    Gunsmith Question

    I absolutely detest when I call any type of business to inquire about an order or service and they are rude because they said they would call me. I've lost track of the amount of times a business has told me they would call, then they don't. One of my biggest pet peeves.

    Winchester Model 97 frame trouble

    I would keep the Winchester as a safe piece, and get a Norinco recreation for shooting.

    Snub Nose 45 Colt ???

    Funny, I also have a 1917 at a gunsmith right now getting snub nosed and the hammer bobbed. I also might have him make a set of grips for it.

    Barrel for a Colt 1917

    Hey guys, I'm looking to make a snub nose 1917 and I'm trying not to chop the original barrel, I'd rather replace it with a spare. On gunbroker, right now, there is a New Service barrel in 45 Colt. Would this fit and work fine or do I need a 45 auto barrel?

    Norinco 1887 safe loads

    I love it so far. I've put some dove shot through it and some 00 buck. I was really just curious about the magnum because I accidentally picked up the wrong box. I also got some 000 buck I'm a little nervous about firing.

    Norinco 1887 safe loads

    Hey guys, I just picked up a Norinco 1887 lever shotgun and I'm curious what kind of loads they can handle. Should I just stick to regular 2 3/4 shells or would 2 3/4 magnums be ok?

    From the Dept. of "you gotta be kiddin me"

    I'm very curious what lawmakers actually say when you present them with the fact that criminals don't follow the law. If they did follow the law they wouldn't be criminals and you wouldn't have to worry about them.

    The Great CMP Foul

    I doubt it. CMP orders have been through the roof since the election. They are like 4 or 5 months behind in orders.

    How about some recovered bullet pics

    7.62x54 round shot from my M44. I had lined up like 20 of these zip disks and shot them from about 30 yards away. Round got stuck in the last one.
