Yea the prob with chees cloth is it's inconsistent.

I did the search but couldn't find anything I could see just one layer of. They all seem to show it folded up. My problem is I still need visibility through it. Maybe find some white and dye it beige?

A few years ago, I bought a decent, light weight, camo bug suit from Wally world, I think. It was on sale cheap and so far I like most everything about it. It's the guile suit type. The only thing I didn't like was the netting that came from the hood over your face. It was dark black and you could h...

Thanks very much for the replies, friends. I rubbed my finger along the inside edge of the front of the loading gate with the action opened and you are right - it is as prickly as a cactus. I am going to take it down tomorrow and work on those burrs. I am sure that will fix my problem. I should hav...

Well I guess some of us see things a little different. First off, he DOES carry a gun, but later in the movie, and he does so realizing that is the way he will get his justice. His mask, not sure where Rush's "guest" got his info, but in the movie Tonto made it for him from the leather ves...

Remember the 357 shotshells were too loud for her, so it will have to be a 22LR or maybe the WMR shotshells. Most likely LR. Yea I do have and have owned quite an assortment of "handirifles" That's where the moniker started. So far I've been able to use it almost every forum I get on. keep...

That is not a snake. It's a tree that slithers and eats deer :shock: :shock: I lived near Charleston, SC in the 60's and used to hunt the swamps with my 22 rifle. One day I was hunting near a channel of water and came to an area that widened quite a bit, then there was a small island in the middle o...

My wife and I saw it and loved it. I noticed he got over his dislike for guns when it suited him. He also mentioned in one scene with his stage brother, he hadn't held one for 9 years, so there was SUPPOSED to be a story behind the feeling. Tonto was fantastic, but we love Johnny Depp. Didn't notice...

handirifle

OM an update. First off I looked, and the gun is actually an MKIII not the MKII, my mistake. Same gun for all intents I believe. No the shot shells (capsule ones) do not cycle the bolt, didn't expect it to either, but I DID expect them to eject when I work the bolt briskly. My wife tried the 38/357 ...

handirifle

Well the failure to eject was with std ammo too, that's what really bugged me. I do not expect it to eject the bird shot when fired, not enough power, but I DO expect it to eject them when manually worked, and I do expect it to feed them. The low budget 38 is an idea though. I already have a Ruger S...

Thank you for the comments and suggestions fellas. I am leaning towards the Benjamin Marauder in .25 caliber. If anyone has any experience with the pre-charge Marauder please let me know. The suggestions for CB caps and other firearms specific solutions are perfectly valid for many applications, bu...

I had to drive to a neighbors house and shoot a rattlesnake tonight. No biggie, her husband works week on week off. My wife held the light and I shot it with the bird shot from the Ruger MKII 22 semi auto pistol and it did not perform as I had hoped. We have used it on gophers with zero problems. No...

As of about 10:30PM he was still in the tree. Most likely either healing up from the dog or cooling off. It was about 100 deg here today. Hopefully he's gone in the morning. I figure he's eather healing up there or dying, either way I will probably know in the morning.

handirifle

Did you know you can take the crank and rods (the 258's are shorter) from the 258 and use them in the 4.0? It becomes a stroked inline six, now displacing 4.7L and WAY more power. I knew guys that did it. had to upgrade the injectors too, to supply enough fuel. The new version put out 270hp (up from...

I live in the country, and we see all kinds of critters on and around the property, but never anything like today. The wife and I had just finished eating dinner.

The 2001 TJ we used to have, 4.0L manual 5spd, and it got 15-16 when it had both 3.42 and later 4.10 gears. The 4.10's make it rev more but it is soooo much more responsive, both off road and on. As for the little v6 having more power, it's subjective. Compare actual weoghts of the two vehicles. I a...

handirifle

I'd love to have a bone stock hard-top TJ with a 4 cylinder (if they only made a diesel) and 5 speed transmission but hard to find here in the islands. Save a bunch on fuel costs and still capable enough offroad for my needs. Get a used one with a blown or damaged 6 cyl engine, then swap in a Cummi...

