So I got the CVA Plainsman that I bought on Gunbroker in this morning. I looked it over. Its in pretty good shape. Took out its wooden ram rod and dropped it down the barrel. I got a low toned THUD, Not the TINK you expect to hear from the brass end on the ram rod hitting STEEL :eek: AWWW CRAP...

Hey guys, Can someone educate me on the old H&R 32 snubbies? I went in my LGS to make a layaway payment (on my new baby) and talk to a good buddy that works there. And I was checking out these old H&R snubbies in the case. There are quite a few of them. I found one that looks really nice and...

WOOOHOOO! I walked in my lgs today and there she was. Out of all those wheel guns laying in the case my eyes immediately focused on the 60-15 laying there. Its gently used, but in fantastic shape! The price was cheaper than any that SOLD on GB. So I plopped down some dough to put her on Layaway...

I guess SC has gone and slipped some more red tape in on use lead heads. While down here in the low country, I decided to stop by a salvage yard that I have bought some nice pure lead from in the past and maybe pick up 50lbs or so. I walk in and she asked me for my scrap metal permit. :confused...

LOL, I hope this is just a stock pic and they at least plan to send you a steel frame pistol. :eek: http://www.gandermountain.com/modperl/product/details.cgi?pdesc=Traditions-1858-Remington-New-Army-44-Revolver&i=402602

Hey Guys, I want to purchase / trade for this 32 from my father in law. The thing is beautiful. It has a 6" barrel and the finish is fantastic. I had it over here one day for a complete disassembly and cleaning. I fell in love with the thing. I don't know what model it is It just says 32 S&W...

I got to looking around last night on the web. There are no shorter barrel rifles offered in a slow twist. By short I mean 24" or so. SO what is it. does the slow twist require a long barrel to work effectively? I do love the Lyman GPR, but that sucker is not easy to wield around in a deer...

Hey Guys, I need some advice. I have been carrying my S&W Mod. 36 square butt all the time. My dilemma is the pistol is beautiful probably 95%. And of course its finish will suffer the consequences of carry. I have replaced the original grips (and stored the original grips) with a set of...

:confused: I was cruising the web last night reading stuff and I came across a thread where a fella mentioned that he would take .454rb and press them into a .36cal cylinder. He went on to state that by doing so it shaved the 44 ball down into a conical type shape. And he would fire them out of...

Hey Guys, I have the opportunity to purchase one of these cheap. I figure it may be a fun shooter and a beat around in the woods rifle. I'm having trouble finding a twist rate. The net says mostly 1:48 but I've found mention of 1:28. Do any of you own one of these. I may have to check the...

Hey guys, *First of all if you don't like a Mosin Please don't comment I've heard it all before! For those of you who have a Modified Mosin. Please post up a PIC of your best 100yard grouping. Please include the mods to the rifle, load, load data etc. I have a few of them and I'm...

Hey guys, Long time no talk. Just wanted to drop in and say Hi. After one heck of a past year, I got to thinking about some of you. I helped someone out with some .303 cases and he was gonna make .410 shells out of them and I was wondering how that turned out. Please forgive me I don't...

Hey Guys, My No.5 Mk1 (jungle carbine) has been drilled and tapped in the past for a scope mount. Well the threads look good, so I thought maybe I would try to find the mount that is compatible with the tapped holes in the receiver. If so I'll scope it and maybe hunt with it a little...

Hello All, I have decided to get a CVA Hunter or Scout for my daughter. It won't be long till she is ready to try to take a deer. She does SO good with her .22 Cricket. And I'm going with the single shot to keep that simplicity going. My question is on caliber choice in terms of RECOIL. I...

I was at a baseball game with my daughter. The Sheriff was there to throw out one of the first pitches. He later walked by our seats and I immediately started cheezin :D. His duty pistol was a Mod. 36 Chiefs Special with a Tyler T Grip! I loved seeing the old wheel gun on his hip. Just when I...

That or I'm gonna go broke buying the things. :D Took the GPR to the range yesterday, and that thing aggravated the tee total crap outta me. I got to fire it all of 1.5 times. The first time the loading / firing process went off without a hitch (she shot dead on at 25yards). Then I swabbed and...

Swamp People episode that originally aired 3-03-14, Jeromy uses a 1858 Remington to kill a MONSTER gator. No conversion cylinder either. They show the close up and you can clearly see the percussion caps on the cylinder. WOOOOOOT :p

Do the modern Inlines fall under the same rules as far as No FFL required when shipping? And can they go USPS too?

http://www.mrconservative.com/2013/04/9660-fps-youtube-gun-fanatic-has-his-house-stormed-by-40-armed-federal-agents/ Still unclear of all the details. Seems his partner/co-owner was found dead. Just thought I'd share. I enjoyed his videos and the comical spin he put on everything.
