Friend and firearms enthusiast Steve Camp is dead at 59. Some details are posted on General Gun Discusions forum. Johnny Guest

A great firearms enthusiast and fine friend, Steve Camp, died on Friday from a brain aneurysm. Steve and I were introduced by Jim Wilson, in about 1968. Jim was a Denton cop and I a county prosecutor's investigator. Steve was a college student then, and later joined Denton Police. He retired...

For your convenience, and to reduce confusion - - There is now a new forum in the Buy/Sell/Trade area of THR. See Buy, Sell and Trade: Reloading Components and Gear. In the past, due to the specialized nature of this type merchandise, we've been pretty lenient in allowing this type...

This thread is for the purpose of posting places where Handloaders/Reloaders may be able to acquire primers. I keep hearing that the availability is improving, but the dealers I frequent never seem to have the particular product I need. If you have information, please add a post on this...

I just obtained a 1903-vintage 1873 carbine in .38 WCF. It is mechanically perfect, with a very good bore. I'd like to shoot it and perhaps even hunt with it. Since factory Winchester ammo --180 gr JSP-- is around $40 a box in my area, I'm already on the loookout for dies and such...

Just ran across a kinda neat revolver in a local shop: S&W .32-20 Hand Ejector with five-inch barrel. Serial number indicates it was produced late in the model run, probably 1938 - - 1940. Lack of wear patterns indicates this was probably a desk drawer handgun. Some rubbing at muzzle but...

My former boss has a place in Hopkins County, east of Sulfur Springs. I was there the other day, checking feeders and surveying the visible white tails. He asked me to "Look it up on your computer and see when the rut's supposed to start in this area." I hadn't seen such a thing, but he's...

Stopped off at a small gunshop yesterday and saw a new-to-me product - - - It appears to be a line-for-line copy of the Inglis Canadian execution of the Browning High Power. It has the high fixed sights, set up on humps on the slide, the ring hammer, black plastic stocks and lanyard ring. I...

I'm getting some pretty good results with Speer and Sierra bullets in my Rem 700 .35 Whelen. A while back, a local shop had a going out of business sale and I picked up a couple of boxes of some 212 gr. gas check .358 bullets. I can't find any data on these - - Not even in my 40-year old...

A problem has arisen. Just in this single forum, within the past month, there have been at least ten threads based on the "Hate" of one type firearm or another. I don't know about in the other venues. Some of the threads have been good natured and lightweight. Others have unfortunately...
