Still on my list. GOD Bless.

I always loved the old write-ups on Armaloy. Never had the opportunity to own one but I'd say you are very fortunate.

Ron Macy

Over several years I made fortunate and cheap purchases of Marlin .357, 44 and 30-30 rifles. The .357 came with 400 rounds of reload 38 Spl and I now have 100 rounds of 44 Mag ammo. I sold the 30-30 to get the 44 Mag ammo plus dies and a couple of pounds of powder. I have a rifle my wife and I can s...

Ron Macy

Has anyone here ever explored the possibility of a Model 92 in 327 Magnum? Living here in Indiana I think a Model 92 I could shoot with the 327 Magnum or with the tamer 32 Magnum would be versatile enough to handle 99% of the shooting I do. I have wished NEF would come out with their nice single sho...

I hope the recipe I sent Doc (Old depression recipe) for Dago Mac makes it into the book. A family recipe in collusion with an Italian neighbor who always said "Us Dagos know how to eat cheap".

My internet read/write has been at a standstill for two months like everyone else. Hope this goes through but I need to find the spot to sign up. I voted for Print.

I was looking at a posting on Family Friends Firearms site about a 1891 S&W .22 cal target pistol and thinking how great it would be to have the skills needed to build one of those. Then I ran across these levergun postings and I’m stunned at the abilities of you machinists to work in a no mista...

Ron Macy

If I had a skill like that .... Oh well, I don't. Thank you for posting on your work. It's truly incredible.

Ron Macy

Looks llike several to try. Thanks for all the input.

Ron Macy

Thanks guys. That's a great starting place for me.

Ron Macy

I'm trying to find a way for my SIL to have a "shooter". He has a 6.5 Carcano he'd like to shoot but can't afford the slightly oversize bullets. I found some cases for him from Graf and gave them to him. Now I've found 500 lead bullets, 140grain, .264 dia. His rifle slugs .268-.269 and the...

Ron Macy

I'm looking forward to reading about it. I have a Coach Gun I wouldn't mint working on in that manner.

Ron Macy

That's beautiful. First the Volcanic and now this Roller. Peoples talents amaze me.

Ron Macy

It looks like a .22 Short might work okay. That is one really good looking project.

Ron Macy

One of my most thrilling sites ever was on the interstate while driving across Missouri. My daughter and I saw Warthogs hedgehopping back and forth across the highway. Beautiful.

Ron Macy

May HIS face shine upon you. I'll offer a prayer.

Ron Macy

Great looking site. Something like that was always a wish for me but it never worked out. I hope you enjoy to the fullest.

Ron Macy

I've had both and think you can't go wrong with either. Buy both is the best solution. Wish I had both back. I'm becoming concerned about lead bans. Starts me thinking about being able to cast lighter weight slugs to stretch my lead. I hope that's nonsense, but with the group we have in Washington i...

Ron Macy

I'd like to have a single shot 327, 32H&R, etc. just because the european ROOK rifle concept always appealed to me. If NEF doesn't offer one I'll probably never have one but it still appeals to me.

Ron Macy

I cheat. I write into an email I send to myself which also lets me spell check. Then I copy paste it into the forum.

Ron Macy

That's a darned good looking truck. Really nice job on the work you've done.

Ron Macy

I know I can't make a weekend of it since I care for my 89 yr. old mother. But if you tell me a time and place and cost I'll try for Sunday.

Ron Macy

I buy 1,000 rounds a year for each grandchild. 500 for Birthdays and 500 for Christmas. The Christmas expenditure is about $50 more a year than it was a couple of years ago. The girls like to shoot as much as the boys.

Ron Macy

It looks wonderful. Those years for me are unfortunately past but the memories remain.

Ron Macy

With this question ringing bells I went back and checked Juniors website www.castbullet.com as he has an article on shooting roundballs in a 30-30. He gor 1 1/4" groups from 45 grain round balls for a squirrel load. At 1000 fps it is close to a 22LR. With a peanut jar full of round balls added ...

Ron Macy

With those parameters here in NE Indiana I'd go with 357 Magnum revolver and 22LR in a long gun. An extra long gun would be a lever 357 if allowed.

Actually with my wife being a shooter too it opens it up to a collective 2 rifles and 2 handguns.

Ron Macy

I agree on the Time Life Series. Collectively, they give a touchstone of most facets of the western development.

Ron Macy

Prayers forthcoming. Family health definitely outweighs all other considerations.

