Very nice!

Congratulations Scott. I am a firm believer that good things come to people that make the conscious decision to do right and follow their heart. As a minimum you and your wife will feel better knowing you can fully commit to this partnership.

Happy Birthday Kirk. Definitely miss a lot of the old timers that used to hang out here.

It is so sad to see the lack of values in people that we think we know and have similar values. I have deal with a similar issue like this as well recently. Prayers sent that you can navigate this obstacle wisely. Regardless of the outcome, I think you are a man of good character and will make the r...

I like Titebond wood glue. It is cheaper than the gorilla glue that you find and most all of it dries completely clear. It has different strength levels too.

Both are very nice Scott, I especially love the pair of Ruger .44s.

Back in the 90s I went up in the mountains of California on a fishing trip with my platoon sergeant. He assured me we were going after a rare fish that was only found in that region. After we caught our first I swore to him that I had seen that fish before but we didnt call it by the name he had men...

Most bullet co. that I have worked with recommend the .311 casting for 30-30 Marlin with microgroove to ensure you fill the grooves. I am sure the .357 probably will prefer an extra thousands or two for their bore size.

Is the choke still stuck? Try sticking it muzzle down into a container and soak it in acetone. If it's just stuck from plastic wad build up it should loosen up. But if it's over torqued you are screwed. If you can't remove a choke tube with your fingers it's too tight! And always lube the threads! ...

Several years back I picked up a pawnshop find REM 870 with a 28" barrel and a stuck Modified Choke. It has the cheap black coating and had surface rust freckling all over it. Cleaned the gun and barrel up with steel wool and rust and bluing remover and bought some Flat Black Krylon Grill Paint...

Not sure what gun you are shooting these in, but if it is rated for +P you can go up to 6.2 grains.

It looks like Winchester has updated their website for reloading data. I sent them an email about 6 months ago telling them that W244 has been out a while and there should be more load data available. They still need to get some CAT II or III Load Data for .44 Special but I doubt that will happen.

I got to meet/shake hands with Roy Rogers at his museum in Victorville, CA back around 97, about 1 year before he died.

I was stationed in Egypt back in 1986 and we frequently went into Israel for supplies. We had a truck that was hauling soda that went over on it's side just near the Rafa right outside the Gaza Strip. Anyway, the Army decided they needed to put a bunch of us out there to guard the load until it coul...

I recently tried to order a Mercury 25 hp outboard from Cabelas and Basspro both trying to take advantage of an advertised rebate. I called 3 times over a period of about a month and was never able to get the motor that I wanted. They constantly tried to push a motor that cost about $1200 more.

I still have a little Unique left and typically load a 240 grn LSWCHP at 7.0 grains. I have also been working with W244 which sits right next to Unique on the burn chart. I have pushed it up to 7.0 as well.

There is a pretty cool museum down in Columbus, NM, (the town raided by Poncho Villa). It has the 1st US airplane to be used in warfare during the Punitive Expedition. Also had lots of cool relics and guns.

I shot a deer with the 94 Trapper with the large loop. I found the loop had too much slop for my hands for working the lever and didnt care for the 16" barrel, it threw off the sights for me and made me shoot higher than I thought my point of aim was if I recall correctly. I prefer a standard c...

horsesoldier03

WOW, that was some impressive luck. You must be living right!

The Army has been talking about changing rifles since early 2000s, almost as long as they have been talking about changing their Physical Fitness Program. I honestly suspect they will come out with yet another camo pattern for their uniforms before they ever fix their Fitness Program or push a stand...

The Lacy Act prohibits the sale of wild game. I am guessing that with AXIS Deer being listed as an Invasive Species is how they work around it. Also I would expect that they are not indigenous to Hawaii and would fall more into the exotic game category. Personally, I do not see an issue with it bein...

Just because I am kind of slow at times, curious if your Georgia is a State or a Country? Welcome all the same!

Just received those Altamont stocks I ordered a month or two back, and I am quite pleased with the fit and feel compared to the black plastic OEM stock on the Super Wrangler. Now if the wind will just lie down I 'll go shoot the thing. 8) https://i.postimg.cc/8F4ky61H/image-67204097-2.jpg https://i...

