I am trying to send a private message and I don't think it was sent as it says it is still in the outbox. Any ideas?

My brother-in-law in Utah wants to buy a 9mm pistol from me. I live in NC. Neither of us have FFL's. What do I need to do? I have been trying to find the answerer on the ATF website but that is a little like doing my taxes, I can't get through the garbage to find the answerer.

I had a death in the family so I have been spending some time back in Pocatello, Id. I was very pleased and surprised to go to a gun show. Surprisingly to me it was on the Idaho State campus in the student union building. What a pleasant experience. I have lived away from home for so long I about fo...

All I can say is WOW!!!

Dastook

Guilty!! Guilty!! Guilty of almost all of the above. It sure is great seeing I am not the only one.... Do you ever sleep with a levergun just to have it close to you?? My wife got over the jealousy years ago.

Dastook

Nath, you are the man!! If there are "Rednecks" in England you would qualify as one of the best. By the way I use that term as a great compliment and term of endearment.

Dastook

I love mine. A rifle in 45 and a carbine in 357. We have as one of our members the worlds best authority on these rifles Nate Kiowa Jones. Hopefully he will chime in, if he sees your post.

My brother lives in Chandler and frequents the place on a regular basis. I was there on business about six weeks ago and he took me there for a burger. It was great, and the burger was good too. There is another place there in Chandler that has a Scottish theme, I forget the name of it now, that is ...

What's my wifes bra size you ask. 44-40. The right ones a little bigger than the left.

I have either 45 or 46. There is always one or two that stays in flux with trades etc.

I was reading another thread talking about bullet length and how it affected by twist rate. I understand that longer and not necessarily heavier bullets need a faster twist rate to stabilize. This brings me to the question. Because longer bullets need a faster twist rate does this create more fricti...

If I just go bummin I carry my 92 in 357 or my 22, 39a. I carry a SIG 220 in 45 or SIG 229 in 40 on my hip.

Is that your first deer with the LE? I'd imagine your sold on that round.

This was the first deer I have killed with LE ammo. It defiantly did the job.

Had a great time at camp this year. We generally have a ton of does and the bucks are limited in number. Not this year. I saw more bucks than does in total numbers. The second day of hunting I killed a nice seven point that weighed 142#. I killed it with one of those evil bolt guns so I am not submi...

It's all relative to what you are used to I guess. I am in Phoenix right now on business. I have to come here frequently.

The study you are mentioning was addressed by the NRA in American Hunter a couple months ago. It was done by an anti gun/hunting Dr. The study was redone by the University of South Dakota (I think, I'm going by memory here) and was found to be bogus. That does not stop these people as we all know. T...

Season for Whitetail opens here in NC that day. I have to go to my only grandsons first birthday party in SC Sat. We aren't allowed to hunt on Sun. here but I will out in force Monday morning with my 86, 45-70.

Thanks Hobbie. All of this is well documented in separate parts in many locations. It is good to see it from the horses mouth.

Welcome back. Good to hear from you and the good news.

Welll, it is probably unissued since the rebuild, but it has been to Ogden Arsenal (Utah) for a rebuild. To my simple mind, an unissued rifle is one that has not been issued from the original manufacture. I have one that is identical in that it was unissued since an Odgen rebuild and I got it free ...

Primarily I was just trying to find a measure for best COL for reloading cartridges in a given rifle. You all bring up a good point as to ways to measure true head-space as well. Thanks for the input.

Dastook

Nath, you are the man.

Dastook

Does anyone know of a good and ACCURATE head-space or chamber gauge. I am looking for one that can be used in calibers from 22-250 thru .338 and 45-70. It would also have to measure many in between. I found a few on the web but have no experience with any of them to know if they are any good.

Although I have done it to my guns, I don't believe that this gun can be sold "as new" when it has had these aftermarket mods. Bypassing the safety devices could place the seller and buyer at risk of potential lawsuits. That being said, the modifications alone are easily worth the extra 3...
