    I finally found my Springfield trapdoor

    You got a fine looking rifle. I would love to have a full length rifle. I do have a H&R 1873 reproduction trapdoor carbine that is a pleasure to shoot.

    Which Polymer 45 ACP are you enjoying for target shooting

    Naturally it is a bit shorter due to the narrower and smaller grip of the 9mm but it is only by a little bit. I’m running the flat grip inserts on both guns.. The FNX9 does feel better in my hand. I do carry the FNX9 a lot, the FNP45 is just a range toy.

    Mag Drops Accidentally

    Had a friend who owned a CW45 that kept dropping the mag. He was hitting the mag release during recoil. He swore he was not but I ran 6 mags in a row without an issue. I would definitely check your grip. He ended up selling me the gun real cheap.

    Which Polymer 45 ACP are you enjoying for target shooting

    That’s exactly how I felt about my HK USP when I bought the FNP45. Super accurate and more aesthetically please to me than the USP. I bought an extended threaded barrel for it and running an Osprey suppressor. I can draw you a smiley face on the target at 15 yards without thinking too hard about...

    1903 A3 Remington

    Here’s mine 1943, I can say it is a tack driver. I’m running 150 grain Winchester power point bullets pushed by 50.0 grains of H4895. She will almost put 3 rounds in the same hole at 100 yards when I’m doing my part.

    Mini Lathe for the home armory

    Totally agree, but with age you realize you still have so much to learn unlike when I was 20 and thought I knew everything.

    Mini Lathe for the home armory

    The jet 16 almost killed me and my buddy, but then again we are old goats.

    Mini Lathe for the home armory

    Good info, I’ve seen some good used machines at reasonable prices, it’s gett them from there to my shop that is the catch. It almost killed two of us moving the Jet mill. I would have to look around and see what prices are to ship something like that.

    Mini Lathe for the home armory

    I just picked up an 1982 model Jet 16 Mill/Drill and am currently learning how to use it. I’m planning to get a Grizzly 12”x36” lathe for Christmas. I’ve dabbled into gunsmith work for years and now that I’m close to retirement I want to get my shop outfitted for custom gun work. Possibly next...

    Kel-Tec CP33 best rimfire pistol to come out in a long time!

    I have fairly large hands, for small to medium I would say the grip will deep a little long. Probably similar to an FN 57 pistol.

    Kel-Tec CP33 best rimfire pistol to come out in a long time!

    Correct, it feels a little narrow in my hand for how long the grip is front to back if that clears it up.

    Kel-Tec CP33 best rimfire pistol to come out in a long time!

    I got it for $425+ tax= $460 out the door. Very reasonable.

    Kel-Tec CP33 best rimfire pistol to come out in a long time!

    You’ Be happy. Cool gun, my only dislikes are: The grip should be filled out more to math the length. Not quite as quiet compared to my Walther p22 when suppressed. Other than that I love it.

    Kel-Tec CP33 best rimfire pistol to come out in a long time!

    Picked up a Kel-Tec CP33 recently. So far a couple hundred rounds through it and all I can say is wow. All the reviews are correct, this is an awesome pistol. Super accurate and 33 round capacity, what more could you ask for? To give you an idea of how she will shoot this is one mag, 33 rounds...

    Kel-Tec CP33

    The scope on mine is an old Weaver 1.5-5x20mm with seethru mounts. I had this setup on a desert eagle years ago. I sold the gun and the scope has set for years without a home. I used to put some nice groups with it at 100 yards. I’m sure it wi do well on the CP33 and I can still use the fiber...

    Kel-Tec CP33

    LOL don’t know about scaled down. This gun is huge, here is a pic showing it with a Kimber Ultra Carry II in .45 acp. I do however agree with the blaster part!

    Kel-Tec CP33

    Congrats on you CP33. I picked mine up on Saturday. So far an awesome shooting pistol I have only done some functions testing but will get out next weekend to see what accuracy I can wring out of it. What I have shot functioned flawlessly. Lots of good stuff about this gun, my dislikes: Louder...

    Handgun cartridge carbines: Whaddya got and why?

    I built this AR in .45acp recently with an Echo trigger and running an Osprey suppressor . This is a really fun gun to shoot but other than maybe home defense it’s pretty useless.

    Sporterized M1903A3 value

    Thank you, the stock has a hand rubbed tung oil finish. The scope is an old Weaver K3 made in El Paso Texas. With my hand loads she will put rounds in the same hole at 100 yards.

    Pre 64 Winchesters

    Inherited this one, S/N makes it 1896 but barrel and sights are not correct for that time. Probably rebuild somewhere down the road. The old girl does shoot well so I’m not complaining.
