Sounds good bro. The bellows to make the air is genius.

You can see the cylinder retainer on my old 1917.

Sweet!

It was a riverboat whistle that the "Solemn Old Judge" would blow when he felt like it. I remember it well from listening to the Grand Ol Opry on the radio. I can't imagine how he could make enough wind to blow that steam whistle.

Really nice '95s 2ndovc.

The sight on my roller is much longer but it's the Danish version. I think it's for a carbine. Maybe even the Krag.

M. M. Wright

Sweet!

Don't you just love opening the box of some new goodies? Well I got a box in today's mail so I'll share it with you. Decided I needed to renew the toggle links in my old 73 SRC so I ordered a new set from Lee Shaver. https://i.imgur.com/LPwKdYR.jpg?1 Here's what they look like. https://i.imgur.com/D...

Give him a big SALUTE boys!

Gotta say; Never felt closer to God than in the Glory of His Creation. From treeline in the Rockies to flatwoods in Louisiana there is nothing finer. Sunrise on Okracoke ain't bad either.

M. M. Wright

Lots of Uberti links, in matched sets, for sale over on SASS classifieds. They replace them with short stroke sets. Lately I've seen a couple of sets from the new Mirokus offered. I have one of each, (Miroku and Win from 1885) and doing comparisons found the links to be interchangeable in mine. Or V...

God is good and prayer changes things! Glory to God.

I'd just like to say that I've bought stuff from Palmetto State and it all fit and worked with no problems.

M. M. Wright

Doc AJ, I like the 32-20 too. I can't seem to hang on to SAA barrels or cylinders in the cal. I never let anyone see my 92 Winchester rifle that NKJ tuned up for me. Come to think of it, time to limber it up when I feel better.

M. M. Wright

Ah, but what a magnificent example of the gunmaker's art.

M. M. Wright

I've probably owned 2 of everything but put more miles on and old 75 R90 than any of the rest. Dead reliable. Never had to push it a mile.

M. M. Wright

Sometime in 62 we were issued M-14s with wood hand guards. During our first trip to the range, everyone's rifle was smoking, no full auto. We got our carbines back. I don't see why you don't get that with Garands. But then they should have chosen FALS like the rest of the free world. JMO!

M. M. Wright

I watched all the videos just now buddy. Did you get them all running? Seems as though you must have. Just got home from being in hospital for 3 days. Got dehydrated again, then an infection and low on a couple of things. Doc got me fixed right up though.
Hey you really got Norma working!

M. M. Wright

Thanks Grizz. Most enjoyable and informative. I too have an 86 Browning SRC 45-70 that's been shortened. It's the same length as a 94 SRC and wears a receiver sight. Very handy! I'm partial to 300 grain gas checked Pb and 5744.

M. M. Wright

I have a new old stock one that would be correct. It is NEW and requires no refinishing or repairs. Includes the butt plate. $100.00 shipped.

M. M. Wright

Hey Pete, when Bond's book first came out, a colleague of mine and I really enjoyed it so we came up with about 30 more "USES". We sent them to him with our permission to include them in the sequel, "Another 101 Uses For A Dead Cat". We got a nice letter back thanking us but saying he was sure there...

M. M. Wright

Well, you done it again Pard. Another successful restoration. Wanna try this Ironhead sporty that's on my lift? I've got so many projects I'll never live long enough to get 'em done.

M. M. Wright

Amazing!

M. M. Wright

Now THAT works brother! "I love it when a good plan comes together."

M. M. Wright

Here is where I'd use a points eliminator but these look pretty good so? Give me the specs on your rings and I might have set. I need the bore diameter and the thickness of each ring if you want to go to that much trouble. Worked on an old Ithica 37 pump this morning and it shoots and shucks now.

M. M. Wright

Always glad to see you and Jess "in the field". As to the 990, I still have my Father's 60. Hasn't been shot since he died in 92. I should put a few rounds through it.

M. M. Wright

Good one Bro!

Yeah, I had a Pinto too. Bought it from a friend with a salvage. I'd just had a Vega that would almost get 40 mpg if you tried real hard. That Pinto got 38 with three fat sisters and all their kids in it. Didn't matter how you drove it either.

M. M. Wright

That is one gorgeous 86 pard. Great report and please let us in on future range time. Keep the pics coming.

M. M. Wright

And I don't even have my cameras out yet.

