I said I can read, never said I could type.

SJPrice

Way off track. Any other guesses?

SJPrice

Who said "Using a gun for self defense is not violence, it is intelligence"?

SJPrice

I may be wrong, but I think XS makes a ghost ring that straddles the bolt on the rear of the receiver for a Browning 1886. I have one on a model 92 and if works well and does not look out of place.

SJPrice

There's one in my safe....I tend to reach for the 1895GS, the 1895 Cowboy, or the Win. 1886......I like my 45-70s a bunch, but that 30WCF is just as good (effective, if you will) and shoots flatter without flattening my shoulder........... yep, one in my safe as well. A Marlin 1893 made in 1902. I ...

I just finished reading "Forty Years With The 45-70" again for the 5th or 6th time. I learn something new every time I read it. It occurred to me to ask if there is a book like this that cover the 30-30?

SJPrice

+1 for the elk horn grips from Eagle. Raj and his folks at Eagle do a fantastic job and you will be more than pleased. The nice thing about real antler grips be they stag, elk or moose is the way they age from your handling them. Over time and the more you handle them they will develop a good lookin...

SJPrice

okay, but does anyone know what happened to the guy?

SJPrice

Has anyone heard any more about the person. Joe Calanchini, who was arrested for carrying his guns in cases into his hotel in Denver during the DNC. The S.S. made a big deal out of it and the press reported it and then nothing. I can not find any updates on this story?

SJPrice

Barnes Triple X all copper bullets expand extremely well, penetrate deeply and lose little if any weight. They are pretty pricey, but they do perform as advertised.

SJPrice

The Smith Enterprise buckhorn is very well made and worth the money if you can find one. I have one on my 1886 Browning SRC and it works great with the green fiber front I made for it.

SJPrice

I use one and they work great. I suggest you look at the green laser model. I had the red and I took it back and went with the green. It shows up in daylight and makes sighting much easier. I would not however use one to change my sight settings in the field. They will save a lot of shots to get you...

SJPrice

I had mine done about a year ago, but I went a slightly different route. I had my master eye corrected with Lasik for distance and left my other eye alone for reading and close work. It is called mono-vision. The mind adapts in a few days to the change and you find you can see both distance and clos...

SJPrice

I still say it is stupid and irresponsible even if it is staged. It is stupidity like this that gives similar ideas to someone to try to emulate what they think is funny. Unfortunately stupid is contagious.

SJPrice

I appears to me that the front sight block is welded or soldered on the barrel on the SRC's. On the rifles with the octagon barrels it is a dovetailed grove which would have been easier to deal with. A word of warning about the Freedom Arms fiber optic sight blades. Just like the Freedom Arms guns t...

SJPrice

I really liked this gun except for three items. The first was the glossy Browning finish. It has been stripped and the figured walnut has a nice warm Tru Oil finish now. The second was the trigger and action were heavy and rough. Steve Young worked some nice magic on those and they are great now. Th...

I hope that after the camera was off she went over and picked it up again and threw it down on the concrete. No, she should throw him down on the concrete. Remember it is not the guns fault. Guns don't act stupid, people do. Nice way to screw up a person from being able to learn to use a tool that ...

I must really be old and or a levergunner. I thought this was a discussion about the difference between Alaska and Arkansas

SJPrice

if it is in decent condition, jump all over it.

SJPrice

17's are fine as long as you limit your shots. I prefer the 22 mag for better assurance of quick humane kills out past 100 yds if you are set on using a rimfire. If you get into centerfire rifle now the world really opens up.

SJPrice

Why is it okay to lump politicians into a group and not okay to lump other groups into a group. Referring to all politicians as worthless or worse is no different that referring to an ethnic group as lazy or freeloaders, or gangsters or drunks or etc. Politicians are people just like you and I. Quit...

SJPrice

Midway info says "out of stock, no backorder"?

I bet Nate Kiowa Jones can pop in with some useful info here.

SJPrice

Will do, as soon as I get the Stag grips re-fit to the new round butt frame.

SJPrice

Can we go back to discussing lever guns now? Please!

