Stopped into a gun shop yesterday and found a nice "New Haven" before Marlin moved to North Haven in late 68 1968 Marlin 336 RC 30-30 . I don't think the gun was ever used,still had the "Walnut" sticker on the forearm the bluing is barely rubbed off the top of the hammer,none of ...

I love the H&R top breaks....still looking for a Model 999 with the 4" barrel.

Sorry to hear that but I had a dog run away one time and she was gone for a week....... I was working out in the yard one day and I turned around and she was standing there looking at me........don't give up hope just yet.

What do you think of the strength of the Uberti Stallion? I have heard that they are not +P rated, or is that being overly conservative? Ideally I would like to be able to go mild .357 or 38 Spl. +P+, but maybe that is pushing things. The one that I am looking at is with the plow handle grip, and a ...

This is my second attempt at knife making,it's getting better.Made the blade from an old circular saw blade,heat treated it and buffed it with my table top buffer....The brass is made from a brass washer and buffed...Belt sanded the antler and buffed it....

Anyone know what kind of bird this is? The pair of them are building a nest in one of my bird houses. Is it just a run of the mill BLUE BIRD?? http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o320/mossyoak1957/IMG_0009_zpsjda0tju2.jpg http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o320/mossyoak1957/IMG_0011_zpsuwyvyqpq.jpg

Bowel doesn't burn the inside of the antler,it's hard as a rock inside. After I finished it I washed it in hot water and dish soap,no bad taste or smell at all. You right...... I think it's gunna be for lookin at...BUT I had to give it a try. One of our members lives in a "weed" state, an...

I was just wondering if anyone here has gotten their mitts on one of the Chiappa clones of the Marlin 39a Deluxe ?

No, but it sure looks nice. Any idea on the price?

just found it......... $380.00-$480.00

Still snowing here in PA. so yesterday on my day off I made a simple pipe out of some deer antler. The tricky part was drilling out the curved stem,drilled from one end as far as I could without going through the side then drilled through the other end and LUCKILY the to ends met up somewhere in th...

Very nice! I like the water pump also......

I bought one a few years back,brand new the thing was beautiful,never fired a shot through it,it wouldn't chamber a round from day one,tried different brand ammo nothing would chamber,took it back to where I bought it he sent it back to Chiappa's repair place somewhere here in the US but don't remem...

[quote="Sixgun"]Why? Unless one has a nostalgic and fuzzy feeling for the .444, it's like putting a .327 in a Corvette instead of a big block 454.

Hey Six,

Picked up my Ruger Vaquero "Montado" .45 LC.a few weeks back and just didn't like the look of the ejector rod so I ordered the other crescent style rod from Ruger, had to cut the rod down to the correct length because my barrel is only a 3.75 in. also had to buff the crescent to a shine b...

Well, if you're gonna use a carrying handle at least you have a good one :D I figured that 35 I mentioned was rusty as heck under those scope mounts.

If you want it and are willing to give $450 it's worth every penny. I had a chance to buy a 1963 model the other day for $300, but it had been D&T'd for a scope and had some light rust on the muzzle from being muzzle down in a pickup or whatever. I would have bought it anyway if I hadn't just b...

The way they are made doesn't lend themselves to "tightening" them up easily or with any sort of permanence. Put a tang sight on it and never look back. k Brent, I have no idea who told you that but after playing with a dozen or so of bolt peep 71's over the years, I have never seen that....
