Re: Drive In Church Services...

A couple weeks ago after attending our church service online I told my wife that churches would need to get creative, a large part of the service is the offering, without passing the offering plate churches cannot keep the lights on in their large gymnasiums and sanctuaries.

Browning experts needed
About a year ago I sold a LNIB Browning B92 in 44mag It was the model without the saddle ring. I never fired it much but it was an incredibly smooth action This week I was told by a friend that he spotted a used BROWNING 1892 in 45 Colt. I am not familiar with this. I was under the impression that t...

Some that are paranoid will not reveal the serial number.
If you buy a gun in an alley from a guy that starts the conversation with “pssssssst...you wanna buy a gun?” You may not want anyone to see the serial number

A properly functioning hydraulic pump provides both pressure and volume. If the walls of the pump are scored you will get volume but not the pressure. I have also seen a bad Cupler between the motor and pump behave like this

I just happened onto a Win 1885 Highwall in 45/70. My first impression is I like the feel better than a Ruger NO.1
My question is when reloading, is the action as strong?
I seriously doubt I would ever push the 45/70 hard as I would rather go with another caliber than shoot max loads
Just wondering
