From my personal experience some medications can cause trembling.

I've had the flu shots, the shingles shots, the covid shots and the pneumonia shots, therefore I shouldn't get sick, right? But I did. My granddaughter caught it from somewhere and she never leaves the house, I caught it from her and was very sick for about 10 days or so. Then just as I was getting ...

Especially on the internet. It's gotten so bad that I just don't trust anyone or anything anymore. I got sucked into a scam on one of the well known firearms review websites but I'm not ready to reveal who they are just yet because I'm hoping they will make it right without litigation but it's looki...

I have the same problem, if there's any background noise at all it makes it hard to understand what someone is saying when they talk to me. Without hearing aids I'm considered profoundly deaf but with hearing aids, the cheap ones for $1,000 each it brings me up to 80%. I was just recently retested ...

Maybe I'm an old fuddy duddy but I don't care for gifts. I have a bunch of gifts that I have never opened because I have no need or want for them. I think I may regift them just to get rid of them. If I want or need anything I'll get it myself, otherwise I already have it or don't need it. But a car...

I have the Star BKM, same as the BM only with an aluminum frame instead of steel.
I bought it to compliment my Star PD's, all of which are excellent firearms.

It would be the one I have.

Why thank you guys.
It will be another year before I have another one. Ha, ha, ha.

I have a like new GI, M1, 30 caliber carbine with all of the accesories to which I added a picatunny rail in place of the upper handguard and a very wide view red dot sight. It has functioned perfectly for me and I have been using Hornady, Critical Defence ammo and my own hand loads. It is a most h...

Aw yes. Jack London's "Call of the wild" I remember it well.

flightsimmer

Yes, I have one as well. It is superb in every way.
Point of aim and point of impact are perfect.

Bears got to eat too and feed their family The problem is there's a shortage of food for them if they had a feeding station way out away from the populated area like they do for deer they would go there instead of around the houses looking for food.

I got gas today, Monday 6-24-24 and it only cost me $2.94 a gallon at Indy.

I have a Steven's/Savage single shot 22 long rifle, it has a lever
to work the action. It's a model 1915 number 24. It was missing the firing pin so I made one up to replace it out of bar stock and made a spare to put in the butstock in case it ever broke again works great looks good too.

I ran across a YouTube video on testing 22lr ammo. I don't have a link but it shouldn't be hard to find. I'll look for it and try to post a link later today. I think this is it. https://youtu.be/uMjjWdPcnXA?si=ymtGnsnNL3fLaFMB It was almost over my head but I got the jist of it. The guy was digging ...

My father-in-law worked as a security guard in his retirement years and when he passed away I ended up with his blued 4-in Smith & Wesson model 10 thin barrel revolver. I took it to the range to try it out and I don't remember what the yardage was but when I went and picked up the Target all the...

flightsimmer

It's nice to get one that's perfect in every way, but I just love taking them apart and cleaning and dressing them up, deburing where needed , changing springs with Wolff springs, touching up the bluing and anything else I find. It kind of makes them mine in a personal kind of way. Besides, I've got...

I've got a MecTech in 10 mm also and it's deadly accurate.

Out of all of my many choices and I do mean many, I have settled on my S&W 642 for a pocket carry gun. It never gets in my way but it's always there. During cooler weather when I am wearing a "T" shirt under my regular shirt I carry it in a Steve McQueen "Bullet movie" should...

A song that hit me right square in the heart last week. "Lord I've never been this homesick before" Verse #1 There's a light in the window The table spread in splendor. Someone standing by the open door. I can see a crystal river and I must be near forever. Lord I've never been this homesi...

I just got through reading a piece on the world debt of all the countries around the globe and it points out that China is taking over the world financially causing other countries to go deep into debt. Well it's not exactly China's fault it's the country's that borrow the money from them just like ...

I have a 4-3/4" EMF Hartford in 45 Colt caliber. I feel like it is perfection of the breed in every way. I don't remember the exact specifications now but the cylinder throats were much larger than the grove in the barrel. It bothered me enough for me to try to locate a cylinder with smaller th...

flightsimmer

My 5" Schofield in 45 Colt shot left also, but it was too far for a simple fix like that one that you have. It was an intriguing piece of craftsmanship but it didn't fit my hand very well and I ended up selling it.

flightsimmer

I had one as an early teenager, bought it through the mail from a magazine ad ammo and all with my paper route money.
Neat carbine, wish I still had it. Boy how times have changed.

flightsimmer

Oh good heavens wait till you get to 80.

flightsimmer

Yeah, today I reached the big 80, it's all downhill from here.

flightsimmer

Why not just reduce your loads or shoot 44 special?

flightsimmer

Well, I think that's where the problem is, it's not getting a good hook on the case. Maybe need to contact a local gunsmith and see what he thinks. Perhaps contact Winchester also.

flightsimmer

It looks to me like the factory installed an extractor intended for the side eject model not the angle eject.

flightsimmer

Just curious, does the parts catalog list more than one part number for the extractor? That is, different extractors for different calibers.

To me, it looks like the extractor claw is made at the wrong angle, it should be perpendicular to the case, not turned so that only the edge catches the case.

I have a newer Daisy model 25, pump action. Daisy sent me 3 extra barrels and a bunch of bb's because ?????? Anyway, I tested all 4 barrels and found the most accurate one. I can often hit a bottle cap at 30 yards with it. I like the pump action because I don't have lower the rifle for follow up sho...

I've got a large piece of coal from that mine sitting on my desk as a momento of the week we stayed there.
Had a great time.

Reading those old magazines sure brings back happy memories but those old prices make me want to cry... :cry: Thanks for sharing. 8) You've got to remember that the value of the object (in this case a gun) has not changed one bit, it's the value of the dollar that has fallen.

Oh, you won't find them in a gun store, you have to order them from a Uberti or a Uberti dealer, that's why their rare.

I bought one new in 38 Special with a 3-1/2" barrel, it's an exact copy of my full sized model P in 45 Colt. I wear it cross draw and the full sized one on my right hip. I bought a bird's head grip frame and wood grip and fitted it to the revolver so now I can have it both ways. I got pictures ...

flightsimmer

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Going to Kentucky today to wander the Daniel Boone National Forest.

flightsimmer

I've got one in 38 special, 4-3/4" barrel. I also have the birds head grip in addition to the standard plow handle.
It's a fun gun and is easier to handle for me. I carry it in a cross draw holster on a replica John Wayne money belt along with the full sized model P, SAA in 45 Colt.

flightsimmer

So, as Paul Harvey would say, what is the rest of the story?

Any damage? Oh, I see, it pushed the firing pin out of the frame. You think it can be fixed or is the frame damaged?

The first of 100 things to do before you die is accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, the rest will fall into line.

A friend of mine once showed me a 1918 45ACP Colt revolver that had a bulged barrel, I removed the barrel and proceeded to remove the stuck bullet.
Turned out there were 3 or 4 bullets stuck in the bore.
I got a used barrel from Numeric Arms and got it back in working order.
