Nice bear, nice rifle!

Very nice!

I had planned to submit a target. However, the wife disapproved my request to go to the range stating that I should attend a family wedding with her instead. High hopes to participate in the next match.

I bought my daughter a Stoeger 410 Coach Gun for her first gun. Both barrels are FULL Choke and it patterns pretty nice out to 25 yards. It is definitely something that I am confident would be suitable for her for a home defense with the modern special loadings available. NOT TO MENTION ALOT OF FUN!

This one is the "Type II" unit that runs on JP4, JP5, JP8, Kerosene, Gasoline or Diesel as well as wood or coal. I imagine you know, but some readers may not know, that switching to wood from liquid fuels sometimes causes catastrophic house fires. The carbon coating the stack can reach ig...

Does the motor draw its water from the watering tank to build its steam?

Glad to see you back! Good luck with your health and hope you get that wood pile stacked up soon, your winter is likely not far away.

Enjoyed your post!

They are a PITA when you start priming brass. I throw them away, but I have plenty of large primer brass.

No offence to anyone, but we really should stop spreading rumors, especially about our firearms related lives. I don't think I'm the odd man out here and there are others that tire of "I heard..." bad news about guns and all associated with them as 99% are just rumors. When a rumor deals ...

Growing up, we had a 1941 B Model. For those unfamiliar, it was equipped with a hand clutch and the way you started it, it had a pitcock valve on each of the engine cylinders. You would open those valves and then spin the drum mounted on the side of the engine. Once it was running you closed the val...

I don't see this as a rumor at all. We have experienced ammo shortages and record gun sales following the last two elections. Why should this election be any different? Especially if Hillary gets in! .22LR is just now making it back on the shelves with regularity. Pipe bombs and pressure cooker bomb...

Past history of abuse, 900k in insurance, and being 64.....thinking he is more smart.........sure outweighs the stupidity of putting a loaded gun into a car and pointing it in the direction of another human being....no brainer here..........guilty.

I guess I should have said that it isn't worth 10000 of my dollars.

IMO, it is overpriced. If CMP ever gets the 1911s that have been in storage, I suspect it will knock the market on the older 1911s.

Sending prayers up that God give you a few more of life's pleasures and moments! Keep up the fight!

Glad you are still around, best of luck at rebuilding your collection. I sold a S&W 586 (Nickel) that was in excellent condition. I was thrilled for the price I got at the time. Unfortunately S&W stopped producing the 586 a short time later and the prices have skyrocketed. I haven't seen ano...

Pretty sure all vehicles 2009 and newer now have a black box type tracker other than OnStar. It does get OLD getting those messages trying to sell you a service.

And the 125s are lethal to 500M, so it's not a complete dog. It beats the snot out of the 300blk in any barrel length both in trajectory and power. the BLK at 300 is a mortar from any barrel length. (btw max for a 300 is 16, after that it slows down). My apologies then, I interpreted the comment ab...

horsesoldier03

I prefer the 5.56 over the 300 BLK as well. However your ballistics are a little low. Supersonic velocities are close to 2200 for the 110 and 125 grains.

Blaine, I have built 4 ARs now, all Palmetto State Armory. All have been completed for less than $550. All have fired reliably with NO MISFIRES or FTF or FTE for over 500. Prices are going up, and will only get higher if HiLIARy is elected and unfortunately that seems highly likely. My FIL (age 74) ...

Reminds me of the time my DAD told me and my brother he wanted us to wash the car inside and out!

He sure wasn't too proud of us when he seen me with a water hose and a scrub brush washing the dash and front seats! It was a 67 Chevy 2 door Impala. My brother and I were about 5 and 8 at the time.

horsesoldier03

Very Nice!

horsesoldier03

You pretty much know for certain that a CHEAP new Lever is going to run close to 5 bills. You can bet that the gun you are looking at is a higher quality than what is being pushed out the door these days. I would make a reasonable offer and be prepared to pay the asking price if needed.

+1 on a blank load for a BP Pistol. I have used 20 grains of P- pyrodex or FFFG BP and then top off the cylinder with cream of wheat and packed tight. This is a Blank Load used by reenactors.

Enjoyed the chuckle!

If you are still in the area that your family is from, some communities have small museums that would love to take them on loan or donation in memory of your brothers name. If you search for a forum for military memorabilia I am sure they will all bring top dollar.

The Magazine will likely just file for bankruptcy, CEOs will get their big bonuses, and they will open another Magazine and get a whole new subscription base of subscribers to rip off. This has become the new American Business Model.

Had a friend that owned an 06 takedown as well. I shot it a few times. It was a nice shooter. No clue on value but it did impress me as a rifle that I would buy if I ever found one for sale. His also had the express flip up sights.

When it comes to Self Defense, one would be wise to go with what works for them and not worry about what everyone else is doing!

Of course, NOT worrying about what everyone else is doing is the best answer for a lot of decisions.

horsesoldier03

Just my opinion here, but I have a hard time comparing anything Marlin is producing today to being anywhere near the quality of the rifles produced during the JM marked barrels. The rifles have a poor quality of bluing if you could even call it that and the stocks are no longer Black Walnut. IMO, ma...

A HENRY Levergun or the Pump model.

horsesoldier03

$499 isn't bad for a quality gun that they don't make anymore! You can guarantee that if they used the same manufacturing process, quality parts and craftsmanship to build a rifle like that today, the price would be near $1000.

My favorite was not knowing how to ride a horse but how to saddle a horse. I have always held to the rule that if you want to know if someone can ride, throw them a rope halter and have them get their own horse and tack him out.

***REAL MAN RULES*** As written by Richard Mann Carry a knife. Always. The only time you should not have a knife is when you are naked, in a bed or when you’re swimming.

Good to know, thanks for sharing his insight! This is likely the most logical explanation that I have seen provided.

horsesoldier03

Everything that could would have to pass you. No one would want to drive behind you with that as their view!

Too much powder, not enough barrel! I purchased a .22 LR/Mag combo pistol for my daughter. It is a great pistol, however, when shooting the .22mags, I can see the bullet when it shoots. I cannot see the .22 LR. Personally I think the .22 MAG needs a longer barrel to burn all the powder and fully app...

12 ga Winchester Model 37 Single Shot. Unfortunately it was stolen at deer camp while I was out hunting! Pretty sure I know who did it but was never able to prove it!

Somehow I envision a barrel with that ugly Brasso residue in the grooves! I guess it might work but definitely other cleaners designed for the job that do it better. I know 100% for certain that Brasso does an excellent job shining up copper pipes in a latrine!

I have built two ARs so far using this lower build kit. The trigger is MILSPEC which means you shouldn't have to worry about a discharge if it is dropped. One of them came out excellent with about 6 lbs pull and no creep or over travel. The other is about 6 lbs but has slight creep and no over trave...

Great Job! I always love to see deer harvested with frontloaders!

I recently built a PSA with a 416R Stainless Barrel for $420 complete minus sights. I mounted a Vortex 1-4x24 scope on it. When I went to sight it in, I was very pleased to see the 1st three rounds touching. I dumped the remaining 17 rounds of the magazine into a hole that measured less than 1"...

As much as I like my AR, there is nothing handier than a levergun carbine in a pistol caliber!

Compared to this 1860 Henry on Gunbroker, you missed a real bargain! You best go back and scoop it up!
