    Shooting aimlessly.

    I had a 2 week love affair with an AR-15 before I came back to my senses. During that time I realized that I would not be able to afford to feed it. Traded it for a nice Marlin 1894 45 LC.

    What is That

    Thanks Thanks everyone. I'll pass this knowledge on to my BIL.

    What is That

    The magazine is very real. I was able to insert several regular 9mm rounds into it. However, I did not see anything that looked like it would fire a cap or anything else. However, it might actually eject the rounds form the mag. What does PFC stand for?

    What is That

    Very observant folks. We do know it is not a real firearm. The only markings on it are "Made in Japan"....dead giveaway. There is no rifling in it and there is a built-in obstruction in the barrel. It appears to a knowledgeable friend of mine to be a very well made TOY. But we are all...

    What is That

    My brother-in-law was given a pistol by his friend. His friend got it from the wife of a friend who just passed away. I know what it looks like, but not familiar with them. It seems to be missing a part or two. Any one know anything much about these...

    Best Bang for Your Buck: 45/70

    I've owned 4 45-70's (Marlin 1895G, Marlin 1895CB, Ruger #1, and H&R Buffalo Classic.) I only have 2 now, the Marlin 1895 CB my favorite to hold, carry, admire, and own.....and the H&R Buffalo Classic.....my favorite to shoot at targets just for fun. If I ever had to go down to one I'd keep...

    Upgrading Reloading Equip with $$$ from Rifle Sale

    Went to Cabelas today to see what they might have after doing some research and reading everyone's comments. Long story short everything I was interested in was on sale so I left them $1,275 and left with an XD-S 9MM (mine was just made so hopefully whatever the recall was is prior to mine), an...

    Upgrading Reloading Equip with $$$ from Rifle Sale

    I just looked at the Franklin Arsenal Trim Center and liked what I saw, until I read this in one of the reviews....... "One issue, it only trims bottle neck brass so any brass such as 45-70 straight case you will have to do it the old fashioned way." The majority of the cases I trim are...

    Upgrading Reloading Equip with $$$ from Rifle Sale

    Embarrassed......I do have the Harbor Freight digital calipers. Don't know why I mentioned the plastic ones I bought in 1974 and have not used for reloading in several years. I actually used the HB ones tonight on the 444 cases I was sizing. The Case Prep station and the powder measure scale...

    Upgrading Reloading Equip with $$$ from Rifle Sale

    I've decided to take the cash from my last rifle I sold and instead of buying another rifle upgrade some of my equipment. I do not reload in large quantities and I enjoy doing things kind of slow and methodical, BUT I am doing more reloading all the time and certain tasks seem to be taking more...

    Steel Shot and Fixed Full Choke Barrel

    All good advice. Yes I am not a serious goose hunter. May never even get the chance. A friend of mine bought some blinds and decoys and wants to start, but he is so busy it may never happen. I think I'll sell the long barrel and just do with the IC barrel and 2 3/4" steel shells if I get a...

    Steel Shot and Fixed Full Choke Barrel

    Thanks for the good news. I doubt I will get a chance to goose hunt often anyway so I hated to have to buy another shotgun or barrel. Since all I really hunt with a shotgun is dove and occasionally quail, is their really any need for me to have the 30" full choke barrel chambered for 3", or...

    Steel Shot and Fixed Full Choke Barrel

    I just bought a used Remington 870 Magnum 12 ga. It has 2 barrels. An improved cylinder barrel (fixed choke) and a full choke barrel (fixed choke). I bought this gun thinking I might get a chance to go goose hunting this year and all I had was a 20 ga with improved cylinder. I figured the...

    Marlin 444XLR

    Yes I doubt game wardens are carrying any digital calipers for measuring case lengths.

    Marlin 444XLR

    I have a like new Marlin 444XLR built in 2007. I have been told that these are hard to find and now that some "shotgun only for deer hunting" states have approved them for deer that they are highly sought after. If I should decide to sell it (I just bought an older 444SS that I really like)...

    Lever action no safety question

    I just bought several of the "O" rings for my Marlins that have the CB safety. It is the "009". It fits snuggly enough it is rather difficult to get a fingernail under if your nails are as short as mine. Bought mine at an industrial gasket supply store.

    My Glenfield Model 30

    Para cord sounds nice. Mine is actually nylon boot lace. I buy black and brown. One pair does 2 Marlins. Can someone say "cheap".

    My Glenfield Model 30

    I have 8 Marlin leverguns and my Glenfield 30G is one of my favorites. I cut the barrel down to 16 1/4" and added a Vortex 1-4 V-Brite scope for night time hog hunting. Some of the birch wood is very plain, yours is very nice. Mine was almost tiger striped. BTW I looked up the characteristics...
