steve,

OK, I am a slow learner, but I still do NOT KNOW where you reside. PLEASE Resubmit. IF you are not in the witness protection program, PLEASE tell ME where you LIVE? I live in Mansfield, PA...

steve,

So, where do you reside? If you answered this question when I last asked, I missed it. Sorry. Where on Planet Earth are you living? I won't ask again.
Be well.

rockrat,

I am pleased to own a .22M/20 and a scoped .222/20 that are the BEST Farm Guns a fellow can hope for. I like the Savage M24 much and am always looking for a .30/30/12 or 30/30/20....

John,

I use #7.5 shot and a heavier charge of Unique and two gas checks, one, cup up, over powder and one, cup down, over shot and a light roll crimp.

ALWAYS wear eye protection when shooting...

Der Gerbirgsjager,

Du hast rechts! (You got it right). In Mifflin County, PA in the late 1950s, around our Jack's Mountain cabin in the summer, I always wore leather motorcycle leggings picking...

Whole Bunches "nailed it" as far as my experience is with the lovely Garand. I am only 6 years your junior, but shot my Garands in DCM matches since 1965. I acquired several Garands and...

steve,

Great post. Where do you reside? I live in very rural northcentral, Pennsylvania. We have copperheads and rattlers hereabouts. In "Theory" rattlers are protected by the Fish & Boat...

Ithaca Gunner,

Thanks for the nice trip down memory lane. I came home to my farm bought in 1988 in 1996. All my extended family still resides far away in Chester County. I found Tioga County in...

Ithaca Gunner,

Do you still reside in Tioga County? Since every state is now a Border State, I keep a pump 12 gauge, loaded right for the Biden/Kamala Illegals criminalizing this nation....

Tracy,

Thanks you for your kindness. I do not know where you live or what your circumstances are, so please open a thread and I will reply with kindness. May the Lord be with you.

Be well.

elm,

It is a Free Country and people can VENT. I have a thick skin and it is akin to "water off a duck's back." LOL.

One more thing as Columbo would say, I opened this thread, so my opinion is...

Roger,

You made me laugh. I am not "hard nosed", but was paid to enforce the law. On day 2 as a town cop, I saw a car run through a stop sign. I pulled the car over and found out it was a member...

Budzilla 19,

SO, What is the Question? Why do YOU want a .45 caliber ML? Are you contemplating hunting deer, bear, elk, or what? Once you define the question, we will be better able to provide an...

waksupi,

Many Thanks for your trip down memory lane; in 1958, at age 13, I got my first PA hunting license. I happily live on a rural Tioga County 60-acre farm with a dozen resident deer, a dozen...

dak109,

Congratulations on getting a .444. I got mine in 1980. I use the same cast Lyman #429421 Plain Base 250 grain boolit sized .431 ahead of Red Dot, 700X, or Unique as I use in my .44M...

nueces5,

I feel for you as a fellow gun owner and reloader. It seems you have a very anti-gun government restricting honest gun owners. The same happens here in several states. If you have a few...

Ithaca Gunner,

Sir, many thanks for the interesting history lesson.

As a teenager, I met an old mountain resident with many guns. Our family cabin was nearby and he was friendly and a gun collector. Jack's Mountain had many copperhead snakes and the neighbor lent me,...

For over 60 years, my dozen rock locks have served me well. Now and then a flint breaks and I assume it is a fault in the rock. I do polish my frizzen faces with crocus cloth often to reduce any...

Mark,

I wondered that myself for a few years until I found a new RCBS chronograph for about $100.00 in one of the gun catalogs. A week later, I found a nearly new tripod at a yard sale for $2.00....

Excellent Thread! It causes reflective thinking for all us old guys. I am 79 and both my kids do not want my farm/gun ranges or my guns and reloading stuff. We old folks thought all people thought...

rfesk,

Welcome to the Forum; I see this is only your third post. My .22Magnum/20 gauge rides all the time in my Ranger when I patrol the farm with my loyal hound. I have a stock ammo holder with a...

K43,

You nailed it! I agree with the oil soak and use of a sight pusher for the front sight. Moving the front sight to the Right is the easier way to go.

The Doctor's name looks to be professionally done, so why worry? If it was a gift from a wife, co-workers, etc., that is part of the gun's history. I have a Sweet16 that was a wedding gift from my...

Mr. Wolf,

I totally agree; all officers have wide discretion when handling a case. We do not know if the alleged violators were cooperative or confrontational. Cooperative folks get Warnings in...
