This is the FFL dealer welfare program. There is NO law requiring the seller to ship through an FFL. Just what is the seller's FFL going to do other than box up the gun and mail it?

Ask your dealer if HE ever buys guns from a non-FFL. If so, what's the difference?

Looks like the biggest opening would be for a new shotgun. Maybe a nice Remington or Mossberg pump?

And an ear of sweet corn, baked beans, and cole slaw!

THEN, a nap!

He's got a bidder!

I'll just load up with one in the chamber, one in the magazine tube. I got the mold to make up plinkers for my .308 and .300 Savage, but figured I could make up a few .30/30 loads whilst I was at it.

I've been to their last 3 shows and have found the prices to be more reasonable than what can be found in Minnesota, especially for guns in good, solid condition that you would USE versus collect.

I'm planning on going again this November!

I've got a Lee mold for a 160 grain .309 bullet. I'd like to use some of these in my model 94, but thought I'd check to see if the nose on this slug is round enough to prevent a chain fire in the magazine tube. The mold code is C309-160-R Here's a link to the page on the Lee website that shows the m...

Got my Brownell's screwdriver set out. 10 degrees of rotation and the screw and stock are tight. Thanks Griff!

The stock on the Winchester 94 I recently purchased has a tiny bit of front and back play in it. It's solid side to side, but when I picked up the rifle by the buttstock with the muzzle pointed down I could feel the stock slip just a fraction. If it makes any difference the rifle was made in 1979. S...

A NIB Browning 92 in .44 magnum for $349. Bought it about two years ago.

I've got a chance to pick up a clean model 94 in 30.30 for about $325.

Proofhouse.com says the gun was made in 1979. How was Winchester's quality at that time? Anything I should be concerned about?

Thanks!

Had the exact same problem with a Marbles tang sight on my Savage 99. The gentleman who fixed it for me is named Mike Maraccini. He even has a bunch of spare parts. I was referred to him by Marbles themselves when I called their customer service number. Contact him via email at: marblesfix AT charte...

It was a GREAT movie, the wife and I loved it.

I think it's message was less anti-business, and more a cautionary tale about the dangers of overindulgence. And if you think we're not an overindulgent people, go hang out at the mall sometime!

Time for the Illinois DNR to issue a press release saying there's no credible evidence that there are cougars in Illinois, and that even if there were, cougars are reclusive creatures that avoid human contact.

I've got a 99G in .300 Savage as well. Mine has a Marbles automatic tang sight on it.

Accurate shooter, produces sub 2" groups at 100 yards.

A "no reserve" auction no less! That takes guts with a rifle as specialized as this one.

Or a synthetic stock!

With the accessories that's a great price. If you don't want it please send me a PM with the shops contact info.

Sako Finnwolf. Great rifles, extremely high quality. Scarce in .243. In 98%+ condition I'd expect it to run from $1200 to $1500; maybe more.

What did they want for it?

Almost as rare as the rifle is finding a spare magazine.

You can use bullets intended for the .32/40 in J-bored 8mm Mauser cartridges (.318 bore size).

Work your loads up carefully!

Gee, nobody has said Gander Mountain, or Dick's, or even Cabelas!

RANGE REPORT: I fired 16 rds of Greek surplus 30-06 M2 ball through the 1895 this afternoon, and was able to knock over empty yellow Pennzoil bottles at 100 yds pretty much on command. Thanks for all the comments! Noah Beautiful rifle! Make certain to clean up the bore. I've heard rumors that Greek...

I've got the same configuration Lyman 56 on my 1953 model 94, and my 1957 model 71. Both appear to have been on the guns a long time.

IF you decide to remove it, a big mistake IMHO, it will bring good money on eBay!

The Gun Stop on the west edge of the Twin Cities. Great crew and an excellent mixture of new and classic firearms.

Another idea. Do you have some Cerrosafe? That's the chamber casting material Brownells sells. http://www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/store/productdetail.aspx?p=384&st=cerrosafe&s= I'll bet if you blocked the barrel just in front of the case, and then poured Cerrosafe into the chamber and let it c...

Phew! Still a pain, but much better situation than having a live round stuck. Looking at Brownell's Gunsmithing Kinks, they recommend the idea you've already hit upon, putting a .410 cleaning brush on a cleaning rod, and running it into the chamber from the breach end, and then pulling it out. Of co...

Just to be PERFECTLY clear, your rifle has a LIVE round part ways chambered that cannot be fully chambered or extracted?

I've got a Winchester 94 with one of the Uncle Mike's sling adapters on it, and the front swivel base is clamped to the mag tube just forward of the forearm.

Should I move it to just behind the front barrel band?

To all of you wolf supporters, I hope that the government reintroduces all of the species that have been eliminated in YOUR states over the last 200 years. I'm sorry to tell you, but the pristine wilderness where prey and predators lived in balance is gone. How about reintroducing the grizzly to sou...

It's been a lot of years since I took business law, but I do recall something about a good faith buyer getting a good title to goods purchased from a seller who is engaged in their ordinary course of business.

Doesn't seem right, but that's what I remember.

Thanks to all who responded - especially those kind souls who were willing to "adopt" this poor Lyman. Loosening the locking knob and then elevating the staff until the base screws were accessible did the trick. I got the oil-turned-varnish cleaned off the receiver and the sight, gave ever...

I recently acquired an nice old Winchester 94 that has a Lyman 56 receiver sight mounted. The sight and the area of the receiver around the base are a bit grungy, and I'd like to remove the sight and give everything a thorough cleaning. Does anyone know how I remove the sight elevation staff from th...
