I would pass on this movie. It is very anti-religious. http://www.catholicleague.org/catalyst.php?year=2007&month=October&read=2322 A film called "The Golden Compass" opens December 7. It is based on the first book of a trilogy titled His Dark Materials. The author of this children...

I would like to know who made it as well. If anyone has this old edition of Guns & Ammo perhaps they could look it up and tell us.

How about a triple threat revolver in 357, 22RF, and 410. I'd like to handle one of these.

Be sure and checkout Bud Gun Shop. I purchased my Springfield M1A loaded with stainless barrel from them back at Christmas. They have the best prices on the net. Even with transfer fee and shipping they beat all my local guys by several hundred dollars. Sad considering I always try to buy local but ...

Thanks to the post here about the Cabelas Flyer, and after several days of locating one. I was able to get an Marlin 1895 410 shotgun. I have been looking for one for about 2 years. Here's a quick pic of the gun. Better pics to follow. http://i423.photobucket.com/albums/pp311/dsmith512/100_1592a.jpg...

I just purchased a brand new in the box BH 30 carbine for $396. I just gotta get use to the 7.5 inch barrel instead of the 5.5 that my 45 has.

I did not notice mine being that loud. I think my Springfield XD 45 is way louder.

You could contact Dave Chen at The Gun Store in Cedar Park. Dave handles many tactical and 1911 weapons. He could probably point you to several reputable gunsmiths in the area.

or phone 512-335-5534.

Man that sucks. However you can get a Winchester 88 stock from here: http://www.gun-parts.com/winchesterstocks/ Granted it is not your original but could be made to look nice. They have several varieties including walnut and laminates. Here's what they have http://www.gun-parts.com/winchesterrifle/W...

dsmith512

The stock has been fitted with a butt pad and the front sight hood is missing. For that kinda of money it would have to be brand new pristine in the box and signed by Douglas Murray

I love my pump. Glad I got it. I am happy with my Thunderbolt too.

I'm guessing quality issues and production costs are the reasons. First the Gauchos, now the 22 rifles, I bet the Thunderbolts are gone to.

dsmith512

I like mine. All stainless. No issues.

If you want one you had better hurry. Rumor has it the Taurus is quitting production of them, just like the Gaucho.

dsmith512

Call them up. I bought an 1895 guide gun and the stock had a micro crack on the tang. I gave Marlin a call and they sent me a new stock no charge.

On a Linux system you could use Kexi. This is like MS Access and can even read MS Access data files.

Or use Open Office Spreadsheet.

Good point, perhaps the aperture could be blued with the rest stainless.

I know with everything blued it really stand out on a stainless tang.

I have noticed that many of the Vernier sights have a blued aperture but the scales are in the white.

dsmith512

Does anyone know if any one makes stainless tang sights?

I have several rifles that are stainless including Marlin 1895, EMF 92, Taurus Thunderbolt, and a Taurus 62.

My Taurus 62 has the Taurus tang sight on it but it was offered in blue only.

dsmith512

Yep, it'll be out in August. I placed my order today. I've been waiting for this one for a long time. It was the first TV mini series.

Since time and money are a factor you might consider a couple of these workbench or work stations. They have a bench for tools with drawers and cabinets for storage.

If you have not already definitely get new springs for the Marlin Camp 45. The original spring that shipped with the rifle was designed for the 9mm not the 45acp round. It is just not strong enough to handle the 45acp round. Could lead to a shattered recoil buffer and a cracked stock. You can get re...

Great work ya'll must have done something.

Yep, probably do to that 11lb spring. Replace it if you have not already. Also the heaver spring keeps the smutz from blowing all in your face.

Marlin Customer support is one of the best. I got a new guide gun and it came with a micro crack in the stock. Marlin replaced it N/C.

dsmith512

Get yourself several recoil blocks, if you can find them, as they get fragile and shatter with age. A couple of spare springs might be smart, too. Definitely get new springs for the Marlin Camp 45.
