I do quite a few low mount applications on 1911's using the smaller reflex sights being manufactured today. I'm often ask which sights I recommend. I've used the old Tasco Optima, the Doctor and the Leupold sight. I've always favored the Doctor because of its metal case and glass lens. I have...

I went to an estate auction yesterday, it was very much like most farm auctions I attend. In general guns at these auctions usally go high because they are purchased without any paper work but ammo in most cases is reasnoable. At this auction guns and ammo was high, a Revelation bolt action 410...

I just had a customer of mine that has several Remington 700 rifles call me and ask about Remingtons unsafe triggers. He said he was watching a TV show that claimed Remington 700 trigger systems to be unsafe and he's very concerned. I told him in all my years of being in business I only knew of...

One benifit of being in the business I'm in is that I get to test fire several different types of guns after I've worked on them. The other day a customer of mine that I've done a lot of work for dropped off a Springfield EMP in 9mm caliber for a front sight change and requested I test fire the...

Does anyone here use Shaw rifle barrels? If so what is your experience with them? The reason I ask is I have a Savage with a 20 inch heavy barrel in 223, I believe Savage called this their truck gun model. I wanting to go to a longer barrel and stay with the 223 caliber. I'm considering either...

I getting ready to start reloading for a savage 99 light weight model in 250-3000 caliber. Anyone have any pet loads they would care to share? I would prefer loads using IMR powders as I have several different IMR powders on hand. However I consider any good safe loads regardless of the brand...

Today I was going through some of my old stuff looking for some of my old reloading manuals. Doing so I came accross a yearly Guns Illustrated book dated 1970, so I started thumbing through it. The Colt 1911A1 blue Government model in 45acp caliber was priced at $115.50, in nickle finish it was...

Has anyone here ever shot in the Gateway dynamite shoot? Is it still taking place? Best Regards Bob Hunter www.huntercustoms.com

I need some advice from any vintage ammunition collectors that may be reading this. The other day I picked up a light weight take down model Savage 99 in 250-3000 cailber. Along with the rifle I also aquired several full boxes of ammunition. I have four boxes of Western Super X 100 gr...

Well just as the title says I missed out on a good one. Most of us at one time or another have picked up a rifle that felt as if it was built for us. The balance, the fit, the feel is perfect. I was at a gun auction the other day and there it was, a half magazine, saddle ring, Winchester 94...

I have a customer that's in need of a 32 caliber slide for a Remington model 51. I tried Gun Parts INC but they don't have any. I thought I would check here in case anyone may know of one. Best Regards Bob Hunter www.huntercustoms.com

I believe at one time Remington offered their model 121 smooth bore rifle with a clay target kit called a MO-Skeet kit. I think I might have one of these clay target throwers and the small clay targets that go with it. Does anyone have any information about or possilbly a picture of the thrower...

I find it's getting harder to find rifle scopes with a locking ring on the eye piece of the scope, (what I prefer). I have scopes that have the fast focus eyepiece and it seems with a little use they get easier to turn the eye piece out of focus when you are not wanting to. So I came up with a...

There was a gentleman at one time that came to these boards whose name is Harry Bonar. I've not seen any postings by him for a long time, is he still around? Best Regards Bob Hunter www.huntercustoms.com

I'm thinking about buying some snowshoes for coyote hunting in deep snow. What brought this on was I shot a coyote yesterday and it was not a clean kill so I decided to track the coyote and finish what I started. After a 3/4 mile hike through some very deep snow (at times up to my croch) I knew...

I was getting ready to go out and do my morning chores, went to the kitchen sink to get some water so my morning coffee would be brewing while I was outside. I look out my kitchen window and low and behold there stands Wiley coyote just south of the barn. I knew my guineas were down form their...

I'm not sure what's going on but my coyote calling has taken a nose dive. I've been hunting hard the last few days, making a lot of sets, and I've not seen one coyote. I'm not even seeing coyotes out in the fields on my way to and from calling; this is unusual. One thing that's taken place is...

Here in Missouri there's been more sightings of mountain lions lately, however the MDC for years claimed mountain lions don't exist in Missouri. They also claim they have never turned any loose, I'm not sure I believe that. Last year a bow hunter around Chillicothe Missouri got an excellent...
