    Problem with new Cabela's Rem. 1858

    I just purchased this Pietta C&B revolver from Cabela's. Upon arrival I cleaned the oil from everything, and mounted caps on all the nipples to check firing and clear the nipples. Cock the hammer, pull the trigger.... nothing. Cock the hammer, pull the trigger again... no bang. Cylinder is...

    "new Posts" vs. "No New Posts" icons

    I've asked this before but never received an answer. I've noticed that when I log on to TFL (or THR for that matter), the "New Posts" icons show up as they should - indicating what's new since my last visit. HOWEVER, if I open a new browser window and then go back to TFL, virtually all of the...

    I'm sold! Kahr K40 Covert

    I was browsing around the local gun shop today and stumbled on to a deal. I've been considering a Kahr MK40 or K40 Covert for some time now and was checking the price for about the umpteenth time. Right there in the case was a K40 Covert priced at $462.95 with a sale tag reading "25% Off". I...

    First time shooting CAS

    Man, what fun! This beats the heck out of poking holes in paper. I shot my first match of cowboy action shooting Sunday at the Oklahoma City Territorial Marshal's monthly shoot. My times were long and I missed more targets than I would have liked to, but I had a really good time. The folks...

    "Stellarpod.... come over to the dark side"

    Well it's finally happened. I had to reshuffle my long guns in the safe to make room for the newest tenent : A DPMS AR-15 with 20" bull barrel. Man, is this thing fun to shoot! My Garand, SKS, Yugo Mauser and Mosin-Nagants are still not speaking to me... The RWS pellet gun is really mad...

    Maybe spoke too soon on Ti-Taurus?

    I made some highly supportive statements about my 4" .357 titanium Tracker (Taurus) in another thread the other day. I've had very good experiences with my other Taurus products. But, perhaps I spoke too soon about this one. Yesterday, while cleaning I noticed what appear to be small radial...

    Yugo SKS short-stroking

    OK folks. I've done several searches and haven't come up with anything conclusive, so here goes... I bought one of the "rare" :rolleyes: Yugo SKS' that is in great condition. I cleaned it meticulously and took it to the range. Out of a box of 20 PMC 122gr. FMJ it short-stroked 17 of them...

    The UPSIDE to my Kahr P9 saga

    Many of you may have seen my posts, here and on GlockTalk, regarding the disappointment I've had with the P9 I bought several months ago. I had 5%-10% failures to go into full battery from the very beginning. Tried several remedies - all failed. I finally sent the gun back to Kahr and after 6...
