Turns out it just needed some Kroil, and a few nudges back and forth on the extended foot that blocks the hammer.
Then, I could get it working with the sliding switch as intended.

I found a clean Miroku '92 w/tang switch. It's stuck in the forward/FIRE position.
Is there some sort of lock-out feature under the switch, perhaps to prevent
inadvertent activaion? I recall that the old method was to rely on the half-cock.

Thanks.

Hello all, been eons since I have visited here. I happened into a clean '94,with a sadly damaged front sight. I ordered the complete ghost-ring set from XS. Were it not for my arthritis, I basically could shove it into the dovetail without any trouble. Before going further, I want to get her to the ...

You do have a point there, Mick.

Wow, OK. The top-two are better feed reliability and smoother action. Are they at all less mechanically complicated, or on-par with the latter designs?

A young man on U-Lube recently put out a ' Top 5 Rifles for H/D' type video. His 5th place was a levergun, surprising enough, but he uses an 1873.
Since I've never handled one, what would be some reasons why one would do so over the latter designs.

My DA Smith .45s could handle empties (from its own chamber) with aplomb. Worked great for tap-rack-assess drills. I had to find 1911, or other, cases with deformed mouths to use for malf-drills. Of course some 1911s may not beat-up their brass as badly as others.

A 'MUST-read', for sure. http://www.gunlaws.com/persafe.htm

If the dealers ingored him, then asked me what I'd paid, I'd have to have some fun at their expense.

This a/m's southwestern respaste was three huevos, over-easy, atop a red-chili pork tamale. Side of diced cheddar-wurst sauteed w/onions.

.. when I would say Mindanao their eyes would get very wide and they'd say they had never been there and were scared to go . Which I kinda think was a crock on their part . . Same thing I got from Filipinos before I left the US! Mindanao is HUGE, and the lion's share of the nastiness is in the deep...

6PT, CONGRATS! Please don't interpret this as raining on your parade/s, upcoming. It's just that you, and perhaps others here, may not realize it yet. You need to prepare for the prejudice she will face here in the US from those immigrants from the North (Luzon), who are NOT Bisayan. My bud's Nanay ...

Saw the bros. on Letterman. They ROCK

Welcome from your Phoenix neighbor.

Good luck! A fresh, or storebought, flour tortilla is all the same to me. The one time I had a fresh CORN torilla, I swore off storebought ever again.

Can't wait for the pics. Lotsa CDO pinay here in my town. They all seem to share a 'unique' personality, LOL.

LAST weekend's funshow here in Phoenix saw just shy of 14K entrants on Saturday! There lines 300 deep for one ammo seller, and one of his tables, and over 100 deep at his other table. This was constant for the four hours I spent there. Insane.

pneuby

My g/f is on-board pretty well. Her strongest complaint about firearms is that some are 'ugly'.

pneuby

Yeah, whether you have a job, or investments, you have to show the ability to provide support. Tax returns are a must. If you're not filing...then you're not petitioning anyone.

Glad you live in an enlightened county of Kali

Good little gun, just be sure you understand the part explaining the 200rds needed for a thorough
break-in of the gun.

After break-in, then see what kind of defensive ammo the both of you like.

Originally, the enemy in the film WERE the Chinese. Producers backed off, and it's been undergoing re-filming and editing for like THREE YEARS to show the enemy as North Korea.

I know there is not a lot of love here for this, but I actually miss the one in Marinecoat that I sold. When I saw one today, I had to check it out. THe stock is an ATI unit. Adj. cheekpiece, and for fore and aft like on the AR15 unit.There was a slight bit of looseness in this one, but it could be ...

I've had a few blood sausages in a pub, and had Dinuguan a few times. Don't dislike either, but they didn't inspire me, neither.

Yes, there's a reason for the Kosher and Halal methods that drain the blood.

A good menudo is delicious. Cow tripe, white hominy, onion and spices. Or, there's white (broth) menudo, too. I don't care for stewed chitlins, but WILL eat my share of fried ones. Reminds me of chewier calamari, LOL.

That is exactly the storyline followed in the film. You nailed it.

Did you know that when the Allies landed at Normandy, they captured a Korean in a German uniform? That fact was behind the making of this Korean movie. While filmed in that language, the RedBox copy I grabbed thoughtfully had a complete English track, along with English subtitles. I'd say that withi...

