I was thinking Hepburn was still at Remington when the 1888 was designed, but obviously he wasn't. It's possible he was moonlighting with Marlin and made the switch when Marlin decided to go with his repeater. Did Remington ever try a lever action repeater? Maybe Hepburn had this idea which just di...

That's the first straight stock No.1 conversion I've seen. I like it. Excellent cartridge, too.

LL Hepburn had nothing to do with the Model 1888 Marlins. He didn't start designing Marlin lever guns until the next year model the 1889. Hepburn patented the 1888 action in 1887 and assigned it to Marlin. The patent shows the top eject. In the photo Shrapnel gives, compare the trigger guard and lo...

Oh, that's nice. I think them the best looking of the Hepburn lever actions, just inching out the 1894. How well does it cycle? I once came across a YouTube video of a gent running his. Chambering wasn't reliable, and I've wondered if there was a design problem, or if something was simply worn in hi...

I've recently acquired my first 1873 Winchester, one which had been reworked by Turnbull about 15 years ago. I'm surprised how heavy is the hammer pull, and that in turn makes for an action very stiff to open. Is this a consequence of the huge firing pin on these, or can the mainspring be lightened ...

You see nothing because it's not there. However, in their craving to have a far more expansive central government, the progressives a century ago twisted the commerce clause into allowing the federal government to regulate business activity within the states. As part of the dissent, the justices not...

While the Supremes made the correct call, the debate is far from over. A majority of Americans support abortion in the first trimester. It takes the petition of only 2/3 of the state legislatures to open a convention to debate the issue (and any others they care to at that time) and then a vote of 3...

3. We lost control over where the antigen would be presented in the body. With normal vaccines we give the antigen and it goes from subcutaneous or muscle tissue through the lymph system and predominantly winds up in the nearest lymph nodes to be processed by the immune system. That is one way norm...

So regardless of where one stands on the overall issue of vaccines, or mRNA vaccines in particular, I think it's reasonable to say we still have much to learn, and need to quit sweeping things under the rug. Thanks for the update. Given the anti-vax hysteria around the web, I largely stopped follow...

Ah, while rare, that is a recognized risk with the J&J and A-Z vaccines. Multiple events over a year is a new one to me, but having taken Moderna, I didn't follow the J&J news. Sorry to hear about your woes.

KWK

Spike protein seems to be produced off and on for a LONG time after vaccination in many people. Evidently the mRNA can be sequestered and read later. Plus it penetrates into tissues most 'vaccines' wouldn't enter, so the antigen (spike protein) gets expressed in places where the body isn't prepared...

I was able to find the reports you requested. This one would take a while to go through, for it references over 20 previously published studies on vaccine risks. Here is the summary I saw yesterday: One study, an analysis of 22 previous studies, found that the risk of the conditions including myocar...

Today's news includes a report that while deaths from heart disease rose in 2020 (before the vaccines were available), it declined in 2021 (after the vaccines were given). Deaths from strokes rose in 2020 and in 2021 but much less in 2021 (after the vaccines). Odd that.

I knew a very health man 30 years old that died the next morning of a heart attack. hell of a coincidence You say heart attack.

Titanium isn't much stronger than the better steels, but it is less stiff. Made to the same dimensions, a titanium part will deflect nearly twice as much as the steel part. It won't break, but it will spring.

Cute, but that combustion and expansion chamber has to lose a lot of heat, just like a Wankel.

I don’t recall what the manual said regarding +P rounds. However, it’s made in Italy, and the CIP pressure rating for the 38 exceeds SAAMI’s +P value.

I’ve had to send a rifle to Ruger. It took two trips, but they got it right eventually. Soft steels and misaligned ejector rods are another issue.

KWK

The others here had better luck than me. We got a Stallion in 38 about 3 or 4 years ago. I sold it within a half year; it was junk. As designed, the ejector rod didn't line up with the cylinder centers and bound up on the empty cases. It wasn't full stroke regardless. After only a few dozen rounds, ...
