I don't know but am I missing something here? Why can't you insert a small diameter brass rod into the threaded hole the expander screws into and tap the whole cartridge out? 11 reply's and I come up...

Not sure but some have different size holes for takedown pins, make sure they are the correct size. No idea if they would be larger or smaller.

While I have many Craftsmen tools and a few Sears guns my favorite Sears memory is of taking a shortcut thru the store to the movie theater down the street. Every time we walked in the back door and...

Not only are they over charging but they don't even abide by their own statements. "Cannot ship to NY, AK, HI, MA, CT, Washington D.C.
Please know the laws of your state before ordering." They can...

It takes no longer to set them up to spray than it does to bake them, I did get tired of bumping the tray and knocking some boolits over so I fixed that by removing the bottom of my toaster oven and...

I picked up boxes of Win 333's for about $18.00 each, just have to check often and be sharp.

Don't feel bad Jonp, I had a batch turn out looking like chocolate chips! I not only messed up the temp but also left them a bit to long and they slumped down. OH well back in the pot they went.

Just looked, not nearly as much out there as I thought maybe 20 lbs or so. It's yours if you want it just pm me where to send it. No idea when I'd get around to sorting more out, it could be years....

I haven't read all the posts so I don't know if this has been suggested, but has anyone suggested using mercury? just stand the bbl up in a pan in a corner and pour a small amount of mercury down the...

I second the tap handle and I NEVER use a wrench! To easy to start crooked and then break a small tap.
You should be able to buy a couple of used handles for a few bucks each, ratcheting handles are...

I may be wrong but I thought I saw on some Lee paperwork that they will custom size die's and sizers for a very reasonable fee, it's worth a call.
I bought a powder measure from him and he shipped it right out and provided a tracking number.
Unfortunately the local postal service decided they would hang onto it and many other packages because...

I wish I lived closer, I could learn so much just quietly standing in the corner watching!
I also have three of them and would buy more but they are a bit pricy, but absolutely NO complainants about them or how they work.
I'm pretty sure it will exceed the 50 oz. limit making it unavailable in NY. Cuomo is an idiot!
I can't help you but I do admire how you filled in that string of flyers to the left with screw heads! That's some good thinking!

When I couldn't find my tall pusher I used one of the shorter one and added to it with JB Weld, crude but it worked and I didn't have to wait.

I sent them an Email just before the WTB, from what I've heard (online of so it must be true) is that Mossberg is no longer repairing them and are replacing them with a pump action. IDK. I'd just as...

Just like the title, I'm looking for the plastic Mossberg 9200 bolt buffer. I've already did a search online and checked Numrich and a lot of others, anyone have one kicking around? I know it's a...

No idea about "ageing" the metal but instead of sanding it try Easy Off oven cleaner, it worked great for me on some AR parts.
