I don't think it was a 1911. I think it was a Colt 1903. Watch it again and see if I'm right.

DerekR

That Marlin is beautiful!

DerekR

Good lookin wood. Looks even better without those white-line spacers that Marlin insist on using.

DerekR

Great looking chunks of wood! If it takes 1y per inch, our grandkids might have a shot at it... Does black walnut grow in Tennessee? I'm thinking of moving to Tenn., and it might make a nice present to my kids if I plant a bunch of Walnut for them to inherit! - Tristan It grows real well here, but ...

As you figured out, there needs to be a little "wooble" between the mould and the handles so the mould halves can fit tightly.

DerekR

I don't know about the .308, .30-'06 and .300 mag. But, I do know that you can use the 30/30 FCD on the .32 WS cartridge. Go slow and easy and it will work fine.

DerekR

I had two large black rat snakes do the "love dance" behind me while I was trying to call up a turkey last spring. It sure made it hard to concentrate on my calling!

DerekR

Wow...I didn't know Western Diamondbacks got that big!

DerekR

Make sure to send a copy to Midway and Brownells (maybe others?). You'll get a nice "dealer discount" on every order. I've probably saved the $30 cost of the license in discounts this year.

DerekR

Thanks Claybob.

My wife and I enjoy buying old coins. We have a decent collection of Morgans and such from the mid to late 1800s. Last week we bought a Seated Liberty Half Dollar from 1858. It is amazing to hold a 150 year old coin! We are wondering what a Half Dollar would have bought in 1858? Anybody know how we ...

DerekR

Good score Griff! Don't tell me how you got it for next to nothing....I couldn't take it!

DerekR

Sounds like a great deal! The last box of .32 Special ammo I saw was almost $20. Save your brass!

DerekR

I'm proud of these guys. I've never owned a Mossberg, but I need to send them some business. On consecutive pages you have a NEW levergun and that 4X4 bolt gun. Completely different ends of the spectrum. I hope they sell a trruck load of these guns.

DerekR

I never shot one, but I did hold a few. They struck me as somewhere between a NEF Handi Rifle and a Ruger #1. I'd be interested in one if the price was right.

DerekR

I have Rodeo 45Colt I LOVE it had two Vaquero's prior to Buying the Rodeo SOld the Vaquero's I am a BIG Ruger fan so dont think im downing Riuger one bit I am not . I still have 4 other Ruger handguns . I cary and shoot the Rodeo more than any others these days Coupled with the RCBS 270 SAA Its GRE...

In the County I live in (a suburb of Nashville), every High School has a Trap team. They did a segment about it on Shooting USA several years ago. You had big kids, small kids, girls, boys, Berettas and NEF Pardners all competing against each other. I think it is the greatest thing since sliced brea...

DerekR

Scott....who did that front sight for you? Is it dovetailed in? Looks good.

DerekR

Here is my Rodeo in .45 Colt. I really like this pistol. I had talked to Gary Granger about getting one in .44 Special, but the wait was long and I stumbled into a deal on this one. This one is smooth and has very tight tolerences. Shoots good too! [img][img]http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a145/sh...

Watch the price on some of those 21's and you may learn to love it! The originals bring a lot of money at auction. Check out this gentleman for parts for your sight: http://winchesterbob.com/lyman.htm I have ordered parts for my Lyman 21 from him and I was very satisfied. My front screw was buggered...

DerekR

Woody First of all, you didnâ€™t post any pictures, without pics itâ€™s very hard to do an assessment. The barrel can easily be bored and rifled to 38-55, or a new barrel can be made for it in the original caliber.

DerekR

Pretty cool, huh? Us .32 WS shooters have to get a little creative sometimes!

DerekR

The first time I held one of those it struck me as really heavy for it's small size. A little too heavy for a kid rifle, in my opinion. I'd love to have one for myself. I'd get a take-off full size buttstock and have me a cool little trapper!

DerekR

I use the FCD from my 30/30 die set on my .32WS and it works just fine. Just go slow and easy. I can't speak to the 32/40.

DerekR

My dog once got sprayed twice in one week. I had used all of the tomato juice I had the first time around, so I used Bloody Mary Mix. Yeah, it worked.......sorta! I hear that the Peroxide recipe is much more effective.

DerekR

I hadn't thought of lock-time Griff. I'm just experimenting and I'll see how she shoots this weekend. I love tinkering with my guns!

DerekR

I have a quick question guys. I hope I'm not hijackin'! I took a little bend out of that short spring that lays under the big spring to help the trigger pull on my 94. It seems to work fine, but I haven't shot it yet. The action is smoother and the trigger is lighter. Ya'll see any problems with my ...

DerekR

Tell us about that canoe! I've got a serious canoe fetish.

DerekR

Don't you love the .35 Remington? Mine is the most accurate levergun I own.

DerekR

I bought a Swift 3X9 about 10 years ago from a local gunshop. They were selling this one for about $40-50 witha lifetime "over-the-counter" guarantee. I figured I couldn't go wrong. That scope has been on a 6.5X55, a .30-06, a muzzleloader and a .22 rifle. So far it has held up just fine.

DerekR

I have several lever carbines in several calibers, and I love 'em all. I also have a Ruger RSI in .308 that is the EXACT length on a Winchester 94 carbine. That little Ruger is darned near perfect.

DerekR

I might need me one of those.

DerekR

Great post! I love pictures of casting setups.

DerekR

Gruhn Guitars in Nashville is my favorite slobber shop. In the late 70s I bought a used Les Paul Deluxe from him. It was an early 70s model and he took it on trade. Compared to the stuff he usually carries it was nothing more than something he wanted to get out of the shop I suppose. I wish I still ...

I tend to shoot up all of the money I save reloading!

DerekR

Hey Boge....you ever played an older Gallagher? I have a buddy that has one and it sounds really good. If you ever get over to Wartrace you should drop by their place. There's some good rabbit huntin around there too!

DerekR

Man, that is sweet! I love the slotted headstock. There is nothing better sounding than a really nice Martin, in my opinion. I bet she is a brite one!

DerekR

Very nice! Great idea you had there No7.

DerekR

I appreciate those pictures Salvo. I have read a lot about that but never seen it in person. I can see where it might help with leading.
Is what you pictured the "Basic Chamfering Kit" and how hard is it to use for a shadetree gunsmith??

DerekR

Tell us about those grips Stormspotter. Very nice.

DerekR

I haven't seen this rifle in person, but my one experience with the Accu-trigger made me a believer. I want one of their .22s with the Accu-trigger. I might have to get me one of those Marlins to play with.

DerekR

You guys see anything wrong with a little lithium grease on the bolt body? I have used a little on my 9422 before, but it is MUCH easier to breakdown and clean.

DerekR

Thanks Ben. I'll give that a try.

DerekR

is a bit too heavy and has creep. It is a mid-seventies version with the flat mainspring. Anybody have any home-brew ideas to help it out some? I wish Wolff sold a reduced-power flat spring, but it doesn't look like they do. I wish it had the coil spring as I think they are a little smoother. Thanks...

DerekR

I agree with lining the bore. That is what I would do.

How do you like it?

I'd like to know who made the second holster pictured. That is just what I've been looking for.

DerekR

Thank you sir!

I seem to have lost my link to this site.....can anybody let me know how it is listed? I can't seem to find it.
