Ok the new to me 99 is now in my greasy little paws....and I am trying to figure out just when this sucker was made....it has some early features like brass round counter on the side, but getting the serial information with my weak google-fu is failing me. I am getting some conflicting...

...the plastic there does not look quite correct....there is a little bump there. Take off the specs and sure enough there it is....a crack. WELL *&^#. I am thinking so a little super glue....epoxy...just how do you fix this. Well lets look online see if numrich or whatever they are called...

A couple of the other threads made this thought pop into my little peanut mind....I know squirrel. And I do tend to ramble....but will try to keep it short. I think I am safe in saying people shooting is more popular now then it has been in years gone by. More indoor ranges, nice fancy clean...

I have a 16g auto 5 made in 1926....and I am pretty sure it has not been apart for ANY REASON since 1927....to say this is gooky is an understatement. I am having issues getting the pin out of the bolt....I know it has to come out to remove the bolt, but that sucker is not moving.....it is...

It just came in this week....got it installed and aside from looking like it fell out of 1995 seems ok. There is quite a bit to it. Looking for people that actually USE THE THING. I don't care if your brothers, wifes, cousins, sisters, husband said this or that.....what do actual users...

45-70 Trapdoor.....questions. First off I have reloaded for quite a few years, but I have not loaded for anything this old....and this "weak".....and I want to keep my face....for some reason the wife likes it....I really can't figure out why.... I am going to cross post this on several...

Lets say you are working off an online document (reputable) and are looking over recipes and are going to cook one up. Now you are putting it in a gun you have never shot before....you know it is safe and all that jazz....you know this is a bit like this other cartridge (that you don't own, but...

Now first off sitting in the vet so these numbers are off the top of my head. I see the attraction to TB, but the pressure seems high over others. A light load is around 12 grains of TB...and pressure over 20k CUP....but the "oldies" are in the teens....I think varget and 4895 are in the low...

The RSO thread got me thinking.....not so much an RSO thread but the people that use ranges. I will leave out public ranges as they flat frighten me. One club has these baffles up....think like a highway sign filled with concrete I think...they stand up on I-beams. This is so "a bullet never...

Well perhaps not.....really it reminds me of the saying. This really goes with the explain the Ruger #1 thread only another way....I think I might feel the same way about the AR as the #1 guy feels about the #1....I really don't get it. Yea you can make it anything you want it really is like...

Wonder if there is any interest in this kind of thing only for Air guns: https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/rimfire-prove-it.836805/ Only thing I can't figure out is the distance....some of us have air guns that would shoot 50 yards and give groups that would be on par with the rim...

I still get quite a few gun magazines....I am old, and I enjoy them...plus they are pretty darn cheap....so here we go. Just last night a magazine came in...the name really does not matter as I have seen this trend in about all of them....and yes I know my $12 per year means nothing to...

I just don't get it. Yes I own one....just one, and I have owned it for over 30 years. Colt HBAR. It shoots fine, works fine....but I just don't get the rabid....and many are rabid fans. The magazine thread brought this up....I don't get why a product would be discounted if it did not have...

Ok...I know there is a thread somewhere on a "show your reloading area" so some such noise....not what I am looking for. Here is what I had....a 4x8 sheet of MDF with the presses bolted to it, sitting on some bathroom cabs that had all the other reloading stuffs in it, plus a few stand up cabs...

I am puzzled here....this is not my fist time at this, but really puzzled. The rifle is an old Carcano in 6.5. I have some factory partizan brass that I have used for quite a while....shot the factory loads, and reloaded them for a few years. (this is not a lot of shooting...I bet they have...

I am looking at getting a new chronograph....looking at the caldwell G2, and wondering if anyone else has any suggestions. Things I like are the lights....I plan on using this for my air rifles as well and those are shot indoors, so lights are a plus. Bluetooth may be nice but I read some...

I am not talking about gunbroker....I am talking James Julia or Rock Island. Has anyone ever had dealings with them. Really thinking about using their services to expand my collection....but I have never used them before. I have my '03 FFL and have bought stuff online before so I would bet...

I am not a big fan of "What is" threads....but in looking at them, and I am watching software do all the work this morning....why not. Now I am not talking about that 45acp luger...What is in your budget....or just a tick out of it that you are going....I have always wanted one of those...

Reading another thread made this question pop in my mind.... How many of a specific "flavor" do you make up to test.....by flavor I am talking about your loading X powder and Y weight with A bullet and B primer. How many do you do before you decide this might be worth doing more...

I am looking for ideas, and hopefully some photos. Getting a little nutty on finding brass.....I shoot mainly old military stuff, so finding 7.5 french is not going to happen during a trip to the walmarts. The bolt guns are easy...but the automatics...that is a little different. So guys lets...
