You're a smart guy and what you did last night was very smart and brave. No need to apologize for being brave and smart. I experienced a kind of grieving when my career ended. It's lasted about 10 years so far. Maybe the change of a life long routine is tougher to deal with than we know. I am going ...

I got your back. been there done that.

Call any time if you feel like talking.

looking really very good

needs a "shingle" and ice cooler before serious forging starts, eh?

I'd keep the 375 for all the reasons cited above. The 444 is really a companion gun to the 44 mag and if you were to quit on 45/70 it'd be a good way to go. But as long as you have and load for a 45/70 there's no good reason to keep the 444 in preference to the 375. The 444 is a medium bore anyway, ...

Nath hard cast is just that, it hardly bumps up in fire wood. hard cast mostly resemble solids, as if they were lathe turned brass or something like that. like the other guys said, you don't need an expanding bullet you get two holes and no meat damage. Although, come to think about it, you probably...

Thanks Udy,

Yeah, those saw blades make good knives. Some folks make crooked knives out of them because they aren't too too thick.

Ya have yourself some raw material there...

very very fine. wouldn't it be nice to have a water wheel turning an overhead shaft? Or a donkey engine. Looks like it would fit right in.

Grizz

thanks for the comments guys. hoping someone else will catch the wave, like Sigmar nice job ! i have some old worn out forrest blades laying around, may give this a try thanks. it's not too hard. if you use a cutoff wheel on an angle grinder it will go pretty fast. I drilled close spaced holes and u...

they're 1/8" brass pins filed flush and anchored by JB. brass stock from local hardware.

except one of them has nails for the pins, so they can rust and look authentic. LOL

Grizz

Thanks to the encouragement from Ji I got a sawblade to carve up. All metalwork except the hole drilling was with hand tools. shaving.JPG The east and north version have firewood grip panels, douglas fir and hard maple. The other two grips are something a little exotic and imported but I don't know ...

that's beyond sweet, thanks.

is that a piece of shafting? where did you find that? I am looking for an anvil but not finding anything affordable. someone said you can weld a piece of tool steel onto a chicom anvil, still looking at that. Like the trip hammer. Saw a pict of an old water powered one, really massive, kind of thing...

Thanks Kirk

I have no idea why I thought there was a long and short tang variation. Glad to know the reality.

Caught this flipping ctv in the sleepless hours. The issue of human slavery is not given much thought by the intellectual elites so concerned with depriving us of carbon and babies, but this is so dispicable that it needs a wider audience. I trust you gunners to do the appropriate thing with this in...

Grizz

Yeah, the tang sight in the photo does look kind of odd upon a careful look. It seems too far forward and the bolt would hit it when levered back. could it be that he has a long tang gun? yours seems to be a short tang, but maybe it's just the angle. the peeper on my 86 gets almost kissed by the bo...

lost an uncle on Normandy Beach way back when. a civilian salute to all you brave souls who came home, and didn't.

and to all the families who waited in fear and trembling, met with joy or outrageous pain of loss, God bless.

Is that his hat and jacket at his feet?

What is he standing on?

Great photo.

Blaine is a crack shot and would be competitive in any group of shooters. If it didn't involve running.

Congrats and best of everything for both of you, and a long future together too.

that's very interesting and impressive. don't know about clearance issues, but you can blue fit with 6000 grit if necessary.

I think the plating will complement the stock too. a BBQ carbine. good on ya!

can you sleep in the drive chair? I've spent months sleeping in the man-van that way. It helps my back. beds take up a lot of room. if you install something like that would you make it portable, so it could all be removed easily? you could make storage boxes that you put a mattress on. secure them t...

Madman that is a strong counter and one of the primary defenses against rootkits. institutions use a file compare software to discover intruders, because of the file bloat you would know that unauthorized software was in your files. but, the issue could be a forum member's computer, or many of them....

Grizz

flatnose, did your av do something with the rootkit? because unless it is successfully quarentined the hacker still has control of your computer, if it is in fact a rootkit and not just a virus named rootkit. if you have a rootkit, every time your computer is on and online the hacker has full use of...

Grizz

yeah, if you have a rootkit installed it means that a hacker has control of your machine and does whatever he wants to without you knowing or being able to see it. are you that hacker? if not it would behoove you and your friends on this forum if you would take your computer offline and get that iss...

So I wonder what the difference is. Not knowledgeable in this sort of thing. I just use this stuff.

alarming is that the bgs were that close and undetected

You have a really good eye for proportion Pitchy. Like the paint scheme too. Aircraft floats are v-bottom and have rudders to prevent leeway. with rudders you can get him to taxi in a circle.

Did someone mention that H110 is for full power loads only? It is not safe to download it to 44 russian specs in a 44 mag case, if that's the case that is contemplated. Sorry if this was covered already. How old is the lad? My son started shooting full power 44 mag in his Marlin 1894 when he was pre...

It's a movie and not a Documentary. Kinda like the line in the movie Animal House.... "Remember when the Germans Bombed Pearl harbor" that's true, but it does include the Doolittle raid showing the historic footage. hollywood plays large with the truth. in its day it was meant as entertai...

That's funny Doc, I was thinking along the lines of the Japanese finding out when the movie came out that our subs were penetrating their defenses in 41... it was all fiction but by then the couldn't be sure. I think they never tumbled to the fact that their crypto was read all the way through. Uncl...

Grizz

Model 52B,

My thought too is that part is fiction. But might it have been psy-ops against the Japanese to inch them toward surrender?

Grizz

Saw a Cary Grant movie today, Destination Tokyo, made in 44. Anyone seen it? The shore party doing recon on the Tokyo waterfront ahead of the Doolittle raid is packing a Winchester 94, I think. It's handed down to the shore boat from the sub and carried ashore strapped to radio gear. I'm thinking th...

I've never had a problem killing deer with a 338 WM with 200 to 275 gr bullets. Sometimes 4 down on one beach. I don't notice recoil when I am collecting meat.

Grizz

Looks like great fun. It is good to be able to makes stuff, eh?

Grizz

Very fine thank you for posting.

Grizz

One more thought about crimping 45/70, the need and technique can change depending on what arm you're using. For a single shot rifle no crimp is necessary as long as the bullet isn't loose. For a revolver you for sure want a good crimp to hold the bullet against recoil so it doesn't lock the action....

Grizz

Thanks. I get that. Right now I am full up on projects and not short on ammo. I think I'll do the casting in Alaska over an open fire on a beach out of sight around a couple of bends in a small invisible cove where there's plenty of alder for the taking..... and an occasional venison for processing ...
