Thanks ,
The guy in the YouTube video having the 12” barrel with an adjustable butt stock. How can that be legal as in
Short barreled rifle ?
What if one made a longer flash suppressor to bring the barrel to say 16 1/4” and welded it to the barrel ?
Would he then be legal ?

I bought a Aero M5 .308 stripped lower for a project gun. I have built a couple AR15’s , simple. In looking for parts I see different length gas systems and carbine and rifle length buffer/recoil springs systems. Can a mid or rifle length barrel be used on a lower with a carbine buffer/recoil spring...

good one ! I immediately thought “ tool post grinder for the lathe” . You got me !

The Cowboys , John Wayne .

That should last forever.

Obvious lay it’s going to need larger bullets cast specifically for it. I have been down that road some.

My .454’s are enough fun for me. That is just insane ,but fun to watch.

I like that !

And all in one day. You make me feel tired.

What Griff said +1 . I would remove the guide, inspect the parts and replace damaged parts as needed before further use.

I have had that same problem with my early Marlin .35 Rem. Casting the bullets of 30:1 alloy solved the chambering issue in mine and they shot wonderfully accurate. I switched to the RCBS bullet cast of wheel weights to allow higher velocity for hunting Deer But for range plinking the soft bullets w...

Cool , probably has never even been strung up.

My dad bought one of the first year production Ruger BlackHawk .41 mags. it took me many years later to own one but now own three. They fit right in between the .357 and the .44 mag nicely. You do NEED one for sure.

Having several levers that use straight walled cases , that would be a hard decision to make.
Eany meany miney mo ....444 it is !

It looks like the second shooter has an unsafe sear engagement issue. That club must not check shooters equipment for safety.

They look good to me but I already have several single sixes. I am sure they will be a big hit and hold up well.

Nothing wrong with nostalgia . I own both new and old guns of all designs. When I hunt or just plink for fun,most of the time it’s with a lever gun.

I have a Canadian Centennial with ,I believe, 26” barrel. It is a very accurate rifle. It’s one of the most accurate 30-30’s I have ever fired.

Congrats ! That’s not all that common these days.Teresa and I are only two years and a month behind you.

LOL !!!

Prayers for your dad friend.

Old maids.

Roller for sure.

I have a Saeco hardness tester. I mostly use it to compare batches of alloy of unknown mix. It works well but no way to check accuracy or calibration.

That’s to prevent them from being converted to fully semiautomatic fire.

that’s about my speed .

I like !

Those fellers pretty much covered the how to’s. Get to it !
I started back in the 60’s casting .36 cal. Round balls in a Dixie Gun Works $13 mold and never stoped. I now have 75+
molds. Start with a new Lee mold. The new ones are not bad molds and work quite well.

We have a 14 year old Yorkie that is going down hill. He has had a rough life after having a bad back injury several years back. Now he falls a lot due to his front legs being arthritic and just old age. I don’t like to think of loosing him. He has been my best buddy all those years. Sad for your lo...

Good one !

Prayers for your friend.

I have a Chappy also. Mine is in .50-95. I haven’t shot it in a long time but it’s a good shooter with loads it likes.

Thanks , and the same to you friend !

Thanks for the link.

I’m waiting for a consecutively numbered pair.

Holley trees were grown locally commercially for the Christmas trade and shipped world wide.Fake Holley decorations killed that many years ago. Holley trees don’t normally grow large so finding large enough pieces to make grips is fairly difficult and they command a premium price when quality blanks...

Thanks guys ! Some people don’t understand that due to the short draw distance of a crossbow they don’t accelerate an arrow nearly as well as a regular bow does. A non compound crossbow needs two to three times the draw weight of a long bow to achieve similar velocity. Compound crossbows are a diffe...

It must have been heavy. Interesting gun none the lass.

Grizz , it’s only 150# bow. I originally ordered a 250# but the maker had an operation on his foot and was out for a couple months. I contacted him and took this one that he had in stock. I have no idea on bolt speed. It is just a fun project and a wall hanger in the end. I have a large box crammed ...

Yup , nice and bright. Since I started wet tumbling with SS pins ,all my brass comes out looking like that.

Powder scale for Fred Flintstone ?

5/16” brass or aluminum rod.

Fun ! Good job !

Fun ! Good job !

I have never owned one but have refinished the stock on one. I like the design and feel of them. Early steel frame guns would be what I would want.

Some more shots of it assembled.

This has been a fun project. I can’t imagine making one without the use of electricity or modern tools.