180 gr. cast RFN with a gas check. 15.0 gr. of LilGun. 1700-1800 fps. Deer slayer. Proven. From 30yds to 110 yds. Excellent Urban Defense Rifle too. Doesn't freak out the Sheeple as much as an EBR. Yea, thats always a consideration nowdays. I suppose if a 357 from a handgun can do it, a rifle only ...

handirifle

How well does this combo work? Am curious of loads at all levels. I have a Savage target rifle I never use and am considering selling it off to buy a pistol cartridge levergun. Also bullets being hard to come by, casting would be preferred. So am wondering about cast loads, reliability, accuracy, etc.

Well I have a HF 7x12 mini lathe and I have done TONS with it. Nearly every project I do lately, seems to end up with at leat one part coming off the lathe. My only regret, is it isn't bigger.

From a leftie that's right eye dominant, the SMARTEST thing you can do is get used to shooting left handed, with which ever gun you plan to hunt. First off it gives you the option of shooting game from any angle, and it will actually be a clearer shot since your left eye is dominant. You'll be surpr...

I just checked and apparently they do not do mail order :( . I have found a few reasonably priced boxes of ammo here and there on the web. None of our stores have them on the shelves more than a few hours after they arrive. One local big 5 sporting goods, opens at 10AM, but they are lined up at 8AM ...

If you took off the "8" in the price I might be able to save up for one. Pretty amazing, some peoples talents.

Sounds like you need a dog in the back yard. Glad they didn't get your boat. Nah, just get one of these from Florida, and keep meat scraps around the boat. Next visit they'll get a REAL surprise. A very deserving one for thieves, I might add. http://ts2.mm.bing.net/th?id=H.4640687438889013&pid=...

While I don't think this thing will replace a spotting scope (kinda hard to lug the camera stuff in the hills to look long range for game) it goes well beyond a "security camera". I too, thought that's all ya needed, but when you look at the whole pkg, you see there's the software with it ...

We just saw it tonight, we both (wife and I) both really liked it. And yes there is a hot blonde in it, in her undies for a short scene.

Recoil is a very subjective thing. FELT RECOIL is different. I can shoot my '06 all day, with the factory padding, but at the end of the day my cheek hurts, but not my shoulder. It does not cause me to flinch and my groups show it, BUT, that said I CHOOSE not to shoot it that way. Why? Because while...

Sore shoulder, Condolences, welcome to MY world. Talk about being irritated. I went to a gun shop once in Nevada, and they wouldn't even let me TOUCH their guns. "You're from CA, you can't buy them anyway" It was a rifle I was considering for purchase at home. THAT attitude of his makes me...

That kind of talent is well beyond words. I don't think I could even "dream" about making something that nice.

A lot of times you can dimple the bottom of the dovetail to tighten it up. Also you can tap the ears down to tighten it up. But if it's angled, I think the sight would lean if be bent the ears down. Nothing special needed to silver solder, just the proper flux and solder, and a propane torch. You m...

Saw a Rossi levergun on the rack at a local Big 5 store the other day, and it got me wondering how good they are. These were pistol caliber, and am not even sure of model number.

Well, my two cents worth. I had one (the Savage heavy barrel) when I lived in a windy area and it was worthless. Honestly. I became annoyed quickly with how fast the thing lost accuracy to fouling and with a shot at 50+yds and a 15 kt wind, it was unpredictable. I sold it and got a 22 WMR, and am ha...

Since you've already done the slice n dice on the stock, I would look into something like the Benelli design with some sort of shock absorber system built in. Would work great on a scattergun with no scope eye relief issue to be concerned about. Not really sure if there are after market versions but...

The mini 14 Target is capable of sub MOA, I know i own one, but it is awkward and unwieldy as a defense weapon. If it's the older mini's 3-4" will be the norm, and the newer ones will usually be 2-3" but some are better, depending on ammo. If he wants 1.5" or better all the time, he's...

I was in 72-75 and all I ever saw were 20 rounders. Never knew a 30 rounder existed then. Even then we were told to only load 18, at least in boot camp, after that we always loaded 20.

We used M14 pouches though. Kinda an odd transition the military does.
