Morgan does that tractor have a 3 point or just a draw bar, classy tractor. If you need snow I be more than glad to share with you. danny It does have a 3-point in a way. When I bought it, it had most of a john deere 801 hitch that originally came on the models 60 and 70. I liked it so much that I ...

Got tired of pushing snow looking backwards years ago. Got a plow for the truck. I plow in a t shirt and listening to the radio. Still have the 8N ford for the brush mower. I'd check to make sure of the rpm needed is high enough to run a generator. Should be for the smaller ones as they are usually...

Its a 1956 John Deere Model A.It will push snow like crazy but is fussy it REAL cold weather. I didn't know they were making the A in 56. I thought they quit in 52. Anyway, I have a 46 slant-dash AW that I use for blading that sure earns its keep. Then again, it don't snow much if at all around her...

I guess I am the only 19K so far. My dad was 13A10 and 17C20 in Vietnam. For those of you who don't know 17C20, its sound ranger.

I too have the same hammer and I have never had a problem with it. I have only owned it though for just over a year. Another good hammer is the brass/plastic brownell hammers. I have one of them that has been going for over 16 yrs. The only bad thing about it is that if you don't check the tighness ...

I have only had one in my life that I would consider junk and it was one of those Century Arms-made recievers. What is the deal with them? Are they really bad, or just not great, or not collectible, or what? I got one a ways back for a low price, figuring if nothing else the stock was worth what I ...

I wish I had all the ones I sold back to go with this family. At one time, I had 8 but sold them all to fund my levergun purchases. Well, at least they went for a good cause :lol: Kansas Ed and cnjarvis, if I can make a suggestion and you have the capitol, you need to take the plunge soon because th...

I haven't had a whole lot of time lately since school began but I went to the local big 5 store and bought a fairly nice H&R garand with an unusual barrel. I have looked through all of my books and the internet and haven't found it yet. The markings are 68(year) with a star in a circle. Thats it...

My dad trained as an artilleryman for Vietnam but was made an FO and then a sound ranger. Both of his parents worked for Kaiser ship yards as my grandad was hard of hearing. My other grandad was on the Yorktown and transferred just prior to it sinking. I have both confederates and northerners in my ...

Looks like near Columbus,NM, and the Poncho Villa militia. A former student of mine showed me a picture that belonged to his great grandad that looked very similar.

Own several, pencil barrel is my favorite configuration. Mine too. I have never been fond of the fat barrels. Historically, the model 10 was one of the most popular firearms for police for a long time. Its weight was light and it fit most hands. Accuracy is good and knockdown is acceptable with the...

I've only had three pump action shotguns, a Savage 12g 24" slug barrel, a Savage 20g and a little 870 Express 28g. They were all good guns but the Remy was a real sweet little shooter! GK junior always had a green eye for it, so when he graduated from college I gave it to him! I would not hesi...

That photo is a fine example why the only things I like green are Green dot, green paint, and a green liver.

Good pic. Last year when I took my first deer, there was another buck, slightly smaller walking side-by-side, very close to the one I shot. I wasn't thinking about it at the time but what if that ball would have went through the first? Thats something I imagine would be hard to explain to a game war...

morgan in nm

Well, I'm a winchester man all the way but the 870 is one of the finest pump guns that can be had in my opinion. Lightweight, smooth, good wood, parts available everywhere(I've never seen one actually worn out) and available in most guages. Whats not to like. When it comes to fitting, most are fitte...

Nailed a coyote once in the shoulder and left an 8" diameter exit just curious, how could this happen, did a bone shatter and blow a hole through? Or did the bullet break up with the pieces cutting that hole, like a shotgun blast? I ran across a description of a paper-patched lead bullet that ...

If the music is older than me, I like it. Other than Carrie Underwood. I like her but not so much her music

When it comes to guitars, I have owned a good bit of them but never could learn how to play.

I like the 1900 copy of the catalog because it is handy for reference on calibers. I have it and one from the twenties. The later one is terrible because it don't have very much in firearms.

Excellent RR7. Had to do the same quite a few times. I don't think youll have a problem with the bottle calves unless you are going to eat them. That is always the hardest for people. I have a big jersey cow that was bottle fed and it is a blessing. I have never had a friendlier animal. Almost too f...

Good luck with your LC. I used to be a shotgun nut and still have the first SXS Field grade that I bought out of the newspaper many years ago and I couldn't part with it even as ugly as it is.

He was just an extra. No leading roles that I know of.

I would give his name but I don't know if he could get in trouble having his collection inside a bank even if he owns it.

After not having been working in the last 2 years, I had to go to the bank yesterday for some capitol and my banker called me into his office to show me his collection. One day, I will remember to take some photos but he has 2 dozen colts, several winchesters, and a few shotguns. His family were all...

Its hard to find good gun deals around here because the antique dealers will go out to where the classified ads say the sale is going to be held and buy up everything 3 or 4 days before the sale. The unadvertised sales are usually hard to find. Occasionally, I have found some brass. One in particula...

I hate to even suggest it but ebay is a decent source. Several months ago, I bought a winchester 32-165 mold on there and it is ok but doesn't cast the bullets that I like. I wish I would have just ordered the RCBS mold and been happy.

Pump shotgun either an early 870 (modified) or a mossberg. I believe it had a round pump.

Fascinating 86er. You sound like a gunsmith I once knew, Leonard Bull. He thought it was unsporting to shoot anything without giving it a chance to hurt you.

On mine, I bought a cannelure tool from Buffalo Arms and recut the cannelure on Hornady 350's. Works really well for me. Others have the throat reamed but thats up to you.

Dang thats nice. Put a warning up next time.

I would be happy with a half worn out 94 in 32-40.

Not like I'll ever have the money to invest but what I did when times were good for me was firearms. The returns were huge when it came time to liquidate some assets.

morgan in nm

First lever I bought myself is a win 94 in 25-35 that I still have. The single action is a little hazy. Either it was the 51 colt navy that I gave to my dad or the Ruger vaquero in stainless that I still have. I'm pretty sure the first would have to be the ruger?

morgan in nm

My dad wasn't much of a collector untill he came back from Vietnam. Before that, he was a ranch hand and a gun was nothing more than a tool. When he rotated back, he started collecting. Unfortunately, when I was growing up, he sold most of his collection off to put food on the table. He was always a...

Since the lanyard ring appears to be stainless steel and not blue, I would guess this to be an aftermarket addition. S&W would have put a blued lanyard had they done this. S&W is temporarily not sending out letters. Not sure why, but have been told it will resume soon. Roy Jinks' letters ar...

I am kinda slow to getting around to this post but just out of curiosity, what is a good starting point using unique on 7.62x54?

It doesn't have a safety and it isn't in my copy of supica's book either. The serial dates it to around march of 1970 according to my best guess.

If you want to go with new equipment, I would have to agree with the others on the hand press. My dad still has nightmares blowing a primer with the Lee Loader and 30-30. If you don't mind used, look around for a decent bench-mounted press and a scale.

$299 would have been a good deal here too. I am trying to remember but I think that serial number falls in the stamped carrier range.
