    Range hazard

    Maybe it’s just me, but I am not sure I would want to be close enough to this guy to see it happen. I mean heck if I can see it happen I might actually walk away dumber than I already am. I am far from the most accurate or the fastest shot. I would have to leave out of pure embarrassment if...

    Hannity invites Colmes to go shooting with him...

    Despite his support of the Ex-Mayor I for one would love to be invited to go shooting with Hannity. I think it would be fun, and a great chance to pull some of the stuff out that doesn’t see the range often.

    Why a 3D rendering program, and a bored Falcon are bad things to mix:

    No range time yet, Tuesday hopefully. Though I do have some observations: 1. This rifle seems to have a similar problem to CrakerJim in that sometimes the cartridges hang in the magazine. I may have to have a smith look at it after all. 2. The magazine springs seems stiff to me. I guess I...

    JOY and Jubilation! :D :D :D :D My 336 is back from the factory. As I had hopped the 30 day estimate was grossly over done. I must get it to a range soon. The only one I have access too is only 25 yards but it will still let me get a feel for it. Also I am promising all that the ever...

    As far as the Dremel comment goes I can see the fear that would bring with it. Please allow me to assuage your anxiety with the fact that I have no desire to grind, or cut anything inside or outside of my nice new supposedly working firearm. I merely meant that a cloth buffing wheel with a...

    I own a Dremel and jewelers rouge. I bet I can sweeten a few things up right out of the box. I figure they have to do something to make the rifle cost less. I don’t think they used lesser quality materials, but may just a few less minutes of fitting, and maybe not quite as picky about the...

    I for one took the possibility that the W might be a little less looked after at the factory into account when I bought it. My budget wouldn’t allow for a more expensive weapon. So between the price and the fact that I bought it at Wal-Mart I wasn’t terribly surprised that it had to go back to...

    Sniper, That is such a great idea. I will need to get the Blackhawks out when I get my lever back. A .45 and a .357; that ought to be a fun day. You should post back here telling us how it went. Falcon

    I will hang in there. I may need to buy another rifle to have with me while I wait though. :evil: In an odd twist of fate this is the first large bore rifle I have ever purchased. I have 4 now, but this is the first one I bought (inherited the rest), and I am really just learning how to use...

    Nem, I am doing my best to keep my spirit up. I keep praying that they are just inflating the time quote so as not to look bad if they take a long time. I would be very happy to get a hat and my rifle out of the deal. Heck I would be happy to get my rifle back. Besides getting mad or...

    First, let me say thanks for the words of encouragement on my new rifle. I called Marlin today and they say they checked it in last Wednesday, April 11th, 10 days after it was sent in. According to the rather pleasant lady I spoke with they currently have a thirty (30) day turnaround on...

    Well, I would post pictures of the 336W .30-30 I bought at Wal-Mart on April 1st, but it had to go back to the factory due to a cracked screw in the receiver on April 2nd:fire: . I don’t have it back yet, nor have I fired it yet, but I do look forward to it. Reading through this thread has...

    Why are gun enthusiasts so against fighting for their rights?

    I am new to this whole political activism thing. I have owned a gun since my eighteenth birthday. I went over ten years without having a range to go to so I didn't touch the guns I owned. For the last nine months I have had a great Indoor range that I can go to, and it has reawakened my...

    new gun saved a life in one day possibly

    I pray he will be ok. On a less serious note: I knew there was a good reason for a child-like fascination with shooting, now I have proof!