M. M. Wright

I have a really nice Belgian made bbl but it has a Cutts and changeable choke added. $100 PM me if interested.

M. M. Wright

Oldest son lives in the middle of nowhere but obviously close to someone with friends in high places. Last week he called me to report seeing not one but two P-51s flying formation over his place in northeastern Oklahoma, near the Arkansas line. They did a big loop, taking it up to just hang on the ...

M. M. Wright

I love it man. I love it so much I have 4 similar to it. Uberti 24 1/4" octagon bbl rifle, 20" Uberti Octagon bbl rifle, SRC from 1885, and SRC from Miroku. All 44-40. I was trying to get the old SRC to shoot decent groups so I slugged the barrel which is .431 dia, so I bought the new Miroku thinkin...

M. M. Wright

Way to go bro. Works like a champ! Thanks for showing everyone the video, it's great. Got the front clip back on my 49 pickup today, not bolted down but sitting back almost in place. It's back to the surgeon tomorrow for a check-up on the knee whlich is better but not near as good as before I fell o...

M. M. Wright

Thanks Grizz, yes a good way to start just about anything.

BLB is my favorite study tool.

M. M. Wright

GROAN!

Seriously Blaine, thanks for the levity.

M. M. Wright

I guess if you've got enough traction to pop a wheelie then cleats are definitely not needed huh?

M. M. Wright

I calculated using a 9 tooth/40 tooth sprocket, then 9 tooth/30 tooth turning the 8 inch dia. drive roller. 2000 RPM at the motor should give about 2.9 mph which, I think, is about right but only trial runs will prove what little changes are required. Lookin' good Lenn.

M. M. Wright

I ran the numbers Pitchy and if I got it right 2000 RPM should give you just under 3 MPH which sounds about perfect to me. The only sketchy part is how much slippage the roller exhibits under power. It may need some cleats to get enough traction. Whatcha think?

M. M. Wright

I've got a spare 96" twin cam you can have to go on it. FI and air cleaner is still on it. There is a 5 speed and a nearly new primary for it too. 2010 model with 800 miles on it. Might be a mite too much power but you're sure welcome to it. Esperanza's lookin' over my shoulder and says "we gonna de...

M. M. Wright

Congrats! I too like those Mannlicher stocks. I once built a 308 Win from an old Mannlicher Schoenauer action and a 30 cal water cooled machine gun barrel. I even put the butter knife bolt handle on it. I've no idea how many hours it took me to get that rotary magazine to work with the 308. If I cou...

M. M. Wright

Hey Pete, how about telling us about that brace of single actions in their nice fitted case. Inquiring minds want to know.

M. M. Wright

I took a basket case one in trade a year or so ago. Had to find a couple of small parts but it went back together OK and shot small groups with the open sights. My take is they are a good value for the money.

Why do people dis-assemble guns they can't put back together?

M. M. Wright

Way to go friend. Glad you were able to outsmart Reynard. Happily you like the auto but I'm a fancier of pumps. Especially 16ga.

M. M. Wright

We were a little late getting around this morning but we were in His house. First Sunday so our denomination had communion. A bit different today with real loaves and larger than normal wine cups. Always very special for me though.

M. M. Wright

Now that is a cool box. You better figure out something nice to do for Norma now.

M. M. Wright

I guess I am a little more dated. Here is a 63, a 65 and a 69 I had. https://i.postimg.cc/d0w18q9Q/5-1.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/VLX0MHcR/7.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/02S2F6W2/6-1.jpg Thanks Bill, nice bikes, here's my old 66 gear-side shovel. Only 9,000 miles on this build but I've had it for 10 year...

M. M. Wright

Lenn, I've still got one of those seats that goes behind, no wheels any more but most of the rest. I think this went behind a Gravely with a sickle bar mower on it. Got that too but not in good condition. I keep too much junk. Like, why do I have 5 tractors? Yeah, they all run and get used at least ...

M. M. Wright

Looks good Lenn. I well remember the reel mowers with motors my Daddy worked on everything them included. He saw a Yazoo somewhere and built a knock-off of it. 3/4" plywood base, bicycle wheels and a sharpened leafspring for a blade. Don't remember what the spindle for the blade was but instead of l...

M. M. Wright

Steam tractor, antique tractors, hit & miss engines etc. at Pawnee OK the first full weekend in May every year. They have a big Corless permanently on display too. It's usually muddy but worth it. You just need your gum boots.

M. M. Wright

Safe travels and much joy!
