Re: Got the cabin in PA cleaned up for the season
H&R’s can be very accurate. The 999 sprang from a target revolver. Take a look at the sights and the trigger guard. My 4” 999 shoots very well with most stuff but phenomenally ( not from my hands anymore ) with target grade ammo. I bought it because as a lefty it was one of the few friendly rev...

Re: Got the cabin in PA cleaned up for the season
Looks like a good time.
I have the same H&R revolver I believe it's the model 922
if yours is like mine you have to remove the cylinder to push all the empty cartridges out with the cylinder pin.

Quick question:
I have a Winchester Model 71 Deluxe made in 1941
Is the magazine tube threaded or just pressed in?
I want to remove the forend wood and the tube doesn't pull out, it won't budge and I don't want to force it and screw it up.
Thanks

A real ADL like yours is very hard to find! They sold so few of them that Marlin ended up using up the "336 ADL" barrels on regular 336A guns, causing a lot of confusion in later years! People often buy these guns with the 336 ADL marked barrels, and think they've got a real ADL, or think...

The 71 is a really special Winchester, if you ask me. The .348 is about as perfect an elk cartridge as there is. Somewhere on Youtube is a classic video of a bunch of guys going hunting with their Model 71s in the 1950s. Here is that video I love it! https://lowerbalsamlake.com/canadian-moose-hunt

They both shoot ok you can hit tin cans with them at 20 feet can't complain with the fixed sights that are on them.
I don't shoot the 929 much and I mostly use the 949 with snake shot in it.
I had a 999 and I couldn't hit the side of a barn from the inside with it.
