Am I dreaming or is the a spacer that you can buy so that you can adjust your die for a 357 with the spacer in place and then if you want to load 38's you just remove the spacer. Also is the same true for 44 mag/44 special. Thanks for any help/info.

Thanks everyone. I can always count on this forum. I am trying to get my son to take the time to check out your site but his life is really hectic (sp?) so I have been emailing him the high lights. Thanks again.

Bis

Thanks for the reply. I look forward to the other responses

Bis

For Christmas I gave my son my M1 and he loves it. I gave him about 60 rounds of 1941 ammo that he blew through. He has a friend that reloads and he wants more ammo. He has bought brass but wants to get primers and bullets. I seem to remeber that some one makes primers for mil. rounds that will not ...

I know what you mean about working on aircraft older than you. I was a recit. mech. (prop jobs) so everything but the 01's and C7's were old. The first bird I worked on was a C47 built in 1937

Bis

way north of me. Merry Christmas to you and your dad

Bis

Where was the 336th located at in Nam?

Bis

Was at Bien Hoa (Oct-Nov 1966). The F100 were OK but couldn't carrie the payload that the A1 Skyradiers (old prop jobs)could. We would watch F100's taxie out with 4 bombs on the wings followed by several A1's with 8 bombs underneath. They were getting very old buy the sixtys. I ended up at Phu Cat w...

Bis

Have had great service from them. Their prices might not always be the best but the customer service trumps price.

Bis

75 miles south west of willygene its $2.59 (Crockett, Tx). In Palestine its $2.57 with a Wal Mart card.

Bis

Try to have a happy birthday. You and your family will be in our prayers. I sorta know what you are going thru, except in our family I am the one with cancer.

Bis

Haven't shot mine much, but it sure is smooth.

Bis

Thanks. With luck I can find a suicidal deer on Thursday.

Bis

Thanks. Its nice to hear from you guys

Bis

Thanks everyone. One year, 364 days and I can retire, I hope. Thanks again.

Bis

Thanks, I just wanted to try something with a little more thump if I am going to try hunting with it.

Bis

Thanks, but the load data from reloaders mag. does not list pressures. They just divide the data into 3 different strength levels of rifles

Bis

CDSteve Thanks for the info, I ran a coppy of it and thanks WM I finally got it to work using the wolf publishing link. Do you folks have any idea what level of strength a 38-55 H&R handi rifle is. The one article list 3 load levels, "weak actions", "moderately strong actions"...

Bis

Thanks. I am babysitting the 4 year old grand daughter now but will try later if she ever settles down. I am getting to old for this

Bis

Thanks for the info.

Bis

I sure wish that "WM"'s link would have worked for me, I would love to get some reload data for my 38-55. Reload manuals seem a little short when it comes to the 38-55.

Bis

Dumb question- since the clip holds 8 rounds, how do you single load a round if you don't put the round in the chamber?

Bis

Thanks for the info. He doesn't reload now but someday he may. I am making notes of all the data and some day may reload some for him (I don't reload for 30-06 now).

Thanks again.

Ken

Bis

Thanks. We did, now need to find some ammo designed for the M1. I think Federal makes some.

Bis

Thanks everyone for the respones. I feel alot better now about giving him the M1 and am not going to worry about giving him the rifle.

Bis

We have not had a "slam fire " yet, just want to know how much of a problem it is. The ammo is pure mil surplus. Some is from the 40's and some from the 60's.

Bis

So do you think that if he uses ammo designed for the M1, such as Federals ammo. this will not be an issue. He does not reload yet (there is still hope

).

Bis

After several several attemps to ship a few rifles to my son in Ca. We found it easier to have him drive to Texas, to sweeten the pot I gave him my M1 Garand. After 20+ years I finally shot it with the ammo I bought with the gun, vintage 1942. I had to assist the bolt closed and didn't think anythin...

Bis

I think they designed the VA hospital after the streets in Temple. If I have to get off the blue line there, I am lost

Bis

Deafrm

Thanks for the info. I will do a yahoo map search and get a map.
Temple has some interesting streets. The VA is on 3rd street but if you drive about a mile the name of the street is 3rd, or people tell you to go south on a street and all of a sudden you are driving east.

Bis

If I did that , I couldn't afford to go to the gun shop

Bis

Since I am now going to the VA hospital every couple of weeks, I was wondering if there were any gun shops near by. The reason I say near by, I seem to get lost everytime I try to drive around Temple. The last time I tried to find the Sams Club, got directions from 4 different people that took me al...

Bis

I am feeling so old now

. do you remember " just twang your magic twanger froggy" ?

Bis

Good luck on the job, hope you get it. I have been spending a lot of time at the VA center in Temple, trying to fix these old bones. The attitude of the VA has changed so much since the late 60's, it is nice to deal with them now. PS you will love Texas, we have lived here 9 years now and it is great.

Bis

I have 4 wall hangers. One reason is they won't fit in my safes, second they are neat to look at. They are a Kentucky rifle, Brown Bess, M1842 and a M1872 Rolling Block (50-70)

Bis

After two discouraging talks with UPS and the post office, I talked to a friend that works at a UPS distribution center. She said that I need to bring a copy of the FFL license of the guy I am sending it to, show them that the gun is empty and marke the weapson in operable, in that you could not ope...

Bis

Thats what my son was told and the fee was $19.00.

If/when your bill1810 passes, long guns will be treated like handguns as far as paper work goes.

Bis

Thank you SO MUCH for the info. I guess I need to take the questions a little higher up the food chain at the local PO. I live in a town of 1472 people and just getting your mail is a stuff shoot. Your reference to USPS Pub. 52 may help a lot. Its not like I am a gun runner, all I want to do is give...

Bis

Your post explains the answers I got today. I went to the post office and was told they would ship to a FFL if the rifle was broken down. How far down I don't know. UPS would only ship to a manufactor. The gal did say, as I was leaving, that I could come in and ship it if I didn't say what was insid...

Bis

Thanks for the info, I looked for the instructions but could not find it.

The plastic case with an oversized box sounds good. Where did you find a box that long?

Bis

I am trying to ship a Marlin 336 to my son in So. Cal. I am told that I can just ship it to him, but he has a friend with a FFL so I will ship it to him. I have read several horror stories about people using UPS so I will use US Mail. I have the original box, but was thinking about buying a cheap pl...

Bis

Thanks again. How about the drawing after that?

Bis

A GIANT THANK YOU to Pete44ru for the book on ghost towns. The book arrived today, it is hard to put down. Spending several years of my youth in the gold country of N. CA. (George Town) there are lots of places that bring back memories. Again thank you.

Bis

Thanks for all the inputs. I guess I need to look around a little more. The problem is our town has 2 pawn shops, 1 of which thinks that everything they have is gold. The nearest gun shop is 55 miles away. So my selection is somewhat limited. There is a Gander Mountain but they are 90 miles away and...

Bis

I would love to get a USFA but just don't have the $, The 425 for the Taurus is a push.

Bis

I thought $425 seemed high. I wish I could have talked to them to see how firm they were on the price. The gun looks new. I am going to have to make another trip to town to check things out.

Bis

Yesterday I was looking at guns at the local pawn shop (the closest thing we have to a gun shop around here) and I saw a Taurus 45 Colt S.A.. It has a 7 1/2" barrel and the finish is highly polished and almost black. They have a tag on it for $425. I was not able to handle it or ask questions a...

Bis

Please put my name in the pot. Thanks

Bis

Remington announced that they are making a 1911. The first model will be basic, close to Mil issue for $699.
