Agree with Stony, I worked in Law Enforcement my entire career with my head held high but suddenly someone in Colorado advises me i am dirty----- and i always thought criminal codes required some form of intent to commit a felony, an accusation that i take deeply.

big seven, Sorry but Singer did not make even one Carbine, they made some receivers and other parts on contract for other prime contractors-- most of the receivers they made were for Underwood if memory serves me correctly. Singer was deeply involved in other contracts throughout the war...

In 1995 I received a 1911 in a holster, belt and pouch a fellow brought back from " The Great War". I soaked the pistol for days before it was removed from the holster, badly pitted. The pistol shot like a new one and the three then loaded mags are still in my stash used on a regular basis...

I like short rifles and the little Rossi is a neat size to pack in heavy cover, i would rather have a small loop on it, however, the large loop is cool if not used primarily as a hunting rifle. When I visit Texas i always have something short for hogs, AAC Handi Rifle, Ruger Ranch and a few...

With an 18" barrel,you are not trying to hide the rifle so why not put a Magpul Fixed carbine stock with a medium recoil pad for an inch or so extension., I have one on one of my Smith 15-22's and with a scope and bipod it makes a great distance plinker. That stock maintains the sporting...

Mosby, You have a great pistol that has obviously served it's country well, in the condition presented I would judge the value of an unmolested (as far as parts swapping) Springfield between $1500 and $2000 (with the worn holster, pouch and belt). The great thing about this pistol other...

Craig Old Spot is close to your description, taken near Canton Texas but no Hog Hammer, i am holding a AAC Handi rifle in 300 Blackout using a 125 gr TNT bullet. He went about sixty yards and croaked. It is all in the location of the hole you put in them.

Bannockburn, All of my Winchester SRC's have a distinctive ring wear pattern on the receiver, I am one of those who belives a weapon showing a small amount of honest wear enhances the appearance greatly without reducing the operation of the weapon at all. After that 92 sees a scabbard for...

Old School, I made some comments on your other post.

stocks are hand fitted and numbered to the rifle, at least Win and Uberti number them I cannot remember if Rossi does theirs, anyway each tang is not that much different but you are dealing with two separate parts that get ground at different times probably by different people. It is possible...

Hey wadda ya doin with my rifle? Probably wore it out by now! Nice knife, that must be mine too!

Tej, I carry a velcro wrist brace in my shooting box, before shooting i wrap my strong wrist and have no problems shooting or afterward. I no longer fire pistols ( or rifles for that matter) with large amounts of recoil, .45 acp is about the max in my recoil tolerance now.

I have not fired a .45 but my 9mm is one smooth shooting pistol, it is slim and disappears under clothing. My 9 mm mags were difficult at first but like others have found they ease upl quickly. The Shield is a real keeper.

You are right this pistol, because of the long trigger does take a lot of practice to punch small groups, I guess i was a "professional" in past years and i would not have chosen this pistol for any kind of PPC or match shooting. I shoot my SCCY at cans and rocks or blow chunks of brick into...

If you are able to purchase a S&W M&P .22 Compact in that lovely state I would check that pistol out. Both my and my buddies M&P's work flawlessly, his with a supressor much of the time. Many a trapped Texas feral hog has bit the dust to these pistols, one pop in the brain and you have...

Jelly jar, That is a nice pistol to play with even if a bit dated technology, i do not know if they incorporated a shorter pin but carrying it in my pocket with the hammer cocked and safety on is a little unnerving. There are so many better CC firearms available today than in the sixties it...

Tahunua, No one has said this is a target pistol nor for long range shooting, it is an in close defensive pistol and i can shoot mine accurately enough at ten yards to hit my target just where i want ( unless he is shooting back then things get more difficult). Whom are you referring to as...

Hey nice knife glad it finally got blood on it:) Whitey is toast so now it is the kneeling boar next on the list....go home and load some ammo.

Acera, Thanks I will update the springs in my pistol, the ten round mags are more than enough for me.

The Browning "Baby" is not one of J Browning's works even though some of his ideas are incorporated within. If memory serves me correctly John's son Val and FN developed the Baby. So we have three completely different pistols in this thread : the Colt 1908 25, Spanish Astra and copies made...
