Good afternoon,
I am in the market for the above mentioned rifle, (Remington model 8 OR 81), in either .35 Remington or 300 Savage. While the afore mentioned calibers are preferred, I will consider others depending on price/availability of ammo. As I am not a collector, I have no...
Good afternoon all,
A while back I put all my financial eggs in one basket and came into a S&W model 25-9. The -9 minimized the chances of oversized throats and a few other internal issues of older models, and predates the side lock, which is always a plus.
Initially I had to have the revolver...
I kinda did that look on one of my ARs though...would wood furniture from an AR15 work on an AR10?
Thanks all for the welcome and the participation.
Your AR is quite graceful with its wood accents, but my objection has never been the look, so much as the execution of the platform itself. I...
Good afternoon,
As a first posting, I thought I’d share in my “battle rifle” experience.
Often called “assault weapons, battle rifles, black guns,” etc. the AR platform has as many names as it has uses. Being a very traditionally minded fellow, I’ve done my best to acclimate myself to their...
1st Generation Colt 32-20, 1909, worked over and re-barreled by Alan Harton. The original was so badly pitted it was not usable, so instead of restoring the revolver to like-new, he aged the new barrel to match the already aged finish of the pistol.
I am late to the party, but eager to join.
At my age, I missed out on the golden age of revolvers and revolver fighting techniques, (which is not to say I've ever been, nor wish to be in a gunfight,) and it is very gratifying to see posts like this one, (even old ones,) expressing appreciation...
Thank you, gentlemen, for your responses.
I consistently run these heavy Bullets in my Rugers. I am not convinced it’s the thing to do for the N Frames. Either way, something has to be done. I’ve been running a soft load of Unique under a 260gr 429421 in the 29, and the same thing in a 250gr...
A few months back, in an effort to expand my horizons, I began experimenting with heavier bullets in my 4in 29-3. Using a combination of h110 and 300gr hardcast hammers, I ended up splitting the frame of my pistol across the threads; significant enough to where the barrel could be removed by...
Good evening from Pittsburg county. In an effort to become better acquainted with my local firearms community, I am forcing myself to break my anti-technological nature. I appreciate those of you who make such a resource possible.
