In relation to scam artists on line. When an item is posted on a gun forum for considerable less than going price that should be warning #1. Warning #2 is if it is from a newer member with no sales...

The Dog never catches its tail. It dies from exhaustion.

So far month of July has been a little slow. Got a S&W 28-2 & 629-6 on the 2nd. On the 3rd got a Brn HP, S&W 27-2 and a Classic Edd McGivern 15. I did trade off a Colt 1911 series 70 & Springfield...

I was a Ruger cheerleader for years. I bought a 10/22 original model with Walnut stock and barrel band when they first came out. As the different styles came out I bought them too. I think I had...

Couple months back I found a sack with box of 100 #1 Mustad Sproat hooks and 4 boxes of Rem 22 shorts. Store I bought them at went under close to 20 years ago.

It’s hard to beat a S&W 25. You can get into a good shooter at $800. It is not the best gun if you want to feed it a steady diet of magnum loads. Off hand it’s most accurate 45 still common and...

I spent time in places you didn’t light a cigarette at night. I do have a 10/22 with a lite mount. Excellent for shooting out coons and Bull Frogs and whatever other critters aggravate you at night.

Me and Bro were trying to cut down copper solids .375 cal for use in 375 Win. We have found no satisfactory way to do it. Not even on lathe. The bullet wants to smear instead of cutting cleanly.
I’m...

I could kick myself for not buying a German jewelers lathe at auction. It was so small it was in wooden case with carrying handle. Had lots of stuff in drawers. It ended up going for $80. I knew...

I just decided I needed a 1911 a few months back. Been a long time since I kept one. I can’t tell you how many new S&W revolvers I’ve bought in my life. I bought 2 new 1911s in early 70s. I’ve owned...

This must be the week for drama on CB. About 3 months back I sold fellow forum member Camba some boolits. Promptly shipped and sent him track number. Some time later he contacted me that he hadn’t...

Check your state laws. I know some states require shipping go through FFLs. In general Guns made before 1899 are exempt from registration. Don’t take online experts advice, look it up.

I bought a fancy H&A rifle at estate sale. Very good condition but missing forearm. Octagon barrel and 25/20 SS. I forget full name but in Fladermans it was Ladies Perch Belly—-Target ? I was going...

I’m looking to buy a mold for 45acp that is good dependable feeder in 1911s. Want something around 230gr. All the molds I have are for Target style boolits. I have avoided loading 45acp much as...

I have a rifle with full buckhorn sighted in as a peep, as in #1. Front is Patridge Blade and is deadly in the thick stuff on jumped deer. Rifle is 141 Rem 35cal.

I have a pair of cable cutters that make short work of any lead pipe that fits, 1.5” diameter. Bigger gets the Sawz All.

Anyone know what this stamp in butt of M1 carbine is? Crossed Cannons in Ring? Is this a US marking or importer mark.

Yes, you are out of luck on warranty repair. Bubba dun thrashed that shooter. Have fun getting that bushing out. Waste of time sending to S&W. If you BS them on phone and get to send it in, they will...

We have went through the best years of shooting sports about last 50yrs. There was a time when many cartridges were not availed unless you could find original stash. I was expensive proposition to...

My first serious center fire handgun was a 44mg SBH. At the time we shot mostly 50 to 100yds. It seemed a waste to shoot at short range. Mostly varmit hunted since Ohio had no handgun season for deer...

I bought the neatest little 93 carbine you ever saw. 32/40. Bought dies and brass and couldn’t wait to shoot it. My loads wouldnt chamber. Back home to check out the mistake. Turned out the gun had...

I store my sizing dies in 35mm film containers. I have a plastic box than industrial bits came in that is perfect to store them in. I cut a piece of walnut that is drilled to accept top punches that...

I still have a few thousand Peters Krumble Ball shorts. Composition bullets that disintegrate on contact. My uncle use to have a shooting gallery at Canton, Ohio and bought it by the case. It’s good...

How about a Spanish Destroyer carbine, 9mm Largo. I played with one a good bit. Used 38Super brass with rim thinned. I saw one that was barreled to 7.63 Mauser in single shot mode. Had nice stock...

I think Win 32 was never factory loaded with BP. It was made for people who wanted to reload with BP because smokeless was new and some didn’t like it. I guess they did it so 30/30s wouldn’t be...
