Hello all, It's good to have TFL back. :) I'm needing some help. I have received a donation of a really nice 7x57 Mauser with a Lyman Peep sight system for my Hunter Education class. I don't load for this gun and I was wondering if anybody out there would load up some DUMMY rounds for load...

My friend just called me,He was given an old console TV for parts and when he removed all the screws on the back he found a .22lr Liberty Scout single action revolver. Marking say it is from the Liberty Firearms Corporation based in Montrose Ca. It also has H schmidt Germany on it. Does...

I'm looking for a Caliber that I can convert to make 6.5 Carcano brass for my friend. I can get new Norma brass for $1 each, but there must be somebody who has or knows how to do this. I do enjoy a challenge.

A friend of mine says he was given one of these. It is supposed to be a .357 8" bbl (He thinks its a 629) that has an extra cylinder that is a .44mag with Sabboted .357 bullets. I have not seen this gun yet and I'm supposed to get some photo's especially of the .44mag cylinder and ammo. The...

A Friend gave me a few for my .44 they look like big rubber .177Cal pellets. I just stick them in flush with the case and power them with only a primer. Amazing accuracy at 25' I was shooting into a heavy cardboard box and they went through and through, I then put a piece of drywall as a...

http://www.spokesmanreview.com/news-story.asp?date=071001&ID=s989714 Here is the news story on the shooting. The man who was carrying had a shoulder holster over his T-shirt. You could see that while he was in the Police car. There are conflicting reports as to the exact sequence of events...

I have been wanting a Dehorned Kimber Pro Carry or Ultra carry or one of that size for awhile. I need a few Ideas in that area. I already have a full sized 1911 Colt. My wife says $700+ for a pistol is just to much to spend (I just bought her a Taurus 85 ss snubbie,she thinks the $150 I paid...

I'm loading my first batch of 230 lrn hardcast bullets. These are burgess bullets out of Moses Lake WA,(got a call into them) these are .452 Dia. I'm using 5.1grs W231, most load data shows the OAL to be 1.27. If I seat the bullet to 1.27 it looks like it is hardly in the case. and the lube...

I have been a member since Aug.2000 I have enjoyed the exchange of Ideas and information. During that time there have been several upgrades and new servers,All of which cost quite a bit,yet I see no Adds,nobody has asked for any dues,and I was wondering How TFL is supported? I'm thankful that...

My 1911's plunger tube is loose,How does it attach? It looks like Hex head screws sort of,but I cannot get it tight. It moves enough that the Safety Plunger will slip past the Thumb Safety,So I have to push the safety plunger in so I move the thumb safety. What do I need to repair this.

I Proudly use Lee Handload Equipment. I have found that for the Pistols I load for that The auto Index turret press works great. I have a second press that the Ram was defective. It would not hold the shell holder right,I sent it to Lee and within 7 days of leaving my house the replacement...

It was suggested to me to Taper Crimp my revolver loads. I use the Lee Factory Crimp Die for my Auto's and I'm interested in Taper for .38/.357 .44spl/mag. The factory crimp die for the revolvers are a roll crimp. The Lee Taper Crimp Die states that Jacketed bullets need a crimp groove. That...

George, How hard is it to port the barrel on my Taurus 431 SS 3" .44 Spl? The factory ports several revolvers. Would I see any real benefits or would I lose because of it? Should it be done at all. I like to shoot at 1000-1100 fps and wondered if porting would help on getting back on...

Did a search got zero. Was looking for a compact single stack .45ACP to complement my 1911A1. I'd like a Colt commander but Cost is a factor. A Dealer showed me Republic Patriot .45 It kinda looks like a Kahr P9 in size and shape. I have never heard anything about this gun. It is $290...
