Stumbled across this bad boy this evening. I've used their lower for my 6.8 SPC II build. At $499.99, they're able to give Mega a run for their money. Don't know if they offer mid-length, this one's carbine length gas. Nice stuff. :D...

So, yesterday I'm visiting a buddy of mine. He recently lost his mother, and in the process of sorting through things... finds an old relic. We took some digital pix of it, but I'm waiting on him to email 'em to me. From what I was able to determine after giving a once over eyeballing, I'm...

Don't see this one talked 'bout much. Got a good deal on this one "back in the day". I think I snagged it up for $150.00 "used", but I doubt it's had even a box of shells through it. One of these days... I need to take it out and see if it even shoots. :neener: When I bought it, the bead was...

MkIV Series 70 Govt. model (been tinkered with a bit) :evil: I've named her "Mistress".

I stopped in to visit my buddy Andy... he's the Tandy Leather store owner in my area. Last year I fixed his 1860 Army with a new hand... and did some cleaning of it for him. Since no good deed goes unpunished, he made a couple of custom leather knife sheaths for me... inlaid with varied colors...

Which model was it that Marlin offered in .22 Short/Long/Long Rifle that was both bolt action via clip fed? I see that currently, they offer the youth models with "single shot" only which will handle all three chamberings. The clip fed offered today are listed as "Long Rifle Only". I'm...

Saturday morning (8th), a close friend of mine and I helped out to introduce a group of 13 guys to the fun of muzzle loaders. :cool: Three of them had fired front stuffers before... the other ten were familar with modern firearms only. We gathered at their church and had a nice time sharing...

Since the sun is out, and the temps are a little warmer than they have been... figured it was time to get pix of these little beauties uploaded. :evil: I bought this matched set from DasJaeger last fall, at the same time I picked up a 3rd Dragoon from him. The grips are his handiwork and...

This may seem like an odd question... but, are fore stock retaining nuts (between manufacturers) made with a common/standarized thread? My reason for asking is this... I have a Winchester 1200 Police pump. When I purchased my Knoxx SpecOps stock for it, the website simply implies "Winchester...

Anyone heard from Clembert lately? He's been awfully quiet.

My buddy, Andy (whose 1860 I fixed) decided he's got no use for a couple of hand tools he's had forever. They're "Dem-Bart" gunsmithing checkering tools. A "single" row starter, a "triple" row starter, one that rides in the furrow made by either of the first two to cut subsequent parallel...

How'd the extraction go today? I know you've been through hades over the passed two weeks while battling that tooth. Is life more gooder already? :confused: Sent ya an email of this afternoon's adventure... MOST Zestful ! Really happy with the conversion !! :cool:

Not only did Jason Rhodes (Customer Service Mgr.) step up and take care of me with the whole 1858 Bison episode... but, he also sent me a replacement spring for my buddy's 1860 Pietta (free of charge) !! It arrived in today's mail. :cool: Next time I see my buddy Andy, I'll get the new spring...

Decided to have my tires rotated today... and have the brakes inspected. The fronts I did (four years ago) are at about half-life and doin' fine (I guess my work was ok on 'em). The rears have gone really bad ! :banghead: No wear indicators to sing at me that they'd gotten low... :fire: and...

Greetings. I'm a bit new to reloading... so, lookin' to pick yer brains. Background: Using a Lee 4-turret loading press, already have the Forster case trimmer. Using an RCBS (inside) case reaming tool. Have a case lube pad, have/use a Lee powder scale. Have and use the factory crimp die...

Yesterday I spent some range time with one of my .30-06 Remingtons. This particular one is one that I'd bought for my dad for when he lived in the arctic. Before he died, I ended up getting it back to add to my collection. It wasn't grouping the best, but was in the general area. Upon...

I have a couple of 700 ADL rifles which I'd like to convert over to the BDL's feature of being able to dump the shells out the bottom. What do I need to do to facilitate this (besides a BDL stock)? One of them is a Long Action .30-06 and the other one is a short action .22-250. I'm confident...

Haven't posted about this one, 'cause it's basically a modern firearm as I understand. I've got a replica of this gun, made by Rossi (Interarms of VA, made in Brazil). You'd have to live in WA State to get the joke, but I call it the "Governator". :evil: It's chambered for 3" loads, and...

After getting a chance to fondle that antique Colt yesterday, I toddled on over to the rifle range and put my first rounds through this puppy. The load was 75 grs of Hodgdon 777 ffg, a Speer .530 round ball, a T/C lubed pillow ticking patch, and CCI #11 caps. My first...

Who wants to see a little more? :evil:
