I don't have a Rossi but I have a Winchester Trapper 16" in .357/.38. I am amazed at how easy it is to shoot .357. Not much difference between .38 and .357 to me. Mostly shooting 158 gr factory ammo. Last week I tried 180 gr Buffalo Bore and it was very easy to shoot. I have a ghost ring sight ...

jkbrea

Yeah. Probably a decent revolver but it ain't winning any beauty prizes. I like Henrys and have a .22. I never warmed up to their rifles though based only on looks. I do like the Henry 1860 rifles they make.

jkbrea

I dont have a .45 colt anymore but I really liked it. I carry a S&W model 686 7 shot .357 with a 3" barrel. It's a great carry gun with Buffalo Bore while packing ellk or hiking in big critter country.

Palm Springs. Ca gives about $1200 a month to citizens that identify as transgender. No question asked. So......what if I identify as a black transgender descendant of slaves. Can I double dip. Reparations and being tranny? If it wasn't true it would be hilarious.

jkbrea

What about blacks that owned slaves? Idiots! Destroying themselves because theyre afraid to speak out. Might lose a "like" or "follower".

jkbrea

I always clean mine on blued or stainless. It'll come of with a little elbow grease. I just use solvent and a stainles or brass brush. It doesn't scratch.

jkbrea

It may move it slightly but some shoot better. I think it's because less noise and recoil make people shoot better. I have a quick connect Omega 9K on an MP5 clone with a 3 lug mount. If I don't mount it exactly the same each time, it moves about 1/2" at 25 yards. So I marked the suppressor to ...

Probably part of their lawsuit settlement with Dominion....

Who knows...

jkbrea

Wow! I'm never complaining about recoil again

jkbrea

I have two Winchester Trappers. A 30-30 and my favorite, a .357. Even though I have several other rifles, levers, ARs, MP5....that .357 Trapper is my go to. It goes on camping trips, RVing, traveling and sits by my bed. It feeds everything I run through it and almost zero recoil. I'm really tempted ...

Maybe you're anticipating the recoil??? I've seen people on the range push the front down a bit expecting the recoil. Especially after the last shot with revolvers or slide locked back on a semi auto.

I remember a long time ago, (like 3 decades), sitting in a garage, wrenching on a Harley, sipping Jack and listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd .

My favorite band of all time. A few years back when I was a LEO, their manager asked my unit for an escort to their venue. It was out of my jurisdiction but....Lynyrd Skynyrd! We did it and I got a chewing out...but worth it. Afterwards the band was going to take us to a local place to party but the...

I found Mack's Prairie Wings last year online . I was looking online for Buffalo Bore 45-70 that I could use for elk and bear defense. BB has one in 350 gr that expands a little bit but great for grizz and elk. BB wanted 80+ and $30 shipping. Mack's sold me all 6 of their boxes for $63 each and free...

jkbrea

That wood is awesome! That would be a great elk gun! I'd just be afraid to scratch it.

jkbrea

Reading through the 32-20 thread posted by Jim reminded me of this rifle that Marlin marketed for only a short time, maybe two or three years, and I don't believe many were produced as they have always been scarce. I wanted one from the start, but have only ever seen and handled one of these. It wa...

jkbrea

Well...I hunt elk with a 45-70 or 30-06. In my opinion, that's a little much for antelope. I bought a Savage .308 for antelope but could not get consistent small groups. I don't reload so I tried several different rounds. So I sold it and bought a Sig Cross in 6.5 CM. I shot Sako TRG 136 gr, Hornady...

jkbrea

I carried a Kimber 1911 for years on duty and SWAT. Shot thousands of rounds and never had a problem other than replace the spring two or three times. Mine was very accurate and reliable . I shot the micro 9 but it moved around in my hand too much. I just couldn't get a good hold on it.

jkbrea

I'll take 30-30 over either the 45-70 or the "maybe obsolete in a couple years" .360. I've always had several 45-70s around, but just don't get the use and versatility out of them I do with my 30-30 chambered rifles. I'm kinda the opposite. I have a couple 30-30's that I love. A 1961 Winc...

