I Met the Rifleman Once, I Miss That America | |
LORIEN (OP) User ID: 11452618  India02/25/2012 11:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I love that show. We watched it today. Its on everyday here we even got the kids watching it LOL. I want to fire my gun like that. Great story thanks for sharing. Quoting: countrymomkel 4095088 You are welcome! Good morals for the kids. I think if I remember he told us on stage that the loop was custom on that rifle and trips the trigger on each cock. I need to look up the gun, don't think it's a Winchester? It's easy to find something worth dying for. Do you have anything worth living for? |

Im 53 and I miss the shows that the whole family could sit and watch together. I wonder if it will ever be that way again. I would trade everything I have to see families like that again in this country. |

I would trade everything I have to see families like that again in this country. So many of us obviously feel this way. My dad and I would wait to watch Mchale's Navy and Jackie Gleeson with Crazy Guckenheim and Green Acres. Mister Kimble was our favorite. It was silly but clean. No sexual inuendos or fowl language. Red Skelton was the funniest. I don't know if we'll ever get it back in our lifetime. The media is too far gone. Sorositized. It's easy to find something worth dying for.

I also like "Grizzly Adams" & Roy Rogers movies/shows. I could go on & on.... Thanks for the post!

I used to watch it with my Dad on Saturdays. Thanks for comin' around, man. I don't care if Chuck did any of that, it doesn't take away from the fact that "The Rifleman" was a great show and instilled true moral values in kids like myself way back then. Thanks OP! Great Thread. I'm givin' 5 stars because what you wrote deserves it. Good God how this country has changed since then! |

Seriously, that is amazing stuff. I remember reading that many actors of old, like Jimmy Stewart, served our country back then. And it was the real deal in harms way. Thanks for letting us know about these particular actors. I didn't know that. Can you imagine any actor in America today doing anything those men did? No. Also, if anyone can confirm this, I read years ago that "Mr. Rodgers" yes Fred Rodgers was a sniper in Vietnam with over 100 confirmed kills. If that is true, I am simply amazed. But then it would fit in with the men of that generation (serving their country). |
