Had a ground squirrel run into the sidewall of my tire when I was driving by not a mark on it, no blood just dead.Went to look because I saw it in the mirror but felt no impact.Thought he had missed me.

Duracoat I think just cures over time (72 hours?). Been looking too,trying to clean up a much abused No4mk1 enfield,very little paint left on it and surface rust.Forearm curved to one side. Was kind of wondering about the Gas Barbecue for bake on stuff-might get in a whole lot of trouble trying that...

I gave a friend one of those.He had nothing but good things to say about it.When he and the family go hunting he gets the butchering duties.Now if I could blood mine......

model55

Best of luck to you,had it done twice now but it is still one strange experience!

model55

Have one as well-would like to lighten the wood finish as well ( very dark ) and get a better tang sight.Currently has a lyman no 2.All the talk about the trapper lenght ones has me lusting for another one.

model55

I'm thinking 7mm mausers at about 20 short paces.Maybe 175 grain bullets.

model55

Maybe that's what they did to politicians back in the day before they started just sending them north!

model55

Don't know about the hunts but the medford store is one of my must stop at places when I go to Grants Pass. I leave a little drool on the glass case acrossed from the gun counter every time because they have had some great looking sharps rifles there.

model55

Welcome by the way see it's your first post-stick around this is a very good forum!Someone will be along to straighten us both out on this soon.

model55

I may be completely wrong so this is just my .02 but I think pistol grip blr's were all aluminum.The bolt locks into the barrel not the receiver if that is part of what you are wondering about.Been awhile mine is growing dust in the safe

model55

I hear you loud and clear it is amazing how much we are comforted by our pets never thought it so till the last couple years. Still miss my Lab but not going to get another till I'm retired.Time will tell when you are ready for another then one will be there for you. Wish you well.

model55

thanks for clearing that up El Chivo makes more sense.In that situation though I'd tend to be less concerned about the ammo just speaking for myself because all this time I've been putting away surplus ammo instead of reloading

model55

I know that in the central coast we have at least one warden who is infamous and would if his rep is to be believed write that up in a heart beat. Why chance it-you would be left to prove it over the warden's report-not a good thing.

model55

copper bullets!Not being able to hunt criminals/politicians.

model55

Just traded into a Northwest Trade rifle in .62 cal/20 gauge-if its not a .50 cal or inline around here very few people seem to know much about them let alone stock anything for them.I'm thinking a .60 cal round ball patched.ffg maybe.No clue when it comes to shot loading.

model55

That would have to be that fluid they make you drink the the night before a colonoscopy.Then there was the Taco Bell on the way up to hunt the B-zone just south of the Oregon border-had more gas then the car for three days running ................should have know something was up when the gal behind...

model55

Was wondering if anyone had a good suggestion on where to get some sights for this or some that would atleast be appropriate to the rifle.Rifle was original equipped with Rocky mountain sights I believe but now has a winchester 1876 rear ladder sight and only the base for the front which I'm crudely...

model55

When I used to hunt the first few deer I got were aged at the butchers then I thought they were coming back a little light in weight so I did my own.Once I started doing the cutting they were aged about as fast I could get them in a frying pan-couldn't tell a difference-but it's been years and the m...

Do you ever have any problem with the snap wearing on the gun.Have one of those for a 5 and 1/2 inch.Doesn't seem to be a problem but I wondered.Like that belt as well. Amazing what people will let go for cheap think I paid 5 for mine but it needs some stitch work.

model55

ditto on old weavers if they have a good price they come home!Have a 6x in the box collecting dust but have plans of putting on a 257 when I get around to it

model55

+1 J Reed.Besides would seem a bit odd loading a 444 or 450 Marlin with ffg!

model55

One of the reasons I liked to get off the logging roads and into the woods alone.Also like sitting for extended periods once I find a spot that appeals to me-if someone else is along they want to talk,smoke and so on.........Usually if I keep in mind where the sun is I am good for making my way back...

