    Slavia ZVP pistol

    I have one. Picked it up many years ago and still like new condition. I have always admired how smooth the action is and shooting. A great little for shooting indoors during the winter months. When not shooting I leave the breech cracked open so not to have the leather seal constantly...

    45 year old Hodgdon 4198 powder

    I pulled the cap off and peaked inside. The powder was black, slid and moved inside like sand in an hour glass. No offensive smell. Hardly any smell at all. Maybe a slight hint of ether. But then, summer allergies wont let me smell anything anyway. Charlie, why do you want to stay above...

    A pair of eights.

    Here are a couple of pictures of Randall made knives popular model 8s. The one on top is a very early model 8 and is in the style of the knife that Francis Gary Powers had when he was shot down in his U-2 plane over Russia on May 1, 1960. Here is a picture of the early model 8 over an early...

    Bond Arms

    I have built several Derringers from kits. Jukar for one. The Jukar is a shooter, a short pistol that has over kill on the stock. The Traditions look like the same pistol. You need to find pictures of original Deringers and derringers and try sculp the stock to look like the originals. The...

    More NRA…

    I could be wrong, I hope I read it wrong. But WLP will get his full salary if removed, resign or retires from office for the remainder of his life. Anyone else hear about this? 'loose edit: I think I saw this on an investigation of the NRA's financial slide on cable TV. It seems like the...

    Bond Arms

    Very nice collection. I normally do not drool looking at a picture. Your collection of fine Bonds and barrels will make mouths wet for sure. Ever since I bought my first Bond I have been searching the web and libraries reading everything I could about derringers. I found this excellent book...

    Found a 1929 Winchester 55 takedown in 30 WCF

    That could be it Jim. If I'm not mistaken Carbona bluing was placing parts in something like charcoal heated to fume in a caustic atmosphere. That does not even sound like it would work. Thanks 'loose

    Benchmade wouldn't return switchblade after servicing

    There are many sources found on the web about counterfeit knives and specifically Benchmade knives. I was made to believe that on the required return form Benchmade states that any knife found to be counterfeit will be destroyed. Same goes for owners who want Benchmade to authenticate a knife...

    Found a 1929 Winchester 55 takedown in 30 WCF

    I'm not a gunsmith. I work on my own firearms but it does not pay the bills. I assumed that the barrel and action was always blued together. Thinking about it, take down firearms could have different bluing processes for the barrels and actions. Thats why the bluing on the actions are gone...

    Found a 1929 Winchester 55 takedown in 30 WCF

    The best I can make out it. The number 55 lever action was given the number after the model 54. The 54 being a bolt action parent of the model 70 was introduced in 1925 one year before the 55. The single shot .22lr 55 could have been on the drawing board or expected to be released in the year...

    Polish M44

    The import marks could be anywhere. Should be on receiver but I have seen some on the barrel shank. Most recent import marks were done with a laser showing the importer and new serial number. There were several companies importing them. Laser imprinting will be like a zillion tiny dots...
