I will get more info this coming week and maybe some pics
Thanks

I was just reading an old thread that said they were used for target marking. supposedly it was ink and different colors for different shooters on the same target and it was ink
At this point, I have tried Zip Strip and It worked just fine.

Hi all,
Does anyone have a method to remove urethane without disturbing the original finish?
Any info will be helpful and appreciated.

I did it!!
I will get some pix,out soon, and it's a Model 24 short rifle not a carbine.
As the heading said, "I went to a local gun show today" and Saw a Mauser that I don't have as yet!
The Mauser I looked at was a Colombian Mauser carbine, with matching numbers in 7 MM.
Nice looking...
I am sure down the list as an expert, but it looks to me like a Mod.99 "last ditch". It has the plum shaped bolt handle and I think Tokyo arsenal.
When the experts show up , they will tell you the...

Good Evening Gents,
I found an interesting idea at the local Cabella's.
As anyone who has frequented that establishment knows how the gun racks are, mostly in the vertical arrangement. When I...
I got it Jim. Mine has been reamed out to accommodate a 3" shell.

Thanks for the info.

Hello again & again,
Would someone (Jim/Peter) give me an answer about the RFI 410?
I've looked through some old threads about the RFI .410 but here is my question...
I have said rifle and it...
Hello Paul,
As I am not familiar with British law, are the brass cartridges hard to come by in your area?
I was able to purchase a wooden case of 180 rounds here just lately but I am a little bit...
Good Morning All,
I have an R.F.I. .410 rifle/shotgun that has two wooden plugs in the stock between the receiver and the rear bridge and I saw another one today, online, that has two holes in the...
thanks to you for the information.

In my research I thought I had read...
