There was a listmember over on one of the 18th century lists that bought $250 worth of ranger gear off of a seller. The seller kept the money, never sent the goods and blocked the buyer from all...

He could always put much of the reloading stuff and moulds on EBAY then set a starting price of what he would like to get. If he gets a little more than what he set his starting price at, he would be...

I want to start loading for .45 long colt for my .410/.45 contender barrel. It is impossible to find .410 slugs and the old Lee HP .45 colt mold I have will make a better bullet anyway. I notice the...

Thanks for the info on the Tasco scope. The price is definitely one I can afford. Next time my retirement pension payment comes through, I'll get that Tasco scope.
Thanks !!

Over the summer I had my Dad's old Feinwerkbau 124 fixed so it would shoot again. It has no iron sights so I need to find a good springer pellet rifle scope. I have been looking at the Mantis 3x9x40...

Burlington flint/chert is awesome for firesteels for making fire !!! Sparks like the 4th of July.

A fellow on another muzzleloader list I am on made a white noviculite gun flint and said the sparks were incredible in his flintlock. I wanted to see if I could get the same result. Yes ... that...

I want to try to knap some Noviculite stone for gunflints. I understand where this is found is in Arkansas. Do any of you Arkansas folks have any access to some clean noviculite nodules or big flakes...

The wife saw a place she is interested in in Fairfield Texas. Does anyone have any opinions of what is it like in Fairfield Texas and would it be a good city to move to ?? Are there any places in or...

Here is a message from a pawn ship I have a link to that sells firearms. At the top of his page today is this paragraph. What is a gun brace ??

Our newscaster here in Ohio just said that Tuesday into Wednesday you folks in Arkansas could get 10 inches of snow !! That much snow in Arkansas ?? how strange. You folks are supposed to be warm...

That is what I have also JoeJames.... rolls of lead free solder. That is my source of tin. All my rolls of lead free solder aren't created the same. The Sterling brand is Tin and copper. One roll of...

Modern pewter is about 91 percent tin, 7.5 percent antimony, and 1.5 percent copper. I want to avoid adding the antimony as I want the boolit to remain fairly soft for expansion.

I discovered information about tin. Pure tin has a hardness of about 5, like pure lead, and that is what Rotometals sells. Lead free solder is 97% tin and 3% copper and has a hardness of 15. When...

Nice score !! The lead covering the paper covered copperwires is super soft and great !!I used a hammer and sharp chisel and cut the lead down the whole length. Then I was able to easily open the...

Lee handles are not historically correct for what I'm trying to do. What I'm looking to do is use these original handles for demo's for the public. If the mould will fit and work, then I can use...

I have these old hand forged tongs for a boolit mould. A modern mould would not look right in these. I want to try one of the brass single round ball Jeff tanner moulds in this set of mould handles....

Interesting information about cylinder oil. So where does one lube the 124 to keep it top notch ?? This is my first experience with the airgun.

I inherited many years ago a Feinwerkbau 124 sport from my Dad. The seals were shot and he somehow cracked the stock at the wrist. A liberal slathering of superglue seemed to fix the cracked stock...

Nothing came through AKtinman. There is an underscore (the low dash) between the two and the knives. It looks like the underline on the above covered up the underscore.

I hope all goes perfectly with your better half's recovery. Maybe she can help you at the reloading bench with the good arm ?? I guess you'll need to take over for a while making cookies. Prayers...

Prices seem to be coming down lately. My house is out there. My inlaws live in Haslet which is west Ft. Worth. Looking for the $150 price range ...cheaper would be better of course. If any list...

So I have a bunch of .44 mag boolits I cast in 50/50 alloy, pure lead/WW's with a little tin added. I no longer have my .44 mag carbine. I was thinking of making a bit softer 180 grain boolits for my...

$500 a year in property taxes is near what I pay now. I live in a rural poor appalachian county so taxes are cheaper. In the big Ohio Cities, $2500 to more than $5000 a year is common. I'd live on a...
