AK-47,

Everyone should own at least one.

Your positon as a liberal aligns you with those who threaten an inalienable right we here take very seriously. Personally, I think OI said it best in another post. Your inalienable right is solely defined by your willingness to kill those who come to take your guns. Funny, I thought that was exactl...

OD had a reeally good poem that went something like "thou shalt not modify the 1911..." and then elaborates on all the "shall nots".

To whit, do you believe in the 2nd Amendment as refering to all guns, or just "some guns". Some guns. In other words, do you believe military type weapons do not belong in the hands of civilians? Some do not. Do you believe in any form of "gun control"? Yes. What I figured.

Bullets, Primers, Powder?

I'm trying to hoard as much as I can now as prices are only going to go up and I'm curious to know what the rest of the leverguns brethren are stocking.

Probably not the most prudent line of questioning.

Some of the nastiest posts have come from the religious folks. Mostly not youngsters (well none, really, as far as I could tell). Of course Christians are sinners too, well, at least the ones that dont get translated. Our fortune is having those sins forgiven. The real problem is some peoples sins ...

Built a house for a guy, and part of the final payment was a 94 big bore AE deluxe model. I googled 444 and some articles by Al Anderson popped up, which were being hosted at the old Leverguns at that time. Some of you may remember some of the work done with the 444 and other cartridges by Al. That ...

but I know almost nothing about junior. I don't recall anything firearms related about Junior. Junior used to contribute a lot of woodlore and frugal firearms mods to this forum. IOW something of value beyond ignorant rhetoric concerning his politics. Nothing wrong with a civil disagreement among b...

I like Junior and appreciate his knowledge. But I gotta say one of his favorite tricks was to post outrageous political propositions that he knew would blow up like a keg of black powder. I think he thought it was fun. I sure did, and I took the bait every time. I can't give a man who insults half ...

Seems I recall you were among the members of the unofficial Leverguns 1911 forum. :lol: Ah, yes. That was good fun. It was a hotspot that kinda took over the board for a good while.

[I hadn't been a member of this forum for very long when Junior left........

Some say Junior ducked out to avoid barbs from some of the less tolerant jacka$$es that seemed to show up after we moved over from the old board. I don't know if that's true, or not. It may be. But, Junior has pretty thick skin and I imagine really couldn't care less what people think of his views....

Junior was being attacked on this forum and so he stopped posting. A shame. I've seen that in the recent past, and even gave a couple verbal slaps for it, usually from newbies who dont know that Junior's been around since I joined the original Leverguns, somewhere around 03. With the loss of post c...

Saw a mention of a couple folks missing Junior. I haven't seen him post in awhile, whats up? Also haven't seen Ol Dan post. I sincerely hope all is well with both of them. I count very few Liberals as a friend, but Junior is one of them. I think he bumped his head somewhere, but I really like the fe...

Well, in general a pistol is not a substitute for a rifle, and a fist is not a substitute for a pistol (I'm not sure what the means, but I like the sound of it :lol: ). I sometimes carry a compact due to clothing restrictions. Lets face it, if it were socially acceptable to carry a rifle everywhere,...

Two things otteray. First, Bushy is generally accepted in the firearms world as refering to Bushmaster firearms, so when I saw the post I expected it to be about a new scope Bushmaster was marketing.

Second, it's defective if you can't see the green, so send it back/return to seller etc.

I would never have sold a BR, especially an M1A, and especially a match. May not use it now, but try buying one in 3 years. You will still be able to buy a breech loader in 10 years. I would discourage anyone from following this example. wasn't looking for opinions on what I shouldn't have done. I ...

I could get along with 2 powders, just thought I'd try for one first.

Hobie, I'm with you, and I dont foresee this as being a running fight sort of thing, more of a take what you can with you to a remote residence for long term vacation.

"Hey Dog, if the LL wasn't made for use reloading for leverguns, why did they make it in 30-30?" Thompson/Contenders? And Savage/Stevens used to make a sweet little bolt action .30-30. I'd have several if they made it in a lefty. Single shots. Although the .30-30 is most associated with t...

So, we've been having this discussion about Lee Dippers and the Loaders and Hand Presses, which got me to thinking about putting together my portable reloading kit that I've been gathering together and ny thoughts go to powder. It seems I recall Paco at one time saying he had used 2400 for everythin...

PAY ATTENTION to the way he uses the LEE Dipper. Pushes it down (bottom first) into the powder and lets the powder flow over the rim of the dipper. Since reading this article, I have used this method of dipping and IT IS ACCURATE and CONSISTENT. . That right there is exactly the method taught to me...

Wanted to ask a question of those of you with experience with the Lee Loader. I bought one to fool around loading a buddy's .30-06 cause I hate seeing that nice brass go to waste. But it's a Remington pump rifle and I've heard that the Loader isn't to be used with leverguns and pumpguns. And yet it...

No biggie, but just curious how yours will compare to the one I have made, in performance. Barnes bullets have a reputation for being consistent performers at various velocities. I've seen them in comparison tests with other manufacturers, and the only other bullet that is as consistent is the Nosl...

I can tell you that a Barnes 180gr from a 300 WM will go through both sides of an elk at 400 yrds leaving a nickel sized hole on the off side, bullet unrecovered, elk walked 10 feet. No fragments in meat. What do you suppose the velocity of the bullet was at that point? Looking at the Rem ballistic...

I love Lee Loaders. You might try looking over on castbullet.com and see some of Junior's writings on them. You might want to try and vary your method of loading the dipper some. I pour my 3031 into a Corel coffee cup that has a round bottom. Once through with the dipper and tap it twice with my in...

Ken I think at this point what we have is a 93 in 32 Spcl misidentified as a 94 due to the square bolt. Hope MM93 shows up soon to square us away, as it were.

If you already have say a 45-70, get the 35. If you can borrow some cash, buy both since as some have said, those older 444's are hard to find.

Also Ken, I have no idea on the sights. Major deal or no?

If everything but the wood & spring is there I'd probubly jump on it. If the bores good I'd definately get it. Hell I'd probably buy it anyway regardless. Are the sights there? Woods available & Wisners will sell you all the mainsprings you want. Thats what I figured Ken. Seems I recall you...

Hobie, do you have a link on those 93 32 Spcls? Did the Leverguns archive of old levers make it over here?

Right. I think the confusion comes from the square bolt. So were the 1893's in fact produced in 32 Spcl?

No problem Hobie, just razzin as I fugured it was you, except it kicked the need for ID off the title, which I was hoping to draw in MM93 with.

I'm sure it'll work out either way.
