In my dreams, I hope to one day purchase a double rifle, if forn no other reason than to shoot and say I own one. In the interim, I have thought about trying to build myself one on a shotgun action. In Gun List, Bunduki Publishing of Ft. Collins, CO advertises a book by W. Ellis Brown called...

Have two Sako magnum actions and two beautiful Sako pull-off stocks that I'm planning on turning into a couple of "classic" rifles in .300 and .375 H&H. Trying to decide on barrels for the project. I can go just down the road to Shilen; this option will be somewhat pricey, but I know the quality...

I'm thinking about dabbling in the arena of shotshell reloading. I have been reolading for rifle and pistol cartridges for several years but have no experience with shotshells. Over the past couple of years I have become increasingly interested in hunting waterfowl and have started thinking...

Check out Sarco's add in the latest Shotgun News - P14's for $74.50 ea or 3/$210 (pg 88).:D

OK! Here I am again with more 50 caliber questions. With my impending purchase of a new 50 rifle, I have an opportunity to purchase 100 rounds of ammo. I think I can get this for 100$, but being a 50 cal virgin, I would like to hear some input before dropping a C-note. The headstamp is LC70. The...

Unless there is a drastic change in the review's of the Ferret 50, that is the .50 caliber that I will be purchasing to put on a new AR15 lower. Now, in order to mount a scope, will I need a stock that had a higher cheekpiece than factory? What I'm thinking is a black & grey wood laminate with a...

I seem to have the itch for a an entry level.50 cal and am torn between either the Armalite AR-50 are the Ferret 50 (the SS bolt .50 that fits on an AR lower). The idea of no paperwork for the Ferret is an idea I could come to love, but have no further information than what is offered on their...

I broke down and ordered my new handcannon. Where in the past, I have shot mainly large caliber handguns in either a Contender or the newer Encore, I decided I couldn't live without a FA .475 Linebaugh. It is scheduled to arrive mid-spring, so now I am searching for reloading components, mainly...

Did a search and found little information on the slow rust blueing process. Thinking about building a "humidity box" and would like any and all info I can get on this and the process. I have several projects started and am thinking of this "traditional" blueing instead of relying on someone else...

Looking for a source(s) for a varity of solder-on sights and barrel band swivels. I would like to build a couple of large caliber rifles on Mauser actions and would like to add sights. I have looked through the Brownell's catalog but would like to see a larger selection if possible. I do like...

Just placed an order for a 17 Ackley Hornet and a 300-221 (300 Whisper)from Virgin Valley (they are having a sale on shorty barrels). I would like to purchase needed equipment for case forming and reloading before the barrels arrive. I have been reloading for several years, but only with...

Recently received an 03A3 from the CMP that I won through the lottery. Since I neither have the knowledge or, for that matter, a book about the Springfield, I am in hopes that someone can either answer some questions or at least point me in the right direction. It is a Remington. Action reads...

I recently purchased a 10" Contender barrel in .32 H&R Mag. This barrel came with a front sight but no rear sight. I would like to bring this barrel back to original condition with the proper sights. My question is which variation of the Contender sight fits this barrel? This barrel has the...

I'm looking for a firing pin for a BRNO CZ-52 pistol. Can someone point me in the right direction? Cris

I purchased a .22 rifle from the CMP and would like to restore to orignal. What I'm looking for is the rear sight (Redfield Palma). Can anyone tell me where I might find this item? Cris

I am torn between the two. I have a Sako magnum action that I would like to use to build a "long range" rifle -1000 yds. I will be reloading so ammo cost and availability is not a concern. I have read good things about accuracy from the .308 Norma. My set-up will likely be Sako action, Hart or...

I recently purchased a .45-70 rifle barrel for my Encore and would like to install a peep sight. I have several William's peeps on various lever's, but am looking toward a T/C peep made especially for the Encore. Would like to hear the pros & cons of using this particular sight from those with...

I seem to have aquired a recent urge for a double rifle. The problem that I am facing is I have limited funds with which to purchase said rifle. I would love to get my hands on one of the great classic doubles, but seeing this is not in my near future, I am looking to alteratives. What are my...

I purchased an H&R Model M12 Target .22 from the CMP. Although this rifle came with a receiver sight base, it had no sights. I have since purchased a Lyman model 90 MJT receiver sight for this rifle. The problem is the attachment screw for the Lyman sight is too small for the base on the rifle...

As I was skimming thru the latest Gun List, I ran on to an insurance company that lists insurance for guns, knives, and various collectibles at, what I consider, very reasonable rates. The company is: CIA (Collectibles Insurance Agency, Inc.) P. O. Box 1200 Wesminister, MD 21158-0299 (888)...