I didn't put this in politics because it may apply to several members and potentially make you a felon. Gun Owners of America made this video at ShotShow. What it boils down to is if you have a pistol with an arm brace, it is going to be classified as a short barreled rifle,(SBR). You have 120 days ...

jkbrea

My favorite 9mm "pistol". It does go through a lot of ammo quickly. My G-kids love it though. On the falling plate racks, they rarely miss using the red dot.

20220824_171609.jpg

jkbrea

I sometimes carry a Springfield EMP in 9mm. It's a 1911 style but smaller than the Ronin. It is awesome to shoot. Followup shots are very quick. Enjoy it!

jkbrea

I had a great time fall and winter hunting in Wyoming. My middle son came out and we put in a lot of miles hiking. He got a small bull elk (5×4) and an antelope. I ended up with an antelope earlier and a calf and cow on the elk refuge "hunt" last month. That hunt is crazy but really fun on...

jkbrea

I just shipped a gun UPS to get it rebarreled. They did it but I was told they were changing policies on shipping and so is fedex. I was told that part of the problem is major thefts in larger cities by employees. A local shop here told me two of their ordered rifles were stolen coming to Wy from Sa...

jkbrea

Just a few more pics. Really beautiful out here. I'm all recovered from packing that bull elk :cry: . Now I have an elk cow tag and my wife has a buck antelope tag! If any forum member ever draws a tag out my way, I'd be glad to help you out. 20221010_174336.jpg 20221011_121938.jpg 20221011_133216.j...

jkbrea

Yeah. Normally I use my 30-06 for everything, or 45-70 if bears are around. I run the gub club here and by far, the most popular caliber for hunters is a 300 win mag....with a huge muzzle break and a huge high power scopes. Nice rifles but here most of the terrain is heavily wooded so most shots are...

jkbrea

I was so fortunate my middle son got to come out and elk hunt with me this year. We hunted really hard putting in about 6-8 miles a day, some in really steep lung busting terrain. After a few days we took a break and went antelope hunting in Pinedale. That was a fun hunt. A UTV sure makes it easy. W...

jkbrea

Thanks OldWin! It was great, but short visit. Next time you all come out, I'll show you some great fishing holes, 4x trails..and more guns!
PS...you have some great sons. Made me miss mine, but ones coming elk hunting next week!

jkbrea

Hey all. It was great meeting Jay and his sons. What a great family! Wish they could have stayed longer. And Sixer...the topic of you came up...hahaha. I gotta get out there..or you're welcome out here anytime. You can shoot anything out here at our range, belt fed, 50 cals, mini guns....whatever yo...

jkbrea

About $150. Where do I send the check!
Just kidding....
What caliber, year...etc

jkbrea

Hahaha...had me going. I thought you went nuts and were confessing online!!!!

I did the same to some coyotes that killed my mini aussie .. laid on top of my fifth wheel trailer all night. This was in a fairly large city and neighbors weren't thrilled. Miss that dog.

jkbrea

The 586 and 686 revolvers are awesome. I regret selling a 4" 686 that was my first duty gun. I like my semi-autos but now my favorite carry gun is a 3" 7 shot 686. It's comfortable to carry all day.

jkbrea

Thank you. Had a good day. Shot a couple rifles and took the Harley for a nice ride near the Tetons.

I have a 10.5" PSA upper and Anderson lower. It did the same thing...firing 3-6 round bursts. The hammer was chipped. It was a cheap fix. I just replaced it with a mil spec trigger assembly.

jkbrea

If I recall correctly, it was a starter pistol.

jkbrea

Had one of these in our home growing up. Must have been a 30 lb trigger pull!!

I like the Leupold EER scopes with a quick release for hunting. I have them on a 45-70 and TK30-30. They stay zeroed when you pop them on and off.

I got a Rock Island Armory 12 ga semi auto. It's Turkish made and runs awesome. It's the most fun shotgun I've ever shot. The AR platform and aftermarket buttstock removes almost all recoil. I can unload a 20 round drum of slugs with no pain. And that's with a shoulder replacement. 5 shots with my R...
