Re: OT-Colt Mustang Help needed.

Mine is a Stainless Mustang PLUS II.
I used it for my CPL class(concealed Pistol License) and it shot 3 1/2 inches or so rapid fire at about 25 feet. I was pleased.

Sorry , not much help, I know, but some of them DO shoot well.

Re: "The Pacific" on HBO

I watched the 2nd one, too.
I didnt realize it was Puller making the translation, but I got a charge out of it.

Sorry I missed the first one.

I have always liked Hank's work. He is a good one.

But I think he will alienate some with his recent remarks about the U.S. in WWII. Bad judgement.(IMHO)

Re: peep sights

I have a Williams 5D on my 1972 Model 94 in 30-30. In hindsight, I sure wish I had spent the extra for the Williams FoolProof. It is a lot easier to adjust. The 5D is fine, just tedious to adjust when you need to.. Yes, I know it is not adjusted often, but with a FoolProof you could set it up for mu...

Re: 1377 dies an early death...

I used one in the boiler room where I worked for years.

It was my mouse and cockroach gun. Buttstock attached.

I could shoot 10 shots into a dime at 30 feet and I told the guys I only took HEAD shots.

I know it sure killed the little buggers.

Re: Rossie model 92/ B Square sight.

OK, thanks..might try one. They are about $40-60, $37 at Midway-out of stock of course. Some of the reviews are downright BAD! But I have on on my Ruger MKII now and it seems ok. Now if I can get my ammo delivered..ha. Ordered some last week with a 1 month delivery, now they say 5 months..eeek! MArk

Re: Rossie model 92 How about the B-Square side mount?

Just for sake of discussion, has ANYONE seen, tried, or used the B-square side mount scope mount for the Rossi? I used one on a Mini 14 some years back, and wondered if it held ok on a 357? I have a couple new red dots in the drawer looking for a place to go, and hunting coyotes at and after dusk ca...

Re: Rossi model 92 Older interarms sight

Thanks to all for the suggestions. Steve, You are 100% on the rear dovetail slot, it is .400 and an oddball. I looked at adding a shim, but wasn't enamored with the looks(Of course the 72 WInchester folded stamped steel dovetail rear sight on my 94 30-30 is wierd loooking, too.) If I can find some f...

Re: Rossie model 92

Are there any sights available to install on the older Rossis with the sight cast into the barrel band? Or is ther a barrel band available with a dovetail in it? Are there any sights which will fit the rear dovetail, as mine is an odd size compared to my Winchester/Rugers? Thanks a lot. Love that 92...

Re: OT: Chamber Adapters

What about using the Remington Accellerators for 30-06?

.222 cal, i think , in a sabot at abt 4000 fps, but might do what you want.

Do they still make these?

BTW, if you use these in your lever gun with tubular magazine, REMEMBER ONE IN BARREL and ONE ONLY in magazine.
