I took a RWS model 50 T01 in trade Saturday. It is like new, dated "10-82", and I was wondering if it had any collector status before I start banging it around. It is in 95% condition. I really appreciate any help. Later, moodyholler

Cool truck but be hard to haul much gravel in that box!!!!!!! MH

OK, newer axles are too wide. So I want to keep the stock appearance. I want run Alcoa bud wheels. I will use it mainly for maintenance of my driveway and I know I can hire someone to do it cheaper. The only pics I have are from its working days. No current pics for a while. Driveline will be modern...

OK, I am constantly amazed at the wealth of info available on this forum So here goes. I have a 1952 Ford dump truck, and I want to put it back on the road. The brakes are truly poor on it and I want to upgrade to dics all the way around. Has anyone seen this done? I know the street rod guys are doi...

And so it is!! Thanks, moodyholler

Picked up an 1873 Winchester today. Serial number 71,xxx, Wood higher than the metal, Lot of original varnish and silver metal. Action is tight and bore bright. Accoridng to this site, DOM is 1882.http://www.gun-data.com/winchester_73.htm Is this correct info? It has the "KINGS IMPROVEMENT PATE...

moodyholler

I would be interested. Need more details as they are worked out. Thanks, moodyholler

moodyholler

Kirk, doesn't look as good as your AMerican. And my photo's are sverely lacking your style, but it was a hoot to shoot Saturday and watch my wife shoot it and be tickled she was shooting something so old. Makes it all worth while. Later, moodyholler

moodyholler

Thanks Pete44RU, that is what it looks like. Front blade is homemade of brass though. Will need to look around for proper one. moodyholler

moodyholler

Picked these up Friday. 1895 is a flatside, 4,xxx serial, and 28" barrel in 30 US. Smith is a 32/44 that is a shooter, and has had the barrel cut back to 5 1/2". Shoots good with shorts, and will try longs on Wed. Here are a couple of pics. What should the front and rear sights look like o...

moodyholler

They have levers too!!! Thought I would share this picture. moodyholler

moodyholler

Hey, Joe, it looks like mine except for the color=case. Mine is blued. Sure is a handy critter. I am going to have to spring for a box of fodder for it. Later, moodyholler

moodyholler

Went on vacation last week and went into a small gunshop while avaoding my wife and the beach, and found a neat little MArlin Cowboy in 45 Colt, NO CHECKERING, and a 20" barrel. I have seen the 38 CBC's in 20". but never the 45's. I really like the way it handles. Any insight? Special run?...

30-03 govt AND IS LONGER THAN A 30-06 govt. Later, moodyholler

Gander Mtn in Roanoke, Va has one in thier showroom. Neat looking gun. Is this a factory offering? Or a one offbarrel job? It is in a locked case and I could not examine it. They want 1999.99 for it. Does have a shotgun butt and short barrel. Also had a nice 53 for 1499.99 and an 1895 in 30-06 for 1...

JNG, happy retirement! I have a C SHarps 50-90, and have had SHilohs. It is tit for tat. Finish is slightly better on a Shiloh, but wait time is longer. Shiloh makes thier own barrels, and use investment castings. C Sharps uses Badger barrels and machined bar stock parts, and are some quicker. I lik...

I have really tried to remain calm lately. As you know, FatoldFooll has been having trouble with a Chiappa 92 takedown I got him for Christmas. Large bore, and overly large chamber, and feeding problems have made this pretty little rifle a real headache. I have heard from Taylors, and Chiappa, Italy...

