My older 550b was hitching when picking up primers; Jerry @ Dillon did some troubleshooting and we determined that the two screws underneath had eventually caused one of the sides to have two bulges where the screws met the housing & secured the priming assemble = new priming assembly and rod...

I picked this one... :cool:

New acquisition (French Railway Police issued SP101 in .38special): Installed an XS Big Dot front sight Cleaned/polished the internals Rounded the trigger as it had sharper edges, now it feels like my S&W Next up is installing new hammer/trigger shims as well as updating the springs.

.38 Special wadcutter development testing today, chasing loads that are close to the factory loads that I have on hand... I think I found them. Nice to have my Garmin Xero C1 sitting next to me recording each shot sequence 😍

Another windy day project; added an XS Sights - Big Dot revolver front sight to my BG38 :cool:

Not necessarily gunsmithing, more of an experiment when it's cold & windy outside and I have too much time to think about things. I attempted to tape off my front sight on a revolver after degreasing it and applied some of the powder coat that I use to create shiny gold speckled fishing jig...

Thx much for that tip, I used some older Russian steel cased rimfires for the test; I thought that if the lighter hammer spring ignites the primer compound in these it will certainly do it in brass... I did try a few brass ones and they went pop too :alien:

Nope.

...in Colorado :oops: So I decided to update the hammer & trigger return springs in my Trooper Mark III .22 It appears that this revolver hasn't been taken apart since it left the factory as the lubricant on various parts had turned into a sticky varnish-like consistency :uhoh: After cleaning...

I've used this tool with great success to keep the cylinder chambers relatively free of carbon fouling when using .38spcl in my .357 revolvers. I do clean after every range outing...

Hodgson TiteGroup Powder in 1 pound containers ($31.00 each) at the local Murdoch's Ranch & Home Supply locally in Colorado... I left some for y'all that are local ;)

Today I held reloading class 2.0 for my close friends that have taken an interest in learning. The husband/wife team & my elderly acquaintance came over during the holidays, they brought their own powder/primers/bullets. I had cleaned brass from our last shooting sessions and had them prep the...

In Colorado we have to do a private seller to private seller at an FFL; once the paper work has been completed we then have to wait a full three days before we're able to pick up our firearms. I've noticed that the fees are going up at most places from even a year ago, one of my favored places...

Finished 100 rounds of .45 Long Colt which will be used for woods carry :cool:

One of the best Christmas presents from my Son/DIL/Grandson... I'll be teaching the Grandson soon :cool:
