...buy an Uberti Walker from ya. PUT IT ON SALE....NOW!!!!! I have Cabela points and Cabela gift certificates burning a hole in my pocket. ;) Comeon...it's Christmas time...where's the holiday spirit?

Can someone please verify the correct nipple to purchase for an Uberti made Walker. I believe the proper number is: 11-50-13 (for a single nipple) 11-50-136 (for six nipples) I have no idea how to cross reference these numbers to TOTW.

The M1 Garand: (2) Winchester, (3) Springfield, (1) Harrington & Richardson, (1) International Harvester

First, I should say that my girlfriend comes from an anti-gun mentality. Probably because she was born in Brazil and lived there until 12 years old before the family moved to Miami. About a month ago I took her shooting for the first time ever. I started her out with a single action Ruger...

.50AE Desert Eagle

The one thing I don't like about the Ruger Old Army is the base pin retaining pin design that requires you to use a slotted screw driver or something flat like a penny to turn the retaining pin. It is impossible to apply enough finger pressure to turn it. For the most part this isn't a big...

So as an engineer I have to ask this question....what kind of :mad::mad: jack azz :mad::mad: designs a firearm to use a wedge to hold a barrel onto a frame?...oh yeah, that'd be Samuel Colt. Sammy must have gone to the same school as those guys who design cars where you have to remove one of...

Finally, after four months I have all the components to do some 45 Colt reloading. Brass, Bullets, Dies, and Primers were all hard to get at a reasonable price. Rather than be impatient and spend the big bucks from those profiting off the shortage I took my time getting components. Last week...

Anyone have any comments regarding the quality, price, pros/cons of the following revolver: 1851 Navy .36 Caliber Blued/White Revolver I was thinking about getting one but just wasn't sure if there was something more interesting to get in a 1851 elsewhere.

I identify yourself if you are in the The Firing Line Photo Contest.

I DVR-ed and watched the mini-series "Lonesome Dove" that was re-released on AMC this past weekend on the series 20th anniversary. I noted seeing Robert Duval wielding a Walker Colt as his holstered sidearm. It appeared to be converted to a cartridge firearm. The question is, what cartridge...

Okay, we know there is a shortage of primers and that has had an effect on the price but I just have to ask since I need large pistol primers. 1. Pre-Obama: What was the "normal" price for 1000 Winchester large pistol primers? 2. Post-Obama: What are y'all paying per 1000 large pistol primers now?

Colt 1862 Police Avenging Angel

Finally took the new 1858 for a test spin this past Saturday. I shot 30 rounds. I was fairly pleased with this firearm. It was a "blast" to shoot. Lots o-fun-n-smoke! The first 24 rounds I used 25 grains of 777 whereas the last 6 rounds it was 30 grains. I always use a lubricated Wonder...

I asked Powder Inc what the story was on Diamondback black powder. Was told basically, the Brazilian manufacturer of Elephant black powder restarted operations sometime last year (after a long shutdown due to natural disaster) and is now marketing the powder as Diamondback instead of Elephant...

I was wondering how these more obscure black powders compared to GOEX 3Fg in your BP revolver. Please tell me your assessment after having used them versus your use of GOEX.

I thought I'd make another attempt at trying to take some decent pictures. This time I got a little art-sie fart-sie.

It was a nice day here in Orlando so I decided to take the ROA out and make some smoke. My typical loads were 35 grains of Hodgdon 777. Just for fun a did a few cylinders with 40 grains. That was fun...nice bang and lots-o-smoke. I then tried several shots with 45 grains (equivalent to 51...

I just received a new Uberti made 1858 Remington. Initial inspection shows a pretty well made firearm for the most part...but...and you knew a "but" was coming...it would seem that the barrel alignment is less than perfect. Unfortunately, the front sight is mounted on that misaligned barrel...
