Reliability and strength arent necessarily interchangeable. Individual examples of any type can also have more or less machine marks left inside. Marlins have generally felt pretty gritty and sludgey...
I think this is certainly the case. I knew a theater group that had a rossi/puma 357 92 as a prop gun for their show. The guy in charge asked me to look at it once, as something fell out of it. The...
I believe Outpost75 mentioned whacking the cylinder lock lug on the bottom of the barrel with the babbit bar to rotate it to bring POA and POI into convergence.
When I've messed with barrels Ive...
I dont think Ive ever seen a Miroku 94. The 94s ive had have been a mix of pre-64, pre-war, and a dozen or more post 64 top ejects. The early post-64 guns had stamped carriers (lifters), I replaced...
I have a recent Winchester/Miroku 73 carbine in 357, it seems to feed 38 spl loads other than wadcutters just fine. The Marlin 94 in 357 I had in the early 80s worked fine with 38 spl also. Theres...
All good comments, though Ill add some.
The same size screwdriver tip that fits the sideplate screws can also be used horizontally to compress the rebound slide spring into the slide, install...
Im curious to know if there is or will be some legal way to modify an AR type rifle to be manually operated, such as in England. The question about how stripped lowers would be classified in a ban...
Came across this looking for vids about 1873 Winchesters. Sort of low key, even relaxing. Almost no talking.

Makes me want one with the 24"...
My current feeling is mostly not that interested in AR stuff, a mini 14 and small handful (2 or 3 each) of factory 5, 10, and 20 rd mags would probably realistically do anything id every want to with...
You have great views! Id usually leave the door open, there were pretty good views there also.
Ive heard of using lime. I had also heard somewhere ages ago about the ash, it was free, available,...

One watch, cell phone.
Two, cell and my grandfathers engraved Illinois pocket watch. I carried it quite a lot for a number of years, it was starting to show some wear and tear, so i stopped. At...
The outhouse at my first cabin seemed pretty deluxe after tipi living and nomading a few years. I spent a couple years each at 2 different cabins with outhouses before getting regular plumbing. When...
Have you considered a Remington 788 in 30-30?
The Savages arent as svelte looking as most bolt actions in general, though they seem to have been moderately popular in their day. The 788s had a...
Yeah but....out on the frontier:
"Its the little building out back. Toss in a scoop of ash from the metal can when youre done."
Dude, its the ground screw.
S&W K frame targets, earlier type, are about perfect to me. The Pachmayr K round butt compacs work for more discrete use on the 2 1/2" 19.
Trying some other loads may indeed help. The 1903s Ive had were not all happy with the same loads. In the 80s PMC was bringing in some M2 ball type ammo, one of the guns I had shot it very well,...
Ive messed with it enough in my youth to know some interesting things can be done, but never came close to what some more gifted shooters could do. One point, I heard Butler mention on one of the...

I checked a friends gun once, it felt weird. Taking it apart, it had white gunk in it. She had been admiring it while eating ice cream. Wiping it off the outside isnt enough.
We just need to keep in mind we have no information on what loads were used. Id be surprised if she was using full power 357 loads and not 38 special loads. Most people state their gun is a 357...
In the case of Taran Butler, that doesnt appear to be an issue, he seems able to hit about anything he wants to distances further than spitting distance, and evenly placed targets arent a factor....
I saved this, in the politics and news folder. Because its how I see most of the political absurdity the past few years.
And it not about "those other guys", its the guys I used to think were...
