When my son was young he would get on his hands and knees in our yard and hunt 4 leaf clovers. Usually could come up with a couple in no time.
I could look for an hour and find nothing.

I had bees for a few years till the beatles invaded. The thing I miss most is how they improved my garden yields. Had the hives next to my garden and it really made a difference.

I know nothing about electronics but followed one of the designs I found on you tube and built a slick automatic annealer for around $80. Will do any brass you want to pile in it and fast.

Yup, that is about the same thing I read in Roger Rule's book. Just thought maybe they offered the low comb as a custom feature but it does seem doubtful. No big deal, this gun is nice but not a big...

The Pre 64 actually started out as a low comb and then around 1960 went to Monte Carl stocks. What I was wanting to know is, were any low comb standard rifles offered with a low comb in 1963 ?

I have always wanted a pre 64 model 70 and finally picked one up last weekend. Mine is a very late model ,manufactured in mid 1963 (the year I was born). The rifle is in good shooters condition but I...
The Army taught me how to shoot one in 1982 and that's the only auto pistol I have owned since. I don't have to stop and think when the time comes to draw, it's just.......automatic.

I anneal all of my 45 brass every 5 loadings. Have some that have been loaded at least 30 times and still going strong. I built an automatic annealer using free plans that a guy from Australia...

I think the rifle you are all talking about was the predecessor to the "potato digger" machine gun used in WW1.
It was one of Brownings inventions.
I have been shooting 1911's for almost 40 years now. I have owned almost all of the affordable models and a few of the upper ones.
I will agree with the previous posters that the Ruger is the best...

Not a bolt action but my Henry single shot is a tack driver and a pretty good looking rifle for the money.

I plan to use this rifle mainly for hunting deer, hogs and elk. Probably never take a shot over 300 yards.
I know that the cheapest route would be the model 700 and I'm not ruling it out but I...

I like the Remington 700 but want an old school look so no detachable mag. I'm even on the fence if I even want a floor plate.

I've owned about every trigger and kit made for the 10-22. It all depends on what you want. If this gun is a tin can shooter, do it yourself and you will be happy. If it is a short range squirrel...

One instance was early fall with lots of green still around. The other was just a couple of weeks ago with no green but plenty of grain in the fields for deer to eat.

Sounds like I may have to pick up one of those lace on leather risers for my buttstock.

Wood to metal is very good but I wish that they had slimmed it down a bit. Not exactly graceful.
