No one laughing here....I have a 7.65x21mm s&w ez. The ez will feed and fire .32 acp and frenchy longues but will not self-cycle them. I briefly owned a 7.65x21mm s&w shield + 17 shooter. It would not feed or fire the shorter cartridges like the ez did/does. I was showing the shield + to my ...

I don't suffer so much with the ringing varieties of tinnitus so much as the "diesel exhaust rumbling" rarities. As I type this I can hear what sounds to me like an idling piece of heavy equipment in the not too far distance. No one else but me can hear it. Open a door or go outside and th...

To save the trouble of taking fotos or producing a video just use your imaginations. Visualize a wonky-eyed short round man who is so hopelessly caucasian that only vampires & albinoes are paler firing the above antique revolver with an obvious and pronounced flinch.

B.T.T. The one tight chamber just needed that case to be sized. The other four were tried with new, unsized starline .44 colt brass. Just got around to firing 5 primer only wax bullets out of it and hit all five on/near mark at five paces. Now if I can only garner the courage to load and fire 5 with...

I was looking at a map of the peccary's range/distribution and there is a large gap in west texas & north-central mexico. I guess it has something to do with habitat & elevation. Does anyone know why they are absent there ?

Just a spritz of ballistol water mix 1/7 to as weak as 1/10 will clean those. Generic mil-spec. c.l.p. will do almost as well. Even wd-40......

There used to be clamp-on front and rear sights advertised in the gun glossies classifieds but I don't see them anymore. There is supposed to be a way to launch a modified arrow from a 12 ga. with repeatable 25 yd. accuracy. You can even convert to a muzzleloader of sorts..... https://www.gunadapter...

I always longed for a Marlin 94 in .32H&R but could never afford one likewise, the Henry .327. I wondered if they would feed the .32S&W and how many rounds the magazine would hold. My henry .327 feeds h&r correctly but does not with longs so it will obviously not with "shorts".
