Bore demensions will only get you close. If you want to know what the true choke is you will need to shoot it. How choke is determined. Choke is determined for all shotguns by the amount of shot it delivers within a 30" circle at 40yds. (1) Cylinder bore-40% (2) Improved cylinder-50% (3) Modifi...

The thread about MODEL 92'S got me to thinking about this. It appears that it means different things to different folks.

What's your view on this?

Almost forgot, Ranch style beans (mix them half with jalapeno half with out) One big onion chopped into big pieces and about as much of your favorite smoke sausage cut into rounds.

I got a PM about this topic asking for my input. From my perspective there is some good info presented here but there is also some that is not so good.
I think this thread should maybe run a bit more before I weigh in. Maybe a few more misconceptions (at least to me) will come out.

at the gun store today i was looking for some 44 specials to shoot in my .44 mag. i ran across a box of .44 Colt cartridges that was sitting with the .44-40 boxes. i asked the sales clerk what is a .44 Colt; he didn't know either. after looking it up on the web, am i correct, the .44 Colt is a shor...

In looking at a Browning 53 on GunBroker, the front sight appears to be dovetailed into the ramp. Dave, is that not the case? I never considered the difficulty of changing the front sight since I'd want a globe front as well. Pete, I use a .357 now, but quite a few of the guys use the 32-20 with no...

Nate Kiowa Jones

So what would someone be looking at to take an old 92 from 32-20 to .357 mag? I have one that's been worked on a lot through the years by the looks of it and it might be a candidate for such a project. If not the old girl is pretty much a parts piece. Would much rather see it shoot again. blackfly ...

They are all made by Uberti. Marked diferent but all the same on the inside.

Buy it from EMF. They have great cutomer service. Plus I know the warranty guy really really well.

Don, Whydontcha just look for a decent 92 in 32-20. With the right loads it's right up there even with this new 327. Plus, I think it feels/balances better than the Marlin. The marlin with it's twin inner and out mag tube and no loading gate just feels too front heavy even for a 20" gun. I have...

How about American Derringer? My Dad got the 357 Mag. version back in the 70's and still has it. Seems like it was built like a bank vault. Did they go under or did quality go TU?

Nate Kiowa Jones

Sounds like an original to me. I would suggest taking a dummy round or two with me to try through the action. There were many of the 25&32 WCF 92's converted back in the 50's and 60's but many of the folks that were doing them didn't have a good understanding of how to adjust the timing for the ...

The frame in the back of the carrier cutout extends down far enough to stop it.

Hi AJ,
Nice looking work. Just looking at it it appears it will only run the shorter stuff correct? To run standard length ammo you would have to change back to the original, right?

Nate Kiowa Jones

Heck Nate don't know, I fondled it for five minutes and never checked the stampings on the barrel. All I was thinking was I wish it was a .44-40, if it was it would be right next to me right now. Action was slicker than snoot on a door knob though! Didn't see a safety of any sorts, 'course it had a...

OI I just can't get worked up about the 327. I can't imagine the earbusting muzzleblast from that thing being very user friendly.

Nate Kiowa Jones

I think the .32 H&R casing might be too small for the action innards. IIRC, the original .25-20 & .32-20 actions had thicker guides, so those smaller cartridges could feed - along with a smaller feed hole bored through the front of the receiver for the mag tube. Correct, Rebarreling is not ...

Ok Gents, found a '92 Winchester today chambered for .357 with a Lyman tang sight. Wood is actually superb and the iron is 98%, cresent butt, and very slick action. I'm not a .357 affecionado, but the guy wants $650 for it, what do you think? Is it a converted original or one of the current Miruko ...

Best derringers ever made, and that's no hype. :) Very large, heavy & bulky as a concealed carry proposition, but if you insist the quality & reliability are there. Denis I 2nd that. Well made but not my idea of a practical CCW. It's going to be about the same weight and almost the same siz...

Nate Kiowa Jones

The 66 and 73 has a built in ammo gage. Open the action, turn the gun over and lay a round in the window where the carrier rides up and down. If it doesn't fit, it's too long. It should be about 1/16 but not more than 1/8th inch short of not fitting. This length works best because the 73, 66, and 60...

Wow, nicely done. Did you have to grind out the underside of the XS to do that or does it come from XS for that type of fit?

The XS work without grinding but the safety has to be removed and filled.

Ok guys, I wasn't going to bring this up right now but I'm getting closer to having this one into production.

I'm not keen on adjusting them by bending the front sight but if you are going to do that here's how to do it with some control. You will need a decent vise with some hard pads. Aluminum angle will work. Now clamp the sight in the padded vise and use the grip to gently push or pull as needed. Now as...

One thing that comes to mind. Did you actually see the round as it was chambering? Are you absolutely sure that the bullet was still in the crimp. Are you sure that the bullet didn't get pushed back into the case. A bullet that's pushed far enough back into the case will definitely pike pressure.
