At 0400 on a empty Korean mountain highway at 140 KPH with a huge upward cliff on one side and a downward cliff to a rice pattie below. The right rear brake locked up! The car went to three shops before repairs were completed. The metal had welded itself from the heat.

Across the street from this is the Civil War museum. I got some old airhead BMW parts from a distingushed retired gentleman who volunteers as a tour guide at both the WWII National Museum and the French Quarter.

I washed two English Springer Spaniels three times before someone gave me a mixture on the old levergun forum. That helped but I think my water bill must have doubled.

If anyone can forget the taste of a lemon flavored cornflake bar in a LRP ration. That would greatly impress me and has my sincerest respect.

I saw a very old box of Colt manufactured ammo about 25 years ago. It was labeled 45 LONG COLT on the box. I do believe Colt new the name of the product and knew what they were selling.

Thanks Hammerman for the information! I think I'll try this one.

Any input on this 22 magnom levergun. One nearby has checkered stocks and a weaver scope for $275.

Big Bore 94

Thanks Meanc, That is the type. The numbers on this box are ony one digit different. This Levergun is online at midwestguntrader.com in Missouri with a few good photos.

Big Bore 94

Thanks Griff, It is like that but all metal has a factory brushed chrome finish. The box says Black Shadow Brushed Chrome Finish.

Big Bore 94

This is a Black Shadow that is NIB and the seller says 500 were made. Anyone know about these

Hot brass hitting a horse with rider from two gatling guns. I almost want to see the actor on that short ride.

Is Whitney Texas named after Eli or Junior

Big Bore 94

Thanks! I'll start low. I do not every recall coming across data quite like this. I called Sierra and they said Alliant 2400 is made at a different location and using different raw materials. Hopefully I can find a nice load that will work in more than one 357.

I see quite a difference in published loads in recent manuals using 158 grain jacketed bullets. Maximum charges from 13.8 to 15 grains and minimum from 9.3 to 14 grains. This puts the starting load over the max load. What are your thoughts

I have a few turret presses and enjoy collecting Lee Loaders and Ideal/Lyman 310 gear. I was using the 310 the last two evenings. I enjoy "handloading".

Has anyone else noticed that when you say the times square dummies name with a bit of inflection it sounds like an expletive..... FAISAL SHAZAD!

Glad to hear that your son is healing. Thanks you all for the ideas. I have been out of the service for fifteen years and I knew things may have changed. The Post Office said if using the large flat rate box make it at least 4-5 pounds. If not there are less expensive ways to mail. After filling all...

Mr. Gould's exellent designed bullet using XMP5744 out of a guide gun at close range makes quite a racket and large hole. That powder smells different also. The he(R)bivores will go nocturnal after that sound. Thanks Tycer!

While walking outside today. I had reminders of the snow and ice that has been here since December 24th. A wee bit still left in a few places. It was almost 50 degrees, very sunny and just a slight breeze. I saw a black object rise about three feet and return to mother earth. I went to investigate a...

I was so elated when we were issued M240's (GPMG to those in the U.K.) in 1979. The M60 is a belt fed disposable in comparison. We would always test new MG's with Lake City ammo as it was the poorest quality. Unbelievable never ever even one jam.

Having had quite a few there is a tie for 1st place a 30 WCF and 38-55 nickel steel barrels both from 1895. 2nd place goes to the best trigger 2,700,1xx. If it letters and is pre 1898 buy them!

I was told by family growing up that it was this Mr.William B. Howard. He was one of the allies and the founder of the town of Strother Missori in 1865. The name of the town was later changed to Lee's Summit as in Robert E. Lee. Cole Youngers home was at the corner of 3rd and Jefferson in Lee's Summ...

On that silly experimental tank the M60A2 It did have a manual overide crank so it was sort of a levergun. The M60A2 had a 156mm bore and could also fire a laser guided missile out of the cannon. Cleaning the rotating and locking electric fired breach took at least an hour. The main gun cartridge ca...
