If you go to this link, scroll about halfway down the page. Look for the item titled GUN POSTER-WHY POLITICIANS HATE THEM. I may be wrong, but that looks like classic Oleg to me. Look 6 places above that for COPS VS. GUNS. For some humor, look 4 down from the poster to see YOU'VE GOT TO SEE...

The Oct. issue of GUNS has a John Taffin article about custom Marlin leverguns, and mentions Brian Cosby as being a good 'smith for doing a takedown package on an 1895 in .450 Marlin. Taffin lists a website, www.cosbycustomguns.com, but it's under construction. The only other info is a phone #...

If you love the C-96 "Broomhandle" Mauser, you will go positively ape over this. Be forewarned, however: cover your keyboard to protect against drool. http://www.iar-arms.com/mauser.htm

Another thread here got me to wondering, how many members here have experieced being "rained on" by lead shot while bird hunting? I've had the experience many times. My Dad used to own a 2200 acre parcel of prime hunting land which was managed primarily for doves, ducks, and quail. We would...

I have had three "dud" reloads happen to me, and I'd like to hear some opinions as to cause. Two of the reloads were from a batch of 200 rds. of .45 Colt using Unique powder. The first launched the bullet from the barrel, but it hit the gound about 50 ft in front of me (I was aiming at a target...

Just wondering how many TFLers have had a smallpox vacination. A smallpox outbreak could be far more deadly than anthrax.

It has come to my attention that once again, certain members are yelling "censorship" and blathering about their first amendment rights being violated, due to off topic threads being closed. Let's get it straight, once and for all. This little piece of cyberspace, while open to anyone who...

I've checked Hornady's site and found load data for the .450 Marlin there, but does anyone know of any other sources? I'm wondering if Vihta Vihouri has any data for any of their powders.

One bright April morning, the day still a-dawning, as farmers went about their tasks, there came a warning; "The British are coming! To arms, for liberty's sake!" The farmers, the clerks, the lawyers and all Did not shirk their duty, they heard the call. With dread in their hearts, but with...

Could any of our Vermont TFLers verify this? I hope it's true, 'cause it's the first gun registration program I've ever heard proposed that I would support 100%.
