Hey - welcome to THR!
Since my initial work with pics to help the process, I added a more detailed video on YouTube with commentary - could be that will be of use to you and others. I think I forgot to add the link to it.

Ed ........
I happen to have used 4759 for experimental rifle reloads with hard cast lead bullets and have quite a lot of it. Just interested re what loads you have found useful with that for 12G plastic hulls (whether compression formed or not etc) - and whether shot or slug etc. If you...
A web search on the Browning Hi-Power will actually probably find you an article with details - the FEG is a very close clone. Steven Camp has a site which may give info - http://www.hipowersandhandguns.com/
Basically ..... remove mag and clear chamber - safety first. Pull slide back until...
Pauly,
I am not familiar with a version as old as yours and can only judge by mine which is approx 10 years old but would expect things to not have changed much over the years. The tube mag is normally a 15 round max capacity. Your ''grabbers'' are the extractors and from my observations both...
Probably should have started a new thread for this but - I'd check out Starline brass - they seem to produce most everything. I use them for some excellent 45-70 brass.

Some folks call this loosely a "Derringer" tho that's debatable. OTOH it is small (very small!) and so inherently pocketable. With the .22 Mag rounds it is supposed to achive approx the same MV as a std .22LR from a rifle - maybe around 1200 fps . not stellar but not shabby either IMO.
Nicely...
The THR "Ghost" here!!!
Larry kindly sent me some links after we had a very pleasant chat via Skype this evening - what a great way to stay in touch.
Excellent thread and super pics ..... oh to have been there. Larry said Art drove 750 miles for it - guess for me that'd be nearer 1200 to...
No updates I am afraid! Despite wanting to run exhaustive tests time never seems to allow.
My thinking right now is twofold -
1) - The alteration to something approximating a wad cutter certainly punches much nicer holes in paper - whether grouping greatly superior have not really evaluated...
Two comments - Marlin 45 - not sure of meaning of ''caveat" - maybe I didn't read back far enough. Anyways, JMO but Blue Dot is somewhat on the edge for .357 if loads get heavy - bit fast perhaps. I would not think mag primers necessary. I f a wish to push top loads and add mag primers then...
Really not sure on this - I am not sure of compatibility between newer and much older models, tho I suspect little will have changed.
I think best option might be to try and contact Marlin to get some good tech advice.
I never considered that as an option but best I can tell there is no other barrel which would suit. Of course with suitable machining facilities etc and a good barrel blank - pretty much anything ''could'' be done!!
I think it does pretty OK as it is - just a very inexpensive semi .22.
After some prompting -- I decided to put this up on YouTube altho the pics are the same - just spread them out with some sound track.
As ever, just hope this in part at least helps simplify the process for those new to the deal.

I have two SRH revo's - one is .44 mag and other for .454 Casull. They both sport that 1" Millet and I have found that ideal - very compact and for me anyways, easy to use. I doubt a 30mm would be much advantage.
Only problem I have on the .44 is that the front glass on the sight is...
Welcome to THR.
I have EER scopes on two large handguns (Raging Bull and Contender) and also Millet red dots on couple more (SRHs). Overall I prefer the red dot approach for much faster target aquisition - the EER scopes can make for a lot of nuisance finding the target - altho once found...
The P95 will happily handle +P - but I'd not use ++P in anything much to be honest - pounds gun more than necessary.
My P95 has long since ceased to be carry piece (SIG 226 these days) but I keep it and shoot it. It will do fine on +p but still even so - to give it an easy time and save...
Main thing I find is compressing the spring over guide rod far enough that it goes cleanly into recess in bolt - this is down to controlled pressure while trying to keep good alignment. If careless the spring can bend or kink before guide rod providing the necessary rigidity.
Could be, a...
