Bob, if you talk to him, tell him we are thinking of him and wish him speedy healing. I noticed in recent photographs that he had lost a lot of weight. Didn't think that it might be due to illness.

I have a last ditch Arisaka in very nice condition. Wood butt plate and complete, untouched Mum. No import marks. An interesting feature is that the trigger guard/ mag floor assembly seems to have...

No doubt there are better descriptions, but this one is...

Only got around to watching the DVD last night. I haven't watched all of the extras though. Got my book maybe a month ago. GCA is a great organization. There is a small core of guys who do all of the...

$15 was half a weeks wages for many people in the 20's. My very generous grandmother and aunt bought me my first .22, a new Remington 514 in 1950 for $12. It was a BIG present. What is half a weeks...

Mineral Spirits will not harm anything. If one application does not achieve the desired result (after drying,) then wipe it down again, and again if necessary. I got two 1903s from the North Store...

Ummm..... I just read through this thread again, and my feeling is that most folks said that you had a nice rifle. Will probably shoot tiny groups. Please be happy with it and have fun shooting.

The HXP is fine, but it is hot! If you shoot it all afternoon you will be convinced it is not Lake City without looking at the headstamp.

I sent back the original double rifle to Traditions.

They have replaced it with one of the lower grade guns. I have tried it out with 80 gr of T7 and a 250 gr sabot. That's is not the load that I...

Mike, I think that he meant that there are none available because folks have panicked and bought more than they needed. Sales have stopped because there is no inventory, because sales have been...

if he pulls the trigger in that position! He needed to look like he was serious for the photographer but knew that he really wasn't going to shoot soon, hence the dangerous grip.

Oh, gullible me! I feel like Charlie Brown at the beginning of football season.
Anybody got an AA-quad they want to sell me?

I'm asking this question here since we don't have a Class 3 forum.

I got this ad from Gun Source this morning in an email. It doesn't look believable! If this is true, why haven't we seen any...

I'm a Life Member of NRA and support them. But, as in this case, Heller was not initiated nor was it pursued by the NRA until the Supreme Court agreed to hear the case. THEN the NRA jumped in and...

The max load of BP or Pyrodex is 150 gr, or 130 gr of TripleSeven. They don't specify the max projectile weight, but the examples that they use run from 250 to 300 gr. I don't think that there would...

Hi, another member, RCS encouraged me to try to post some photos of a double .50 BP rifle that I recently got from Traditions. The wood is beautiful and the metal work was fine. I think that the...

I'm going to miss it. I've read the board almost every day for the last 6 years. I don't know how long it will take until I am comfortable with this format. I'm just glad to see many of our regular...
