Humbled..... Let's not forget our Countrymen who are missing in action, KIA or POW.

Wow! never envisioned so much info put fourth..... Learning a lot. Thanks for all the input... Hope it helps others too.

My dad was an aircrew member (top turret gunner) on a B 24 Bomber during WWII....he was shot down and very badly wounded....spent a day or two floating in a raft with 3 other crewmen.....he finally ended up at Drew Field Hospital (I think) in Tampa. He told me that the Red Cross would come around p...

I use these. http://www.lowes.com/pd_293883-16878-53247_0__ Never even thought of Lowes.... I have sereral of Lowes brand tools and they are Great! Will look into Kobalt also. But, prefer what what seems to be the front runner her Mit.... But, I will look into them further. Thanks for the insight.

Beware though - some of the Starrett's at the low price end are now made in China. I have a cheapo pair of PLASTIC ones :o I use the most for day-to-day measurements when +/- 1/100th is ok (which most times it is for reloading), but I get out the better ones when needed. When I really want precisio...

Ok, I have another set (?) of Digital Calipers go south on me. Can anyone suggest a set (?) that will last that has worked out for you. thanks... John

PS... Make, Mode, and place bought. Thanks.

It's a movie and not a Documentary. Kinda like the line in the movie Animal House.... "Remember when the Germans Bombed Pearl harbor"

...I had my hands on a C-Centennial a few years back, I thought it looked Gaudy. Pressed in graphics (?) etc. Like you, I like the traditional looking rifles. Still leaning towards the Carbine. Yes, they have stamped "engraving", the maple leaves on the receiver, and the "Canadian Ce...

None online, but with a 2 can limit it's not really worth it with the hazmat fee. I did find a few 4lb cans of Titegroup on line a few weeks back and even with the hazmat fee that wasn't too bad given the quantity and a few other types thrown in on the same order. What a crummy time to get into rel...

Varget seems to be in good supply again at local shops here in NH. Nice to see. IMR seems to be filling the shelves again here on the boarder. Been shopping for TB for two months and called Cabelas just the other day with no luck as almost predicted till yesterday. If I was having trouble... though...

The carbines are about the best for a carry/working gun, they are short enough to be extrememly handy, long enough to take much of the bark away that the 16" barrel guns have. I like earlier guns for several reasons, though don't look down on later guns if in decent shape. Certain later models...

Still a lot of pre-64s around in the carbine and if you're patient, you can still find one at a reasonable price. Pristine examples are pricey, yes, but I still see a few "well broke-in" examples at estate sales and pawn shops that are quite reasonable as in, say, $300-450. The good news ...

Looking for an 1894 but, which one? Would like a Pre-64 for nostalgia in a 30-30 Cal. There seems to be so many variations or versions (?) available. Any thoughts of what works for you and for me to consider to help me along. I have a Browning 1886, NIB, Now (Just Waiting on my dies to arrive). It w...

Cabelas has a Trail Boss Powder available again. Limit is two containers per person per day.

I think that it looks great! I like the looks of a curved buttplate; when I shoulder mine, I position the buttplate just off of my shoulder, the bottom of the crescent is pointed just under my armpit. (kind of hard to describe). I also usually have a jacket on when I shoot it which does help dampen...

It would depend on your comfort level with the results and what you are trying to achieve. Restock it or live with the results.

We all remember Hurricane Katrina and the Red Cross buying computers with the donated money. From my personal experience with the RC.... Not worth my time to have a conversation with them. Salvation Army is the only way to go!

You got it sir?!

WHAT! No U.N. involvement? This has got to be a joke... Right?

True Story: After retiring from the AF after a 20-Year stint. I became a Letter Carrier..... One of my stops was a young struggling family of which I ended up getting to know them very well. He applied to be a mailman also because of me etc. He failed the test a few times and got discouraged thus de...

Biggest screw up of my life is not getting a degree while I was in the Army and had time...(and, they would have paid for it :roll: ) I'm a loser because of that :oops: :oops: You served your Country... Good Job and no one can take that away from you. You are a Hero! I finished up my Assoc. in a Sc...

I have experienced the same issue with RCBS dies. .45LC and .44Mag. After several individuals have looked my Reloads over and over... No one can quite put their finger on the cause either. Initially we thought the Brass was catching the leading edge of the crimp groove and pulling it down some.... A...
