+1. When I was a (very) stupid teenager, I forgot a .410 was loaded, and blew a hole clean through the wall of our house from about that same 20 feet. It was #6 shot, 11/16 of an ounce, and a full choke. (These details are seared on my brain!) It left a hole about one inch across clean through...
I've got all the free once-used hulls I could ever want from my local skeet range. The only primers I can get right now are the Cheddite/Clerinox brand stuff made in Europe. I've heard there ARE size differences between these and the primer/pocket size on American (Winchester/Remington) shells...
Please note: I am deliberately NOT mentioning a brand name here, because that will immediately sidetrack all discussion into arguments about that and other brand names. This is about personal tastes and aesthetics, which are not unique matters to any particular make, market niche, or model.
So...
Okay, over the last year or so I lost a LOT of weight, about 90 pounds. I went from a pretty beefy guy to downright lean (I look a lot more like my dad now.)
But now I'm finding some of my long guns actually kinda hurt to shoot. I never had this problem before, and I wonder if the "fat pad," for...
Agree with everything said so far. The Marlin was designed after smokeless powder was known and has a locking bolt action. I own one in .44 Magnum; if the action can handle that with any kind of steel, it is stronger than any gun designed in the black-powder era. (Ok, except maybe the Remington...
I was going through my little shell collection, and found a single, lonely .30-40 Krag case I found about 8 years ago now that I had forgotten about. I also,once upon a time, found a single.32 Smith & Wesson (the original shorty from the 1870s, not Smith & Wesson Long). I have literally never...
I have heard of that sabatoged ammo too. I heard it was created in the Vietnam War, left in Viet Cong stockpiles. IIRC, the rounds were filled with plastic explosives.
I've never met a serious anti-gun type who had the required knowledge and equipment to do something like this, even with just...
I've only been to a few different Cabela's stores, but I seem to recall they once had at least one box of just about every caliber of ammo known to man. Now? It feels like 50% or more of whatever they have is 5.56 or .308.
So that is a 795 receiver and a Model 60 barrel? How much force did it take to get the original barrel out of that receiver and then to insert the new one? Some have said here the barrel may be press-fitted as well as pinned. Is that what you found?
This is General Discussion instead of gunsmithing because I'm interested in general opinions on feasibility, not "how-to."
So I bought a very junky Revelation 120 years ago ....
Pictured: Not my own gun
and have had the barreled receiver:
...knocking around ever since. It's followed me...
Having real weapons on set around people who are clueless with guns was always stupid. I can't believe they still have them, when just about everything except recoil is easily faked. As for the guns that might enter the market, the U.S. has hundreds of millions of firearms. A few thousand is a...
CNC-machining as we know it may not have existed in the 1930s, but machines designed to reproduce carved wood objects definitely did. These look a lot like pilot holes to keep the grips steady while the checkering was applied, either by man or machine.
That button is probably to raise and lower the rear sight, not to hold it on. In such cases, the Internet is your friend. Here is a sight identical to yours for sale elsewhere. Looking at the pictures provided, there are two screw holes on the back of the base, neither of which correspond to...
