After 4 decades of using my 444S I didn't realize my gun has a floppy trigger!! I know, right? when I hear about floppy triggers I figure there are other issues and the trigger gets the blame. I don't even think a light trigger pull is necessary on a hunting firearm. I just check to see if the weig...

yeah, and the kicker is the trip was in 2009

here's a for instance about my assertion that it is highly likely that ocean crossings were made in paleo times. this is not a paleo boat, but there is nothing about this modern day arctic voyage that could not have been achieved by an umiak or log canoe or a variety of other vessels. the arctic can...

Hi wm yes. I added significant magazine capacity. I have long been of the opinion that it would be unhealthy to run out of ammo first. I acted to improve my spot on the bell curve. some folks are certain that six or seven rounds is all that anyone should reasonably expect to need in any self-defens...

Grizz

wow, talk about rubbing salt in a dead horse. I think I got locked out of mo about the same time Blaine did maybe. man, that's been a long time ago now, eh? I can't remember my offense. Maybe I published photos of 45/70 penetration that the medium bore guys couldn't digest. or maybe they couldn't st...

would really like to see pictures of that. it's the letters that interest me. the language that zakyneros used was, if I can get close to accurate recall, a transitional language between pictograph and phonetic alphabets. paleo hebrew is a pictograph centered with phonetic overtones, our alphabet is...

45/70 don't need no follow-up shots

nice gun, looks like a ton of fun

What will people be talking on? CB, the little FM 2 ways, 2 meter voice? How would you shield a box to keep them from burning out with an EMP? An old microwave. They are faraday cages. that can work if you tape it up with metalic duct tape, otherwise the microwaves can skip right into it. good reas...

Grizz

whatever works... most radios will be useless put radio in metal canister with tight fitting lid and tape lid tightly with duct tape without the tape the microwaves can slide right under the lid and zap the contents. put the canister into a 30 gallon steel trash can and tape that lid tightly. most s...

Grizz, the Kel-Tec SU-16 Is a great little rifle. Not a lot of personal experience with one but I have shot ones belonging to other shooters at the range. BTW not one of them was willing to part with theirs. On you tube search out the nutinfancy channel. He has reviews that are some of the best out...

Grizz

my vote is for the XD for a carry gun. my xd compact is more reliable with my handloads than my 300$ Phillipino 1911, which is built to the colt production specs. It carries more rounds with the full size mag, and it conceals better than a 1911 with the 10 round mag. With the 10 round mag it's not m...

good shootin'.

Grizz

second vote for the keltec sub2K it is handier than an ar, unless you have a 14" barrel on it. it's about the shortest carbine around. it is accurate, it is reliable, and it is more than adequate, judging from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wXFf34bB34 it's long but the nitty gritt...

Grizz I wonder if those Chinese were after the Port Orford Cedar, which grows to great heights before there is any branching off, making it clear as a bell. I think it is the best quality cedar as it is so clear ( no knots ). To my knowledge, it is mostly found in Oregon,mandate is straight and whi...

Grizz I find that link fascinating. I wonder who could have scared that fella so bad as to run out into such a desolate spot. Maybe it was more hospitable then. Thanks for the link. what Blaine said . . . actually the pre history plains were not peaceful, the various language groups did not live in...

Grizz where a bouts is that rock? wish I could tell you. as I said, my info is in Alaska. Might as well be in Oslo.

about 200bc a ship from the mediterranean landed somewhere in the gulf of mexico and the sailors dispersed and eventually were running for their lives, or run down. there is an inscribed account on a rock in what is now new mexico from what sounds like the last survivor. it is dated by the alphabet ...

thanks for reading and commenting guys.... Doc, that's good info. My initial idea about the laser is that it can preclude having to "obtain a sight picture"; so in a defense of life situation in the dark of night when there is no sight picture, the bullet will land on the dot, wherever tha...

Here's a little 380 love for the fun of it. My 1st chance to try the 10 round mag and the green laser on the lcp. Woohoo. 430.JPG I put the cup about 21 feet out and put the laser where the bullet went. I had co-witnessed it with the iron "sights" on the lcp at the house, so I thought that...

Buck, what's the twist rate on the uberti 92 barrel?

My only comment for the OP is to avoid the 1:38 twist if he wants to shoot long bullets

it's a fact that vikings got to the newfoundland area long before columbus got to the florida area

Grizz

now you've gone and done it. those handis are something like lays potato chips.....

you may not need to lengthen the chamber, my 357 winch sends 185gr cast out at 1725fps, avg.

fun gun and easy for teaching and training new riflemen.

could you mix some flour fine sawdust in some epoxy resin and work it into the crack? then contour it when it is green and workable. might get er done. maybe.

Grizz

that sounds like a great rifle to nestle in with the siblings. they are good shooters and will be a barrel of fun. the question about the 310gr bullet will be decided by the rifling. the microgroove barrel is the same super show twist of the marlin 44 mag, I forget what it is. some few slow spin mar...

forget who said it, but DRT is a CNS shot, and I've preferred them as my first choice. but I only hunt for food for family and friends, and out of a couple hundred deer I lost one.

444 or 45/70 or Savage 99 in .308. The things that bite are not to be trifled with.

If I were to take my .357 it would be full of 185gr or 200gr hard cast, but I'd not be too happy about it.
