Not bought, either given to me by my Dad, or holding for my son: My Dad gave this Olsen copy of the Buck Kalinga to my older son when he started hunting. It was Dad's hunting knife. I'm hanging on to it for my son until his housing situation is stable. My Dad sent me this one last fall...

I think that's at best hyperbole, and certainly not very High Road. I've found that the THR members that are newer ones tend to know less, but that's why they come here, to learn. Especially here in the Reloading subforum, I've found there is a LOT of experience! I thought it might be...

I love my Gx4 TORO and HS 507K combo, but one small fly on the ointment has arisen. Even with the W & E all the way to it's limits, I'm still hitting low and to the left, about 3" low and 2" left at 7 yards. Yes, I tried moving them throughout the 30 MOA adjustable on both, and that was the...

SWMBO and I went to a favorite antique mall today, an old high school converted to an antique mall. I found a piece of Fiestaware she had missed walking through one of the rooms, and she was thankful. I found a knife, (not an antique, but nice for the price) that she bought for me. It's a...

I've always wanted a copy of my service rifle, but since it was a select fire M16A1, no dice. Recently I found out about this place; https://www.atomicengraving.com/product-category/gun-parts/80-percent-lowers/ and now have the start to my semiauto version of my issue M16A1. Note they do...

A fellow gun club member and former co-worker stopped by my work and asked if I'd like some Remington hulls. Well of course I did. So I stopped over at his place Thursday right before going to the club to set up for Trap. (I fill the Pat Traps and load boxes of clays in the house before shooting...

Finally got it! 29 3/16" barrels (I would guess this is 30" nominally) , F& F, weight can't be over 6 lbs. Even with 2 1/2" shells (it's chambered 65 mm) it kicks a bit. Would not want to shoot a lot of Trap with it, or shoot a duck flurry. Greener cross bolt/underlug, it has the old-fashioned...

Caveat emptor.

This may sound like a noob question, but can H4831SC be substituted for H4831? I was given a pound of H4831SC, and would like to use it for .243 Win. loads. I was also given a pound of H380, I know there are loads for that in .243, and a partial bottle of Win 760, and again I know that will...

Went to a Christmas ham shoot at the Mpls. Gun Club, and a friend on another forum brought a Ljutic he'd mentioned was for sale on the forum. He showed it to me, and then asked if I wanted to shoot the ham shoot with it. Yes, please! Didn't win a ham, but I fell in love with the gun. It is a...

I finally got mine! Picked it up during my lunch hour yesterday, dropped it off at home, back to work, then went home and cleaned the preservatives off it and re-lubed. Got off work at 3:30, ran to the club, fired off two quick patterning shots, (one with the Full, one with the Turkey choke I...

I'm watching a local auction on an RL-450, thinking of bidding; I have used a single stage press for 40 years, but them dang AR's eat 5.56 ball at a prodigious rate! I would set it up for my pet load, 28.5 gr. of BL-C(2) topped with 55 gr. FMJ. (I will still do my hunting loads on the single...

Here's a tragic reminder that The Four Rules are steadfast, and transgressions can be costly....... http://www.kare11.com/news/mn-woman-fatally-shot-at-citizens-police-academy/293314306 Whether you learned them as Cooper's version, or TAB-K, the first one is still; Treat every gun as if...

I am about to start loading 7.62x39mm, as I lucked into a good supply of Lapua brass. Wouldn't you know it, right when I think about doing it, I can't find any military primers, (CCI 34's specifically.) I don't want to use regular CCI 200 or 250 Magnums unless I hear others have done so without...

Anybody look at the cover of "The Great Raid"? The soldier to the left kneeling firing a pistol is firing an M9 Beretta!:p The others seem to be wearing Ridgeway caps, which didn't appear until the Korean War. And don't the look scary with the scabbards on their mounted M5...

Left handed M16's, Bell 412's for dust-offs, cute little flags on the IED's, what else is there? I was with a dust-off unit back when the active Army actually still had some UH-1N's. Never saw a Bell 412 my whole time in. :rolleyes:

On the Military Channel right now (2:45 pm CDST) , they are comparing the AR and AK. I am just posting this for interest, not starting the old debate up again.

There is a massive manhunt on the East Side of St. Paul, MN, this morning as officers from several Depts. search for two suspects that shot and killed Sgt. Jerry Vick around 2:20 am, while working undercover on E. 7th St. in St. Paul. :( I graduated from high school with Jerry, and my Dad...

It's spring, and sports fever again runs high in TX. In Canton, a terminally ill father of a football player has shot a coach over his son's participation on the team. Jeffrey Doyle Robertson, also referred to by FoxLive as Jeffrey Doyle Johnson, has been captured after briefly escaping into...

Hi!:) I am having a range day at my place near Hudson, WI, on Aug. 21st. Anyone wishing to attend please PM me for exact directions. I live on a large farm with plenty of room to shoot, I will probably have a 50 yard range and a rifle range, not sure how long, but at least 100 yd. I...
