I understand that there is a spring kit for the 63 that will take some of the kick out of it.
One of the things that I like about (true) Makarovs is their simplicity. There is something like 33 parts, approximately half that of other autoloaders. For that reason, I've taken swapped out a...
Are there any firearms manufacturers producing weapons within the United States whose workers are not unionized?
I know that Colt, Remington, and Winchester are all union shops.
Ruger?
Henry?
Smith & Wesson?
Others?
What about ammo manufacturers? Winchester and Remington (see above)...
Thanks for the replies!
This site, http://www.fcps.edu/islandcreekes/ecology/eastern_gray_squirrel.htm, lists three different snakes as gray squirrel preditors.
Upon your recommendations, I resolve to cook up some gray squirrel this fall...I guess I shouldn't knock what you havn't tried...
Assuming that you're not going to eat the meat (that's for another post), is there a reason to hunt squirrels, outside of the sport?
Deer and Rabbit: Meat, thinning the herd
Woodchucks: Pest control to keep them from digging everything up
Opossum: Keep them out of the trash cans
Any...
I have shot many 32 long rounds out of my Nagant. I also bought a 32acp cylinder for it and usually shoot that caliber. It is light for bowling pins, but I have shot 32 H&R magnum at the out of it (and knocked some off the table!). The cases of all these rounds swell in the Nagant cylinder, but...
This might seem silly to some, but here goes.
I don't carry regularly but I'm looking for something to carry pistols around the farm.
Does anyone use a belt holster, attached to a belt or briefcase strap through the loops, and carried over the shoulder while hunting/hiking.
I'm looking...
Why tie up a barrel? Good question (note the first word in the thread title).
I can easily obtain a laser bore sight and have never used a laser sight before. I thought I would try this before I did a more permanent solution on this or my 870.
Thanks, all, for the information. I never knew that the barrels of a SxS were not parallel.
Thanks to you guys, I didn't have to wear a path from the firing line to the paper plate to figure it out!
Ratshooter: I figured that the bore sight would need to be pretty shock proof and/or fit tight inside the bore.
TAB: I guess I don't understand your post. Not parallel?
I just came by a double barreled shotgun...my first after a couple of pump guns.
Is there any reason that you couldn't put a laser bore sight in the left barrel and shoot a slug out of the right?
I'm just wondering if there is any downside of this before I: 1) buy a bore sight and 2) go...
Clean-up is on the slate for this weekend. I'll probably use break-free & a toothbrush, which strikes me as milder than Hoppe's #9.
I was kind of apprehensive about removing the stock to do this, but the screw behind the hammers appears to be aftermarket, so I think I'll be OK.
After I...
Does anyone have any information about this pistol or know a good source for information?
My father passed this pistol on to me over the weekend. The only marking that I can see on it is the "1835" carved on the stock. I understand that my great grandmother might have brought this pistol over...
Marklbucla: I got it at www.budsgunshop.com. For some reason, it came up in the search feature but did not come up in the big S&W handgun list.
BCR: I'll give some different hand positions a try...I'm still at the start of the learning curve and you give good advice. Good tip on the Wolff...
I got some great advice on this purchase in this thread: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=440595&highlight=lifetime
Below are some pix of my new S&W Model 63. I only did a half hour range session today to get it somewhat dialed in...so I went with single action only. Sweet single...
