    "Screw on" muzzle brake stuck from factory!

    Hi all. I have a new Mossberg 4x4 rifle with a supposed "screw on muzzle brake," which I do not intend to use. Anyway, when I get her out of the box and attempted to remove the brake in order to put on the supplied thread protector, the thing wouldn't budge. I've tried everything, heating it...

    Rossi 1892 - at wits end with this thing!

    Thanks for the tips and advice, everyone. I'm fascinated by this action, which I probably wouldn't have given much thought to if this hadn't happened. :D

    Rossi 1892 - at wits end with this thing!

    I have a Brazztech/Rossi/Taurus M92 in .357 mag with a problem, and I can't figure out what it is. 0523011535 by voxorganalis2011, on Flickr Looks like the round slips under the ejector as soon as it pops out of the mag tube. It's happened twice now, and the only way I could clear it...

    Yugo Tokarev part interchangeability question

    Hi all. Sent a Yugo M57 out for a Cerakote job and it came back minus the magazine catch (the guy is first-rate and honest, so I believe him when he said he put it in a ziploc baggie with other parts). I don't know if something happened during shipping or what. Can I order a Romanian part...

    Am I reading these pressure signs correctly?

    Thanks for the quick replies, everyone! I'm off to work so further photos will have to wait. I'll definitely back off to the published load of 1.8gr. That extra little margin of error can't hurt! Krochus, I wondered that exact same thing myself, but I'm wondering exactly what I can watch for.

    Am I reading these pressure signs correctly?

    Hi all. I am very new to reloading and think I am seeing some telltale signs of excessive pressure with a load, but I want to run it by you guys to be sure. The load pictured here is a 100gr hard cast DEWC over 1.9 grains of Bullseye, seated flush with the case mouth, .32 Smith and Wesson Long...

    Is my Stevens 311 a good candidate for BP?

    Hi all, I'm the new owner of a Stevens 311 12 gauge and I've got an itch to try some black powder shells. I'm a bit concerned about cleaning the receiver, though. I've heard that they are bloody impossible to take down and reassemble without specialized jigs. Would the receiver even need to...

    Stevens 311 tenite to wood conversion questions

    I just scored a beautiful little Stevens 311 with a Tenite stock in fantastic condition and was wondering if anyone has had any success upgrading the Tenite stock to a Walnut one. In particular, I noticed that Boyd's has finished 311 stocks for sale. Anybody had any luck with them? Will...

    New reloader with a question re wadcutters in the 32 S&W long

    Thanks for the replies, everyone. It looks like Trail Boss is best suited for longer cases like the 32 h&r mag. I could only fit 1.7 grains in without the bullet touching the powder and I'm not eager to find out what happens when the stuff is compressed. :eek: I've loaded 18 cases with...

    New reloader with a question re wadcutters in the 32 S&W long

    My wife and I picked up a pair of Rough Riders in .32 H&R magnum for SASS, and owing to the availability of .32 S&W long brass and .312" bullets we've opted to load those instead of the slightly longer cases. I am wondering if the following load would be safe given that the gun is built to...

    My mail man hates me...

    I think my UPS guy is afraid of me. He used to ring the doorbell and get my signature for ORM-D packages but now he tosses them at the doorstep and walks away briskly. Sometimes he won't even do that, and will just put a "sorry we missed you" sticker on my door without knocking. :rolleyes:

    Washington state residents

    You can watch the Senate hearing live here. Don't have anything hot or liquid in your mouth or hand, though. You may experience an overwhelming urge to throw them at the screen when Senator Kline speaks. :banghead: http://www.tvw.org/media/LiveTemplates/LivePlayer.cfm?evid=2010010151&bhcp=1

    SCOTUS March 02,2010 - Anyone Going to DC?

    When a state is infringing upon the rights of citizens that are guaranteed by the Constitution, it most certainly is the Federal Government's business. Incorporation is a slam dunk, and there is no better time for this case to go before the court.

    renewed love for BP shooting

    "I only use loose powder, even in my in-line. I like physically measuring the load and going through the steps." Same here. I was watching people on the handgun line at the range today quickly shooting off mag after mag after mag and I had to wonder what was going through their heads. Did...

    CA AB 962 signed into law

    Regarding your AR snipe, it's very sad that you're so hung up on cosmetics. The Monsterman Grip/Bullet Button represent the ingenuity and determination of Californians who didn't flee the state when Big Brother tried to grab our guns. And thanks to those people who stayed here to fight, we now...

    Need help developing a blank load

    Unless you can keep the gun under lock and key up until the moment it's fired (and I suggest that YOU should be the one doing the firing) I wouldn't use ANYTHING other than a cap. And even then... take a look at this article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon-Erik_Hexum Hexum got ahold of...

    Mosin Nagant from Big 5

    Cool! You'll love it. They are super-easy to clean. Surplusrifle.com has a lot of great articles on getting that little job done. My recommendations: make an electronic bore cleaner. All it takes is a few dollars' worth of parts and some ammonia. They really do work and are much less...