Hey all, I bought one of the Taylor's CHIAPPA ARMI SPORT takedown 1892's in 44-40 for my Dad couple of weeks ago. When you fire 44-40's from it, they come out without any neck left. Diameter is almost .460"! Bore is huge oversize at Ø.432". It also has feeding issues. The gun was new in th...

moodyholler

Tutt, I want to say 1-24 but will have to check it out for you. It is a super gun to shoot, and the natives eyes really bug out when you hand them a cartridge. moodyholler

moodyholler

50-90 sharps with 600 grain slugs and 100 grains GOEX cartridge. moodyholler

moodyholler

8 parts linseed and 2 parts mineral spirits will come close to original military finish. Those are fine guns and I have a few myself. Good to see one on the mend. Later, moodyholler

moodyholler

Would likely be in Sept. I will try and have some possible dates by Monday. It will be at Roanoke Rifle and Revolver Club south of Roanoke. Same place as last year. Later, moodyholler

Shot the 405 today with Hornady factory ammo and it is not too bad. However, it does have headspace issues. Thanks for all the pics of the latch. I have found a repro but still amy trade it off for a 95 in 30-40. Thanks, JAP

moodyholler

KE, I had a massive stroke in 2005. They told me I would not live, then I would be blind and crippled. Now I work 40 hours a week, shoot, do about anything I want. I do have eye issues still. I think I want to trade this 405 for a 30-40 Krag 95 and am going to post in the classifieds as such. Thanks...

moodyholler

I like to see the repro latch also. Thanks for the info. moodyholler

moodyholler

Today I went to my favorite shop and there against the wall was a very ratty 1895 takedown in 405 complete with an express sight. It has been buffed heavily, has a replacement buttstock with a recoil pad and bore is dark. I have already made the pin it need and need to see some examples of takedown ...

moodyholler

How about the new Merwin and Hulberts? They were supposed to have a booth there also and have some samples. Thanks, moodyholler

moodyholler

Geoff, my 50-90 is a lot of fun. My 120lb cousin has shot it with full house loads and she brags to everyone. Likewise my sister has shot it. Takes all the way up to 110 grains of powder and 600+ grain bullets. Enjoy it!!! moodyholler

moodyholler

1st one was broke right out of the box. They had me send it back for repairs and then sent me a new one after 4 months. They really open the chamber up to make them feed and they are hard on brass. I really liked mine, but still did not keep it. It was a Taurus T-bolt in 45c. moodyholler

moodyholler

Mine is a 1972 model, and is a blast to shoot. You can't go wrong with one. Shoots cast very well. Later, moodyholler

moodyholler

A friend of mine wants to barrel his Krag rifle to 35 Winchester Ackley Improved. There is no official version of this that I can find. A factory round cycles fine through my un-barrelled action. I can have the reamer made. My question is how do I determine what CUP or PSI this thing is capable of? ...

moodyholler

I have an extra set, And the J-4 laying around. Email me when you can. Talk to you later, moodyholler

moodyholler

Hey yaw!!! Boreman is sure a nice feller!!! Thanks and it was a pleasure putting on a shindig. Just got off the phone with the match director and he is putting us on the list for another attempt in the spring. Dang, will have to post the pictures taken tomorrow. BTW, boreman is a 71 fanatic. I thoug...

My smooth rifle with 48" barrel, made by Jim Wheeler of Salem,Va. Hope this picture works out. moodyholler (It's the one in the center)

moodyholler

Craig, my Va style "gun" is a smooth bore and has a 48" barrel. It will surprise you how accurate a round ball is even without rifling or a rear sight. Make the pilgrimage to Roaonoke sometime. We are still having the Levergunz.com shoot this coming Satruday. Later, moodyholler

OK, I will be at the range Friday evening from about 5pm on. It is range c at RRRC. I cannot stay the night and will be unable to cook a breakfast. I am just not recovering that fast. Doctor's appt. next Weds. will let me know about being in vicinity of gunfire. The match WILL be run on schedule. Pl...

moodyholler

Boreman, I have been in the hospital in ICU for a while. sorry for the delay. Roanoke is only 8-9 miles from the range, so any hotel here will be close enough. Boone's Mill is equal distant from the South. I will try to get you more info. Roanoke, Rifle, and Revolver Range has a website: RRRC.com I ...
