.. making my Mauser C96 look petite and graceful.

All I find in searchs are ads and reviews that say that the primers are boxer and noncorrosive. No size and the ads don't show the base of the cartridge. Has anyone had any experience with "Norma .45 ACP Range & Training" ammo who can tell me the primer size? It is a new product to me, not...

Thrown out as a thought. The Mossberg 702 (and near twins made by CBC, Rossi) are widely advertised and affordable and show up on the used market at reasonable prices. M1 Carbines are wildly popular and prices are going wild. Would you buy an M1 replica stock for a Mossberg 702 or Rossi RS22...

Previous trip to the range I found a slew of discarded .22 shells each with a light strike. Out of curiosity I took them home, cleaned them up, and tried them next trip in a Heritage Rough Rider and an M6 Scout. (original firing pin strike down, my guns' strikes top) Six on top were fired...

Sounds like Biden's bid to repeal PLCAA might not be a slam dunk. Brady Campaign suit held Glock liable. The handgun was an unmodified Glock 19 9mm. Someone pulled the magazine from a Glock, [someone else presumed the gun was empty], pulled the trigger, and shot another person. Paul Bedard...

The thread Think we'll get current SBR regs thrown out? (proposed bill The Home Defense and Competitive Shooting Act of 2019) got thrown out of the Legal forum. Kinda like a Perry Mason scene: "Objection your honor, calls for speculation." But what is the Legal forum? In the Legal Forum we try...

Anyone care to read it? https://cicilline.house.gov/sites/cicilline.house.gov/files/images/Assault_Weapons_Ban_of_2018.pdf This bill is basically Dianne Feinstein's AWB 2017 slightly edited. Waiting around for an exploitable crisis (Parkland) and not really a response to Parkland. Page 1...

....not totally tongue in cheek. I had reason to re-read Chapter 1 of Wright and Rossi "Under the Gun" 1983 and was struck by recalling that polls showed that support of more gun control is inverse to knowledge of existing gun control laws. People who know the existing laws are less likely...

A storage building at Widener Reloading and Shooting Supply Inc. located on the Johnson City/Jonesborough city lines in Tennessee. A search for Widener shows it is mentioned here. It is clear that the main building on the highway where mail orders are processed and shipped (and where...

What a target rich environment! The frivilous lawsuit illustrates the danger of making the USA subject to international law and international courts: we have enough idiocy in our legal system with home-grown laws. And "Gawd look at those YOBs as old geezers when they get out" may actually...

Trying to get to THR this morning, I was distracted by this news crawl on the home page on my wife's computer: Drug poisoning deaths hit record; Kill thousands more than guns The big increase in poisoning deaths is attributed to overdose by methadone when used as a substitute for oxycotin...

Horror story My son, my cousin and some of their friends (and I) were sitting around the campfire burning windfall logs, barbequeing ribs, and swapping stories. A friend of my uncle's who had been deer hunting came out of the woods and joined us. As happens around campfires, the...

For cleaning purposes I cut (tough) paper towels into 2 x 2 inch squares (using leather shears on a stack of paper towel sheets to make 100s at a session). I use the paper towel patches (right) to wet bores with solvents and general wiping purposes. I reserve cotton cloth patches...

old S&W amd Forehamd&Wadsworth, scan of 1897 Sears Roebuck catalog, dollar store photo frame.

A friend of mine had an unexpected discharge with his C96 Mauser Broomhandle. As he explained it to me, he had been firing his gun. The last time he pulled the trigger, the gun did not fire. He noticed the safety was partially up toward "ON" safe. He pulled the safety down to "OFF" fire...

First, let's get all the jokes out of the way This is your Smith and Wesson . . . This is your Smith and Wesson on crack . . . Any questions? o Ask any (Colt/Ruger/Glock/H&K) fan: S&W ain't all it's cracked up to be. o Is that a Model 669 or a Model 666? o Too bad it ain't a...