Been here in Phoenix 17yrs. The Mexican 'Sonoran' style dog is tough to beat. Oh, average beef dog, as such, but...wrapped in a coil of bacon, and baked together. The bun is a bolillo (bo-LEE-yo). Light, fluffy, soft bread you could honestly use as a pillow. Fixins are generally sauteed onion, pinto...

Rifle optics brace the lenses against jarring forward inertia. When the gun recoils back, inertia wants to force the tube innards forward. Springers release and have little rearward recoil, for the most part, but....that spring comes to screeching halt. That 'thwomp' jars scopes toward the REAR, and...

That's a steal of a deal for a clean PM9.

From Samar, to CDO City has got to be something around 250miles. That's amazing she felt it that far south.
Besides Metro Manila, I think Armscor also has an operation in Cebu City, which would much closer to the quake.
My g/f is returning from Manila this weekend.

pneuby

That Colt-ish revolver they are bringing in leaves FAR, far too much to be desired, IMHO. I'm surprised anyone would buy a 2nd. Their 1911's seem to be very serviceable...with many saying you need only to change the springs. I've not handled the shotguns at all.

You have the cats near the border, big time. Don't know about the bears. THere was a rabid bobcat in Tucson a couple years back that attacked at least two people, if not three. While I understand the need/want for something hi-cap, I also see the need for something more reliable for the 4-legged att...

LOL, just what I was thinking. Maybe it's an annoying local law, or game reg? Anyhoo, I shot the Scout a couple times at the last demo event here. The two rounds from the bench were very comfortable. I felt more of the punch from a standing position. I have NO idea what ammo Ruger provided, but I am...

BOTH were quite a find! Big fun waiting for those kids.

The Mossy is nothing more than the Henry...aka Ithaca...design with Mossy's tag and at an ever higher price. They put their tang switch on it, of course, and I bet that's why the trigger sets much further forward then on the Henry.

That Taurus is 'da BOMB.

pneuby

I've been looking at that same one for my g/f. For a 'hi-cap' plastic gun, it's got a really small grip circumference. And, there's a 2nd strike capability. Main reason is, she likes something with a trigger weight that really makes her 'work' to discharge the gun, LOL. She said the Kahr was too LIG...

Win/USA 115gr JHP at the Wally World. Less than half the cost. I can afford to run enough of this through the gun to make SURE it's reliable. I can use up a box or two per year w/o breaking the bank. I can stay 'fresh' with my carry ammo. I don't depend on the magic bullets. If I have to use the gun...

Thanks, Nate. I'd rather not alter the receiver, especially if there's other means. perhaps I will try to find a spare stock ane experiment.

pneuby

I shoot LH, so it just didn't seem workable to me. However, can a saddle ring be installed from the RH side of the gun?

pneuby

Slings: Is there a single-point option out there? If not, what did you use? I'm not opposed to the thought of one of the ballistic nylon quivers out there, either. Anyone use those? Stock: I've read here that the Ramline takes a lot of effort to fit. Are there replacement wood units available at a r...

I've never found one where I can work the lever without pulling the buttplate right off my shoulder. Perhaps a slip-on rubber pad would help, but yes...sweet gun overall for sure.

pneuby

WOW! I'd certainly rather have 12-15rds on-tap than having to reload a 5rd mag over and over. Plus, the sheer joy and balance of that Mountie. The lever is the superior plinker, for sure.

pneuby

What are these .357 carbines bringing in your neighborhood, assuming say...95%+ shape?

pneuby

WHOA, there! At a bare minimum, you should get it into a controlled humidity environment first, and let it get some moisture. You might end up cracking the neck or fretboard just by tweaking a dried-out instrument. I would consider getting this to a local dealer with a luthier on staff.

You're not registering the barrel, you're registering your receiver as a short-barreled rifle. Even if you keep the 16" barrel in place, you still have a legal SBR. Anyone you trust can cut the barrel for you. No law/s against that. Installing such a barrel on your gun w/o it having been regist...

.. what is with the new trend in boxy airline approved saddlebags recently? I understand the new bags are easily removed, but seems they could do that and not have them looking like a square box. Bikes like that, designed to be 'adventure-touring' (aka off-road) rigs, have hard-use bags. They have ...
