I've seen threads on this site and Calguns where members celebrate mandatory ownership of firearms in states reviewing the bill. I must disagree with this as it is forced possession and ownership of an item not ever person wants to own. My position is that you are free to own one or not and...

I appreciate the replies and I'll buy some wads before my next outing. I have also heard of bore butter and I'll give that a go too. If I continue to have problems I'll come back here with questions. Thanks again

I own an Uberti Model 1858 New Army Revolver that is a lot of fun to shoot. At the time of purchase I was told putting .45cal lead ball through the barrel wouldn't harm the firearm and would help with creating a good seal between the ball and bore. She shoots great and is a lot of fun, and I...

I'm split on illegal aliens having firearms, on one side I believe anyone who is mentally sound should be able to own a firearms, no matter what country their from. But then again they don't pledge allegiance to our nation.

Why not rim fires in particular?

I honestly just wipe her down with the same lubricating oil that comes in cleaning kits.

At this point I doubt Obama can do much about guns, he can try and pass bills but will more than likely not pass. The more lawsuits we win like Heller and McDonald the harder it will be for the government to pass bills restricting guns. He can however restrict imports of guns like he did with...

I choose blue.

It sucks that Turnbull won't do the work, and I'm sure he quoted me on a full restoration. I really want to know if a charcoal bluing will give a more accurate color or if it will hold up better. If anyone knows speak up, and if it is better would Accurate Plating get mad if I asked.

Well she's my baby, I want to make sure she is taken care of.

We only really talked about doing it in house and I would imagine if I asked he would do it. How good is his work and would having him send it to Turnbull instead give me a better color? He said for environmental reasons its almost impossible to recreate the original process.

Talked to bob and he was irritated at first because I asked to talk to him but he lightened up really quick and was extremely nice. So nice infact we talked 32 minutes, haha. He quoted me at about $350.00 and said it shouldn't go above $400.00. Looks like I found a company to go to.

Does he do polishing too?

Called fords and they said $150 to disassemble, prep, blue, and polish. Does that seem low? I wonder if I called the wrong company

I heard Fords is hard to get a hold of but they are my next best bet, gonna try and call.
