I'm infatuated with my 1954 S&W K-22 5-screw Masterpiece. Smooth as silk action and accuracy that makes me look good. Its my favorite range toy....
I like my Sig P238 and have carried it since I bought back in 2014. I think there are just as good or better choices for a CCW. Everyone has their...
Last year I inherited a nice 1939 30-30 Winchester '94 from an aging relative that he has had his whole life. It was my first lever action, and I...
Lubing is important. A variety of lubes will work. But regular cleaning and relubing is more important.
My first thought is to clean and lube it, find some ammo and shoot it. That crown may need to be addressed to hit a 50 yd target. Enjoy it for...
I recommend Renaissance Wax. It's clear and essentially remains clear or nearly invisible, as compared to drying "white". It is ph neutral so...
Win 231 or HP-38 meters well and have slightly larger volume per charge than some other possible powders, but don't be overly concerned with that....

Budrowbob, glad to read your report on exercising your carbine. Import carbines are meant to be enjoyed and shot like you hate them. i have two...
I managed to not screw up any of my gun projects today. How's that you say? Well, with the nice weather I decided that the yard needed my...
Dragonfly, that's a nice review of a handgun that I am not familiar with. Thanks. I tend to enjoy old school (steel and wood) firearms, especially...
Pretty impressive shooting in that video. At 70 y.o. I'm happy hitting metal gongs at 200...about 50% of the time.
I learned much about my 5 screw K 22 from reading the comments and photos on this thread. Thank you.
Dave, congrats on your K-22 Masterpiece. I inherited one identical to yours but mine was shipped from the factory in November 22, 1955 (per the...
