It definitely looks cool, but that’s about where it stops. No history, no quality at that price, no use in today’s world… just no.

I have a rifle with that setup and I could never get it to turn. I was putting more force on it than I should have and was concerned about bending the barrel or causing damage to the lug. It’s almost like it’s pressed in like a bearing race or something along those lines. Be careful with it.

I struggle to see the point for a lot of the new stuff that’s coming out. This is one of those. Is it significantly better than the Valkyrie? I don’t have a Valk barrel, or an arc barrel either, so maybe I’m just missing out on something. I do want a superspeed small bore, but realistically I...

The titanium guns bring a pretty solid penny. That seems CHEEEEP. Of course verify that, but in my book that one was worthy of the argument about un-necessary spending and whatnot.

A .41 special built like a charter bulldog except not made by charter would be great. Seems right up the Taurus/Rossi alley. S&W would put it in a L frame and charge too much. Would be somewhere in the ballpark of a 10mm auto revolver. As a 10mm fan I would happily get down with that.

There’s a butt for every seat. Not my thing visually but that’s a heck of a gun. Good combination of all the things. Right caliber, right barrel length, right everything, I’m just not sold on the two-tone thing for revolvers. If it came from the factory that way I would bet it has notable...

Yes. Not depriming, but trying to hold flat based bullets square enough to seat them. The pinch hard and fast.

That whole product line with the open top slides are great guns. Generally pretty soft shooting unless you’re getting into the tiniest of them and even then they are soft compared to similarly sized pistols of the same chambering. The one I want I haven’t seen in person for about a decade, and...

I do, but they just aren’t nearly as accurate. Accurate is fun. The fact that I’m loading less accurate rounds intentionally just doesn’t interest me and it’s just like loading cheap 9mm blasting ammo. Just not a whole lot of fun to load it.

No, single. The long pointy bullets don’t want to get along with the feeding mechanism in my rifle and it tends to hang up. I can use light for caliber pointy bullets, but I can’t use anything heavier than about 150gr without it causing issues. I havent taken the feeding contraption apart yet...

I load 30-30, but shooting it in a marlin takes a lot of fun out of the loading. Can’t use most bullets unless you load them into the chamber by hand making the rifle essentially a single shot. Seems I just load 3030 like I load 9mm, cheap blasting fodder.

I don’t understand the o/u setup. It’s a shotgun classic from far enough back, but in rifles it seems more modern, and if a person is going more modern it seems like a bolt rifle makes more sense in all ways.

What you got against ol Ching Lee? The Fat Electrician did a feature on him and it sounded like the dude did a lot of good but even for TFE the story seemed a bit over the top.

I have used it for years. When my current can is gone though, I’m changing. The rem-oil is too light of an oil and seems to just disappear into thin air. I want something that’s a little better at staying where I put it.

With the volume of scams both buying and selling these days it’s hard not to be nervous about an online deal. I haven’t bought online in a long while, and when I do I only do so when I can find the seller in multiple ways… brick and mortar gun shop is my preferred way, even if I’m buying through...
