GREAT pics. I would treasure shots like that of my Dad and me!

I count and date all the rounds I have loaded. I could go back and see what I have left of those stored but it wouldn't give me a yearly count to the number shot in a year. (Close, maybe?)

I sort of agree, but: I signed up for a service revolver match last year where I shot my S&W M66 and wanted to study the "best" accuracy shooting bullet weight for that course: 25-50yds. I have molds for .38 caliber from 105gr to 168grs. The vertical impact difference between light and heavy is...

That Kephart looks useful!

Cute camp. What's that in the B/W pics, a skunk? My neighbor, across the road in Colorado fed his dog at home on his porch. Neighbor raised a couple of generations of skunks under that porch. Them and his cats got along just fine and the dog, FINALLY, under threat of yet another wintertime bath...

Enjoyable article. Made me go check out the wife's kitchen assortment for compliance and then I had to go look at my hunting knives to check the balance point.

Scary at 1st look but those grooves are in the frame and don't appear to be coming from the mouth of the barrel so they don't look like fractures. Weird though...

Some years ago a Dad brought his kid to our gun club to shoot trap with his NEF,HR or Marlin (I don't know which or what gauge single shot), he must have been 8-9 years old. The kid killed those birds at the short line. Some of us spectators got together and bought him another round or two just...

My old gunsmith "friend" told me when he talked me into buying a Gold Cup Slide, Collet Bushing, Barrel and Link he had laying around, instead of having my REAL gunsmith rebuild my Bullseye gun after 20K rounds that if I moved the slide back 1/4"before rotating the collet to remove it, it would...

My 1990-91 Model 66 has no pin while my earlier Model 19 does. One shoots about as well as the other. The thing that bugs me about the Model 66 is I can feel my cleaning rag being compressed as the jag passes through the frame. The Model 19 doesn't do that. It's uniform from muzzle to forcing cone.

I have some 1950, 52 and 1966 LC carbine ammo that I would break down for the bullets if it weren't such a PITA. It shoots REALLY dirty so, in the mean time I save it for new users to shoot when I'll have plenty of time to clean up after.

You made me go look up my old loading data: oldest is March 1981. All it says is: 5.1gr Unique, Fed 100 primer, crimped flush; so probably a Lee wadcutter? I was casting round balls for my Muzzleloader by then but it looks like it took me a few more months/years to develop any kind of...

Oh, and doesn't the breech face of Bushmaster 15's gun look like it's Parkerized in his pic? Perhaps I am mistaken and a better pic would change my mind?

For y'alls amusement I have to describe the CMP "Special" Garand I bought from them in 1998. These were the "Special" selected rifles that were in either very good shape OR largely correct according to the new CMP (no longer the DCM) guidelines and totally different from the later "Special"...

The little girl is cute and obviously a better shot than the "average gunowner" who is still waiting for someone/anyone to invite them to their back 40 to show them how to shoot their new Gat. Others of us have been shooting .44's, .45's, .357's. 9mm's for decades but wish to limit our civilian...

When I used to shoot in a Bulleye league back in the 80-90s I used the Lee #90348 Hensley and Gibbs style 200 gr SWC to good effect. The Lee # 90463 200 gr SWC shot just as well but I thought the H&G bullet left cleaner holes. I never had any trouble feeding SWC but my Smith knew I was shooting...

The two magazines that came with the Mustang Pocketlite I've owned since 1992 carry 6 rounds each.

I would suggest that Gunsrfun1 obtain 5 snap caps and practice dryfiring his J-frame 15-30 times 2-3 days a week while concentrating focus on the (miniscule) front sight. I started shooting the Service Revolver EIC course last year which requires a one handed grip and the Rapid stage is shot at...

My guns run fine. I've tuned the ejector to cast the brass behind me where the grass (weeds) are mowed rather than down the slope in front of me where it is not. Trimming a coil or so off the ejector spring accomplishes that w/o otherwise affecting the way the guns run.
