Did you intend for this to be posted in the classifieds? Perhaps?

O.S.O.K.

Well, that bullet should provide a long enough cartridge length if it's got a near-standard exposed length. They do need to be within a certain size of "standard" - each 94 is a little different but in general, they need to be in that "slot". Best thing to do is make a couple of ...

O.S.O.K.

That looks like an Oklahoma Leather holster? Or COWS? Decent holsters.

O.S.O.K.

Accelerators actually used a sabot with .22 caliber bullets IIRC. Very fast.

I would also suggest some good cast boolits at slower speeds over a case full of IMR Trail Boss.

O.S.O.K.

What?

I won't get any discounts... my tinnitus is caused by chronic ear infections as a child and my choice to be a competitive swimmer for 11 years - not to mention a few un protected shooting sessions and liking loud music....

O.S.O.K.

I like it!

O.S.O.K.

Thanks again - he's still doing well. They found him "wandering" in nearby small town. No owners claimed him in three weeks, so might be a drop-off. We had a bunch of those when we lived in the country. As to "what" he is - it would be interesting to know but not necessary. He do...

O.S.O.K.

Thanks guys. Even better part of the story = this guy was totally free as the shelter doesn't charge the usual adoption fee for their feature dogs. We've given plenty to this shelter though - both of my boys did their Eagle projects at this shelter - an adoption yard (fenced-in area with bench for p...

O.S.O.K.

I just want to say that Marlin has been making leverguns for a rimless cartridge for a long time with no troubles at all - 35 Remington... so I don't see why a 10mm M94 would be any big trick for them. I think they'd be shocked by the interst in them - maybe we need to start lobbying Lipsey's.. they...

O.S.O.K.

We've been talking about getting a couple of pups for the new place - since it'll be in the country and I travel... we want a couple of good sized dogs to keep the wife company. Well, we got the free paper on Friday and they had a feature pound puppy in there (these are usually the ones that need a ...

O.S.O.K.

Well, if they perform like that at that velocity, then I would suspect they'd do just fine at 1600 fps from a standard .357 Mag in a Marlin with 18"... - probably expand less but penetrate a bit more... and I'd stay at 100 yards and in with it. Regardless, I think that you are detailing an &quo...

Here's a link to a gunbroker search - note the asking prices... http://www.gunbroker.com/All/BI.aspx?Keywords=Browning+92 Generally I don't put stock in asking prices - only in prices of auctions with bids... but when they'r all over a certain amount... that does tell you something. Your carbine wou...

O.S.O.K.

Lookin good! Nice wood! Congrats!

O.S.O.K.

Ooh, I do like that. However, for 1/4 the price, I'm very happy with my G20 with 6" Storm Lake barrel.

O.S.O.K.

Love my G20SF!

And besides being a better combat round, it also is more versitile in the hunting field.

Its really about the maximum practical power for an autoloader.

Yes, you can get Dessert Eagle and such but those really are beasts. The G20 is light and handy for open carry.

O.S.O.K.

Nice! Thanks for the posting!

Look forward to seeing more - results.

O.S.O.K.

Rifles.... rifles. Not polyticks :D Some rifles can't really be found in a "utilitarian" or "budget" guise. My Winny 1895 (Miroku) in 405 Win is an example of that. If you want an 1895 or clone, it's going to be a Winchester as that's all that there is. To my knowledge. And that'...

O.S.O.K.

I'd just stick with standard loads. One of my favorite is a 250 grain Laser Cast rnfp over 7.0 grains of W231 in a Win Case with WLP primers - 800 fps from a revolver and 1000 fps from my Marlin 94 Cowboy with 24" barrel.

Congrats! Cool carbine!

O.S.O.K.

Does it look like this?

That's the one I bought one of the guys that works for me - for a "bonus" - he did a great job in 2011. He almost cried when I gave it to him

O.S.O.K.

Wow. This is one of those "depends" questions. No, not the adult diaper - the situtuation. :P For carry, I prefer a smallish single-stack auto. My personal choices are both 9mm but could just as easily be 40 S&W - at least one could. The Kahr 9 is a great carry piece. Mine is older and...

O.S.O.K.

That complete rig as shown cost lest than $400. Hard to beat. And I dare say that It does the exact same thing as rifles costing twice and three times as much. How many rifles really shoot under MOA? And if they do - for big game especially, what difference does that accuracy make in the field? Very...

O.S.O.K.

Yes, this is a blatant copy cat thread of the 'scopes' thread. Just thought it better to start a new one than to threadjack the scope thread. That thread basically is a discussion about the cost/quality of scopes. This is the same -only about hunting rifles. I submit to the board that we have come t...

O.S.O.K.

