    Marlin model 60

    I recently got back an old model 60 that I'd lent to my father probably 30 years ago. The action is gummed up, and firing pin strikes are too light to fire it. Not an ammo problem, as the ammo with firing pin marks work in my buckmark. What's a good way to degum it? If this is the wrong place...

    Pawn Shop Gods Smile on Me Again

    I have one those that I bought new back in the mid 1980's. My favorite revolver of all time. Extremely accurate and fun to shoot.

    Colt New Service .455 Webley WWI Revolver

    A couple of things about the Fiocchi .455 ammo. It's very slow, a bit over 600 fps. It uses small pistol primers, and the brass I have is prone to case splitting. It is accurate however. Hornady ran a bunch about 10 years ago and it's great stuff. And last I heard you could get cut and rim...

    Colt New Service .455 Webley WWI Revolver

    My barrel is marked .455 Eley, you can buy cases trimmed to proper length with thinned rims from Buffalo Arms. Lee has .455 Webley dies which work well for me. Loaded right its a pretty nice cartridge. Not a boomer, but no weakling either.

    Colt New Service .455 Webley WWI Revolver

    I have one of those. Mine was made in 1914. I'm not sure if anyone still produces .455 webley, I have a few boxes of Fiocchi, 3 of original .455 Colt from Dominion and a bunch of reloads. Very accurate and packs a fair wallop. I've shot a couple of small pigs with it.

    A new .45 acp

    I'm considering getting a new 1911 in .45 acp. Been checking reviews on a Standard Manufacturing and Colt Gold Cup. I used to have a Gold Cup and realize the differences between the two. Same price range, but no adjustable sights on the Standard. Is it possible that the Standard is nice enough...

    How about a .32 caliber club?

    Why don't we just start a .32 club? Seems like there's one for plenty of other clubs, .32 ' s are under represented.

    Ruger American?

    Appreciate the replies. Any thoughts on the stock? I've read that it's sort of slick, and is tough to use when scoped.

    Ruger American?

    I've recently been invited to hunt local piggies. My friend says that most shots will be at about 100 yds, so I may need to acquire a rifle to put a scope on. My 60 year old eyes need the help these days. So I'm wondering if anyone has experience with a Ruger American. Looking at a 7mm/08. I...

    Ruger Blackhawk jammed

    My experience has been in the .45 acp cylinder. Haven't tried shot in the Colt cylinder.

    Ruger Blackhawk jammed

    It seems that firing snake shot in my Blackhawk causes the primer to back out some. Thus binding the cylinder up. It's the only trouble I've ever had with mine in 30 years of owning it. I'm no expert or gunsmith, but I've read that it's a common problem.

    Ruger Blackhawk jammed

    Blackhawks will jam up pretty tight if you shoot rat/snake shot cartridges in them. It's the only trouble I've ever had with mine.
