compared the costs of camping across America’s 15 most-visited national parks and found that a weekend under the stars can vary wildly depending on where you pitch your tent this summer. Researchers looked at average costs including campsite fees, park entry and permit charges, meals and drinks, gas, firewood, ice and popular outdoor activities to figure out which parks will drain your wallet fastest—and which still deliver a relatively budget-friendly escape.

Topping the list as the most expensive national park for campers is Grand Teton National Park, where a weekend camping trip now averages a hefty $439. Between campground fees, fuel costs and pricey activities, the Wyoming park proved significantly more expensive than many travelers might expect from a tent-based vacation.

'Supergirl' Pre-release Tracking Looks Disastrously Bad

Above, the classic Supergirl by Jim Mooney.

When James Gunn's Superman was released, I was not impressed. The costume was horrible and the story was not interesting enough to me to head to the local theater.

It appears his Supergirl is underwhelming people as well and is on track to be a disappointing flop.

I enjoyed the previous Superman movies, you know, the Henry Cavill ones. I wasn't too thrilled over his costume either, but I liked the movies and his portrayal. DC Entertainment decided to jettison that series and do another reboot. 

Above, the first appearance of Supergirl by Curt Swan and Al Plastino.

Fox News has posted an article on how Supergirl is not looking too promising. 

They begin it with:

DC Studios, housed at Warner Bros. Pictures, has tried to revamp its film and release strategies under the direction of James Gunn. Gunn, who was responsible for the "Guardians of the Galaxy" series, joined DC in 2022. His first big movie, made to jump-start the new DC direction, was 2025's "Superman." While not exactly a flop, it was a box-office disappointment. And Gunn himself may have been partially to blame.

Though the film avoided politics almost entirely, for some inexplicable reason, Gunn himself brought it up in pre-release promotional interviews.

"Yes, it’s about politics," Gunn explained in a story from The Times of London. "But on another level, it’s about morality.

"I mean, ‘Superman’ is the story of America – an immigrant that came from other places and populated the country," he continued. "But for me, it is mostly a story that says basic human kindness is a value and is something we have lost."

"It’s about human kindness, and obviously, there will be jerks out there who are just not kind and will take it as offensive just because it is about kindness. But screw them," he concluded.

Sure enough, "Superman" brought in substantially less money, before and after adjusting for inflation, than "Man of Steel." And pre-release tracking for the latest entry in Gunn's new DC Studios series, "Supergirl," is tracking to do substantially worse.

Las Cruces, An RV Destination

Above, at camp at the Las Cruces KOA Kampground. Photo by Armand Vaquer.

Five years ago, I went down to Las Cruces, New Mexico to attend the Southern New Mexico State Fair.

I drove to Las Cruces from Jamestown, New Mexico via Interstate 40 and took NM Highway 6, a shortcut route to Interstate 25 to avoid Albuquerque. Interstate 25 was taken to Las Cruces. Once I reached Las Cruces, I took Interstate 10 to the Las Cruces KOA Kampground, where I stayed. 

I enjoyed my visit to Las Cruces and the state fair. I attended the fair's rodeo at the Pete Domenici Rodeo Arena. The Mexican food in town was good, although not as spicy hot as what one finds in the northern half of New Mexico.

RV Travel posted an article on Las Cruces.

They begin it with:

Las Cruces, a true desert destination, is nestled in southern New Mexico’s scenic Mesilla Valley.

This Chihuahuan Desert city of about 117,000 is situated between the Rio Grande and the majestic Organ Mountains. What makes Las Cruces a great destination for RVers? Read on to find out.

Monument Valley: The Only "Worth It" U.S. Attraction In The World

Above, the West Mitten in Monument Valley. Photo by Armand Vaquer.

When one is traveling around the U.S. or even the world and stops are made at attractions. Following one's visit, one may ask themselves, "Was this worth it?"

That very question crossed my mind a few times. But there is one place that I never tire of visiting, and that is Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park that straddles the Utah-Arizona border.

Monument Valley has made number 20 of a global top 20 of "worth it" places.

TimeOut posted an article on Monument Valley's status.

It begins with:

When you're shelling out for admission tickets, battling crowds and spending hours getting somewhere, there's one question every traveler eventually asks (if they dare): was it worth it?

According to a new analysis of nearly 3 million online travel reviews, there is only one American destination that received an affirmative answer: Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park.

The iconic tribal park, known for its towering sandstone buttes rising from the desert along the Arizona-Utah border, was the only U.S. attraction to crack the global top 20 in a new ranking from InsureandGo. Researchers analyzed review language for some of the world's most famous, expensive and difficult-to-reach destinations, tracking how often travelers explicitly described their visit as "worth it."