model55

So has anything become of this yet? real liked the links you showed.

model55

old enough to not go there but still young enough to envy you the experience.Would love to be giving it a try-by all means keep an up date going!

model55

As long as you are out of the junk science " Condor Zone " fire away, wish I could try mine out think you are going to find it will work out great-let us know!

model55

way I heard it about ford was "found off road dead".but cann't say that around here -the wife loves hers .Then there is my jeep project-"Jusy empty every pocket or Just everyone else's parts".One of my co-workers use to call my Samurai a Suzuki Somersault.The only guy who has tru...

model55

Good job!good looking rifle too!Somehow I'm picturing butterfly cut backstrap steaks with a little homemade salsa................

model55

Good links Bruce!

model55

JP you haven't been bitten by the Military surplus bug yet?!!That heavy ugly rifle as you call it has history that you will not get out of a new store bought rifle.Also it is kind of on topic as it has a lever :) .I have to admit a bias so cannot to be too hard on you.I also am afflicted by the mart...

model55

I always heard that you could use 410's in a 45-70 if that is so couldn't you use the 45-70 cases in a 410?Also one of the russian brands made 410s with brass cases but I would assume with berdan primers-had a few laying around will have to look.

model55

http://www.enfield-rifles.com/forum_pos ... shot-shell Figured you might just have a lot of .303 laying around

model55

Hey!

we cannot talk about that here!-Sorry derailed again had to go there.

model55

Sorry..derailed there for a minute...just a peeve of mine.

model55

First shoot the nut bags who think that child molesters are saveable or can be cured by other then the fore mentioned shooting!

model55

45-70 but I've found blackpowder for it.264 magnum-was Dad's.In the project pile I have a 338-06 barrel but I think that may not come about.My mother's old friend arthritis is visiting me so I imagine calibers will get smaller just for that reason.Have a few that get your attention just because the ...

model55

Actually that does very good .It was one changed over to 308 and it functions and shoots well-wish I hadn't talked myself out of one of those.He wouldn't part with that one,it's a handy rifle for the caliber.

model55

When out this morning with my adapted brother to do some shooting and while it was a failure on the part of my rifles and loads it wasn't a bad day.My brother shot his mossberg 590 which was an eye opener , he shot slugs out to a 100 yards and kept them in the rings of the target.May be I need one o...

model55

Bombed out on this.Did run acrossed 38-55 but that was about it.

model55

Just when I thought I could be happy with what I have

What a good looking set up!

model55

Bruce there is a little hole in the wall place in town here that had 32 brass just cann't remember if it was 32-40 or 32 winchester special but I'll check and let you know what I find one way or the other, may take sometime as he sets his time in the shop on his mood for the day.

model55

+ 1 on the respect.There is a small blessing in that when someone has this, as someone else mentioned different piece of memory come up.Point being you will hear stories from Mr P you may not have before and you may want to write or record them in some manner.You are taking on a duty that so many di...

Just remember who he was and your love for that person.It is like that person is going back to being child like-a hard thing to watch.I find it hard to because with the age group that is going through it now we are losing more of the Great Generation to this as well.My Condolences as well. Chin up.T...

model55

If I remember correctly that was why they made such a big deal out of the TC Contender-it is legal to make a carbine but once you are there it is not legal to put it back to a pistol.Why we continue to put up with this nonsence is beyond me.

model55

Have been eyeing things like this from sitting fox.You can look around at sites like this ,track of the wolfe and so on.http://www.sittingfoxmuzzleloaders.com/ ... 0Rifle.htm

model55

So far that would be the 36 grain barnes varmit granade shooting out of my TC-first time anything has gone through side ways but it's early yet going to try a rifle next.

model55

Before I got side tracked I was going to post that Wd 40 and bungee cords were right up there with duck tape......think I'll just leave this post alone..

Like the sign at the runway says "Beware of Jet Blast "
