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...

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...

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...

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)...

I am helping my good friend with Parkinson's disease sell his guns. With your help I already sold all but the pump rifle. It is a 1974 Remington 760 BDL Game Master with a 6X Leupold scope on Weaver mounts and rings, 2 boxes of ammo (90gr HP & 100 gr SP), and a new soft rifle case. The...

I have a very good friend with Parkinson's disease that wants me to help sell his guns. I need help identifying and pricing this shotgun. Receiver says "St. Louis Arms Co.", left barrel says "Bored by Skilled Mechanics", right barrel says " Blue Diamond Steel", serial number on barrels...

Tuesday I will receive a new Stainless Bisley 44 with the 3.75" barrel. I held one a year ago and fell in love with it, but didn't buy it. One came up on Gun Broker last week and I couldn't resist. It is going to need a good serviceable holster. I am looking at the Diamond D Leather Guide's...

I am about to load for 35 Rem for general hunting of deer, hogs mainly, and maybe eventually an elk at close range someday(bucket list). Factory Remington 200gr Corelokt SP shoots about 2067 fps in my 336. An RCBS 200gr cast bullet over 31 grains of Rel#7 shoots about 2063 fps (both...

I have been buying 45-70 bullets from one manufacturer and recently decided to try another. The new bullets on the left in the photo look pretty good, but the lube is flakey and tends to not stay in the groove uniformly. The old bullets on the right look even a little better. The old bullets...

I have been using an RCBS Rock Chucker Jr. single stage press since 1978, I load a few 270's, quite a few 44's, and more and more 45-70's. It does a job that satisfies me and I enjoy the slow methodical pace of the reloading process. However, it is slow. A big day of shooting for me is like...

Went buffalo hunting today. Notice the old buffalo grazing next to the telegraph pole out on the dry buffalo wallow. He is just a dark dot on the old dry lake. He was 167 paces out when I saw him. Don't ask me how I knew, I just felt it so. I took my 45-70 single shot, the one with the...

I just received my new Skinner Peep sight in the mail. It looks great just sitting on my Guide Gun. I plan to install it later this evening. In the meantime I started just taking it apart to see how it all fits together. I removed the set screw holding the aperture post so I could see how...

Montana Bullet Works has been my preferred bullet maker. However, in the year and a half I have used him Dave has been out of business for a total of about 5 months in 2 separate incidents. In October he had the following note on his web page 10/16/13 - Due to an upcoming surgery, I will not...

I am looking at a used Buffalo Classic 45-70 with a serial number of HU 358040. Is there a way of determining the age of this rifle. I would prefer it be a few years old and avoid being built under the direction of Remington. It has a "P" in a circle after the words "45-70 GOVT" on the barrel...

Last year I bought a really nice 1972 Super Blackhawk that has not had the transfer bar conversion. I love the "feel" of the action and all the classic characteristics of the old single action revolver. I consider myself a safe gun handler with many years of experience. However, XhXt happens...

I have a Marlin 1894 (1989 vintage) and it did not come with swivel mounts. I looked online at Uncle Mikes and got bad quality reviews so I ordered a Blackhawk brand. It is the 2 piece device that clamps on to the magazine tube. It suggests using a thread lock adhesive to secure the device to...

Don't know if true or not, but I just got an email saying the EPA was making it so hard on them that the last lead smelting plant in the US will close Dec 31, 2013. I hope that is not true. If it is how do you think it will affect our sport and firearm ownership in general.

Only interested in one specific powder bullet combination, 300 gr LFN cast lead bullet using 2400 powder. I know it's a long shot but maybe someone has used this specific combination and can tell me the max amount of 2400 you have used with the 300 gr bullet and what your experience was. I'd...

Hope it's OK to link to a post I made on the Marlin Owners Forum. I just bought a nice little Marlin 1894 and started working on developing a good heavy cast lead load for it. Rather that regurgitating it all again you can go to this link if interested for the whole story. Of course I would...