SJPrice

I recently sent my Freedom Arms M83 475 Linebaugh in for a couple of modifications. I wanted a round butt and an action job with a 3 pound trigger. I sent the gun in on a Wednesday via UPS next day. I called on Tuesday, a few days later and ordered a few green fiber optic sight blades for both the M...

what a waste of a good forum.

SJPrice

I met Richie once. He is a clueless idiot.

SJPrice

My first shotgun was a Christmas gift from my Mom & Dad when I was 11. It was an Ithica 66 20 gauge with a 30 inch barrel and a full choke. I shot a lot of game with that gun, including my first white tail with a 20 gauge slug. Man did that thing kick with slugs or 3 inch magnum duck loads. It w...

you have a lot of options: 1. you can place his paws in a concrete block and take him out for a one way boat ride on the lake. 2. you can put him in the foundation of a new building. 3. you can take him to Indiana and bury him in a corn field. 4. you can take him to the butcher district and drop him...

That cat looks mighty sleek and well fed. What do you suppose are the odds it was an escaped pet?

SJPrice

My Browning 1886 SCR is 8 lbs :x. It needs to be fixed. I will happily say it again. You need to talk to Steve here on the forum. He worked magic on mine for me. After he smoothed the action, cleaned up and lightened the trigger I was finally able to get the groups it was capable of. Mine will hold...

SJPrice

I guess I am spoiled by my 1886 trigger that was lightened and smoothed by Nate Kiowa Jones aka Steve Young. It breaks clean at 3.2 pounds. Steve sure does a fine trigger and action job. Mine is a Browning High Grade SRC

I received this in my email today and it seems to check out. Did you know that 47 countries have reestablished their embassies in Iraq?

Actually I just finished reading "Monty Walsh" If you like either one of the movies, you will love the book.

I would suggest one of two breeds for what you are talking about. One would be a well bred Brittany and the other would be a well bred Wirehaired Pointing Griffon. Both are great bird hunters and are more personable and affectionate as pets. There may be better producers out there like English Point...

I too will and do boycott McDonalds, and KFC and many others as well for their Anti-Rights activity. Namely their support of those who wish to take away my 2nd Amendment rights. That is the only reason though. If any of them was pro-2nd amendment I would support them irregardless of their other poli...

I think his two best works are "Sixguns" and "Hell I Was There" his autobiography. Unfortunately "Hell I Was There" is out of print, but you can still find a used copy for sale if you search for it. One thing to remember is that we have some of the finest single actions...

Spitzer. The same fellow who almost brought about the end of Smith & Wesson.

homefront, those sure aren't corn fed. Thanks for the great shots OI

no worries, in three days the crucified are free to rise again. Happy Easter to all.

SJPrice

I was considering this project, but I was wondering if anyone here has gone that route and how did it turn out for you. Also what possessed you to have the conversion done in the first place.

SJPrice

Creeped me out too, but I showed it to a friend who is a paraplegic and he wants one with a seat, a fuel cell instead of a gasoline engine and a joystick. Seems to think it would be a great way to get back to hunting grouse, pheasant and quail. He may have something there.

And Chicago with Daly's Gestapo typically ignore Federal rulings and Supreme court decisions. They think they are above the law.

if you wrap anything, reins, ropes etc. around any part of your body and attach the other end to a horse or cattle, please update your will first and leave me your sixgun, levergun and saddle.

it actually plays out like this. Each side gets 30 minutes to present their case and most of that time will be spent by answering questions from the justices. The attorney general will also be allowed to speak and answer questions. He is given 15 minutes. In this case his 15 minutes will be separate...

All I know is none of the off the shelf strippers would even soften the finish on my 1886 Browning Hi Grade. I tried four different ones to no avail.

SJPrice

Good On You!

Add a bit if you want that Browning gloss stripped away and an oil finish in it's place. Add a bit and then some. Have you ever tried to remove that Browning gloss finish? I finally took my 1886 Hi Grade to a professional refinishing house. They did it for a reasonable quoted price and then told me...