Yep - nice! Well done. I don't have enough flow from my springs to operate one...

O.S.O.K.

Steve makes a very good point (as usual) - though not the thread topic or question, he is absolutley correct that you should be sure that you are "shooting straight" so to speak. With a new gun, I tend to find myself sending them to the left a bit and then when I focus and pay attention to...

O.S.O.K.

I made the mistake of letting my wife sell my bench and weight set prior to our move into this rental house.... after I get to Mississippi, I'm getting another set up.

O.S.O.K.

In that situation, I would've tried to heat the frame a bit where the barrel screws in - not a lot - not enough to remove temper, just to 200 degrees or so to get it to swell a little and allow the barrel to turn.

O.S.O.K.

Wow Joe. That levergun is getting some milage!! That's great. It doesn't seem that long ago that it's first user was on que

There's something called "context"

O.S.O.K.

Communication break down...

Cool. My how times have changed. Those remind me of the pictures of my Dad and my wife's folks in Iowa during the same time period.

Thanks for sharing those!!

Well, if things go really south in the near future (economic depression) as I expect they will at some point, then most of this will become a moot point. The "authorities" simply won't have the resources to bother people any more. A shot bear will simply be considered fresh meat and any JB...

O.S.O.K.

Everybody has their "standards" and this includes scopes. I personally have settled on the medium to even what many would consider inexpensive scopes for general hunting. My Nikon prostaff scopes have never let me down. I've never had them fail or missed a shot because of the scope. Ditto ...

O.S.O.K.

Just another symptom of a government that's completely out of control and overgrown.

We really do need a reform that includes the elimination of 80% of the existing agencies in this country - starting with the BATFE and EPA, but also the IRS and NEA.

O.S.O.K.

I make it a point to shoot some standard .223 after using the .22LR conversion unit in mine. The idea is that this will blow out the gas tube.... I don't know if it does or not, but so far so good

Oh, and congrats Mike on your purchase!! Nice rig.

O.S.O.K.

Something about a lawman that totes a SA that just seems right to me. Makes me feel even more respectful of him than I am anyway. Many around here do - but it's a SA 1911... still nice to see IMHO.

To me it sends the message "when I have to shoot, it won't take many rounds..."

O.S.O.K.

Prayers up. Wishes for a speedy recovery.

Oh, it can get quite cold for a few days - 20's isn't uncommon but then it warms up. I don't think it ever gets a frost line below the surface for any depth... torrential rains are more the worry.

O.S.O.K.

I thought that Wyoming was a free state? Sounds like the WFGC needs to be reminded about the Constitution.... And I don't get why a Game Warden can just totally ignore the Constitution - they are allowed to do just that all over the country. They can come onto your property any time they want, do i...

O.S.O.K.

Yes. The secret's out - I'm actually building this on Mars down in a sealed cavern with solar windows up top to allow for the lighting. Looks exactly like Mississippi :lol: The French drain is just one or two drainage tiles run around the perimeter of the foundation with gravel placed over them and ...

O.S.O.K.

Shrapnel, I hate to point this out, but I was following your buddy's advice from an article in Handloader :P I would've rather had a proper barrel vice but the above described method worked just fine -the barrels weren't very hard to turn and so the pressure applied to the frame via the hickory wasn...

O.S.O.K.

Indeed it is. I have two old Vaqueros that I zero'd with my chosen load (250 grain Laser Cast rnfp over 7.0 grains of W231, WLP primers in Win cases) - you remove the cyliner and cylinder pin. Then remove the ejector rod housing and ejector rod/spring. Clamp the barrel in a vice - using a barrel cla...

There's a post on here about the rocket stove. It's very cool - slow to heat up and I guess you can get a lot of "back smoke" when trying to get it lit, but it is very efficient and burns most all of the wood down to mostly steam being put-out...

O.S.O.K.

Yes, he likes to do that

I'll keep posting as things progress.

O.S.O.K.

I'm not really sold on the piston driven AR. The gas impingement models (standard AR) are more accurate and very reliable.

Buy a standard AR of your choice and a good quality AKM as a back up.

O.S.O.K.

Thanks

Hope you get back to work soon!!

O.S.O.K.

We looked at those and their competitors and a lot of other products too! There's a new product that's made of fiberglass - sections that you put up modularly. What you are seeing in the photo's is the back and side wall forms. They are going to be concrete - yes, 9" thick. The front and other ...

O.S.O.K.

More great pics Shrapnel! I sure wish that Marlin would chamber their 336 Cowboy in this caliber - 24" octagonal barrel would be great. That's one I'd snap up if they'd offer it. Always wanted a 25-35 Winny.

O.S.O.K.

Thanks.