Jay,

Those grips do really dress up the gun and those speedloaders are just plain snazzy. Very Nice!

horsesoldier03

Sorry to hear about your situation. Prayers up for a full restoration and safety for your family.

horsesoldier03

Man, that is a good question. I really enjoy my 5.5" Bisley flattop Blackhawk in .44spl. That said, I love 45 Colt more than 44 special so I would pick my Blackhawk 45 that I am currently in the process of building. It has been a great revolver for many years and now with its new face lift I g...

Hey, Horsesoldier, that Jeff Ault is a mighty fine shooter. Great looking gun, too! Thanks for the picture. Jeff is indeed a fine shot. I have come close but I have not obtained that group. The smooth action on it is even better than the group. If anyone is ever on the fence about sending him a gun...

horsesoldier03

The only Blackhawk I have. It was nothing impressive when I got it, but we got that fixed so I will let it slide.

horsesoldier03

Scott, I think S&W definitely improved the M19 when they came out with the fixed sight L frames. If I didnt have one of those, I think the M19 would be my preference.

My Dad bought a Marlin 1894 .44 mag from an older man at First Monday in Canton TX back in the early 90s for $125. It came with the first box of shells he bought for it with only 3 missing, the recoil was too much for him. After my dad shot it, he gave it to me, he shot it twice. Definitely one gun ...

He may have been friends with Bill and Killary and was coaxed by the left to exploit gun laws so that they could justify closing the "Loop Hole" as they like to call it. Now that's some real conspiracy stuff right there! And they certainly don't have to worry about him rattin' out their p...

When you go to the hodgdon site, WSF does not even show as an option for any weight of .44 Special Bullet. I prefer to use W244 as it sits right next to Unique on the Powder Burn Rate Chart. That is only because I have not seen another can of Unique since I bought my last one.

horsesoldier03

No doubt it will beat the hell out of a .380 or even a .38 special with the average commercial loaded bullet.

horsesoldier03

Well we always seem to have the self appointed grammar police. Before the internet we were all apparently all ignorant. I dont even care is someone calls a magazine a clip. If we both know the type of weapon they are talking about, we get the meaning.

horsesoldier03

Glad she is ok. Did it even throw a breaker?

horsesoldier03

My dad passed back in 07. Following his death, I ensured my mother had my S&W 19 loaded with .38 LSWCHP. We went to the river and practiced quite a bit and made sure that she was proficient. She is now 83 and I was worried about her being able to manage the pistol so I picked her up a Ruger 10/2...

horsesoldier03

A great man to be remembered. Sorry for your loss!

I found this article interesting. Complaints of 3 other negligent discharges on the set that were blanks but actor was told that the guns were not loaded at all. The Unionized Camera crews walked out 6 hours before the shooting occurred due to complaints of safety. https://www.latimes.com/entertainm...

Reed, the armor, is the one that brought a box of live ammo to the set.

Years ago when I was involved in reenactments, they held required safety briefs. One of the cardinal rules as that you never point the gun directly at someone. You elevate or aim to the side of them. I am sure even Hollywood would have rules in place that would have prevented this.

horsesoldier03

Competence is not a genetic trait! I doubt the round was swapped out after the armor handed the gun to Baldwin, however, Baldwin should be ultimately accountable. I did read an interesting point that stated Baldwin had gone off script as it was not in the script that Baldwin would point the gun at t...

No pic to post, but I purchased a rusted old REM 870 at a pawn shop for $100. It was just surface rust nothing a little 0000 steel wool and some oil wouldnt get rid of. It had a 28" barrel with a MOD Choke tube stuck in it. I went on EBAY and was able to get a NICE Remington 20" barrel wit...

Somehow, and I am not certain how that was, I had convinced myself I did not need a 300 BO. I am starting to doubt myself! +1... And as long as I have a .30-30, I probably won't. I am about to pick up the 30-30 that my dad had when I was growing up. It will keep me more than satisfied without feeli...
