    Cheapest handgun you would trust for defense...

    I have a Norinco 213. People tend to put them down but check them out. Very reliable, easy to handle. Thin. Will handle any +p or +p+ ammo. They feel good in the hand and are accurate. Down side is they are a bit big. Pretty heavy, and people will ridicule you if you pull one out.

    Don't Think I Was Out Of Line But I Pissed The Guy Off.

    If you take an interest in people you won't piss them off. You are treating these people with contempt. People naturally feel offended when treated with contempt. I always greet people with a smile and some very light comment, usually about the weather. You are in the same boat with these...

    kid has outgrown his 22lr

    Get him a 45/70 in single shot. That will teach him more about shooting than any other gun.

    New Gun--- Rust colored patches

    Hi Folks, I just bought a new Savage MarkII 22 rifle from Wallyworld. I started the initial cleaning and inspection that I always do with any gun I get. When I got to the bore, noticed that it had been fired (probably tested at he factory) but the patches were showing a brown color. Have sent a...

    Building a 22WMR from scratch

    Ugh, the guy I was going to buy the lathe from backed out of the deal. I couldn't get it right away because I have a little Honda Civic and couldn't round up a truck today. He said he would hold it for me but then called back and said he changed his mind about selling it. Bummer.

    Building a 22WMR from scratch

    Good question. I do believe that the bore of a 22lr is smaller than that of a 22WMR and that the revolvers that shoot both have bores that are sloppy for a 22lr. The barrel that I have was pitted so I lapped it with compound. I haven't slugged it to see just how much I took off but it is...

    Building a 22WMR from scratch

    Very nice work. I was afraid to weld to the barrel. That is why I went to the piece of pipe sleeve pinned on with the welding done on the pipe prior to attaching to the barrel. Had I known that I could weld the barrel, I would have welded the lug to the barrel as you have. I do not have a mill...

    Building a 22WMR from scratch

    Yes the snyder would be a little easier than a trap door. Good idea. I will have to see what route I will go when the trigger assembly gets here and I look at how to incorporate that into it. I am supposed to get a metal lathe today. Couldn't find anyone to go with me though and probably wont...

    Building a 22WMR from scratch

    Anyone out there have advise about this project; I am building a 22WMR. I bought a barrel from a Marlin Model 60 22lr and reamed it to accept a 22WMR. So I also bought a piece of schedule 80 pipe with 3/4" id. I reamed it out so it was more true to round and I turned the barrel taper just a...

    Fondest Memory you have shooting

    First Deer I guess the fondest memory I have shooting is my first deer. i was 13 years old. My dad took my buddy and myself and stuck us on the other side of the land where he was hunting. We both had Mil surplus rifles. Mine was a Model 1917 Enfield 3006. It had that marvelous peep sight. I...

    looking for a .22 plinker

    I have a Heritage Rough Rider with both 22 and 22 mag cylinders. Got the gun without the extra 22 mag cylinder, then bought the Mag cylinder (they sell the extra cylinder for $29.95 + shipping. The gun, extra cylinder, tax, FBI background check total came to just under $180. The gun is fun but...

    Casting Lead is scarce around these parts - where can I git me some?

    As a noob, I purchased on eBay after studying that source for a couple of weeks for a good deal. Best I found was raw wheel weights for (presmelted over $1.50 per lb. After smelting came out to about $2 per lb. THAT IS ABOUT THE BEST YOU WILL FIND ON EBAY. I am a member now of Cast Boolits...

    .22 Rimfire Crimping Tool

    Thanks for the tip, Blue68f100. I will keep that in mind. Actually I have gone to an entirely different process of swaging. My old method was slow so, I went and reengeneered my swaging process. Foolishness! I have worked on the swaging die for MONTHS now and have finally gotten a good die to...

    .22 Rimfire Crimping Tool

    If you just want to tighten up bullets the collet crimper is what you want. Those pliers crimpers are very finicky. You can only do one squeeze with them and since the brass length varies a tad bit in length, you may get a slightly off the mark crimp line. If you try to crimp it again it just...
