Today my new R95 came. What a nice looking gun. I just took it out of the box but haven't cleaned the shipping oil off yet. Its just as smooth in operation as others have said. I like the wood and the "checkering" which is more like "stipling". I really would have been fine with smooth wood. I...

I haven't seen this posted before so I hope I'm not stepping on anyones toes. I saw this on another forum and thought I would post it here. Yes, made in Turkey and has an aluminum receiver. Its based on the Winchester model 92 action. It has my attention. And with the Rise Of The Lever Action...

I have pretty much decided I can do all I need to do with handguns using Unique and 2400 powder. I would like to find an all around rifle powder and just buy a decent amount of it. My thoughts are that IMR or Hogdon 4350 is a darn good all around powder but probably not for 223 and 30-30 loads...

I went yesterday to shoot my new to me steel frame 1851 Pietta Navy revolver. I bought this gun from my bud a few months ago. I had to order balls for it and went ahead and got a .375 RB bullet mold at the same time. I started of with a 20gr load of 3F and and the second cylinder had a 25gr...

I finally got my HB model 10 back from S&W. I sent it to them at the first of the year and 6 short months later it came back repaired. I got the gun from my mother who worked for the Tarrant County Sheriffs office for 18 years. When I got it I noticed the barrel to cylinder gap looked really...

I posted a while back I won a Kel-Tec 380 off gunbroker by accident. I typed in the 32s and the 380 was listed in the 32acp section and I bid on it before I realized it was the wrong gun. I won the bid and was obligated to follow through with the deal. The 380 came and it is nice but the price...

I just picked up this Kel-Tec 380 i won by accident off GB a few days ago. By accident I had typed in Kel Tec p32 and was looking at the 32s listed and saw this gun and didn't notice it was a 380 instead of a 32. I won the auction by one dollar over the other bidder. But its mine now and I have...

I posted a while back I bought a Pietta 1851 from my bud. I finally got a couple of boxes of balls and a .375 Lee bullet mold and now I would like to find a simple holster for it. What do you guys recommend? It doesn't have to be fancy. Just a simple leather pouch that looks appropriate for the gun.

I have a remington 3200 and the latch just locked up on me. It slid way forward while installing the forearm and now I can't get it to go back in so I can release the forearm. Anyone have any ideas or had this happen top them?

My bud has me selling some of his guns as I have posted. And most of them I know an approximate value on. He gave me his Crockett 32 pistol to sell but doing a GB search and Google search I cannot find a ballpark price on this gun. It is brand new and unfired but has no box or paperwork. So...

My bud is selling most of his guns and I am listing them on GB for him. He had a couple of BP revolvers I thought I might want. One was a 36 Navy by Pietta. I bought that one. The second is a brass frame ASM 1860 Colt. I decided I didn't want it because I mistakenly thought it was Uberti and...

My bud is getting out of guns. At 76 he has decided he is thinning the herd. I am listing some of his guns on GB for him but one I wanted for myself was an I-Frame S&W in 32 long. It has a 3" barrel and looks almost brand new. If you look you will see there is almost no wear of the bluing on the...

I am helping my bud sell his guns. At 74 he has decided its time to close out the shooting. He was going to sell all his guns to the pawn shop but I convinced him to let me take over the selling end for him because I can get him more money for them. So in payment for helping he gave me his...

Anyone heard from the poster named Arcticap lately. I liked his post and if someone was looking for something he generally knew where to find it. It shows he hasn't been on the forum since last November.

Just thought you guys might like to know Graf And Sons has their brand of BP in stock. Not made by Goex this time but by someone named Wano. "Manufactured for Graf & Sons by Wano Schwarzpulver GmbH, Imported by Schuetzen Powder LLC"...

I was given a model 10 heavy barrel gun and was looking at it and noticed the barrel/cylinder looked large. So I measured it with a feeler gauge and the largest gauge I could insert was a .015. Way too big. Is there any way to reduce the gap without having the barrel set back?

I watched a video yesterday about the development of the AR rifle and the trials and so forth and one of the early problems was a switch to ball powders from stick powders. So i was wondering what you all are using for loads and powders with 55gr bullets in your AR rifles? Are stick powders...

I got an email today from Atlantic Firearms advertising DPMS AKs and AR rifles. I thought that DPMS had gone out of business about year ago. I remembered this because the only AR I have ever owned is a DPMS Panther Lite. So are they up and running again or did they just never go out of...

I started the other thread of mine asking about the LCP and LCP II and I completely forgot about the Taurus Spectrum. Does anyone have any experience with them? I have read both good and bad about them on the net but would like to hear what actual owners of them have to say. Two things in their...

Is the difference between the original LCP and the LCP II just that the trigger on the LCP II is lighter and preset after being racked and the trigger on the LCP original model takes a long draw to fire the gun? I had a Taurus 738TCP and thats how the trigger was on that gun. A long trigger...
