    RL Morris pistol service and info

    I was inspired by a posting on another site about some nipple wear and figured it was time to service this pistol. This is the same maker who fabricated my 4 piece percussion and flintlock bench gun set. This is a .41 caliber. Everything I’ve read about the builder, it was not common for him to...

    Some time with the 1919 22LR conversion

    Started back on this old project. I had some pierced primers. Before shortening the spring a bit I considered whether the 22 cartridge was really seated into the 30 caliber “dummy” round. I seated them gently with a press to ensure they sat against the shoulder. There was some “stickiness” in...

    My 40x journey

    I got to thinking on one of the Taurus raging bull threads, I should write down how I got into the Remington 40x. My first rifle purchase was 40x. It was the late 1990’s and I owned a few revolvers ( king cobra= wedding present, old army and a Taurus ranging bull.) This was well into the 454...

    first homemade knife

    Started to make something useful out of the scrap piles of end mills/bits etc. (well at least I repurposed one endmill!) I was finally able to get some quality coal (500lb) and figured I’d try my hand at making a knife. Now I have an excuse to get 2x72” belt sander! I left a bit thick...

    New ruger 22 precision and night scope

    I sighted in the new 22LR ruger and ATN night vision scope. It is really more of an optical camera vs a scope. It seems to do ok, i tried it tonight, I think I need a brighter illuminator. I have a thermal that I hike with at night, this is a bit more coarse but it was cheap=to be expected...

    i got this one as a basket case. It had ftf issues. (I can't remember the forum I picked it up on, so if here-works well now= well spent 200$?) At some point a new front sight was added Kicking around in my parts I found a few peep sights. Drill holes already there. I don't mind the finish...