Ron Macy

There's a big article on "Spanish Goats" in this months "Hobby Farms" magazine. Less care and hands on than other breeds and used as an improver for Boers and others due to natural immunities. Also some good information on Spanish herds at http://www.hobbyfarms.com . Lots of info...

Ron Macy

I get mine from www.thompsoncigar.com by typing in "Mild" for the selection and checking from there. Each selection shows ring size and length. Prices run from 50 cents to 10 dollars so selections are numerous.

Ron Macy

I was going to give Doc a Welcome Back, till I saw the date.

Ron Macy

I saw a new Marlin in 32-20 Friday in a nearby shop. Really nice rifle, but at $750 it's way out of my price range. I think gun pricing has left me behind for good.

Ron Macy

I lost a nice willow to beaver three years ago. Trunk was 11" when I measured the stump that was left.

DNR trapped and removed 7 from our little 170 acre lake this spring. Glad they're gone.

Ron Macy

I wondered what happened to Junior and Doc. I sent Doc a couple of recipes I hope he found useful.
I imagine Junior is really apoplectic with Bobby Jingal down there.

Ron Macy

I went with 30-30 for ME because I'm finding the old body won't tolerate a 45/70 anymore. 44 Mag would work okay too though for a bigger hole.

Ron Macy

Could be serious. My daughter took one look at the photo and said it looked exactly like a spider bite she had a couple of years ago. Went to Redi Med. Put on anti-biotics as a red streak had started up her arm. The Dr. made an ink pen mark accross her arm and told her if either of the streaks cros...

Ron Macy

Brandywine tomatos which are an heirloom and the meatiest I ever ate, Little yellow pear tomatos right off the vine, habaneros and jalapenos (different flavor), blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, raspberries and some bush beans this year. Hopefully added to next year.

Ron Macy

When I lived in Waggoner, OK I found an old hand crank forge at a sale. Bought fireclay to reline the fire bed and someone stole the darned thing during the week. Never found another one.

Ron Macy

After having three back operations, I can no longer wear a belt. Also being deprived of a prominent hind quarters, even keeping a pair of pants up with a pair of light dress suspenders is a challenge. I either wear a many pockets vest or carry a fanny pack for the incidentals. It comes out to about ...

Ron Macy

For me, a .22 combo would include a "sharpfinger". I haven't seen an original for a while but Sportsmans Guide sells a pretty good knockoff.

Ron Macy

I like to consider myself a responsible environmentalist in my everyday life. The movement has gone so radical and short sighted that I don't make that claim in public much. This pine bark beetle is an example of short sighted environmentalism and the all or nothing approach. All three of the exampl...

Ron Macy

That's a good effect. Price is right where many of us can afford to experiment with it. Nice work.

Ron Macy

Sorry for your loss. You'll have flashbacks of "remember when" forever. I think you need to make sure your dad had all the t's crossed too.What happens if he had an unregistered gun and you all of a sudden present it for ducumentation? Charges, penalties, confiscation or who knows what. Yo...

Ron Macy

Some of us have been better than good. Others, not so much. Welcome back.

Ron Macy

Welcome aboard GG.

I've got a blue Marlin .357 but have seriously thought of having an "ARMORIZE" treatment done on it. Just need to save my dimes. It's a microscopic "orange peel" effect which greatly reduces the chrome flash.

Ron Macy

I checked this out now, as I did 40 years ago. It looks really neat but has always been beyond my financial limits. Dummy for never getting a degree.

A fellow I knew had a Corbin press forty years ago that operated horizontally. He made some great 1/2 jacket 45's with it.

Ron Macy

The smallest mule deer I've shot field dresses at 128 pounds when we weighed it at the locker. That was with a 100 grain 243. Personally, I might go with a 125 grain in 30 cal, but wouldn't be comfortable going lighter. We all have our own comfort zone. A decent whitetail around where I live now mig...

Ron Macy

I bought the 303 Savage for a friend and 6.5 Italian for my SIL for all the help they've been around my place at the lake. Both calibers of brass look really good.

Ron Macy

I shoot 125-130 grain bullets out of my 30-30 but I file the nose off flat to the start of the jacket. That knocks another 4-5 grains off. For me, I'd hesitate to drop down to 110 grain bullets, for deer size animals, but that's just me.

Ron Macy

There are BOB's and BIB's and in some respects they overlap. The object is survival. I'm 68, going for my 4th back operation (this time a fusion) and unlike USMC won't be fighting a war regardless. Today, before the operation I can only walk about 100 yards. Make your bag fit your circumstances. Hun...
