You are free to draw your own conclusions.

Yeah, what a "coincidence".

There are only three things we blame these days:

a) it's Trump's fault because orange man bad
b) the NRA
c) climate change

You forgot "systemic racism".

After being in the house for two weeks with the crud, I finally managed to stagger out to my club's weekly levergun silhouette match this morning. Shot my Rossi .357 again, it has a fine trigger and super smooth action , I really like shooting it, the 24" barrel makes is easier to hold. Wind ou...

Look at the top of the receiver on the inside. There should be a flat narrow leaf type spring that is the cartridge guide in the inside top. A single screw through the top holds it in place, and they occasionally break over many years. If it has broken it's likely the culprit. Easy to fix, and easy...

Dixie Gun Works? Maybe.

See if you can find a Civil War reenactment group or forum, they are sticklers for authentic and might be able to find you drawings and specs so you can get one made, or maybe just buy one from a supplier.

Imagine (though quite a few here don’t have to) returning from Southeast Asia and being told you’re too young to buy a drink or .22’s.

That aint even half of it.

These have been in the back of my locker for maybe 40 years, cant remember what I paid, probably around 7 bucks or so.

We lived in Sacramento and Susanville for 11 years as a result of military service, this was back in the 1970's. California was a wonderful place then, sorry to see the socialists have reduced it to a third world country. k

Very sorry for your loss and your pain. Hope you soon find sunnier days.

Best course of action here. You cant get enough out of it to buy anything better and you will miss it later.

Keep looking, you can do a lot better than that.

Never worked on Mexican cops either, 3 other very young and green airmen and myself spent 2 days and 2 nights as a guest of the mayor of Juarez, we got to having too much fun in a cantina and got hauled off. Not one of life's shiniest moments.

I was faced with the same problem, my Dad died in 1960 and my Mom in 1998. She was cremated and the urn was buried in the same space as my Dad, cemetery boss had no problem with it at all. Go check with them.

When I was shooting IHMSA, I shot thousands of rounds of .44 Mag through a Ruger revolver, experimented with different powders and found Blue Dot to be the most accurate while delivering plenty of "oomph" to knock down the Rams. I use it today in my 44-40 for Pistol Caliber Lever Action si...

I posted this a few years ago, just ran across it in Documents so thought I would post it again: Lander, Wyoming in 1948-49 was a small, remote ranch town of about 2500 people where the Great Depression was just starting to end. As a nine year old boy, I would spend my 15 cents at the Saturday matin...

Shooting the anvil is still a popular event at South Pass Wyoming during their annual heritage celebration.

.50 caliber flinter with round ball, 60 grains 3F, worked very well for me on pronghorns, brought home 24 over the years.

.257 Roberts for deer.

.30-06 for elk.

Only got one moose, .33WCF 1886 Winchester

A friend and I went to the annual Wyoming Weapons Collectors gunshow in Riverton WY this morning. This is usually one of the best gunshows in the state, they dont allow any beanie babies, homemade fudge, etc, just guns and gunstuff. Did not see one person with a mask on. VERY large crowd, hard to ge...

Made it to the range this morning for out club's first Wednesday morning lever action silhouette shoot of the season, shot the Marlin 39a at the half-sized targets. Had a somewhat difficult time with back pain and sciatica bothering me, but still managed to hit 32/60 . 50/60 was my previous average ...

Being an avid lever action silhouette shooter, I have been struggling to get to the point where I can hit some of the steel critters again. Had the covid last winter, lost 2 months of my life and dang near died of it, the issue was in doubt for a few days. Have been SLOWLY recovering, Doc sent me to...

I shot IHMSA Revolver class for years with a Ruger 10" .44 Mag, 40 rounds for a match, full house load, never bothered me a bit. I am using a regular two-handed grip on this revolver and a firm grip. Load is 250 grain cast bullet and 11 grains of Blue Dot, supposedly equals the original U.S. Ca...

Went out to shoot my Cimarron SAA US Cavalry model a couple of days ago. Could only shoot 10 rounds, the trigger guard kept trying to mangle the back of my fingers. I can't possibly be the only person with this problem. Any of you fellers know of a good shooting glove I should buy that has padding o...

Well said. I've gotta remember that line.

In today's world, a student can go from kindergarten all the way through a Master's degree and not take even one course in history. Sad.

How come, when some people advertise a gun for sale, they will say the firearm came from an estate or a friend who recently died or something like that. For instance, at our local club, a person selling a rifle advertised " got this rifle from the estate of an older fellow who recently died, I ...

I need someone who is really knowledgeable to guide me along here. Years ago I inherited a Winchester Model 1894 Saddle Ring Carbine in .25-35. This rifle was made in 1908, as far as I can tell from the serial # which is 4592xx. It is in only fair shape and some might say poor. The blue on the mag t...

Great to hear from you again, Nath. Best wishes to you for your new year, hope you get to make a lot of smoke.

Many of us here do not understand your comment about being "made redundant". Please explain.

Next time it does that, just grab the back of the bolt and pull back. Works for my 39A which has that problem every so often.
