My health issues have stopped me from doing a whole lot of things I really enjoy. Of which shooting has always been top of the list especially with my grand son. In the last couple months I have liquidated most of my collection rather than let them sit and gather dust and give a burden to wife...

I quit hunting several years ago, mostly because of health issues. I have always kept a very nice collection of firearms just because I can now afford to. Around Christmas last year I made mention to the wife about a Cross Bow and how now with age and health I could legally use one, the next...

Over the weekend I did some horse trading and wound up with a ROHM model 66 revolver. It was just thrown in as a last second on the deal, not that it was anything I even wanted the guy just threw it in. Today I finally got around to even looking at it, to call it a Sat night special would not...

On TV today I saw and listened to an audio clip that is alleged to be the sound of gun fire the time when Brown was shot by a LEO. The sounds were of 5 +/- shots followed after a brief time and then 4 or 5 more shots. On surface that would extremely bad for the officer. Naturally the Audio...

Picked up a very rough Ruger 10-22 yesterday. Sure wish I had taken photos of the B4 and After. The previous owners since the day it was sold new apparently never cleaned the rifle EVER. After a take down the gunk was litterly 1/8" thick in places, the bore looked like the only thing down it...

There is a Mini-Series on Cina Max called “The Knick” which is about a hospital In NYC time frame 1900. One of the doctors is an African-American that is going thru his own he!! He was leaving his hotel/rooming house and I spotted something that made me back up and pause the screens. There in...

Today I pulled my SMLE out of gun cabinet, first time out in a long time. I had one stripper clip for it and thought I knew where it was hiding. Anyway I have attempted looking at a couple places that usually have odd/different parts but no luck. Any one know where I can locate just one, would...

I was reading today and the words ASSAULT WEAPON came up. The text I was reading made no mention of any particular weapon. I automatically pictured an AK47. Which made me wonder just why and how many others might chose the AK over an AR. I know that in the world of automatic weapons there...

I have a Remington made by Basika (Russian) 20ga shotgun that is still so new that it is tight as a drum. Is there a way, without damaging, the gun so it's not so stiff. When you open the breach it take both hands to get it open to load.

I was attemting to put up a post of some moron acually looking down the barrel of his shot. He wound up shooting his hat off his head and from looks got a bad burn to his face. I was trying to remove but had no luck of finishing it of gettingit off . Sorry for problems. Ok I got the link...

Picked up this Viper yesterday and have not had a chance to test fire it yet. But if looks are an indication as to the quality of shotgun I think I have a winner. I know that looks alone are not the best way to judge anything but right out of the box it is very easy on the eye. Comes with 28"...

It only took about 15 yrs but today I tracked down a shotgun that had been "REWORKED" by a true craftsman. He has passed on but he did pass on his knowledge to a young man that hopefully will only get better with age. This one is a Winchester Red Letter Model 37 which in this part of the world...

This last week I was having a discussion with my daughter about how to handle my last request. She is completely supportive of my desire for cremation after death. Then being the thrifty girl she is (takes after her dad) her suggestion as for a Cremation Urn why not just use an old Ammo Can...

Ok I didn't completely forget this one but it did get shuffled to the back of cabinet. Times I feel like the absent minded professor but then again I get to have that New Gun feeling at least twice on some of mine. In past I have found a pistol that was bought and put aside only to surface...

I would like to know if I ship a firearm to another state am I required to use a FFL to handle shipping or can I just ship to a FFL dealer in the other state. Only shipping of firearms I have ever done was when I worked for a Pawn/Gun shop.

It has been a few years since the last time I attended a Turkey shoot. This morning I actually felt good enough to leave the house before noon so off I go to a local shoot. Don't know about other areas but here they look for the closest shot to the center lines for a winner. The only 12ga I...

Learned a simple test on how to check on impact of the firing pin against shell without firing a single shot. I had a 45ACP that I took out for testing the pistol failed to fire, I examined the primer and not a single mark on the primer. While discussing this with the gun shop the owner showed...

A couple weeks ago I posted a question as to how the Circuit Judge was classified, pistol, shotgun, rifle or what. Well today I pulled out a wide selection of 45 LColt rounds, plus 2 1/2 -3" shot shells and headed out back. I don't think I ever got a definitive conclusion as to the...

For some reason I bought one of the ArchAngel stocks for my Mosin. Have mixed feeling for it but still leaning toward keeping it. However this one has detachable magazines and there is where the problem lays. Today I purchased a 10rd mag for it along with a couple hundred rounds from an...

After walking around Wally World waiting for a prescription I spotted a Circuit Judge with a price tag of $549.00 plus 9% tax. I have already owned the Judge with 2 1/2 cylinder for shot shell so I feel comfortable about buying this one. Just wondering exactly how it is classified, is it a...
