Yeah. I have both but like my Security 6 better. It's a 1976 Bicentennial. I think someone before me did a trigger job on it. I only have one firearm with a better trigger and that's my Colt King...

Since you posted this 6 months ago you may have already sorted out your powder measure. I know it's sacrilegious, but I have a Pro-7, a Pro-Jector, and 2 LnL's. I actually still have this measure on...

I use those Coffee Mate containers. I've used them in all kinds of weather with no problems. They're #2's.

I picked up an old Lyman ST turret press along with some other stuff in a box. I got this stuff at a flea market last summer. Anyhow, buried in the bottom of the box was an old Lyman 2 chamber mold....

Thanks Larry.
Unfortunately, my dad wasn't really that interested in firearms. He had a Winchester model 42, that he won in a raffle, during WWII. It was immaculate. My older brother hunted...

DO NOT RUN YOUR BRASS, AND FORGET IT OVERNIGHT!!! You will have camouflaged brass. Mine turned a nasty green. I ran my tumbler, way late into the evening, watched some TV, and went to bed. In the...

I was thinking about a media separator, after my daughter bought me a wet tumbler. I had to run a batch of brass through the new tumbler. Hmmm, no media separator. But, a $1.00 mesh trashcan, from...

Hi,
Hmm.. I have 4 mounted, on the bench. 3 Hornady progressives, and a Lyman turret. Then there are the dust collectors. A Multiplex, a Lee handloader (my intro to reloading), an RCBS, another...

Uh oh! I'm gonna go against the flow, and swear allegiance to Hornady. Let me explain.
A friend of mine, died years ago, and his wife gifted me, with his Hornady Projector. It sat there for a...
Since red ladybugs, have been replaced with those biting, orange *itchbugs, around here, that .17 chambering could be named for the orange ones. The .17 *itchbug.

I was talking to a buddy, the other day. He told me, and I haven't corroborated this story, that that Occasio-Cortez nightmare, may actually have one good idea. She has threatened to vote FOR, the...

Thanks guys for the ideas, and comments. Hey Enfield! What did you bait that 20 gauge shell with?
I just got done with another .40 cal flag, for my other grandson. He's due to graduate from the...

Those sound like great ideas! It's too bad, that the modern shot shell bases are usually brass plated steel. I had a few of these that were too rusty to use.If you happen across a treasure trove of...

I saw a guy, on YouTube, that was shooting through some tires, that he had standing up, and banded, like your diagram. It suppressed quite a bit of the noise, especially with pistols. It got...

I have one odd ball stapler. I think it's an old Sears one. All my other staplers, are one size, but that one takes 13 mm staples. Of course, it's the one that I can find the quickest. Maybe I should...

Roger that RP. Got a few of those stuck up around here, too.

Ok, took me a second read, but I figured out the W.Va Zippos. The 16 goes into the 12. Roger! Put a small rubber band around the 16, and it'd be pretty water resistant too.

Thanks guys! I've made the Christmas lights, some years back, but only made the one string. Red hulls are easy to come by, but I have had a harder time getting Remington greens. I had a couple of...

Nice job!
I just replaced an axe haft on a mid 19th century fire axe. I cheated, and located an old fawn's foot haft. But, still had to do the whittling, to get it to fit that old cast head,...

I started off, by making several, .40 cal. boolit flags. I made one for my grandson, when he graduated from the police academy, and one for Whitehall Ohio, Division of Police. I retired from the...
I wanted to thank everyone for the feedback. I bumped into an 870 slug barrel, while out getting my prescriptions. Yeah, I snuck off to the "candy store". Found one, still in the wrapper, for $100.
Watch out for sights on an A5. I had a "gunsmith", solder on a rifle sight, on an A5 barrel. I had the original flamethrower ( polychoke) removed, the barrel cut, and crowned to 18.5, and those...
